Key Features

• Total Automation: The system provides end-to-end automation, from sample sorting and complete blood count (CBC) analysis to smear preparation and digital slide reading.
• Integrated Testing: The CAL 8000 is designed to perform multiple tests from a single blood sample tube, including CBC, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), SAA, and HbA1c, within a single streamlined workstation.
• High Throughput: The system can be configured with up to four Mindray BC-6800 Automated Hematology Analyzers, with each unit capable of up to 125 CBC tests per hour, making it suitable for high-volume demands.
• Intelligent Software: The system uses labXpert software, which can automatically validate test results, manage quality control data, and flag "suspected" samples for expert review, thereby reducing manual intervention and improving efficiency.
• Advanced Slide Making: The integrated Mindray SC-120 slide maker & stainer module automates the smearing process by adjusting blood volume, angle, and speed to ensure high-quality, consistent blood smears.
• Flexible Layout: The modular design allows for flexible configuration (e.g., L-shaped designs) to optimize laboratory space and workflow without requiring significant changes to the existing lab infrastructure. 

Components

The CAL 8000 system can be combined with other Mindray modules to form a total automation solution: 

• TM-1000 Sample Processing System: Automates bulk sample input, registration, and intelligent track scheduling, with a capacity of 1000 tubes per hour.
• CR-30 Concentrated Reagent Delivery System: Manages reagents using concentrated solutions, reducing storage space, transportation costs, and environmental waste.
