The Mohawk 48 uses forty-eight magnetic pins to allow a specific frozen or thawed sample tube to be lifted and selected when presenting a 48-position tube rack according to a pick list from Excel or a LIMS system. Alternatively, specific individual tubes can be selected and picked manually via the user interface. Individual sample tubes can be picked from a single rack, or users can create a picklist to select tubes from multiple racks. Shortlists can be created by connecting the Mohawk to a Ziath full-shelf reader, such as the Mirage. The advantage in this case is that target racks with picked tubes can also be checked for accuracy on the same reader.

Proven in installations worldwide - Mohawk tube selection and collection technology eliminates the need for slow and costly robotic systems - Import a collection list, select and collect larger tubes of whole tissue samples in just seconds.

Connecting the Mohawk 48 directly to a 2D barcode scanner for tube confirmation provides additional sample tracking and security. In this configuration it is also possible to generate pick lists directly from the tube barcodes. For further traceability, a 1D scanner to read the shelf barcode is included as standard.
