Scinomix Sci-Print VX2

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to award a Brand name requirement, firm fixed price purchase order to Scinomix for the Sci-Print VX2 system. The Scinomix Sci-Print VX2 is a small versatile footprint multifunction vial handing instrument that primarily functions as robotic vial labeler-liquid dispenser-capper-decapper.
It is the Government's belief that the Scinomix Sci-Print VX2 is the only responsible source that is able to satisfy the agency requirement. The Sci-Print is the smallest instrument that can perform the functions of labeler-liquid dispenser-capper-decapper. The Sci-Print VX2 has a smaller footprint which is required due to the limited lab space that is available. The gripping function of the Sci-Print VX2 occurs in a manner that is independent of the type or size of vial being used. The Sci-Print VX2 grips from the outside of the vial/tube, hindering the chance of cross contamination between samples. The Sci-Print VX2 can accommodate up to 6 racks of tubes even with its small foot print. It is built to be compact and take up the least amount of space, but it holds it owns in comparison to similar instruments of the same type but larger in size.
