RSA Pro and RSD Pro
The second generation Task Targeted Automation Systems from Roche

Concept
Roche’s state-of-the-art automation allows small to large laboratories to realize customer solutions combining powerful sample handling systems with Roche workflow solutions.
For medium to very large laboratories the Roche pre-analytical systems RSD Pro and RSA Pro support a high level of adaptation towards the specific needs of the laboratory, for example
– Tube types to be handled
– Sample carriers to be supported
– Required camera system capabilities
– Selective decapping of tubes depending on the sorting target
– Selective recapping of tubes depending on the sorting target
– Integration of the tube centrifugation process
– Archiving of tubes
– True recursive workflow support by parallel execution of sample sorting and sample archive.

Fully scalable and extendable, Task Targeted Automation with RSD Pro and RSA Pro increases the quality of the pre-analytical steps, reduces the operator’s exposure to potentially hazardous biological material and eliminates repetitive stress injuries.

The standard host interface protocol (ASTM) allows the smooth integration of the systems into the laboratory environment. By using the Roche workflow concepts which are in routine operation in several hundred sites worldwide, Task Targeted Automation will boost the efficiency and the productivity of the consolidated laboratory.

RSD Pro and RSA Pro helps to reduce the workflow complexity, to improve the quality and to provide a satisfying work environment.
