Microcapper MCF-13A 01 The patented Microcapper MCF-13A automates the attaching of screw caps on microtubes. It increases lab productivity, occupational health & safety and process integrity. Consistent tightening of the caps is ensured to prevent leakage during transportation. The MCF-13A reduces operator's hand fatigue and relieves the tedious task of hand capping. It is known that hazards such as carpal tunnel syndrome can result from the repetitive strain of manually tightening screw caps, making automated mechanical capping important. Designed for capping of screw caps on micro-tubes typically used in laboratories for the preparation and processing of samples and reagents, the MCF-13A can be set up for various cap, vial and tube sizes. The bench top device is compact with a footprint of less than half an A4 paper, and portable. The product is user friendly and can be operated with minimal training. Caps for the micro-tubes are poured into a feeder. Capping is done by inserting a micro-tube into tube-holder, and pushing a button. Workflow Microtubes are insert in a holder; capping activated by pressing a button. Caps are poured into auto-feeder at the top. As caps are consumed, auto-feeder will supply caps to the capping station automatically. Capping torque can be adjusted to requirements between 12 to 25 N-cm. Operated simply by a capping button and an ON/OFF power switch. Stand-by mode when idling. Counter shows the number of microtubes capped, resettable by a reset button.

Performance Capping can be done in continuous fashion. Capping speed is approximately 3 seconds (limited by the operator). Requires little to no maintenance.
