Track overview
CARs travel on the track to transport the samples to the various modules.
Externally supplied analyzers are connected to the track by specific interfaces such as the
Sample Access Line.
The track structure is customizable and can be extended as required. The track comprises the
support system and lane elements.
CAUTION: The support system houses electronic components and customer-specific
supply lines. To avoid a tripping hazard, ensure that cords and cables in high-traffic
areas are routed safely.
The support system and several track sections compose a track segment, which is controlled by
a segment controller. The Track Sample Manager (TSM) controls the active lane elements and
enables the CARs to move individually on the track. TSM is configured with the custom layout of
the track.
CAUTION: Finger pinches can occur if the track hoods close during work on the track.
Use caution when working on the track.
CAUTION: Injury or bodily harm can occur when track hoods are opened and closed or
when they are open during work on the track. When working on the track with the track
hoods open, be aware of moving parts. Do not reach into the path of moving parts.
CAUTION: Possibility of electric shock. The track is high voltage. Therefore, track hoods
will stay in place.

Track section
The modular design of the track sections allows the laboratory automation system to support a
customer-specific structure.
The track hoods include locks and side casing to protect the electronic components, lane
elements, and CARs from dust and manual access.
