GHM ARS-300 Slide Batch Reader #

⚡ Blazing Fast — 20 Slides in 1.5 Seconds

Speed matters when every second counts. The ARS-300 identifies up to 20 slides in just 1.5 seconds — that's less than 0.1 seconds per slide. Load your slide tray, press start, and walk away. Batch reading has never been faster.

Why it matters: Eliminate manual barcode scanning bottlenecks at accessioning stations. Process hundreds of slides per hour without breaking stride.

✅ ≥99.99% Read Success Rate — Absolute Reliability

With a ≥99.99% read success rate, the ARS-300 delivers near-perfect accuracy on every batch. Advanced decoding algorithms handle worn labels, poor print quality, and challenging lighting conditions.

Why it matters: No manual error correction. No re-scans. No workflow interruptions. Trust that every slide is identified correctly the first time.

🔍 Barcode Verification & Exact Position Locating

The ARS-300 doesn't just read barcodes — it verifies them. The system detects abnormal or unreadable codes and pinpoints their exact position in the tray (eg, "Slot 7, Row 2"). No more searching through 20 slides to find the problem.

Why it matters: Instantly identify which slide failed. Remove and re-label just that slide, then re-scan the batch. Your workflow keeps moving.

📖 Reads Everything — Barcodes, QR Codes & OCR

The ARS-300 supports 1D barcodes, 2D QR codes, and OCR recognition — all in a single pass. Mixed label types in the same tray? The system automatically detects and decodes each identifier without manual configuration.

Why it matters: One reader handles all your existing slide labels. No need to standardize labeling or re-label legacy slides.

💻 Software-Independent — Direct LIS Integration

The ARS-300 runs on a standalone embedded system with no external PC required. Connect directly to your Laboratory Information System (LIS) via USB 3.0 Hi-Speed (supports USB-CDC and USB-HID protocols).

Why it matters: No software licenses. No driver headaches. No PC maintenance. Plug and play with your existing LIS workflow.

🧩 Compact Design — Open Frame for Easy Integration

Dimensions: 383mm × 326mm × 619mm (W×D×H). Weight: 21kg. The ARS-300 features a compact footprint with an open-frame design that fits seamlessly into slide processing lines and automation workflows.

Why it matters: Perfect for crowded accessioning areas, grossing stations, and automated slide processing systems. Integrates easily with conveyor belts and robotic handlers.

📐 210mm × 190mm Recognition Field of View

The ARS-300's 210mm × 190mm field of view captures an entire 20-slide tray in a single pass. Just load your tray — the system does the rest automatically.

Why it matters: No repositioning, no multiple scans, no manual alignment. True batch processing with zero operator intervention.

🖥️ Built-In 14-Inch Screen — No PC Required

Unlike competitive products that require an external computer, the ARS-300 features a built-in 14-inch screen. The embedded system runs independently — power on, read slides, view results instantly.

Why it matters: Save bench space, reduce IT complexity, and eliminate dedicated PC costs. The ARS-300 works right out of the box.

🌍 Built for Any Lab Environment

Operating temperature range: 0°C to +50°C. Humidity tolerance: ≤90%. The ARS-300 is engineered to perform reliably in real-world lab conditions — whether it's a freezing grossing room or a warm, humid storage area.

Why it matters: Consistent performance regardless of environmental fluctuations. No warm-up delays, no sensitivity to lab conditions.

🔌 Global Power Compatibility

Runs on 100–240V, 50/60Hz — compatible with any electrical system worldwide. No transformer needed, no voltage converters.

Why it matters: Deploy globally with zero power compatibility issues. The same unit works in North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond.
