Description
Product Information
The Qiagen QIAcube, manufactured in Switzerland, is a laboratory automation system designed for seamlessly integrating with Qiagen spin-column kits, allowing fully automated processing—from lysis to elution. This particular unit, in good condition, powers on and undergoes basic tests but displays an error 80 on axis 6 due to a homing switch failure and does not respond to the touchscreen. The equipment has cosmetic wear, including a small dent on the right side, a missing small lid on the front right corner, and missing 7 swing-buckets from the rotor. Despite these issues, there are no known functionality problems that prevent its operation. The item is supplied with a power cord but does not include software, computer, or associated service records.
