[Danville, CA] – diaago, a leading distributor of laboratory consumables and equipment, is proud to announce the availability of the AFYS3G Lambda8 Information Marking System, a high-resolution laser engraving platform designed to provide permanent, maintenance-free identification directly on laboratory tubes and racks. The Lambda8 is now in stock at diaago and available for immediate purchase.
The AFYS3G Lambda8 enables laboratories to engrave text, logos, serial numbers, batch IDs, 1D barcodes, and 2D Data Matrix codes directly into the surface of labware. Unlike traditional labels or ink-based printing systems, laser engraved markings become part of the labware itself, eliminating issues such as peeling labels, fading ink, smudging, and relabeling.
Designed for demanding laboratory environments, Lambda8 markings are resistant to chemicals, abrasion, and extreme temperatures ranging from +100°C down to -196°C. This makes the system ideal for applications involving cryogenic storage, biobanking, sample management, and high-throughput laboratory workflows where long-term traceability and reliable identification are critical.
“The Lambda8 represents a major advancement in sample identification and traceability,” said Jackson Hyde, CEO of diaago. “Laboratories are moving beyond temporary labeling solutions and looking for more reliable, permanent marking technologies that reduce workflow interruptions and improve long-term sample integrity. We’re excited to now have the Lambda8 in stock and available for researchers across North America.”
The compact benchtop system is designed for easy integration into existing laboratory workflows and supports one ANSI/SLAS-format rack or up to 25 tubes per run. Lambda8 is compatible with tubes ranging from 0.30 mL to 15.00 mL and supports labware from manufacturers including Azenta (FluidX), LVL Technologies, and Micronic.
Additional key features include:
• High-resolution laser engraving for small text and detailed markings
• Permanent markings that cannot wear off or detach
• Support for 1D barcodes and 2D Data Matrix codes
• Customizable engraving of logos, shapes, and sample identifiers
• Compact benchtop footprint for easy workflow integration
• Optional air filtration system for controlled laboratory environments
• Elimination of labels, ink, and ribbon consumables
By removing the need for consumable labeling materials, the Lambda8 also helps laboratories reduce ongoing operational costs while improving workflow efficiency and sustainability.
Available configurations include:
A20106 – AFYS3G Information Marking System (IMS) Lambda8 (for tubes and racks)
A20107 – AFYS3G Information Marking System (IMS) Lambda8 (for racks only)
A20501 – AFYS3G Air Filtration System
