The Puck, Loading Dewar, Shipping Canister, and Pin Bases The 'ALS-style' puck, loading dewar, loading tools, shipping canisters, and sample pin bases may be purchased from Crystal Positioning Systems. The ALS-style Puck is a sample pin storage and shipping container compatible with ALS-style sample mounting robots. (This container should not be confused with the V1-Uni-Puck which is compatible with a variety of sample mounting robots.) The puck holds 16 sample pins. It consists of two parts shown in the image below: 1) the sample enclosure (left) and 2) the sample base piece (right). Only the sample base piece is magnetic.
Each part of the puck has a unique serial number for identification. Custom serial numbers are available upon request for an additional fee. Puck Prices:
