A4S Sealer

The A4S Sealer (Brooks Automation) is a heat-seal microplate sealing system. Single-plate cycle in roughly 10 seconds, with adjustable temperature and dwell time for different seal foils and plate types.

  • Seal — apply a seal to a plate at the handoff position
  • Set parameters — temperature, dwell time, pressure
  • Status query — current temperature, foil-roll position, cycle count

Revolution drives the A4S over its serial / USB control interface using the documented Brooks protocol. Seal-foil rolls are loaded manually; Revolution surfaces a “foil low” event ahead of a run so the operator can swap rolls without blocking the schedule.
