[Histonet] Vendors who market slide and cassette labelers - Can you help?

[Della Speranza, Vinnie]

 I am working on a project for NSH and CAP and I thought that the list might help me to avoid overlooking vendors that I may be unaware of. I am trying to identify ALL sources of cassette and slide labeling equipment. In order avoid clogging the list I invite you or vendor reps to email me directly. This may lead to an opportunity for companies to participate in this project.


here is what I have thus far:

Thermo Fisher
General Data Healthcare
Sakura
Leica
TBS (triangle biomedical)

I know that Ventana markets a comprehensive software product that is used for specimen management but I don't know what that includes.
I thought Dako may have had a competing product but I am unsure about this.

I also know that in the past there were different versions of cassette printers from RA Lamb that were offered through different vendors, so for example the TBS and old Shandon/Thermo MicroWriters were different versions of the Lamb cassette printers.

any information that you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
thanks
