Clarapath, Inc. manufactures precision robotic laboratory automation systems for histopathology and tissue preparation. The company's flagship product, SectionStar, is an automated slide sectioning system designed for clinical laboratories, veterinary pathology, and pharmaceutical research. SectionStar processes tissue blocks and slides with user-defined sectioning thickness (3–10 microns) and handles up to 72 blocks or 200 slides per session, operating continuously 24/7/365. The system employs custom-engineered robotics with precision motion controls and integrated optics to replicate complex histotechnician skills while reducing turnaround time and improving slide quality. Key innovations include patented tape-transfer sectioning technology that eliminates waterbath artifacts and cross-contamination, and TelehistologyTM remote operation capability enabling operators to control multiple systems from any location via a web-based interface. All systems are manufactured, assembled, and serviced in the USA. Clarapath targets three primary markets: human clinical healthcare (hospital pathology labs), animal healthcare (veterinary diagnostics), and research & drug development. The system is positioned to modernize laboratory workflows by addressing backlogs, reducing turnaround times, and standardizing slide quality. The technology emphasizes ergonomic design and lab-professional input in development, with integrated environmental and quality-control systems and patented environmental controls.
