Product description

Precision laser head unit GLG3078 by Showa Optronics (2017) for DNA sequencing integration and genomic research.

The SOC GLG3078 Laser Head Unit is a precision optical module manufactured by Showa Optronics Co. in 2017, designed specifically for integration with DNA sequencers used in genomic research and molecular diagnostics. This preowned unit, weighing approximately 6.35 kg (16.8 lbs), measures approximately 46 cm x 23 cm x 20 cm and presents in good operational condition with successful initial power-on tests. Although it has undergone limited testing due to lack of additional components, the laser head functions with operational indicators intact.

Key technical features include:

  • Reliable laser component optimized for genetic sequencing applications
  • Compatibility with existing DNA sequencing hardware
  • Manufactured in Japan, ensuring high-quality optical precision
  • Essential for laboratories engaged in biotechnology workflows such as gene editing, molecular cloning, and synthetic biology studies
  • Suitable for integration in sequencing systems requiring advanced fluorescence and laser-based detection

This laser head unit does not include computer software or control systems and requires additional modules for full functional testing. It is widely adopted in bioprocessing and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, critical for accurate DNA fragment analysis and sequencing accuracy.

The GLG3078 supports essential molecular biology research and clinical diagnostics by providing robust laser excitation necessary for fluorescence signal detection within live-cell imaging and fluorescence analysis protocols. This makes it a valuable component in cutting-edge biotechnology laboratories focusing on molecular diagnostics and synthetic biology applications.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
