RR Mechatronics is the world leader in automated Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) instruments. Tens of millions of ESR tests are performed every year with RR Mechatronics instruments, the only ones fully complying with the gold standard Westergren Method. In addition to ESR solutions, RR Mechatronics has developed a unique and highly specialized red blood cell (RBC) analysis platform to evaluate the rheology of blood. It measures, among others, RBC deformability and aggregation and is used in the diagnosis and treatment of malaria, sickle cell disease, and RBC membrane disorders. In addition to the hematology related instruments, RR Mechatronics developes very specific environment related high technology instruments. To complement our instruments, we also offer diluents, cleaning-agents, control, and specific reagents.
