Lancer : What floorutions for washing and drying laboratory glassware?

Lancer, a brand within the Getinge group, is a global benchmark for laboratory glassware washers and drying solutions built for demanding environments. Engineered for R&D, quality control, bioproduction and education, its systems combine outstanding cleaning performance, traceability and energy efficiency. A comprehensive range of injector racks, precision dosing pumps, HEPA drying and fully validatable cycles: Lancer safeguards your analyses by ensuring pristine glassware, day after day. Dutscher distributes and supports these solutions in France and across Europe.

Getinge’s consolidated expertise

Created to meet the rising demands of critical cleaning in the laboratory, Lancer built its reputation on a simple idea: perfectly prepared glassware is the first link in analytical reliability. By joining the Getinge Group, a global player in infection control and Life Sciences, the brand strengthened its industrial backbone, innovation capacity and service network. This integration has driven the adoption of high design standards (stainless steel, optimised injector circuits, touchscreen interfaces), while accelerating the rollout of traceability features and consumption optimisation. Today, Lancer equips academic, biotech, pharmaceutical and food and beverage laboratories, with one constant: reproducible performance and exemplary uptime.

Laboratory expertise and areas of specialisation

At the heart of the Lancer portfolio: laboratory glassware washers engineered around real-life workflows. Stainless-steel chambers, direct-injection circuits and high-coverage spray arms guarantee the removal of organic, mineral and surfactant residues, even from complex geometries (pipettes, narrow-neck bottles, volumetric glassware). Dosing pumps deliver precise dosing of detergents and neutralisers; probes monitor rinse temperature and conductivity for a controlled end of cycle. HEPA drying prevents recontamination and accelerates turnaround, critical for R&D and pharmaceutical QC where every minute counts.

Lancer supports microbiology, analytical chemistry, environmental testing, bioprocessing and quality control with dedicated accessories (injector racks, inserts for HPLC glassware, baskets for delicate glassware) to tailor the wash flow precisely to the matrices handled. On the compliance side, modern interfaces offer user management, cycle recording and data export to simplify audits and validation. Hydraulic optimisation, heat recovery and eco programmes reduce water, detergent and energy consumption without compromising efficacy. Backed by the Getinge network and Dutscher support, the brand delivers a complete solution: measurable performance, high availability and a controlled total cost of ownership.

Frequently asked questions about the Lancer brand

Are Lancer washers suitable for complex glassware (pipettes, HPLC bottles)?
Yes. Racks with direct injection and dedicated inserts deliver uniform internal/external cleaning of challenging geometries without damaging items.

What traceability functions are available?
Cycle recording, user management and data export. These features support audits, qualification and good practice in QC and manufacturing.

Does Lancer help reduce water and energy consumption?
Yes. Optimised programmes, heat recovery and controlled drying minimise resource use while maintaining high cleaning efficiency.

What type of water do you recommend for the final rinse?
Based on water analysis, DI/RO water is preferred to minimise residues and spotting. End-of-cycle conductivity provides an objective measure of cleanliness.
