petri dish sealing - (Jan/30/2011 )

Hi all.
I want to introduce you to the PDsealer.
It is an automatic solution that replaces the manual petri dish sealing using ashesive films.

Thank you.

I would like to see the machine itself in action.

Parafilm only sticks if you apply some force (pull it) and I wonder how this system can do this.

The idea is nice, but I wonder if it really works.

And also, how much would it cost?
I'd like to know how you'd convince your supervisor that you need such an unnecessary item, especially as most labs don't have money to burn.
