The WOLF G2 cell sorter is a simple, benchtop system that can easily be moved from lab-to-lab, and fits into biosafety cabinets. At 2 cubic feet and 54 pounds, researchers will not need to worry about the system taking up precious lab space.
Let me discuss this with the group. I see your point and I guess we will need to add an option to the sorter (be it just for backward compatibility reasons). I assume you would want to have the same option in the table view (that allows sorting by clicking the column header)?!
this actually triggered quite a series of discussions internally. Bernd already has an implementation ready to go but we are rather uncertain if it's really a good idea to put this type of functionality into a sorter node (or a sorter button in a view). Moving missing values always to the end of a table (no matter which order one uses for the sorting of the non-missing rest) breaks the semantics of the sorting. In a way one is not sorting the missing values anymore but one filters them and puts them at the end. Sometimes they are smaller than everything, the other times they are larger but it's only implicitly defined.
I could see us potentially adding this to the sorter node as additional options for missing value treatment. But I have no clue to how to (a) add that to the view as an option and (b) make it visually clear to the user what's happening to the missing values.
I'm glad you can see the use case for this request. Often the user wants to see sorted data at the end of the workflow to view the results, invariably there are so many properties the user is looking at that they then want to change the sorter node and now sort on a different property. Having to use the Missing Values node to filter out missing values would be very painful, as it would mean changing this node as well as the sorter node for every new resorting of data (due to missing data being in different rows per property column). A number of colleagues complain to me about having to keep scrolling past missing values, so I hope something is possible.
I am more than happy to have either a separate node or for the sorter node to have an option made available (my preferred option). The toggle option could read "Always Move Missing Values to Sorted List End".

In addition to that physical separation, one thing that makes the Metrix unique and why we call it an "analytic color sorter," is because it also gets data on each individual part - you know, spatial as well as size information. So let's run that for you.
But here, so we just ran 2006 parts, and 47 of those were ejected. If you look in our two buckets, we have our Accept bucket which is clean, and then our Eject bucket. You see here we're ejecting the purple corn. We do have a few collaterals which is typical for a sorter of this type. So now let's talk a little bit about the image and the data that we get.
In addition to dividing the product into two streams using high-speed ejectors, the Metrix calculates and logs detailed spatial and color information on each item. Making it ideal for use as a small color sorter or a lab color sorter
A Bombay Sorter also known as a flat sorter is used for high-speed automated sortation of small lightweight items. These items would be too small and light to be handled by a typical conveyor system and includes bagged garments, jewelry, pharmaceuticals, CDs, mail, books, and small parcels.
A Bombay or Flat Sorter is a metal tray type sorter that carries product over an open order (a case or chute position) and when in position, the doors swing open like a trap door to divert the product to the correct location. The name Bombay is very descriptive of Air Force bombers who would open their bomb bays when over their targets.
The Bombay or flat sorter is a horizontal loop style sorter, typically installed at an elevation of 6-8 ft off the floor. The chutes or cartons are located below the sorter and the product falls straight down when the trap door style tray opens. Each tray has a mechanical latch that is actuated by a fixed pneumatic device that fires when the tray passes. Once the latch is opened the two halves of the tray swing open like trap door. Once the tray opens, the product falls straight down.
Product is either piece picked into totes or cartons or full case goods are conveyed to the sorter induction area. There usually 3-5 induction stations located next to each other. Cases/totes are conveyed to the induction stations, where operators manually remove product and place it on a Bombay tray. The operator can either manually scan a barcode on the product, or a fixed barcode scanner is located just after the induction station to scan the barcode on top of the product. The trays typically have either a reflector or fixed bar code label, so the control system knows the trays status (if there is product on the tray or it is empty). This way the controls system can track a tray to a divert location and positively confirm if a product has or has not been diverted.
These sorters can be engineered to have curves and designed to fit tight warehouse spaces. On all three of these sorters the item being sorted can either have an operator manually place items on the sorter or have an automated induction system that handles getting the items on the sorter.
The Bombay sorter can handle products that other sorters cannot. It can handle round or irregularly shaped products that could roll off traditional sorters. It is the first choice for retail apparel distribution because it can drop flat apparel bags directly into shipping cartons and require little or no additional packing. It is a great solution for the distribution of soft goods, jewelry, and other products that are not fragile and require no wrapping.
The Bombay sorter has a lot of benefit for the right type of product. If the product is not too fragile and can handle a short drop, it affords several key benefits. Please look at our TiltSort-Bot AMR robotic system for sorting fragile goods or putwall systems.

Laboratory procedures that generate aerosols are classified as the most important operational risk factor supporting the need for containment equipment and facility safeguards. The likelihood of aerosol production by cell sorters is high due to the possibility of fluid exiting a small orifice (usually 70µm) µm at high pressure (up to 70psi) impacting a hard surface. Aerosol production is highest in the event of a partial obstruction of the nozzle orifice and subsequent stream deviation. In recognition of this risk of aerosol exposure when sorting potentially infectious material, the NIH Biosafety Policy for Cell Sorters was approved in a memo to the Director, Division of Occupational Health and Safety (DOHS), ORS, in 2012.
The fundamental objectives of any laboratory biosafety program should be containment of hazardous materials, and the development and implementation of procedures designed to reduce exposure based upon a thorough risk assessment. This policy is meant to reduce or eliminate exposure of the outside environment and laboratory personnel to potentially hazardous agents during the operation of cell sorters.
An important outcome of any risk assessment process is the creation of standard operating procedures (SOPs). An SOP must take into account hazards (agents and laboratory procedures) and specify practices and procedures designed to minimize or eliminate exposures to those hazards. For cell sorters, the design of the instrument, especially containment or aerosol evacuation components, must be considered in the development of the SOP. Each instrument must be evaluated for deficiencies in containment or aerosol evacuation design and appropriate procedures adopted to minimize risk. An important example of this is that most cell sorters do not possess an interlock designed to prevent the operator from opening the sort chamber after a nozzle obstruction with subsequent stream deviation. Therefore, the SOP should clearly address the procedures for evacuating the sort chamber of aerosols prior to opening the sort chamber, including a stated time period to wait after a clog induced stream deviation.
