Abstract
The invention relates to a method for automatically handling a sample container (100), wherein at least one sample container (100) is taken up in a container carrier (30) in a handling device (95) and a lid (101) is gripped by a gripper head (50) with a predetermined gripping force and the lid (101) is removed by a combined movement out of a translational and rotational movement from the sample container (100). Using an optical capturing device, the lid (101) as well as the sample container (100) are analyzed and are assigned to a lid and sample container type, and that, furthermore, a required torque is assigned to each lid and/or sample container type as required for removing the lid (101), and that, starting from the required torque, the gripping force of the gripper head (50) is adjusted.
