CyBi®-WellFlex vario
Combination of 3 different liquid handling
tools
- Extremely flexible through enormous volume spectrum
- Combination of 1-, 8-, and multi-channel (96, 384) liquid
handling tools in one system
- Compact workstation
- No teaching necessary - easy to use software
- Outstanding cost performance ratio
- Very high variability in performance of applications with
requirements involving different volume ranges and pipetting
methods
- System can be expanded for future tasks
- Large volume range that will always deliver optimized
precision
The CyBi®-WellFlex vario combines three types of
liquid handling tools in one compact workstation. The first element
of the system is a choice of 9 different simultaneous pipetting
heads with 96 or 384 channels and a volume range from 25 nL up to
250 µL. The heads can be exchanged easily and are the ideal tools
for replication or reformatting of complete 96- to 1536-well
microplates in a huge volume range. It is combined with the Flex
Head, a flexible pipetting tool with a unique combination of 8
channels and a single channel, thus the tool of choice for either
the preparation of dilution series or tube to plate transfer and
hit picking.
The CyBi®-WellFlex vario workstation enables the
complete automation of assays - from the set up of a master mix to
the handling of large sample numbers, even of low volume compound
samples.
The system consists either of a 4- or 5-position main plate
carriage and a 1- or 3-place additional carriage with space for
assay plates, stripe reservoirs, tubes, tip racks and tip wash
stations. All assay protocols can be quickly and easily programmed
with the CyBio® Composer software.
