Our microplate washers are adaptable for 96- and 384-well plates, offering versatile options for speed and configuration, including single-tube dispensing and washing full plates. The operation is user-friendly, with cleaning protocols easily initiated at the press of a button, ensuring seamless and trouble-free use. Efficiency is enhanced as these washers offer fast sequential, continuous, and bottom washing options, effectively minimizing wash times. Furthermore, they employ cross-wise aspiration during washing, resulting in efficient washing and reduced residual volume within each well.
Our microplate stacker includes a single plate loading adapter and various magazine options for accommodating SBS-standard 96- and 384-well microplates in quantities of 20, 40, or 50, along with barcode reading capabilities. All integration tools are straightforward to set up for each specific configuration. Programming the automated microplate stacker is convenient through the compatible SoftMax Pro Software, which offers easy setup using preconfigurable automation scripts. Users can access commands through the washer's programming touchscreen interface. For more advanced functionality, users can create custom automation scripts. These scripts allow for setting instrument temperature, executing predefined protocols, loading and returning plates, restacking or cycling plates, enabling plate shaking, recording barcode values, naming files, adding repeat loops, saving files, and more. Moreover, the integration offers the option to include a barcode reader for enhanced flexibility in plate identification using barcodes when used alongside microplate readers.
