Handling and positioning small parts

With robots and electric linear actuators that have been specially developed for laboratory devices, several process steps can be carried out in the same workspace. The three-dimensional gantry EXCL is a good example of this. Complete with stepper motors and optional motion controller, it is easy to integrate in desktop systems. You can even further extend the functionality of the system with two independently moving Z-axes. The maintenance-free system is tested and documented.

You have a wide range of options for designing the kinematics for your laboratory device:

• Handling gantries in X-Y-Z direction, e.g. EXCL with two optional Z-axes and two optional Y-axes that can move independently of each other
• Handling gantries in X-Y direction, e.g. EXCM
• Electric linear actuators for the Z direction, e.g. EGSC, ELGC, ELGA
• Motors and motor controllers for control, e.g. CMXL, CMMT-ST, EMMS-ST
• Grippers, e.g. EHPS
• Gripper fingers, e.g. EHAA-G1 with DHAS-GG for reliably gripping microwell plates

Gripping and decapping sample containers

Opening and closing sample containers is one of the core processes in sample preparation. Combined rotary gripper modules perform two process steps at once: gripping and decapping or re-capping. The special feature of the rotary gripping module EHMD is that it's suitable for a wide range of vial sizes and heights with different types of lids.
