Overlord3 laboratory automation control software

Overlord3 is the first choice for a number of laboratories who work on high end, high content screening applications.

The paa automate.it scara robot is used to automate sample loading on to the chosen cellular imager. The sample plate barcode ID is determined using a barcode reader and the after the plate read step has been completed, the data file from the plate reader can be named or renamed to ensure real-time sample data integrity. Load a stack of plates in the evening and return the following morning to a neat stack of read plates and your data files ready for analysis.

A more recent instrument from MD Molecular Devices is the ImageXpress® plate reader range of inverted microscope instruments. MD Molecular Devices ImageXpress® HCS Imaging System automated workcell examples and uses

The advantages are:

  • Automated sample transfer removes manual operation
  • Simple to use user interface
  • Barcode reader provides complete sample and data audit trail
  • Easy data transfer to LIMS
  • Overlord3 can handle any file format including csv and xml

Overlord3 has the largest driver base available so the workcell can be upgraded with greater storage, incubation or liquid handling capabilities.
