automate.it WELLstar

When the FSS required a device to ensure that swap samples (buccal scrape samples) were placed in the correct wells of a deep well microplate, they asked paa to help.

The problem is really straight forward, all that as needed was an XY robot with accurate position control. paa designed a suitable system with one of our design partners.

The automate.it WELLstar was designed, manufactured, installed and used successfully until replaced with version 2, the dual loading automate.it TUBEstar.
