HUDSON HELPING FUTURE GENERATIONS OF RESEARCHERS

Hudson Control Group announced a new trade-in program for their PlateCrane EX ® robotic arm in the fall of 2006. The new program works as follows: Trade in your old PlateCrane or any other comparable robotic arm and Hudson will give you 25% off the purchase of your new PlateCrane EX. Your trade-in will be refurbished and donated to a college or university where it is certain to prove beneficial in the training of a future generation of researchers. Hudson is committed in providing education to researchers on the value of automated solutions and how automation can not only speed their results in the lab, but also improve the quality of their research. The PlateCrane EX microplate robotic arm provides the fastest, most robust solution available for small or large automated workcells. It comes with four axes of motion: tower rotation, vertical travel, a telescoping arm, AutoTeach vision teaching system, and gripper rotation that simplifies access to plates in portrait or landscape orientations. Customers can request that their new PlateCrane EX be custom painted with Hudson's new color options. For further information on this program, please call Hudson at 973-376-7400.
