Applications
Throughout the drug discovery
industry, PlateCranes have been used to increase the efficiency of High
Throughput Screening and complex ELISA screens. With its built-in
plate gripper and on-board controller, the PlateCrane pioneered the concept of a
small, microplate robot serving multiple instruments, often from several
different instrument manufacturers. PlateCranes give users the ability to use
the best instruments available for the scientific task at hand within an
easy-to-setup benchtop workcell.
Many PlateCranes are currently being used to automate the application of barcode
labels to microplates. The PlateCrane can be setup to automatically deliver
batches of up to 450 microplates to Barcode Print & Apply devices, such
as the Computype LAP-4100. In this application, users requiring barcode labels
to track the microplates used in their assays can print custom labels on
thousands of microplates by just setting up the PlateCrane Workcell with
sufficient plates and letting it run unattended. The PlateCrane provides what is
easily the most reliable, trouble-free barcode print & apply sytem for
microplates anywhere.
The PlateCrane is also used to move microplates and filter plates in high
throughput, automated DNA Plasmid Prep systems. Unlike systems offered by
some plasmid prep kit manufacturers, Hudson’s wide array of automated
dispensers, shaker nests and automated vacuum nests make PlateCrane-based
plasmid prep systems truly walk-away: with no need for human intervention from
start to finish, with throughput as high as six 96-well plates (576 samples) per
hour.
Hudson has also private-labelled, OEM PlateCranes for several instrument
manufacturers who need a capable, reliable device dedicated to automatically
loading and unloading their instruments, providing long “walk away” capability
to their instruments.
