Perfect Alignment 

Height and the levelling can be adjusted according so that the distance between the pipet tip and the deck is constant all around working area. This innovation becomes hand for special applications when the height must be precisely controlled.

Magnetic Racks

Customizable

The working area can be modified according to your specific application. Setups can be even done outside the robot and all you need to do is to change the deck. This option comes handy when you use the robot in routine filling applications.

Shaking Module

Cooling & Heating Module

Magnet Module

Enough Room for Specific Applications

If your labware is high, there is enough space to lower the deck. The modules (such as cooling & heating module, magnetic module) can be embedded to the deck so that there will enough space for your high labware. Custom design decks for your specific needs can be designed.

Software

Devices

ACHU unit has 2 thermoelectric coolers that are controlled by a PID controller.

A thermoelectric cooler, also known as a Peltier cooler, is a device that uses the Peltier effect to transfer heat from one side of the device to the other. When an electric current is applied to the semiconductor material, heat is absorbed on one side of the material and released on the other side, creating a temperature difference. This temperature difference can be used to cool the side of the device that absorbs heat, making it useful in a variety of applications such as refrigeration, air conditioning, and electronic cooling.

Thermoelectric coolers have several advantages over traditional cooling methods, such as no moving parts, silent operation, and miniaturization, making them ideal for use in portable or compact devices. However, they also have some limitations, including lower cooling capacity and efficiency compared to other cooling methods.

Applications

Precise temperature control is critical for successful molecular diagnostic assays. Cooling and heating technologies, such as thermal cyclers and temperature-controlled incubators, are essential for achieving accurate and reliable results in molecular diagnostics.

Why cooling and heating is important for molecular diagnostics:

  1. Enzyme activity: Many molecular diagnostic techniques rely on enzymes, such as polymerases, ligases, and restriction enzymes, to catalyze reactions. Enzymes are susceptible to temperature, and their activity can be affected by even small changes in temperature. Therefore, it is important to carefully control the temperature during the reaction to ensure optimal enzyme activity.
  2. Stability of reagents: Some reagents used in molecular diagnostics are sensitive to temperature and can degrade over time if not stored at the proper temperature. For example, Taq polymerase, a commonly used enzyme in PCR, is sensitive to heat and can lose activity if not stored properly.
  3. Reproducibility: Accurate temperature control is essential for ensuring the reproducibility of results in molecular diagnostic assays. Even slight variations in temperature can lead to differences in reaction efficiency, yield, and specificity, which can affect the accuracy and reliability of the results.

Custom Design

What is important when choosing the right product?

Temperature Accuracy

Maintaining temperature accuracy involves achieving precise and consistent temperatures that are reproducible throughout the entire duration of the run, and for every sample contained within the block.

Temperature Uniformity

The temperature should be consistent throughout the block, producing the same outcomes for samples located at the center or on the periphery of the block, as well as during the entire operation.

Size of the Unit

The unit should have slightly bigger than the footprint of an SBS format plate and the height should be optimal for pipetting tips to reach.

Sofware

Software that is easy to use and intuitive typically has a user-friendly interface that is designed with the user in mind. It is often designed to require minimal effort from the user and provide a clear and straightforward workflow.
This type of software typically has well-organized menus and features, clear and concise instructions, and straightforward navigation. It may also incorporate helpful visual cues and feedback to guide the user through the application and ensure they are making progress.
An important aspect of intuitive software is that it should be easy to learn, even for users with little or no prior experience. This can be achieved through clear labeling of functions, simple and straightforward language, and an uncluttered interface.
Ultimately, the goal of intuitive software is to make the user experience as smooth and efficient as possible, enabling users to complete their tasks without undue frustration or confusion. This can lead to increased productivity, improved user satisfaction, and ultimately, greater success for the software and the organization that uses it.
