This new affordable laboratory machine offers even small research teams the opportunity to automate experiments.
What it does: Basically, this is the most boring part of lab work. Created by Opentrons, OT-2 uses pre-written code or custom code created by researchers to automate experiments by measuring and moving liquids between containers.
Small-Scale Automation: Equipment to perform pipetting tasks already exists, but they are too large and expensive for small laboratories. The OT-2 costs $4,000 and fits on a standard lab bench, meaning more researchers should be able to skip pipetting.
Increase output: “We tend to think of our robots as force multipliers and expect each researcher to increase their output in the lab with every OT-2 they run. About three times,” said Opentrons co-founder Will Canine.
Automation Lab: The robot also has an open API, meaning users can integrate the robot with devices like Amazon Alexa — something scientists are already experimenting with.
The experienced service team and strong production support team provide customers with worry-free order services.
