New users gain a higher-capacity automation system built on proven pipetting principles, while existing PIPETMAX users can expand throughput with minimal disruption by leveraging the same trusted technology at a larger scale. The system supports a broad range of plate formats and configurations, delivering consistent, reproducible liquid handling across bioassays, qPCR, and NGS workflows. Modular design allows heating, shaking, cooling, and UV/HEPA options to be added as workflows evolve, rather than forcing redesigns or platform changes. Built-in tip intelligence helps manage consumable use efficiently at scale, while continued compatibility with standard PIPETMAN DIAMOND Tips keeps processes familiar, controlled, and cost-effective as automation expands....

Key NGS Automation Designed for Consistency and Control PIPETMAX 268 NGS is purpose-configured to automate magnetic bead–based cleanup steps in NGS library preparation, delivering consistent, walk-away performance while remaining flexible enough to adapt as protocols and sequencing needs evolve. Key features include:- Pre-configured NGS workstation ready to run magnetic bead–based cleanup processes such as AMPure® XP bead-based protocols from Beckman Coulter®
- Integrated magnetic bead rack enabling hands-free bead capture, washing, and elution with consistent timing
- 9 position deck optimized for low-throughput library prep and efficient walk-away operation
- Two interchangeable 8-channel pipetting heads (MAX8x20 and MAX8x200) supporting 1–200 µL transfers (up to 1200 µL with optional MAX4x1200 head)
- Built-in tip intelligence that automatically selects 1 to 8 tips per step for optimal speed and tip efficiency
- Accurate low-volume pipetting critical for reproducible bead cleanup and downstream sequencing quality
- Uses standard PIPETMAN® DIAMOND Tips for cost-efficient automation without proprietary consumables
- Example magnetic bead cleanup protocol with adjustable variables to support SOP translation and optimization
Together, these features help labs reduce hands-on time, minimize run-to-run and user-to-user variability, and automate the most time-consuming steps of NGS library preparation without adding complexity or locking teams into rigid workflows.... Read More |
