Microlab NIMBUS
Features and Benefits
Precision Pipetting
The Microlab NIMBUS uses air displacement pipetting to achieve superior measurement accuracy. Additionally, Hamilton pipette channels and tips are designed to fit precisely together using a patented lock-and-key design called CO-RE (Compressed O-Ring Expansion). This creates a tight seal with precise tip alignment to eliminate tip distortion and ensure the highest accuracy during liquid handling steps. Optional anti-droplet control and liquid level detection technologies further safeguard sample and results integrity.
Integrated Tools and Accessories
With a flexible deck layout, the NIMBUS accommodates a broad range of tools and accessories to further enhance assay flexibility.
- Labware Gripper
- Clean Air Protection (CAP) System
- Hamilton Heater Shaker (HHS)
- Shift-N-Scan Tube Barcode Scanner
- [MPE]2 Positive Pressure Module
- Much more
Software for Any Process
The NIMBUS software allows users control their system for processes from simple to complex without compromising on requirements. NIMBUS software is completely integration friendly, easily allowing third party components to be added to the system without limiting functionality. Use the Method Editor to quickly create a method skeleton, with all possible actions in a toolbox for simple drag-and-drop programming.
