Tecan Cavro Magni Flex robotic liquid handling instrument

Tecan’s Cavro Magni Flex OEM robotic liquid handling instrument is a modular and scalable development platform intended for low- to medium-throughput workflows, offering the flexibility and functionality to quickly and easily create innovative automation systems for life sciences applications, from immunoassay processing to molecular diagnostics.

The product provides the core robotic architecture for the development of complete automation solutions, with a configurable workdeck designed to accommodate a wide range of labware formats and devices to meet specific workflow requirements. A variety of carriers, cut-outs and custom grids are available to create any number of layouts, and the system is available with a choice of two, four or eight independent pipetting channels. The platform’s liquid handling arm offers variable tip spacing capabilities, to suit different labware types and enable reformatting activities, and can act as both a pipettor and gripper, optimising use of the available space.

Featuring the robustness of the Tecan Cavro range of OEM liquid handling components, the device provides a comprehensive, modular liquid handling framework that allows seamless integration into any system. Supplied with Tecan’s MAPlinx development software kit — which includes high-level functional commands for straightforward programming, a worktable editor with virtual library and drag-and-drop features, and a 3D simulator to simplify software testing — the product is designed to accelerate instrument development and time to market.
