December 2013—Hamilton Robotics has launched a next-generation, liquid-handling platform that offers contact-free pipetting over a wide volume range. The Hamilton Vantage is space efficient, affordable, and can be remotely monitored by mobile devices. Its expandable design makes it a powerful instrument for labs performing simple or complex applications.
The Vantage system features Hamilton’s NanoPulse technology, which provides volume ranges of 100 nL to 1 mL from a single channel, and a new linear motor that increases pipetting speed while decreasing noise, heat, and vibration. New camera technology enhances traceability by verifying all labware on the system and detecting nonbarcoded labware.
