Automation cell inspects, removes pipettes

Jan. 2, 2020
Hekuma has improved its HekuTip automation cell to provide faster cycle times and make maintenance easier.
HekuTip This automation cell from Hekuma includes a camera-based inspection system and a robot that reaches into a pipette mold and removes and racks pipettes. Options include a choice between camera inspection of 100 percent of all pipettes and random sampling, and add-ons for functions such as labeling and packaging.

What’s new? Improvements that standardize the cell and make it faster and easier to maintain. The number of moving parts has been reduced. Hekuma showed the cell at K 2019.

Benefits Clean-room compatibility, and faster cycle times, with a reduction from 5.5 seconds to 4.8 seconds or less. In addition, the system can be configured or modified to suit a wide range of customer needs.
