CyBio Well vario - Multichannel Automated Pipetting System

96, 384 and 1536 channel simultaneous pipettor

Multiple Pipette Heads on a Solid Base

The CyBio Well vario includes an automated base which accepts different interchangeable simultaneous pipetting heads. The heads can be changed quickly and easily either at the front or the back of the instrument. The pipetting heads are automatically detected – fully preserving accuracy and precision without calibration steps.

A working volume range of four orders of magnitude allows liquid transfers from 25 nl up to 250 µl on one platform with 96, 384 or 1536 channels. The CyBio Well vario multichannel automated pipetting system adapts into any screening environment and it is compatible with all other accessories of the CyBio Well family. The innovative CyBio Composer Software supports the flexibility of the system and immediately detects new pipetting heads.

  • Extremely flexible through enormous volume spectrum
  • Highest precision throughout the whole volume range
  • Unique pipetting technology prevents cross contamination
  • Easy application set-up using CyBio Composer software
  • Saves reagent costs with accurate low volume pipetting
