First in a new family of scalable, modular liquid handling instruments provides integrated capabilities within one workstation
PerkinElmer has introduced its Janus automated workstation, the cornerstone of its next generation of automation and liquid handling systems.
It says Janus provides enhanced productivity and adaptability opportunities to meet the demanding needs of pharmaceutical, biotech and research customers.
A scalable automated workstation, Janus employs a modular design enabling the addition and replacement of liquid handling and labware movement technologies as application and throughput demands evolve.
Janus is available in three platforms - standard, expanded, and integrator models.
Each platform can be configured with a choice of pipetting modules to address throughput requirements and labware movement arms for walk-away capability.
As application demands change, Janus's modularity allows system upgrades accordingly.
WinPrep for Janus application software provides the flexibility required for various laboratory applications without adding time-intensive programming complexity.
"We are very excited about this key product launch and the modularity that Janus offers provides a unique platform designed to help our customers succeed," said Peter Coggins, president of PerkinElmer Life and Analytical Sciences.
"This integrated and automated platform is designed to significantly enhance our customers' productivity."
