Hamilton Microlab STAR Automated Liquid Handling System with CO-RE Technology

The Hamilton Microlab STAR is an advanced automated liquid handling system designed for high-precision pipetting critical in molecular diagnostics, synthetic biology, and bioprocessing workflows. Utilizing air displacement pipetting combined with the proprietary CO-RE (Compressed O-Ring Expansion) technology, it ensures accurate, reproducible liquid handling while preserving sample integrity through features such as:

Equipped with a high-performance industrial camera and advanced software, it rapidly decodes and identifies standard 2D barcodes on racks and tubes, streamlining sample tracking in biomanufacturing, gene editing, and synthetic biology research environments. The modular deck layout supports expansions such as the STARlet extension to double deck capacity within a compact footprint, making it suitable for high-throughput molecular cloning workflows and automated bioprocessing applications where precision and throughput are essential.

This liquid handling platform is widely adopted in biotechnology fields that require robust, automated pipetting solutions to accelerate biomedical engineering and molecular biology assays with minimized error rates and enhanced reproducibility.
