Automated robotic arm for precise laboratory plate handling with gripper, 230V power, and PC control integration.
The Hudson Robotics PlateCrane PCE4-EX is an advanced automated plate handler designed for high-precision plate manipulation in laboratory automation workflows. Equipped with a robust robotic arm and a secure gripper attachment, this system facilitates efficient handling of microplates essential in biotechnology, molecular diagnostics, and bioprocessing applications. Operating at 230V with a 2.0A fuse rating, the PlateCrane integrates seamlessly with host PC systems through dedicated connectivity ports and supports pendant control for manual operation. Its automation capabilities make it critical for high-throughput screening, synthetic biology research, and biomanufacturing pipelines where accurate plate movement is required. The system's reliable mechanical design supports complex workflows common in cell-based assays and molecular cloning laboratories, ensuring reproducibility and efficiency. Accessories include a pendant control interface for user interaction and a host PC interface cable for integration into laboratory automation suites. This robotic plate handler is widely adopted in environments requiring robust and precise plate handling solutions.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
