Automated liquid handler with air displacement and CO-RE technology for precise pipetting in molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing.
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.
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.
