Beckman Coulter Biomek i7 Hybrid Liquid Handler with Span8, Multi-96, Dual Grippers Automation

The Beckman Coulter Biomek i7 Hybrid Liquid Handler (Ref. B87579) is a high-precision, automated liquid handling workstation optimized for diverse laboratory workflows including bioprocessing, molecular diagnostics, and synthetic biology research. Equipped with a 96-channel MCA arm (1–300 µL) and a Span-8 arm (up to 1000 µL) featuring eight 1000 µL syringe pumps, it enables versatile single and multi-channel pipetting essential for custom NGS library preparation, high-throughput screening, and drug discovery assays.

Key technical features include:

• Multi-96 arm for rapid 96-well plate transfers with volumes up to 300 µL, ideal for high-throughput molecular biology applications.
• Span-8 arm capable of precise liquid transfers up to 1000 µL, widely adopted in proteomics and custom PCR workflows.
• Dual labware grippers for simultaneous automated plate handling, increasing workflow efficiency in cell-based assays and biomanufacturing processes.
• Disposable tip system reduces cross-contamination risks, critical for sensitive gene editing and synthetic biology experiments.
• Open-deck design allows direct access for flexible assay setup and integration with third-party devices like thermal cyclers and barcode readers.
• Customizable ALPs (Automated Labware Positions) including static and tip loader ALPs, shaking, cooling, and heating positions enable tailored biotechnological workflows.
• Comprehensive software control via Biomek control software with AccuFrame teaching tool enhances programming and method development for complex assay automation.

This workstation supports a broad range of application domains such as:

• Genomics and proteomics sample preparation
