Efficient colony picker with high precision for dense and diverse samples.
The CP-7200 by Norgren Systems is a versatile and efficient pick-and-place machine designed to accommodate high-speed colony and plaque picking. The system's precision enables it to accurately target and pick only round, isolated colonies, even when these are densely packed. It supports plating densities of up to 500 colonies per 4×4 inch agar plate, with colony diameters potentially smaller than 0.5 millimeters. Additional features include blue/white selection and plaque picking capabilities.
The instrument is user-friendly with its intuitive graphical user interface, ensuring comprehensive real-time control. The integrated imaging system facilitates image acquisition seamlessly, supported by highly optimized image analysis software. This software efficiently pinpoints objects of interest and supports custom picking applications through manual selection with a mouse.
Equipped with twenty tungsten needles, guided by precision linear slides, the CP-7200 independently selects and transfers clones. The apparatus boasts high-precision X,Y stages, enabling precise positioning within 6 microns as the input agar or microtiter plate moves under the pick needle.
Its sterilization process involves a simple water rinse station and a compact, high-temperature bore hole furnace to rapidly heat sterilize needles. The device achieves a peak rate of over 7200 picks per hour and is adaptable for use with round, square, or rectangular plates. It can pick into 96- or 384-well microtiter plates and, using the rearraying software module, consolidate clones of interest from 96- or 384-well input plates into these formats or onto square agar plates.
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.
