Tecan Freedom EVO-2 200 Automated Liquid Handler with Air LiHa Span-8, MCA-96 Head, and ROMA Gripper

The Tecan Freedom EVO-2 200 Liquid Handler is a versatile automated liquid handling workstation designed for high-precision pipetting and robotic labware manipulation. It integrates an Air LiHa Span-8 Arm with disposable tip adapters enabling up to 1000 µL liquid transfers across 8 channels, a 96-multichannel MCA-96 Head capable of precise transfers up to 200 µL, and a ROMA Gripper Arm for automated transport of labware across the deck. The system includes eight 1000 µL syringe pumps and supports flexible workflows like tube-to-plate, plate-to-plate, and reservoir-to-plate sample transfers with disposable tips and an integrated rinsing system to minimize cross-contamination risks.

Key technical features and capabilities:

• Automated liquid handling with dual pipetting arms (Air LiHa Span-8 and MCA-96), suited for high-throughput genomics, proteomics, and molecular diagnostics applications.
• Robotic labware gripping and handling with the ROMA gripper for seamless movement of plates and consumables on the deck.
• Support for multiple deck configurations including 2-position disposable tip racks, 3-position plate carriers, and optional modules such as on-deck thermal cyclers, cooling/heating/shaking positions, magnetic bead extraction, and vacuum stations.
• Integrated PosID Scanner for sample barcode identification and tracking, essential for data integrity in synthetic biology and molecular diagnostics workflows.
• Software control via EVOware with USB hardlock key, enabling customized method development, assay automation, and protocol programming.
• Widely adopted in biotechnology fields including next-generation sequencing (NGS) library prep, PCR setup, DNA/RNA extraction, high-throughput screening, bioprocessing media preparation, and clinical diagnostic assay automation.
• Optional services include onsite setup, training, preventive maintenance, volume verification, and method consulting tailored to molecular biology and biopharma production pipelines.

This system is critical in enhancing throughput, precision, and reliability for laboratory automation workflows in biotechnology research, clinical diagnostics, cell biology, and drug discovery. It supports bioprocessing applications and synthetic biology workflows by streamlining complex liquid handling steps.

The Freedom EVO-2 200 Liquid Handler can be customized with additional carriers, tip options (fixed or disposable), and environmental controls to further fit specialized assay requirements. It is shipped fully serviced, tested under stress conditions, and backed by warranty options, making it a reliable solution for academic and industrial laboratories requiring robust automated pipetting and integrated sample handling.
