Automated Orbitor RS2 microplate mover with robotic arm and 3 stacks, precise high-throughput lab automation.
The Thermo Scientific Orbitor RS2 is a compact, automated microplate mover designed for high-throughput laboratory automation, widely adopted in molecular diagnostics, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical research. This system features a robotic arm equipped with a standard gripper capable of handling most SBS-standard labware in both landscape and portrait orientations, including plates with lids. The mover supports three sequential-access stacks, each with an approximate capacity of 40 containers, enabling efficient microplate storage and transfers essential for bioprocessing, synthetic biology workflows, and screening applications.
This microplate mover is critical within biotechnology production pipelines as it automates and accelerates microplate transfers between instruments, enhancing throughput and experimental reproducibility in clinical diagnostics, drug discovery, and synthetic biology research. Its small footprint fits easily into constrained lab environments while providing precise and reliable handling.
The Orbitor RS2 system is an essential tool for research professionals and laboratory automation engineers aiming to optimize assay workflows, live-cell imaging sample processing, and large-scale molecular biology operations. Its robust design and adaptability make it popular among biotech companies, academic institutions, and clinical research labs focusing on bioprocessing and molecular diagnostics.
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.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that 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.
