Benefits

Powerful advantages

End-to-end automation of synthesis workflows including reagent preparation (liquids and solids), multistep synthesis, work-up, purification, analysis and product transfer to storage.
Fully automated polymerization screening up to 100 bar safety pressure and 250°C jacket temperature with flexible well plate pressure block, shakable / heatable / coolable, and sampling / dilution, work-up, analysis.
Easy-to-use disposable multi-functional, high-precision glass reactor arrays (SBS- / well-plate based) - e.g. 12x20 mL, 24x8 mL, 48x2 mL, 96x1 mL total volume glass vials.
Unique fully automated well-plate based pressure screening block for reactive gas chemistries (CATSCREEN) and superheated chemistries (SPEEDCHEM).
Work-up by e.g. L/L extraction, filtration, solid-phase extraction, crystallization, and drying.
Proprietary robotic tool exchange.
Gravimetric solid handling from μg to g.
Gravimetric liquid handling from mg to g / μL to mL.
Chemistry proven liquid handling with e.g. pH, filtration, heated needle extension.
Throughput, e.g. 12 / 24 / 48 / 96 / ... parallel reactions per run based.
Ventilated, conditioned hood for e.g. sensitive, low-temperature chemistry (optional integration within customized MBraun glove-box).
AUTOSUITE SOFTWARE - drag & drop experimentation with easy interface (e.g. python custom device) to e.g. LIMS, ELN, data analysis, AI / ML closed loop.
