Nano Plotter^TM: DNA- and Protein Arrays, Cell Pipetting, Reverse Phase Arrays, Assays, Biosensors, MALDI-targets, ...

The Nano-Plotter^TM family is ideal to generate high-quality spots by non-contact microdispensing of sub-nanoliter volumes. The versatile “drop on demand” piezo technology allows the placement of very small drops onto various surfaces, but also the mixing of samples into pre-filled cavities to run nano-assays. The compact instruments are your ideal companion for the development and production of biochips and for many other liquid handling tasks

Key Benefits Micromachined piezoelectric micropipettes with unrivalled performance Small footprint Quiet yet quick operation Excellent spot quality No contact between pipette and target surface, i.e., no scratching Variation of spot volumes/sizes by changing the drop count (from ~ 100 picoliters) High reproducibility and low CV between spots Arbitrary spot patterns with arbitrary printhead configurations Almost unlimited number of spots with a single pipette load Can handle many different sample types Less impact on sensitive samples (like protein solutions) Standard liquid handling possible using “passive” tips Modular design for easy after-sales upgrades

GeSiM products are highly amenable to customization. Our expert technicians will adapt hard and software components to integrate our systems into specific robotic or other automated user applications.

Nano-Plotter NP2.1

The Nano-Plotter system for high throughput production, and for high density and high precision spot positioning. The system's XY robotic stage is available in two different sizes. (NP 2.1 bzw. NP 2.1/E).

NP2.1 for 55 slides (26 x 76) mm2		NP2.1/E for 115 slides (26 x 76) mm2
1 to 16 tips (smallest drop volume 70 picoliter) Positioning speed up to 50 cm/sec Repetition accuracy up ±10 microns Array densities > 2500 cm-2 Extensive line of accessories available

Nano-Plotter NP1.2

The Nano-Plotter system for Research and Development. It's cost effective robotic handling system will fit smaller budgets, and yet allows easy and custom specific array spotting. Both pipet tips and fluidics are identical to the larger Nano-Plotter 2.1

1 to 8 Tips (smallest drop volume 70 picoliter) Positioning speed up to 40 cm/sec Repetition accuracy ± 50 microns Array density up to 1200 cm-2 Extensive line of accessories available
		NP 1.2 for 40 slides (26 x 76) mm2
