With all robotic functionality in the arms, there is nothing
in the way of your innovation. The Xantus pipetting area
is accessible from all sides. |
| TOP |
The modular design of Xantus allows the hardware
to be configured and upgraded to suit a very wide
range of applications and different throughput
demands. Xantus can have several arm modules,
and each arm can carry up to eight pipetting tips
or a robotic handler. Additionally, Xantus is
available in a range of deck sizes, and with variable
X-range, facilitating the integration of external
modules and accessories.
Multi-level application software facilitates
programming and optimisation of even the most
demanding applications.

For each pipetting channel, Xantus employs a dedicated
micro annular gear pump.
The pumps are located at the back of the robotic
arm. Precision manufactured using highly resistant
ultra hard materials, the pumps have a long service
life, require virtually no maintenance and use
no consumables, resulting in a reduced cost of
ownership.
- No maintenance, no syringes
- Precision and accuracy (standard pump) 1ul
to 1ml using standard pump (volumes outside
this range may be possible - please contact
us)
- Washable and/or disposable tips
- Full control of liquid handling parameters

Plug and play modules simplify the composition
of an application system based on the Xantus.
The open geometry of the Xantus design facilitates
integration of the whole platform, or merely the
robotic arms. RS232, multiple I/O ports and a
CAN bus facilitate systems integration.
The PC driven X-AP software - an easy to learn
tool with drag and drop user interface - enables
implementation of liquid handling tasks. Sias
also offers a Developer Kit (SDK), which includes
the DLL and COM-object together with supporting
documentation, enabling OEM customers to write
a specific software interface for the Xantus in
Microsoft C++, Borland C-builder and visual basic
Pre-optimised application packages are also available
(see Applications)
