Cavro Omni Flex ® RELIABLE OEM ROBOTICS FROM THE LIQUID HANDLING EXPERTS

Liquid handling and robotics made easy The Cavro Omni Flex provides OEM instrument designers with a complete solution for liquid handling tasks, simplifying the development, testing and regulatory approval of new automated solutions. Combining the proven liquid handling performance of the Cavro Omni Robot with a purpose-built chassis and worktable, it provides a modular, convenient solution for automation of pipetting and sample handling activities. KEY BENEFITS Faster time-to-market – shorter development times using UL recognized and RoHS compliant components Quality and regulatory...

ACCELERATING DEVELOPMENT Time-to-market is a major consideration in today’s fast-paced laboratory environment. The use of modular, verified OEM liquid handling components can dramatically shorten development cycles and reduce risk. The Cavro Omni Flex represents a comprehensive, modular liquid handling framework that can be easily integrated into almost any system, allowing instrument designers to concentrate on their applications instead of individual pipetting tasks. COMPREHENSIVE COMPLIANCE The need for extensive component testing can hold up the release of new products – particularly in...

The Cavro Omni Robot is the heart of the system, offering tried and tested performance for general purpose liquid handling applications. MODULARITY FOR FLEXIBILITY The Cavro Omni Robot’s modular design makes it easily configurable for many different applications. As part for the Cavro Omni Flex, instrument developers have a choice of three instrument widths – with 500, 750 and 1,250 mm of travel – to match their workflow needs. FLEXIBLE PROGRAMMING The Cavro Omni has been developed with ease of integration in mind, using a choice of command sets optimized for liquid handling for different...

PRECISION POSITIONING Low-maintenance stepper motors and closed-loop positioning offer repeatability down to less than 0.12 mm for X- and Y-axes, ensuring that you know exactly where the pipetting probe is located at all times. Feedback signals are used to verify that the target position has been reached successfully, offering additional process security for IVD applications. PARALLEL PROCESSING Each Cavro Omni Flex can be fitted with a choice of liquid handling options, with up to two arms per instrument to allow parallel processing for increased throughput or longer walkaway times. A high...

The Cavro Omni Flex provides a starting point for the development of a complete liquid handling platform, with a range of options to precisely match your system design and application needs. SCALABLE WORKSPACE Available in three widths – 715, 965 and 1,465 mm – the Cavro Omni Flex’s rigid chassis simplifies instrument design by housing all the components and accessories required for your application in a compact footprint. The system’s worktable is compatible with Tecan’s broad range of carriers and racks, making it quick and easy to configure with various devices, labware items and...

HIGH QUALITY FINISH The Cavro Omni Flex has the look and feel of a finished product, and is available in open- and closed-back configurations. The open-back configuration offer maximum workspace for your application, with pumps and additional modules mounted below the worktable and accessible via the front of the instrument for maintenance. This is complemented by a closed-back configuration with the pumps mounted at the rear of the worktable for applications requiring less on-deck capacity STRAIGHTFORWARD COMMUNICATION A variety of communication interfaces are available – including RS-232...
