Intended use
The CyBio Carry has been designed for automatic transportation of labware in SLAS for-
mat in chemical and biological laboratories. In the field of medicine and diagnostics its
use is limited to research.
The labware is usually microplates. The labware must comply with the ANSI/
SLAS 1-2004 (Microplates - Footprint Dimensions) and ANSI/SLAS 2-2004 (Mi-
croplates - Height Dimensions) standards:
¡
The labware must be rectangular.
¡
The labware must have certain minimum dimensions.
¡
The labware must have a circumferential edge.
The solid plate edge must safely withstand the gripping force (25 N).
The CyBio Carry transports microplates in landscape format between lab devices. The
maximum transport path in X-direction depends on the device model: 800 mm, 1200
mm, 1400 mm, or 2000 mm. The maximum deflection is 290 mm in Y-direction and
245 mm in Z-direction.
The device can briefly transport a weight of up to 500 g.
