Modular ELISA Workstation

Engineering for Precision and Scale — high‑performance modular ELISA workstations for clinical and industrial laboratories.

Our platform combines advanced photometry, precise liquid handling, integrated washing, and orbital shaking in a single, space‑efficient system. Built for high‑volume workflows, it delivers consistent results with minimal operator intervention.

System Architecture

Chassis and Layout

• Three‑section design: lower cabinet, working deck, and overhead module.
• All modules are interconnected via a unified CAN/Ethernet network.
• Central control unit — an industrial PC developed for real‑time operation.

Working Deck

• 12 microplate positions with full walk‑away capability.
• 4 independent liquid dispensers for flexible assay setup.
• 2 integrated washers (8‑channel heads) with enhanced pressure control.
• 6 orbital shakers with temperature control (ambient to +125°C, 100–1800 rpm).
• On‑deck tube storage — stainless steel racks for 24 tubes each.

Photometer

• Wavelength range: 405, 450, 492, 620 nm (expandable to 6 filters).
• Absorbance range: 0–4 OD.
• Accuracy: ≤ ±1% and 0.005 Abs up to 2.5 Abs.
• Linearity: ≤ ±0.5% from 0.1 to 1.5 Abs; ≤ ±0.75% from 1.5 to 2.5 Abs.
• Read time: ≤10 seconds per plate.
• Liquid level detection, clot and foam detection — standard.

Liquid Handling

• Air‑displacement pipetting with disposable tips (200 µl and 1000 µl).
• Dispensing volume: from 50 µl.
• Tip racks: 104 tips per rack, with proprietary coding for supply chain control.

Buffer and Waste Management

• 2 buffer reservoirs — 15 litres each.
• Waste tank — 15 litres.
• Level monitoring on all positions with visual and audible alerts.

Software and Connectivity

Control and Data Management

• Embedded web‑server for instrument control — no external PC required.
• Touchscreen interface with real‑time status display.
• Support for remote diagnostics and firmware updates.
• Built‑in statistical data collection and trend analysis.

Plate Generator Software

• Workflow management for high‑load assignment and batch processing.
• Flexible plate layout design and protocol definition.
• Real‑time monitoring and automated scheduling.

LIS Connectivity and PCR Options

• Standard LIS integration for seamless data exchange and reporting.
• Optional PCR module for thermal cycling and real‑time amplification.
• Unified software interface for both ELISA and PCR workflows.

Metrology and Compliance

• Instrument validation package submitted to national metrology institute.
• Calibration protocols and performance verification procedures are standardised.
• Designed to meet clinical and industrial quality requirements.

Current Production and Quality Assurance

• Pilot batch: 5 units
• Main production batch: from 30 units .
• Full lifecycle management system in place:
  • Electronic component database.
  • Remote service access.
  • Automated firmware distribution.
  • Interactive service support.
