Automation Technologies
Velsson develops laboratory automation systems and instruments for liquid handling, sample preparation, incubation, cell culture, monoclonal selection, and integrated life science workflows.
Automate a focused laboratory task or connect multiple technologies across a larger workflow involving robotics, instruments, consumables, software, sample movement, and data.
Laboratory Automation Technologies
The right laboratory automation system depends on what the process needs to accomplish, the samples and consumables involved, required throughput, compatible instruments, and how the workflow may need to expand.
Practical Innovation
At Velsson, laboratory automation innovation starts with the work that needs to be done. We develop and combine technologies to reduce manual steps, improve sample handling, connect compatible instruments, and create systems that can adapt as laboratory requirements change.
The point is to make the laboratory workflow work more consistently from one step to the next.
Liquid Handling Automation
The INNOSMART D8 is a configurable liquid handling workstation for automated pipetting, liquid transfer, sample preparation, and plate-based laboratory workflows.
Independent channel spacing, liquid detection and tracking, robotic consumable handling, and editable workflows make the D8 suitable for applications that need more flexibility than a fixed pipetting process.
Integrated Fluid Systems
Velsson integrated fluid systems can combine liquid handling with robotic movement, sample processing, consumable handling, and compatible laboratory technologies within a configurable workstation.
A high-throughput fluid handling platform that combines pipetting, liquid distribution, pumping, robotic consumable transfer, and configurable process units.
Optional units can extend the system into sample preparation and connect it with compatible incubation, processing, and analytical technologies.
A modular automation platform for connecting sample preparation with liquid handling, filtration, purification, temperature-controlled processing, and compatible analytical technologies.
MFS configurations can be developed around the process rather than requiring the laboratory to fit every application into one fixed instrument layout.
Incubation & Cell Culture Automation
Velsson incubation systems support controlled culture environments for plates, tubes, and flasks, with options ranging from focused incubation to automated culture workflows involving sample movement, monitoring, and surrounding laboratory processes.
A fully automatic shaker incubator for controlled cell culture workflows with temperature, humidity, CO₂, shaking, monitoring, and automated sample-handling capabilities.
STAR can support culture vessels including flasks, tubes, and plates for scalable cell culture and biopharmaceutical workflows.
A well-plate shaker incubator designed for high-throughput cultivation and expansion using deep-well and extra-deep-well plates.
PULSAR can operate independently or become part of an automated workflow involving robotic plate handling and upstream or downstream processing.
Flexible shaker incubation for flasks, tubes, and deep-well plates with controlled temperature, CO₂, humidity, and shaking options.
Static incubation for controlled cultivation and integration into automated microbial and cell culture workflows.
A 160 L CO₂ incubator for controlled cell culture environments with temperature, CO₂, humidity, sterilization, filtration, alarms, and monitoring capabilities.
Monoclonal Selection & Screening
INNOSMART MONOCLONE automates colony identification, monoclonal picking, inoculation, and sample transfer for microbial and monoclonal screening workflows.
Intelligent image recognition, laser distance measurement, configurable picking parameters, robotic handling, and controlled processing reduce repetitive manual colony selection.
MONOCLONE can also be connected with incubation technologies such as INNOSHAKER SATELLITE and PULSAR to extend automation from selection into cultivation and expansion.
Integrated Laboratory Automation
A working automation system has to account for samples, consumables, equipment, physical movement, software, data, and the people using the process.
Pipetting, dispensing, mixing, dilution, sample transfer, plate handling, and other repeated physical processes.
Coordinate samples, consumables, grippers, transfer modules, instruments, and automated handoffs.
Evaluate existing or new equipment based on available interfaces, communication protocols, physical requirements, and workflow needs.
Coordinate workflow logic, instrument communication, process monitoring, data capture, and system operation.
Where the Technology Can Be Applied
Velsson technologies can be configured around individual laboratory tasks or connected workflows across research, development, and production.
Pipetting, mixing, dilution, dispensing, purification, filtration, liquid transfer, and plate handling.
Plasmid preparation, nucleic acid workflows, PCR preparation, library preparation, and related sample-processing steps.
Incubation, shaking, environmental control, sample handling, monitoring, and culture workflow integration.
Expression, preparation, purification, screening, liquid handling, and analytical workflow handoffs.
Compound handling, assay preparation, sample movement, high-throughput workflows, and screening processes.
Connect research workflows with scalable automation, process monitoring, sample handling, and production-oriented requirements.
