The spectrum of applications of the FasTrans ranges from simple pipetting of microplates through to complete production of a PCR batch. Besides fully automated pipetting of sample dilutions and washing routines, also reagent, sample and mother -daughter plate transfers can be performed. All 96, 384 and even 1536 plate formats can be handled.
The different available multi-channel heads can be mounted either at orientation of 0 or 90 degree. Hence FasTrans is suitable for a multitude of general pipetting tasks in sample preparation of small to medium sized samples. Its versatility also excels in use as a low-density arrayer.

FasTrans was especially designed for automated preparation of PCR plates. Rapid production of PCR batches in standard PCR plates/tubes as well as in SpeedCycler 36 and 96 well plates is easy and reliable.
The risk of cross-contamination can be reduced furthermore by the use of piercing capable sealing foils. By the possible adjustment of the dosing speed, also viscous media can be processed without problems.

FasTrans, a compact tabletop device, can also be used as a microarrayer in biochip research and development. The freely selectable spot layout allows handling of biochips of various sizes. This permits the programming of dots down to 0.5 μl and dosing in pre-defined formations onto the biochip.

The software is impressive by virtue of its clearly structured graphic user interface. This guarantees safe handling and hence ease of operation. The simplest possible selection of pipetting parameters always ensures faultless pipetting results.

For the FasTrans a number of pipetting heads are available. Those are exchangeable in a simple way without any tool. You may choose between 1, 3, 4 and 6 channel heads for 0.5 – 30 μl or 5 – 250 μl pipetting volume. Multi channel heads can be mounted either at orientation of 0° or 90°.
