Detailed Description
The Chemspeed formulation platform specializes in the dispense of highly viscous materials and powders with a balance resolution of 100 – 10 µg. The automation equipment provides continuous real time monitoring and control of all formulation parameters such as temperature.
The operator loads the robot with materials for formulation or dosing 8 mL vials with samples for further analysis (such as use on the HTR).
