<strong>LabAutomation</strong><strong>2006</strong><br />
New Product Launches to<br />
Debut at <strong>LabAutomation</strong><strong>2006</strong><br />
ASI/Applied Scientific Instrumentation (Booth 571)<br />
Ultra Precise Piezo-Z Focusing XYZ Stage with FlatTrak ®<br />
Technology<br />
The PZ-2000 XYZ stage has been designed to provide a high<br />
resolution, and highly repeatable, means of X, Y, and Z positioning.<br />
The Z-axis is positioned via a piezo element with nanometer<br />
resolution and accuracy. The system can utilizes ASI’s FlatTrak ®<br />
technology for maintaining focus while scanning well plates.<br />
ARTEL (Booth 204)<br />
Introduces Performance Verification System for 384<br />
Channel Liquid Handlers<br />
ARTEL announces the new generation MVSTM Multichannel<br />
Verification System for performance management of 384-channel<br />
liquid handlers. The new MVS can also verify liquid handler<br />
performance using non-aqueous solutions. The MVS provides<br />
the easiest, most cost-effective, accurate and precise method<br />
for optimizing protocols, standardizing results across laboratories,<br />
and ensuring data integrity.<br />

Beckman Coulter, Inc. (Booth 327)<br />
Automate Microarray Target Preparation With Confidence<br />
Coulter launches its latest solution for microarray target<br />
preparation at <strong>LabAutomation</strong><strong>2006</strong>. The ArrayPLEX application<br />
on the Biomek ® 3000 provides robust Affymetrix GeneChip<br />
preparation, offering streamlined workflow and superior<br />
Agencourt ® mag bead purification technology on a small-<br />
footprint, flexible system with proven field performance.<br />
Bio/Data Corporation (Booth 174)<br />
Introduces IMIXX ® , Vertical Stirring Systems<br />
IMIXX ® , our new Vertical Stirring Systems, mix samples rapidly<br />
at very low speeds and shear. Vertical Stirring moves the stir<br />
bar randomly through the fluid using multiple magnetic fields.<br />
Speed and temperature (up to 80°C) are precisely controlled.<br />
These systems stir conical vials along with any other shape<br />
and size (0.2mL to 1 Liter) containers.<br />
Bishop-Wisecarver (Booth 559)<br />
Announces Three New Products<br />
New Integrated DualVee ® Wheel Technology<br />
From Bishop-Wisecarver<br />
Bishop-Wisecarver announces Integral studs and bushings that<br />
eliminate tolerance stack-up and improve durability and stability.<br />
Wheels with Integral bushings and studded shafts provide higher<br />
load capabilities and reduce installation time. Offered in 52100<br />
carbon bearing steel and 440C stainless steel, shielded or<br />
sealed; studded wheels available in sizes 0 - 4; bushed wheels<br />
available in sizes 2 - 4. Multiple components consolidated into<br />
one part number allows for simple procurement.<br />
New Miniature Slide System With High Load Capabilities<br />
Introducing the MinVee linear slide system built on<br />
Bishop-Wisecarver’s tried and true DualVee ® Guide Wheel<br />
Technology. MinVee is a low profile, slide system consisting<br />
of a 4-wheel carriage riding a 1⁄2 inch double-edge hardened<br />
steel track. The 2” x2” carriage plate features integral bushing and<br />
stud shaft wheels, available in steel or polymer. Load capacities<br />
of 12 to 110 lbs. and speeds up to 5 m/sec make this low<br />
profile system ideal for laboratory, medical, semi-conductor and<br />
packaging applications.<br />
UtiliTrak ® Linear Motion Guides With Polymer Wheels<br />
Bishop-Wisecarver announces the PW UtiliTrak ® with signature<br />
DualVee Motion Technology ® guide wheels. This smooth, low cost,<br />
corrosion resistant linear guidance solution features a pre-assembled<br />
carriage with studded polymer wheels and predrilled track, loads<br />
up to 118 N, speeds up to 1 m/s, and acceleration up to 3 g’s.<br />
UtiliTrak ® is ideal for lab, medical and packaging industries where<br />
load capacity, stiffness and positional accuracy are less demanding.
