Tool System, Gripper, for Biomek® 2000

Includes Gripper Tool, Gripper Tool Rack, Calibration Plate, Disposal Option, Disposal Bags, Manual and spare Gripper Pads. The Gripper Tool for the Biomek 2000 is used to move labware and devices around the Biomek work-surface. The Gripper makes possible the full automation of plasmid DNA purification with the 96-Plasmid Purification Kit, the 96-Filtration System, and the Vacuum Valve Unit on the Biomek 2000. In the purification procedure, the Gripper is used to move plates onto, off of, into, and out of the 96-Filtration vacuum manifold. The Gripper Tool may also be used to load and unload a Biomek Plate Reader mounted on the left side module of the Biomek 2000, and can be programmed with BioScript™ to stack plates on the Biomek worksurface. More information may be found in Technical Information Bulletin T-1832. The Gripper Tool requires BioWorks version 2.0 or later to operate on the Biomek.
