PipeJet® Nanodispenser Kit

Flexible non-contact nanoliter dispenser for integration in R&D experiements, BioFluidix automation platforms or in high scale production lines. Profit from miniaturization, cost reduction of reagents and eliminate cross contamination or clogging.

Non contact nanoliter dispensing

The PipeJet works with a piezo actuator to generate nanoliter droplets from 2 to 70 nanoliters.

Key element is an elastic polymer tip – the dispensing pipe, which gets squeezed by a piezo driven piston to precisely control droplet volume and frequency. Such flexible, non-contact droplet generation enables the dispensing of different liquid classes to realize complex droplet patterns on all substrates!

All you need

The PipeJet® Nanodispenser Kit combines all essentials to get started with the first dispensing trials right after installation.

It never was so easy: unbox all items, install the software, connect the control unit, insert a pipe, fill in your liquid and start with the dispensing.

Precise and reliable nanoliter dispensing

Single nanoliter droplet volumes by a patented piezo driven direct volume displacement.

The PipeJet® technology implements highly reproducible, accurate and controllable dispensing applications. Each ejected droplet is identical - in shape, velocity and volume - to guaranty an excellent print morphology.

Robust and steady droplet ejection

Non-contact nanoliter dispensing with excellent CVs at any liquid type - over and over and over again

The PipeJet® technology features excellent reproducibility of less than 3 % CV (typically < 1 %). The homogenous droplet formation promotes long term stability for a wide range of samples, e.g. aqueous solutions, buffers, solvents, particle suspensions or cells. Even heated and chilled prototypes are realized!

Eliminate cross contamination

Dispensing technology is based on a consumable dispensing pipe meaning that the actuator is never in touch with sample. Easily exchange consumable dispensing pipe to eliminate any cross contaminations.

Dispensing pipes

High precision consumable tips are essential for excellent dispensing performance.

Different types varying in length and size are available to ensure high quality dispensing of nanoliter droplets.

Dynamic droplet volume range

Single droplets with adjustable low volumes from 2 to 70 nl

Simply adapt the single droplet volume to your needs. Generate well defined droplet volumes based on the software-controlled driving parameters of the PipeJet®. Exploit the dynamic volume range to create individual arrays or patterns of your choice.

Combine the PipeJet® Nanodispenser with the SmartDrop System - to reach the next level of accuracy!
