Concepts

After designing an experiment, you can dispense it to a plate. ROCK MAKER will send your experiment details to the dispensing robot.

NT8, FORMULATOR, and MANTIS dispensing robots are available in ROCK MAKER to automate dispensing. This includes barcoding and scanning ingredient stock vials and deep well plates, pre-defining liquid classes to dispense the range of crystallization ingredients accurately, handling multiple plates for long walkaway times, and marking plates as dispensed.

Note

  • If you use dispensing robots other than FORMULATOR, NT8, or MANTIS, you can use the Mark as Dispensed button to mark dispensed plates manually.

  • ROCK MAKER - Tecan EVO integration is only available in the ROCK MAKER Version 3. For ROCK MAKER Version 4, use the ROCK MAKER - Tecan EVO integration module. Contact support@formulatrix.com for more information.

ROCK MAKER allows you to dispense:

  • Stock ingredients to deep well plates.

  • Deep well plates to screen experiment plates.

  • Deep well plates to additive experiment plates.

  • Ingredients and screen lots to experiment plates.
