The Liquidator 96 is at my opinion the best in the market. Is a manual system, but fast without problems related to cross contamination.
The electronic ones (from other brands) at some point gives you problems with the electroninc system and the tips are not disposable (they take long time between plates due to the tip washes).

Isabel

We also recently obtained a Liquidator 96 from Rainin. Working well so far and way below the price of any of the competitors.

In my case, the winner was the Liquidator 96 from Rainin. It has proven to be very useful and too popular, and now it is being utilized for everything under the sun.
Best,
Engin

Hi -
We are in the market for a new liquid handling robot specifically for dispensing custom 96 well crystallisation screens.
What are people using these days? Likes / dislikes?
Many thanks,
Stephen
