The MGI AlphaTool is a high-precision desktop automated pipetting robot designed to streamline laboratory workflows while improving efficiency, accuracy and consistency. Supporting pipetting, dispensing, aliquoting, mixing, gradient dilution and reagent preparation, it handles volumes from 1–1000 µL and can fill a 96-well plate in as fast as 22 seconds using single- or 8-channel pipettes.
With 12 plate positions, modular hardware, a customisable tabletop and compatibility with standard SBS consumables, AlphaTool provides flexible and cost-effective automation for a wide range of high-throughput laboratory applications.
