The iFOUR

Automated liquid handling and high-precision dispensing of various liquids in the picoliter and nanoliter volume range.

Pulse Shaper

Form follows function

Our newest generation of piezo-wave form generator is already an integral part of your iFOUR. Create your piezo-signal form as a freeform and handle even the most difficult liquids. This feature is unique in its class.

Wash Station

Service-free

The combination of a diaphragm and piston-stroke pump results in an extremely durable washing station for our dispensing needles. No wear and tear promise a long service life as well as minimal maintenance.

Camera System

Reliable feedback

The uncompromising industrial design, camera, lens quality and light flash generation are unique to this device class. Clear and high-resolution images provide quick feedback on your liquid dispensing processes.

LED-Status Display

432 individual LEDs

The iFOUR displays its status via large, bright, definable light patterns. These status LEDs signal each step of the process, and even the remaining runtime.
