Microplate
Storage

We offer a wide range of microtitre plate storage solutions for automated and robotic systems. All of our plate storage products integrate perfectly with the KiNEDx Robot as well as many other systems.

Our Stacks and Random Access Hotels are designed with human interfacing in mind. Both provide for hand loading from one side and robotic access from the other. Our new dual grip finger design allows the KiNEDx robot to access both Stacks and Hotels.

These plate storage products are all mature third-generation designs, benefiting extensively from actual field experience. These innovative and advanced technologies will enhance the efficiency and reliability of your automated storage processes.

 

 


 


Plate Stack FILO
 
Random Access Hotel
 

Stack and Pod Package

Designed for bulk storage of SBS microplates, these Plate Stacks come in two standard heights with capacity of 30 or 45 standard plates. They are precision machined using our aluminum extrusions and then powder coated with a chemical-resistant finish. The Teflon-coated removable base features hardened 3-point datums for repeatable alignment.   Our Plate Hotels are designed for automated random-access storage of SBS microplates. They come in two standard heights with capacity of 15 or 22 standard plates with lids. We CNC everything and have optional spacing for deep-well plates, tube racks, tip racks, etc. The Teflon-coated removable base features hardened 3-point datums for repeatable alignment.   This Stack and Pod Base package is designed for direct interface with the KiNEDx Robot. It accepts up to four standard or tall FILO stacks giving capacities of 120 or 180 standard plates respectively. The solid aluminum base is CNC’d and Teflon coated. It features a multipoint datum registration system and a one-touch lock button for repeatable alignment. Optional sensors and LED’s are available for Stack verification.
         
Hotel and Pod Package
 
Carousel with FILO Stacks
 
Carousel with Random Access Hotels
This Hotel and Pod Base package is designed for direct interface with the KiNEDx Robot. It accepts up to four standard or tall Random Access Hotels giving capacities of 60 or 88 standard plates respectively. The solid aluminum base is CNC’d and Teflon coated. It features a multipoint datum registration system and a one-touch lock button for repeatable alignment. Optional sensors and LED’s are available for Stack verification.   The Plate Depot is for use in applications requiring high-capacity bulk storage of microtitre plates. It holds 10 individual Plate Stacks (portrait orientation) and has a capacity of 300 or 450 standard microplates. Stacks easily click into the carousel base where a multipoint datum registration system ensures repeatable alignment. No separate controller is required. All electronics reside onboard and a single serial cable connects between the Plate Cache and user PC.   The Plate Cache is for use in applications requiring high-capacity random-access storage of microtitre plates. It holds 10 individual Plate Hotels (portrait orientation) with capacities of 150 or 220 standard plates with lids. Hotels easily click into the carousel base where a multipoint datum registration system ensures repeatable alignment. No separate controller is required. All electronics reside onboard and a single serial cable connects between the Plate Cache and user PC.

Plate Stacker FIFO
This single Stack and Pod Base combo is designed for lower capacity FILO plate storage. It has a capacity of 30 or 45 standard plates. All Pod Base parts are precision machined on our CNC and then coated with a low-friction Teflon-coating. It features a multipoint datum registration system and a one-touch retainer button for repeatable insertion of the Stack. An optional sensor and LED is available for Stack presence verification.   This single Hotel and Pod Base combo is designed for lower capacity random access plate storage. It has a capacity of 15 or 22 standard plates. All Pod Base parts are precision machined on our CNC and then coated with a low-friction Teflon-coating. It features a multipoint datum registration system and a one-touch retainer button for repeatable insertion of the Hotel. An optional sensor and LED is available for Hotel presence verification.   Our industry-exclusive Q-Stacker is a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) plate stacker designed for sequential batch processing of microplates, e.g., assays requiring room temperature incubation. The Q-Stacker can often replace larger and more complex random access storage schemes. It can be run in both manual and fully automatic modes. More>
