Laboratory Automation & Customization Solutions
Complete solutions for a fully integrated lab automation workflow
Explore lab automation-ready workflows for an end-to-end, high-throughput screening solution
Automation and customization solutions include scientists and engineers who can customize our instruments, as well as automate entire workflows to meet the specific needs of your assay, method, or protocol. We take a consultative approach to understand your application requirements and recommend labware, lab robotics, and software solutions that best match the unique needs of your application.
At the new Organoid Innovation Center at Molecular Devices we showcase these cutting-edge technologies with novel 3D biology methods to address key challenges of scaling complex 3D biology.
Streamline workflows with comprehensive solutions
We offer services from consultation through to implementation. Our solutions include throughput analysis, software and hardware customization, factory acceptance, site acceptance, and validation testing.
Test with biological samples
Our scientists work with you to understand your process and biological requirements, so we can reproduce and test the actual performance in-house prior to shipment.
Maximize uptime with global support
With over 40 years experience supporting life science research and a global support network, our solutions provide you peace of mind.
Features
Turnkey service
We share our application and instrumentation expertise and propose solutions. We test solutions in-house and, upon validation, install at your facility. We then follow through with on-site support.
Scalable automation
The Automation & Customization Team can adapt our instruments to seamlessly integrate into larger lab automation workstations. We also design and test whole workstations from scratch.
Hardware customization
From custom labware, to unique transfer pins, or special handling requirements, we’ll work to find a solution and prove it through validation.
Software customization
We can modify the programming interface of our instruments to match your application, integrate into LIMS or data management systems, customize a user interface, and control any custom-designed hardware.
Connecting data, decisions, and discovery across research workflows
Improve reproducibility, increase throughput, and reduce hands-on time with flexible, integrated lab automation solutions that bring together cell culture, imaging, liquid handling, AI-driven decision-making, and data analysis in a unified workflow. From automated cell culture and organoid development to high-content screening and endpoint analysis, Molecular Devices helps labs connect workflows, standardize processes, and scale advanced cell model research across your research workflows.
Industry-leading technology from collaborators integrate seamlessly into the workcell, creating a truly end-to-end, automated workflow solution for any lab. From incubators, liquid handlers, and robotics to customized software and hardware—and with over 35 years of experience in the life science industry—you can count on us to deliver quality products and provide worldwide support.
- Lab automation for high-throughput, high-content screening (HCS)
Our automated, high-content screening workcell provides an end-to-end solution that helps standardize live 2D/3D cellular development process with cell culture, treatment, and incubation, through to imaging, analysis, and data processing, delivering consistent, unbiased, and biologically-relevant results at scale. - Lab automation for high-throughput plate-based assays
Plate-based assays form the cornerstone of many laboratory research programs. Explore our fully-integrated, automated workflow solutions for biochemical assays such as ELISA, DNA/RNA quantitation, MTT cytotoxicity, or binding/affinity or cell-based assays such as CRISPR, viral titer, protein expression, bacterial growth, or cell signaling. - Lab automation for high-throughput clone screening
Scalable and simple-to-use products establish clonal populations for antibody discovery and cell line development. Our automated clone screening workflows integrate laboratory devices to increase your throughput and efficiency while reducing human interaction. - Lab automation for automated iPSC and organoid workflows
Automate complex cell culture workflows for stem cells, iPSCs, spheroids, and organoids with an integrated system that combines incubation, liquid handling, imaging, and AI-guided decision-making. Standardize feeding, passaging, monitoring, and analysis to improve reproducibility, reduce hands-on time, and scale biologically relevant models with confidence.
