Formulatrix Lab Automation Solutions
Formulatrix is redefining lab automation by making it simple, accessible, and affordable for every lab. With intelligent, compact, and scalable systems like Rover® and STACKTM, we deliver flexible solutions that streamline workflows, reduce manual effort, and grow with your needs, empowering labs of all sizes to innovate.
Rover – Autonomous Plate and Labware Handler
Rover, a laboratory automation platform, uses self-driving "cars" to move microplates and other labware from one laboratory instrument to another. The Rovers use machine vision to navigate virtual maps, providing researchers with a flexible and scalable solution. The platform can scan barcodes, perform plate transfers at designated locations, and move freely in its environment with precise, omnidirectional motion.
- Flexible to Fit Any Lab Layout: Customize the system to connect existing automation to optimize efficiency or build a new automation workflow from the ground up
- Scale as Your Needs Grow: The modular design allows the system to easily expand with your lab’s needs. Quickly add more tracks or Rovers to grow your system in as little as two days
- Maximize Your Lab Space: The system is light enough to hang from the ceiling to free up valuable floor space. Elevators provide access to the automation stations below
- Low Maintenance: Rovers self-calibrate through machine vision and can be easily swapped or removed to keep your automation running
STACK – Intelligent Lab Automation System
The STACK system is a user-friendly, rapidly expandable automation solution designed to simplify the creation of fully automated laboratory workflows. Featuring intuitive software and an intelligent, vision-based robotic arm, it empowers users of any experience level to effortlessly install, operate, and scale automated processes—eliminating bottlenecks while enhancing precision, flexibility, and efficiency across diverse laboratory workflows.
- Easily Reconfigurable: Effortlessly swap out instruments to change your automation workflow with the system’s smart self-alignment
- Extensible: Add more STACK units to scale with your throughput needs, seamlessly integrating additional components for growing workflows
- Fast Deployment: Save time and effort deploying your STACK with no need to bolt down components, thanks to the system’s self-teaching software and vision-enabled arm
- Fully Automate Workflows: ‘STACK’ your existing lab automation to optimize lab space & workflow efficiency
- Scale as Your Needs Grow: Build or expand the system in hours, or reconfigure an existing one in minutes
- Dynamic Alignment: No fiddling every time an instrument shifts - calibrate instruments once, ever, and move on to your science
