Automated Liquid and Powder Dispensing System
The Automated Liquid and Powder Dispensing System is a bespoke piece of equipment designed to produce formulations in uncapped 50ml centrifuge vials. Vials are loaded into the system in a rack with a capacity of 45 vials. The system is equipped with an array of dispensing hardware that dispense a range of materials in both powder and liquid forms. Wireless dispensing units allow formulation ingredients to be added to vials, which are being mixed by a magnetic stirrer. This helps disperse materials into the formulation as they are added. The weight of the dispenser is monitored using a balance to determine the amount of material being dispensed.
