Automation components for laboratory equipment

Laboratory Automation Liquid Dispensing Process

Offering the world’s smallest sensors in its design for easy handling of samples in analytical instrument and  laboratory equipment. For example, our ionizers are available in ultra-compact designs and can neutralize static charges.This prevents small electrostatically charged parts from sticking to each other and prevent  liquid drops from adhering to the test tube's top edge or sidewalls.

Leak detection sensors identify possible spills of washing or reagent liquids and improve safety and smooth operation.

Besides the state-of-the-art sensors, Panasonic Systems and Solutions offers a wide range of automation components like safety light curtains, controllers, motors, and HMIs (Human-Machine-Interfaces), that will reliably contribute to the automation of laboratories.
