Velocity11 Introduces Its New Bravo Liquid Handling Platform

Menlo Park, CA - Velocity11 introduced the company's newest liquid handling platform, Bravo, at the Society for Biomolecular Screening Conference and Exhibition in Geneva, Switzerland today. The Bravo platform is the most recent addition to Velocity11's expanding liquid handling product line, strengthening the company's position as an emerging leader in liquid handling. The Bravo platform utilizes the proven high-accuracy pipette heads of the company's popular VPrep pipettor for dispensing from 100 nl to 200 ul in 96, 384 and 1536 well formats or to a single column or row of any of these plate types.

The Bravo platform has a space-saving nine plate-position footprint that can fit inside a standard laminar flow hood to enable automated liquid handling for cell-based assays or hazardous reagents. With seven different easy-to-change head types and numerous plate pad options, it can be fully customized to meet the needs of a wide range of assays. Additionally, the unique, highly open design of the Bravo platform permits access from all sides for simple integration with other devices and unencumbered standalone use.

The platform is designed for high reliability and durability to perform consistently while providing the same speed and control that Velocity11 systems are known for. The Bravo platform is powered by the proven Velocity11 VWorks automation control software whose outstanding dynamic scheduling, easy-to-use interface and innovative error recover technology allows complete control that is easy for all levels of operators.
