AutoFocus™ automates high-fidelity sample injections into the Axcend Focus LC®, enabling 24/7 operation, reproducible results, and hands-off workflows that maximize productivity without compromising data quality.
In busy labs or production environments, AutoFocus helps you get more done with less oversight. It delivers unattended, highly repeatable injections with minimal carryover, reducing error and analyst burden. With intuitive software, built-in wash protocols, and a space-saving design, AutoFocus simplifies high-throughput HPLC workflows for analysts of any experience level.
- 24/7 Sample Injection: Run programmable sequences unattended with built-in wash cycles that reduce analyst time and variability.
- Preserved Peak Fidelity: Minimize extra-column volume to reduce band broadening and maintain the resolution you rely on.
- Accessible for All Users: Simplified software, guided setup, and automated calibration make setup intuitive, even for new users.
AutoFocus was purpose-built to deliver reproducible results with a low-footprint, stackable design. It fits neatly with the Focus LC, enabling benchtop or mobile configurations without adding complexity or bulk.
- High-Precision Injection: Maintains injection volume precision under 0.25% for repeatable, reliable results.
- Low Carryover Design: Optimized fluidic path and needle wash protocols reduce contamination to <0.02%.
- Flexible Sample Handling: Supports 40 x 2 mL vials or 96-well plates to suit your lab’s throughput needs.
- Optional Temperature Control: Preserves sample integrity with cooling to 8°C (at ambient 24°C).
- Compact, Stackable Footprint: Sits directly atop the Focus LC to conserve bench space and preserve mobility.
- Intuitive Software Integration: Seamless control via Axcend's FocusPilot™, OpenLab, or DataApex Clarity software.
