Automated sample preparation system SWING KF

roboticfor sample preparationdrying

Product overview Chemspeed's SWING KF is a high-throughput robotic platform for automated sample preparation and integrated Karl Fischer (KF) water titration for water content determination. It supports gravimetric solid and liquid handling and executes standardized sample preparation-to-measurement protocols. Integrated, marked proven KF titrator included.

Workflow (example steps)

• Take vial
• Crimp 3 vials
• Dispense 20 mg water
• Dispense 200 mg powder / solid
• Crimp vial
• Crimp vial (subsequent step)
• Dry air flow
• Heat 100° C
• Start titration

Benefits

• Decrease in cost per sample up to 90+ %
• Increase in productivity by a factor of 10+
• Gravimetric solid dispensing (handles low density, sticky materials, any particle size, spherical or granulate shapes, beads and tablets) into a vast range of rack / vial formats
• Gravimetric liquid dispensing
• The balance moves to the destination, increasing speed and efficiency
• Balance resolution options: 1 mg, 0.1 mg, or 0.01 mg
• Large dispensing range from mg up to g
• Sample preparation workflow support (e.g., derivatization, extraction, dissolution)
• Execution of standardized protocols from sample preparation to measurement
• Integrated, marked proven KF titrator
• Dispensed amount, stirrer speed, temperature, pressure, time and other data are stored in a read-only log file
• AUTOSUITE software: drag & drop experimentation with an easy interface to data analysis
• Interfaces to DOE, ML, AI, LIMS, ELN, ERP
