Engineered for chemistry

A lattice of precision, optimised for every reaction.

CRYSTAL pairs a deterministic motion system with adaptive process control — letting the platform discover the right path through any workflow you give it.

Deterministic motion

Sub-millimetre repeatability across the full deck, frame after frame, run after run.

01

Composable modules

Plug in the chemistry you need — liquid handling, weighing, characterisation — without rewriting the platform.

02

Adaptive control

On-the-fly process feedback re-routes the workflow when reality disagrees with the plan.

03

Audit-ready

Every action, sensor read and decision is timestamped and signed — GxP from day one.

04

Cloud-native data

Streamed results land in your ELN with full provenance, ready for downstream analytics.

05

Serviceable by design

Modular front and side panels, tool-less swaps, remote diagnostics — engineered for uptime.

06

Anatomy

Every part, considered.

Tap a point to explore how CRYSTAL fits a full dispensing workflow into a single benchtop footprint.

Dispensing head

Gravimetric powder dosing with live balance feedback — the platform weighs as it dispenses to hit the target mass exactly.

Storage extension
Capacity

Storage extension

Keep dozens of dosing heads online at once for long, walk-away campaigns across many substances.

03 / 05
Add-on

Liquid addition

Pair solid dosing with precise liquid handling for slurries, solutions and formulation work.

04 / 05
Add-on

Capping & decapping

Automated vial closure keeps samples sealed between steps — no manual handling in the loop.

How it runs

From idea to insight, in four moves.

  1. 01

    Design

    Define your experiment space in software — substances, targets and tolerances.

  2. 02

    Load

    Place substrates and cartridges; CRYSTAL inventories everything on the deck.

  3. 03

    Run

    Unattended dosing with gravimetric verification — around the clock if you need it.

  4. 04

    Insight

    Results stream to your ELN with full provenance, ready for analysis.

Questions

Good to know.

The core Powderdose unit is a benchtop instrument with roughly a 1.4 m² footprint including service clearance. The storage extension docks alongside it.

Yes. Results, gravimetric logs and full run provenance stream out in standard formats and can be pushed to your electronic lab notebook automatically.

Because dispensing is closed-loop against an on-board balance, the platform doses to a verified target mass rather than an estimate — down to the sub-milligram for suitable powders.

Every action, sensor reading and decision is timestamped and signed, giving you an audit-ready record designed for regulated workflows from day one.
