Increase in productivity by a factor of 10+.
Parallel common extraction under elevated pressure, i.e. using superheated extraction conditions.
Higher analyze solubility.
Faster analyte diffusion from matrix into solvent.
Decreased solvent viscosity for increased solvent penetration into the matrix.
Gravimetric dispensing (liquids, solids, powders, low-viscous to highly-viscous materials, waxes, etc.) into the rack / extractor format of your choice.
Powder dispensing / dosing robotic tool can be combined with other tools to accommodate multiple workflows.
4-Needle Head for volumetric liquid handling and sampling.
Dispensed amount, mixing speed, temperature, pressure, time…, and other data are stored in a read only log file.
Easy access to data with a convenient interface to pull results into Excel or virtually any other software.
Interface to DOE.

Speed up your extraction process and do it in minutes instead of hours!

As the extraction rate roughly doubles if the temperature is increased by 10 °C, extractions that normally take hours can be done in minutes using SWING SPEEDEXTRACT.

Fields of application:

Extraction of active ingredients from plants for pharmaceutical and nutritional health science.
Extraction of pesticides from food samples (e.g. QuEChERS).
Determination of fat and fatty acids in diary products.
Acid digestion for characterization of sediment, sludge and soil.
Enforced degradation for analysis of polymer biodegradation or plasma analysis.
… and more.

“Speed up your extraction process and do it in minutes instead of hours!”

Chemspeed’s SWING SPEEDEXTRACT deck modularity allows the user to execute and perform a variety of reaction preparation workflows in a fully automated fashion.

Speedextract Extraction block for automated extraction under pressure
The SPEEDEXTRACT Extraction block

SPEEDEXTRACT block for 12, 24, 48 or 96 vial plates (or customized formats) key features:

Up to 100 bar operating pressure at up to 250 oC.
Heating / cooling and shaking.
Automated closing / opening combined with transfer tool for e.g. transport of vials and extraction plates.
Extraction time reduced from hours down to minutes.
Safer and cleaner than using microwave.
Higher pressure compared to microwave ovens (reactors) results in significant extraction rate acceleration in parallel and disposable formats.

The Gravimetric Dispensing Unit for solids and powders

The Gravimetric Dispensing Unit for Powders (GDU-P) is used to perform automated, gravimetrically controlled dispenses of a wide range of solids in the milligram to multigram scale. The modules pick the appropriate container, dispense the solids and powders, and then place the container back to its station before picking the next one. The dispensing unit includes an overhead balance with a resolution of down to 100 µg, and allow dispensing and simultaneous weighing of solids and powders into various vials, reactors, wellplates, even while shaking or heating the samples.

	Compound Type	Balance Readability	Dispensing Range	Dispensing Container Volume
The GDU-P	Solids and Powders	down to 100 µg, optionally down to 10 µg with second on-deck balance	> 100 µg to 100g	100 ml

Multiple dispensing configurations: one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, many-to-many

The 4-Needle Head for liquids

Volumetric dispensing and aspiration of liquids is done with a Multi-Channel Liquid Handling Tool (4-Needle Head), with four independent needles. The four needles can be operated simultaneously or individually. If required the tool can be equipped with needles of different inner diameters. Larger diameter needles for the handling of suspensions or liquids with higher viscosities, smaller diameter needles for handling of small volumes. Gravimetric liquid dispensing tools are as well available.
