Provides flexible microplate support on liquid handling decks to compensate for physical tolerances between labware and pipettors and enable more precise automated pipetting at the bottom of the wells.
Compensates for physical tolerances between labware and the hard surface that can make automated precision pipetting at the well bottom difficult
Microplates supported by the Alpillo give way, limiting the force exerted by the tips as they push down.
Labware variations, misaligned pipet heads, calibration errors, mechanical wear, or tip loading variability are but a few of the problems that often lead to inaccurate positioning between tips and labware. The Alpillo Plate Cushion is designed to compensate for physical tolerances between labware and pipettor that can make automated precision pipetting difficult.

Get That Last Drop
The Alpillo Plate Cushion is indispensable in applications where every drop of fluid needs to be removed from a well, for example, in wash or supernatant removal steps. In these situations pipetting must occur at the bottom of the wells without occluding the tips. This is difficult to accomplish when the labware sits on a hard surface. The Alpillo Plate Cushion provides a soft flexible surface that allows all tips to reliably reach the bottom of their respective wells, easily compensating for possible height variations.
