Application Area: Feeding a pin array chemical transfer system
Twister® Universal Microplate Handler

"The Twister suffers from a lack of upgrades from its original design. While it is capable of moving plates with some regularity initially the machine decays significantly as it ages. Over time the machine's motors will break down and become jumpy. The sensors will begin to fail resulting in dropped plates. A more robust alternative would be a good choice."
