This is a lifesaver and I would recommend to my colleagues!
Application Area: High throughput screening
"Wonderful dispenser for the value. There is never any cross contamination of wells in the 384 and 1536 well plate. Assays are reproducible within runs and on separate occasions."

Very easy to use and maintain.
Application Area:Bulk media dispensing
"Zymergen is a user of viafills for bulk dispensing. The VIAFILL is very easy to use and maintain. Would recommend for quiet and easy plate filling."

High precision, easy configuration, 16-channels cassettes, great value for money.
Application Area:Automated liquid dispenser on standard microplates and Deep Well Plates
"The system is very easy to use because it's not necessary to use a computer, the internal touch display allows for 100% functionality including Plate Stacker Control. The system is high precision and accurate, including when using the high speed option. VIAFILL has a special kind of cassette with 16 tip manifolds, this consumable allows the system to dispense on 384 and 1536 well plates at double the speed of other systems. Another important new feature of this system when you work with 384 or 1536 well plates is the option of modifying the dispense Z-height in each plate column. This allows all dispensing steps with the tips in the well to avoiding cross contamination between wells due to flow deviations. The stacker system is very simple to use and configure for different plates, from low profile to high deep well plates, simply adjusting the total height of the required plate with a small button on the front of the plate stacker. The after sales care support from INTEGRA Biosciences' technical service is excellent, using web portal or directly contacting INTEGRA's engineers using phone or email. Speaking about money, the total price of the VIAFILL system including the Plate Stacker is significantly lower than the market competence, and the long life and cheap price of the consumable (dispensing cassettes) makes re-calibration unnecessary."

Application Area:Cell and reagent dispensing
"The VIAFILL is easy to use and dispenses with very low CVs when the GRIPtip and large bore cassettes are being used. We found the small bore (low volume) cassettes did not work for our applications. They worked fine with basic buffers but for media the variation was too high to be effective for our application. Otherwise I would highly recommend the product."

Application Area:Bulk dispensing
"This is the first bulk dispenser (in its category class of low priced single reagent dispensers) I've seen that can dispense more than just whole number volumes. All other features are nice to have, such as the touch screen and connected stacker, but being able to dispense 2.4uL, 2.5uL for instance makes this instrument an easy sell."
The VIAFILL features a touch screen graphical user interface for simplistic programming of repeat dispenses, variable volume dispenses and custom programming.
Users can easily alternate between 8 and 16 channel dispensing cassettes for rapid filling of 24 to 1536 well plates. The addition of the stacker allows the utilization of 25 and 50 plate chimneys for filling bulk quantities of both non-lidded and lidded plates.
