Easy to use
Volume verification of pipettes
Instrument is easy to use, requires little maintenance, and many pipettes can be verified in a short amount of time. Reagents can be stored at room temperature, but can be little pricey depending on how often calibrations are performed.

Very good learning tool for effectiveness and prowess in the lab.
Teaching labs
Having only learned to use the system recently and experience in the pharmaceutical business for a while, I can already see the great impact this will have on my ability to effectively train pipetting to my students. I am thinking of ways to incorporate this in my labs. Many practical learning experiences I think employers who hire our students will appreciate.

Streamlined pipette calibrations!
Animal health laboratory
The Artel pipette calibration system has completely streamlined our calibration program. The amount of downtime due to uncalibrated pipettes and pipettes requiring external calibration has been reduced. Non-conformance due to calibration has been eliminated. The reagents are safe to use and don't need any special storage or handling considerations. The database is easy to use, has a wide range of pipette types, and enables checking, verifying, and storing calibration results in one location. The Artel team are great to deal with, and will quickly respond to any questions you have about your system.

Very easy to use, PCS software and barcode labels for each pipet makes tracking easy
Pipet calibration checks
Very easy to use and train new users. Using with the Artel PCS software helps to organize and maintain current pipet calibrations. Very nice reports to show compliance to inspectors. The added ability to test pipetting competency through the software is a great feature.

This product yields dependable results to fullfil requirements such as in GMP or GLP.
Calibration of pipettes
The Artel PCS fullfils our requirements on ISO compliant pipette calibration and testing. Results are reproducible and variance is lower than in manual process. Personnel is easily trained on the device. Process is faster than manual process but reagents are more expensive.

Great product. Lots of applications.
Validation of pipette performance in all areas of our health care system
We were shopping for new pipettes and the Sartorius sales rep had never seen this calibration system. He was very impressed with the ease of operation and we liked that we could quickly test the deviation amongst repetitive pipetting's. Your system made our choice in replacement pipettes easy!
