Used in combination with the Artel PCS, the PCS Software ensures your pipettes and their operators are working together to generate accurate and reproducible results. The PCS Software provides scheduling for pipette calibrations and interim performance verifications; complete documentation and pipette inventory management, even for pipettes calibrated outside of PCS Software – and it’s ideal for standardizing pipetting technique and assessing operator competency.

Really dislike the software.
Rating: 3.0
Application Area: Performance verification of pipettors
"The software is cumbersome and has several drawbacks. For example, I cannot perform a verification if I or someone else has already used a pipette at a specific volume without having it reviewed first. This is not how our workflow goes, and really can slow down the work process."
