The RR120 is a modular, in-line processing system that includes, web feed, dispensing with web tracking, vision inspection/bad part marking, impregnation, drying and take-up in a controlled humidity environment. The system provides processing of webs from 5 - 120 mm widths.
The LM6000 Continuous Laminating System is a modular design to accommodate various numbers and types of materials. Each material is fed, from adjustable spindles, through guides and under a pressure capstan roller, to assure complete adhesion to the plastic support backing.
The CM4000 Guillotine Cutter is a robust, fully automatic workstation that provides high quality precision cuts. Blades are made from hardened steel and specially coated to improve ejection of cut strips and reduce glue build up.
The Symphony® is a 12-channel peptide synthesizer, with production from 0.005 - 7.5mmol. It is versatile, has fast multi-plex operation, with low coupling cost, variable synthetic scales, automated cleavage and customisable protocols.
Freeze-drying is a dehydration process, typically used to preserve a perishable material or make the material more convenient for transport. Freeze-drying works by freezing the material and then reducing the surrounding pressure to allow the frozen water in the material to sublimate directly from the solid phase to the gas phase.
It is used to separate, identify and quantify components in a mixture. It relies on pumps to pass a pressurized solvent, containing the sample mixture, through a column filled with a solid adsorbent material. Each component in the sample interacts slightly differently with the adsorbent material, leading to the separation of the components.
The xCELLigence Real Time Cell Analysis MultiPlate instrument uses non-invasive electrical impedance monitoring to quantify cell proliferation, morphology change and attachment quality in a label-free, real-time manner.
The FEI Nova Nano-SEM 200 Field Emission HRSEM enables both high and very low kV imaging and analytical capabilities of specimens in and below lens configurations. It is equipped with an Everhardt Thornley Detector (EDT), backscattered electron detector (BSED), through-the-lens detector (TLD) for high resolution imaging and a X-ray spectrometer (EDXS) for X-ray analysis.
The NIC has a JEOL JEM-2100F, Field Emission Gun (200kV), Transmission Electron Microscope (FEG-TEM) capable of providing high spatial resolution, atomic imaging and micro- and nano-structure analysis of materials.
The NIC owns both a Nanoscope and Enviroscope multimode Atomic Force Microscope. The multi-mode AFMs use both contact and tapping modes to analyse samples, with nanometer range resolution. The samples can be analysed under high vacuum and various conditions, like temperature can be altered whilst the analysis is performed.
A spectrophotometer is an instrument which measures the reflection or absorbance characteristics of a sample. Here the absorbance can be captured in the ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared wavelength ranges (300 -
3200 nm).
It is a vibrational technique for identification and analysis of molecular species. The science is based on the detection and processing of the scattered radiation produced from a molecule when it is irradiated with a monochromatic laser light.
The Zetasizer Nano Z system is dedicated to the measurement of zeta potential and electrophoretic mobility of colloids and nanoparticles, in aqueous and non-aqueous dispersions, using Laser Doppler Micro-Electrophoresis.
