ABSTRACT:
An automated pipetting system for performing programmed pipetting procedures on an array of fluid containing test tubes, vials or wells. The system includes a frame which is placed above a horizontal table which holds the array. The frame is equipped with a pair of X-axis guide shafts and a pair of X-axis helical screw shafts. A subframe which is mounted on the X-axis guide shafts is equipped with a pair of Y-axis guide shafts and a Y-axis helical screw shaft. A carriage is mounted on the Y-axis guide shafts and at least one row of probes is mounted on the carriage. A Z-axis drive independently drives the probes in a Z-axis direction relative to the array.
