Fully Programmable cycle to run and pause at up to 4 tilt positions.
- Stores up to 6 programs.
- Each program can have up to 4 tilt positions.
- Tilt angles up to ±30°.
- Travel rate programmable from 5 degrees per second to incredibly slow at 5 hours per degree (contact us for adaption for insanely fast travel rates).
- Pauses can be programmed at each position from 0 seconds (no pause) to 90 minutes.
- Can maintain near constant flow rate in microfluidic channels using very slow travel rate to compensate for decreasing height difference between reservoirs.
- Capable of pulsatile motion.
RoboRocker™ is designed for use in CO2 incubators.
- Withstands corrosion.
- Compact design.
- Can be used in cold rooms or incubators, 4°C to 40°C (avoid condensation).
- Withstands 10% CO2 incubator environment
- Well plates can be stacked. E.g. a 6 dock platform can hold 24 well plates (or culture cartridges, if they are stacked 4 high.
Platforms for your needs.
- Removable "docks" assist in positioning up to six culture plates or well plates.
- The docking bar can be removed, for a large, flat platform surface.
- The docking bar can be placed across the width or depth of the platform, so that your culture cartridges tilt along their length or along their width, as shown on right.
Other Features:
- Color touch screen user interface.
- CE certified.
- 24 V power supply - works with wall outlets worldwide.
- 1 year warranty.
- 30-day money back guarantee.
- Made in the USA.
Note that you can program the RoboRocker to very slowly increase the tilt angle during the “pause” period, to maintain the height difference of your culture medium between the inlet and outlet reservoirs, and thus maintain a fairly constant flow rate of medium past the cell culture.
Features on Standard (RR212) and Advanced (RR214) models
Asymmetric rocking, The RoboRocker RR212 standard model and the RR214 advanced model, enable special flow conditions.
Stored Programs. The standard models can save up to 3 programs. The advanced models can save up to 6 programs.
Maintain constant flow rates for extended periods of time. Use the slow motion feature to increase the tilt angle at a rate of one degree every few minutes or hours to compensate for less volume in reservoir with time.
Features on Advanced (RR214) models
Create pulsatile flow of culture medium to mimic in vivo conditions. Pulsatile rocking in the advanced RoboRockers causes pulsatile flow of the culture medium.
Scheduling. The advanced models allow you to schedule programs, so that as your culture advances to the next stage, you can have different flow conditions.
Models with Special Features
High Shear Flow. The High Speed RoboRocker RR750 series can travel at high speeds. It can burst to the desired angle. This is useful if you want high shear flow immediately, rather than “using up” culture medium while the culture plate is traveling to the steep angle.
