RoboRocker Operation

Using the RoboRockerâ„¢

This video illustrates a typical RoboRocker program. The platform travels to the first tilt angle, pauses for perhaps 15 minutes for the culture medium to perfuse past the 3D cell or organoid culture. The medium empties from the uphill well to the downhill well. After this pause, the platform travels to the reverse angle and pauses for the culture medium to perfuses back through the 3D cell or organoid culture.

RoboRocker Programs

The RoboRocker stores 6 programs. They are easy to select and run, and easy to create or edit.

The RoboRocker is very easy to use. Just select the program and press Start. Each program can have up to 4 tilt angles, although just 2 tilt angles is most typical. The rate of travel from one tilt angle to the next is programmable from extremely slowly to a gentle rocking speed. Once the tilt angle is reached, the platform can continue to the next tilt angle, or it can pause at that angle for the desired length of time, from one second to many hours.
