Regulatory Compliance
The STAR line offers all the tools you need for fully compliant GMP operation, including 21 CFR Part 11 compliance tools.
The MICROLAB® STAR line was specifically designed for regulated laboratories,
ensuring
productive and safe operation.
Advanced Technology
Technological innovations implemented on the STAR line include independent and asymmetric positioning of pipetting channels, precise tip attachment and unrivalled dual liquid level detection. These innovations provide a wide volume range and quality pipetting .
Thus the STAR line meets the strictest requirements regarding positional accuracy, precision and flexibility. With MAD, CO-RE, and DPS, you can be assured that your application will be automated with the best process security, reliability and throughput available.
Air Displacement Pipetting
The STAR line uses air-displacement technology, which is analogous to a hand held electronic pipette. The benefits of this technology include the following:
- In combination with disposable tips, the risk of contamination of critical assays is reduced to an absolute minimum.
- High accuracy and precision from sub- microlitre volumes to 1 ml can be reached with the same pipetting channels.
- No system liquid, diluters, valves or complicated tubing is required.
- No dilution effects of samples with system fluid.
MICROLAB® STAR Line
Innovative Technology for Higher Process Reliability
Monitored Air Displacement: MAD and ADC
By monitoring the air-based pipetting action, the instrument detects clots or empty wells during the aspiration step in real time.
It can also be used to pipette highly volatile solvents that prevent automation of assays relying on such solvents on conventional pipetting robots. This Anti-Droplet Control (ADC) compensates for pressure changes in the channels that are caused by the high vapour pressure of volatile solvents in real time.
Monitored Air Displacement eliminates uncertainty in automated assays by providing reliable, consistent walk-away automation.
Total Aspiration and Dispense Monitoring: TADM
During crucial sample transfers, such as in an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) laboratory, parameters may be set up by the user to monitor, in real time, both the aspiration and dispensing steps. TADM verifies with a traceable digital audit trail that a sample has been transferred.
Dual Liquid Level Detection: Unrivalled Sensitivity
The independent pipetting channels offer two modes of liquid level detection (LLD): capacitive LLD and HAMILTONs unique pressure-based system. The capacitive LLD system detects nearly all liquids in most labware containers. The pressure-based LLD system detects all liquids including non-conductive organic solvents independent of the container type.
The multiprobe heads (96-, 384- and Nano ) allow liquid level sensing in reagent troughs eliminating the need to program specific pipetting heights.
Compressed O-Ring Expansion: CO-RE
Many of todays applications require precision in tip attachment and positioning. In order to ensure such precision,
The CO-RE system attaches disposable tips or steel washable needles to the pipetting channels with a stable lock-and-key fit. This enables a precision of ±0.1 mm on all axes. The system requires no vertical force for tip attachment or tip ejection, thus eliminating mechanical stress and improving the overall system reliability along with pipetting speed and dexterity.
Furthermore the pipetting channels can:
- make use of disposable tips and washable tips within the same run
- pick up a gripper and other tools
- eliminate aerosol production upon tip ejection
Flexible and Precise Positioning: DPS
The Dynamic Positioning System (DPS) of the STAR line moves each pipetting channel independently on the Y-axis, as well on the Z-axis. Each channel uses its own high-precision motors and electronics to reach any position on the deck without the need for teaching. In applications such as hit-picking, where samples need to be transferred in an irregular pattern, this flexibility improves throughput.
Design Your Own Instrument
The STAR lines modular and flexible design allows easy configuration of your instrument according to your needs: choose from three platforms, modular pipetting units, plate handling tools and a wide range of accessories.
Due to the modular design, changes and upgrades to existing configurations are easy. As your projects change, your STAR line workstation can also evolve to meet new challenges.
Unique Scalability
Do you want to get started in automation with a benchtop workstation, but want the option to expand your system if needed? The STARlet can be converted on site to a STARplus by means of an extension module. Deck capacity is thereby more than doubled.
Thanks to the scalability of the STAR line instruments, the widest possible range of throughputs and budgets can be accommodated: additional pipetting channels, a 96-, 384-probe head or an integrated robotic arm can be fitted to existing configurations.

STARlet 1.0 m 5 25

STARplus 2.0 m 11 55 plus additional integration area
The instruments allow full access to 5 plate positions per row. Plates may also be stacked up to 8 high, increasing capacity dramatically.
Pipetting Units
For your configuration you can select from:
- up to 16 independent pipetting channels. Since the channels are independent units, instruments can be upgraded when the need arises. With 16 channels two microplates may be processed simultaneously, doubling throughput.
- a multiprobe head (96-, 384- or Nano ) that can be fitted on the instrument for increased throughput. If a multiprobe head is not part of your initial configuration, you can still add it at a later stage. This ensures that flexibility to increase throughput is retained whatever your initial budget.

Plate Handling Tools
Depending on the complexity of the labware handling involved in the application, you can select from
- the small CO-RE Gripper that can be picked up by two channels during a run. With this tool the channels can transfer plates on the deck - without the need for a robotic hand.
- the internal robotic hand iSWAP - when rotation of plates or access to peripherals outside or below the deck is required (incubators, hotels etc.). It can reach positions up to 100mm beyond and below the deck. Both CO-RE gripper and iSWAP do not require teaching of positions.
- the tube-gripper channel offers handling possibilities for reagent tubes (diameter 8mm-20mm).
