Precision gripper handling lab tubes

Precision Grip, Every Format

Custom-designed pneumatic fingers engineered specifically for lab consumables. Firm enough to grip reliably across every tube format your lab uses, gentle enough to never damage fragile tubes, caps, or their contents.

  • Handles 1.5ml microtubes to 50ml Falcon tubes
  • Bottles and vials up to 50mm in diameter
  • Compatible with standard SBS aluminum racks
3D Vision and AI system

Vision-Powered Intelligence

When paired with the Dorna Vision Kit, the robot detects tube presence, identifies tube type and height, locates racks dynamically, and cherry picks specific tubes from a rack — leaving all others untouched.

  • 0.1mm detection accuracy with 90fps global shutter
  • 3D stereo vision for depth and orientation
  • Cherry pick by position or sample ID
High-throughput tube handling on Dorna Core System

Speed Without Complexity

For predictable, high-throughput workflows where sample positions are known, the module operates without vision for maximum speed. Every run follows the same layout — no camera delay, no image processing, just fast and reliable execution.

  • Fixed-position mode for maximum throughput
  • Standard SBS racks — aluminum, hard-anodized
  • Custom racks available for non-standard formats
This module is available as part of a fully integrated Dorna solution.
