H-Cube™ Automation Software - automated flow hydrogenation reactor

Aitken Scientific's software engineers were commissioned to write the automation software which controls a revolutionary bench-top standalone hydrogenation reactor combined with an industry recognized automated liquid handler, the Gilson GX271, to produce the H-Cube™ Autosampler.

Recently, after a request from a major pharmaceutical client, the automation software was updated to allow older samplers to be used instead of the Gilson GX271, thus revitalising their existing equipment and investment. Read more...

Due to the architecture of the underlying code, Aitken Scientific's software engineers were able to relatively easily add functionality to control the Gilson 215 series and 233 model as well. This extends the market for the automation software as many of these older samplers are available at potential clients, saving them money.
