S-CEL™ – Laboratory Workcells

Combining contemporary design with high-quality engineering and performance, S-CEL offers a reliable, tailored solution for rapid assay scalability, so you can focus on the application rather than the automation.

S-CEL breaks the mould of traditional laboratory automation, streamlining equipment utilisation and throughput, while reducing the specialised knowledge to operate.

Benefits of S-CEL™ Laboratory Workcells

Tecnoflo's enables you to select the most suitable instruments for your specific application needs.

S-CEL workcells cater for expandability and maximise the use of expensive instruments. Connect™ plug-and-play docking technology is used to seamlessly integrate and remove third party equipment

With impressive instrument density all S-CEL systems allow the integration of multiple instruments, whilst minimising the floor and height space required

User, product and robotic safety is paramount. S-CEL is ETLus and NRTL certified, exceeds Biosafety Level 2 and is the only solution to provide full system laminar air flow across the whole system to maintain sterility and protect your assay

Benefits of S-CEL™ Laboratory Workcells

PAA designs state-of-the-art, tailored solutions, so each S-CEL is configured to perform exactly to your requirements

S-CEL workcells offer a fast, cost-effective solution. Advanced 3D simulation is used to ensure that an optimum design is reached quickly, the system is manufactured efficiently and installed seamlessly

S-CEL systems are powered by Overlord™, PAA’s advanced scheduling software, allowing more consistent control over the process, high reliability and great data connectivity

S-CEL™ Product Range

S-CEL robotic systems are available in a range of core modular solutions which can be tailored to create your smart lab of the future.  Each module is expandable, offering the flexibility to grow your business.

S-CEL 1000 PAA

The S-CEL 1000 is a flexible open deck design for medium throughput systems.

Tailored to provide an automation island in the laboratory.

S-CEL 1000

The S-CEL 2000 builds on the modularity of the S-CEL 1000 to include an enclosed deck design, offering enhanced user safety and higher instrument density. Ideal for laboratories where space is at a premium.

S-CEL 2000

S-CEL 3000 PAA

In addition to the enclosure options offered by the S-CEL 2000, the S-CEL 3000 benefits from an air management system to maintain positive or negative pressures with localised extraction to provide sample protection. The primary solution for product sterility.

S-CEL 3000

S-CEL 4000 PAA

The S-CEL 4000 offers full user, product and robotic protection. The safest automated solution on the market.

Connect™ docking stations

All S-CEL laboratory workcells may be fitted with our unique Connect Plug-and-Play docking stations. This enables instruments to be wheeled away for standalone use, or docked at another system, and then returned to the S-CEL without re-teaching the robot.

What is system integration?

System integration is the collecting of a number of pieces of equipment together and making a cohesive automation system with sample, processing, sample tracking and data management.

Choosing the right systems’ integrator is just as important as choosing the right equipment.  We also support our third party integrator partners’ laboratory automation control software, including event-driven and time-drive schedulers. All are trained to install and support our products.

Applications:

Our systems are modular and tailored to each application, so that they can grow with you as your science develops, enabling increased output and accuracy.

We understand how these increasing demands put pressure on labour-intensive processing steps, from sample preparation and clean-up to chromatography and mass spectrometry.

Automated Chemistry

We understand that your synthetic biology workflows require robust approaches to constructing and manipulating biological components and systems.

Synthetic Biology

We know how modular, complex workflows, involving DNA isolation, fragmentation, amplification and sequencing have a high risk of bottlenecks causing delays.

Genomics

With our long history of simplifying workflows through user interfaces, software and automation; we understand how to make cellular assays reliable and scalable.

Cellular Assays

We can help you achieve shorter cell line development times and consistent production of high-quality recombinant products.

Cell Line Development

We understand the importance of automating small molecule
drug discovery to meet the needs of our clients, and how it requires different technologies
