GIN introduces advanced robotics and dispensing technology at SLAS 2013 in Orlando, FL.

The increasing and growing need for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to speed up drug discovery and production is driving opportunities in the global laboratory automation market. This market will have reached $4.1 billion by 2015, according to Global Industry Analysts, Inc. As a solution provider to the industry, Global Innovation Network will debut the Delilah EMB dispenser at SLAS 2013. This multi-functional high accuracy and very quiet dispenser has the world’s smallest footprint. The liquid handling robot increases productivity compared to traditional solutions and saves space in clean rooms and on desk tops. It has a maintenance- free operation with no wearing parts in its dispensing module. It offers extremely accurate, high- speed dispensing of up to 40 doses per second from volumes of 50 nanoliters to 140 microliters. The electromagnetic bellows patented technology offers non-contact dispensing via air and no external pressure supply is required. With full, robotic compatibility the dispenser can transform high throughput screening operations by reducing reagent costs and improving efficiency.

GIN is dedicated to introducing quality and performance driven laboratory automation products into new markets. “We facilitate the transition of cutting edge Finnish technologies into global markets by decreasing the risk. We do this by productizing the technologies and introducing the technology into the market.” says Teijo Fabritius, CEO for Global Innovation Network. The Delilah product line is a good example of this and includes sample and material handling modules that are reliable and maintenance free. In production automation, the focus of the business line is on the development of manufacturing of Point of Care (POC) tests and diagnostic tests.
