The INTEGRA VIAFLO 384 is an advanced handheld multichannel electronic pipetting system that bridges the gap between manual pipettes and fully automated liquid handling platforms. Designed to deliver high throughput, precision, and reproducibility, the VIAFLO 384 enables users to transfer 96 or 384 samples in a single step, dramatically increasing laboratory productivity while maintaining ease of use and ergonomic comfort.
With servo-assisted electronic control, the VIAFLO 384 provides robot-like accuracy and fatigue-free operation—without the need for programming or automation training. The system is compact enough to fit on any laboratory bench or inside a laminar flow hood, making it ideal for sterile cell culture and sensitive assay workflows.
Key Features
- High-Throughput Pipetting: Enables simultaneous transfer of 96 or 384 samples in a single motion, significantly increasing workflow efficiency.
- Servo-Assisted Control: Unique motorized steering mechanism provides smooth, precise movement without manual strain.
- Hands-Free Operation: Automatic pipetting mode ensures reproducibility and accuracy in confined or sterile environments.
- Compact, Benchtop Design: Fits easily into standard laboratory workspaces and laminar flow cabinets.
- Quick Head Exchange: Pipetting heads can be installed or swapped in under one minute.
- Intuitive Touchscreen Interface: Simplifies setup, volume adjustment, and operation through an ergonomic control panel.
- GRIPTIPS® Technology: Guarantees perfect tip sealing, prevents tip loss, and ensures consistent aspiration across all channels.
- Flexible Pipetting Heads: Interchangeable heads for 96- and 384-channel configurations support a wide range of volumes.
- Precision and Accuracy: Designed for reproducible liquid transfers with minimal variation between wells.
- Maintenance-Free: Built for long-term reliability with minimal calibration requirements.
