DMP-5005 material printer is a large format, noncontact fluid deposition system. Is capable of jetting fluids using the 16-jet, 1 or 10 picoliter user-fillable cartridges, and up to 5 sequentially operating 128-jet, 1 or 10 picoliter printheads with up to 5 different functional fluids. One picoliter cartridge can deposit features as small as 20 µm and below. Has a printable area of 500mm x 500mm and maintains a positional accuracy and repeatability of ±5 and ±1 µm, respectively. Uses a temperature controlled vacuum platen to register, maintain and thermally manage substrates during printing. Substrates include plastic, glass, ceramics, and silicon, as well as flexible substrates ranging from membranes, gels, and thin films to paper products. An integrated drop visualization system captures droplet formation images as droplet ejection parameters are adjusted. Each printhead calibrated on per nozzle basis. Includes second camera.

BZ-9000 (Biorevo) microscope performs fluorescence, bright field and phase-contrast imaging on a variety of specimen without the need for a darkroom. Is fully motorized; has six-objective lens revolver, motorized stage, electronically controlled filter turret, and built-in sample enclosure. Is able to switch between up to four different fluorescent channels, automatically adjusting the filter and exposure time. Incorporates a single high-res, high-sensitivity 12-bit monochrome camera; can switch to color imaging. Navigation system locates areas of interest when at high-magnification by using a low-magnification image for reference. Incorporates a Z-stack and image stitching function; can stitch up to 1,200 images in XY directions. A quick full focus and Z-stack function captures focused images in seconds. Provides options for quantitative analysis, including standard 2-D measurements, cell counting and brightness analysis. A real-time 3-D module is able to generate a 3-D image of a fluorescent specimen.
