Picture your workflow
What needs to be ready before sequencing?

Walk through transfers, cleanup, any required centrifugation, thermal cycling and pooling with your team. The right starting point is your library-preparation method and its quality checks.

The workflow challenge

NGS library prep, connected.

Disconnected preparation steps add handoffs and make it harder to keep samples and process timing aligned.

A starting point for your configuration

The pieces of your workflow.

Illustrative product selection. Final configuration depends on the method, labware and intended use.

The BioNex Hive integrated automation platform
Integrated automation

Hive

Bring instruments, robotics and storage together in one modular, vertical automation platform.

BumbleBee pipetting channels and plate stations
Sample handling

BumbleBee

Flexible sample transfers and hit picking, with plates exchanged while pipetting continues.

HiG automated centrifuge on a laboratory bench
Automated centrifugation

HiG

Keep required spin steps in your automated workflow, with robotic access for plate loading and unloading.

Keep the spin step connected

When your method calls for a spin.

A centrifugation step can become a manual handoff between instruments. HiG gives robots direct access to its buckets, so plate loading and unloading can be part of the automated process.

Within the Hive

Plan centrifugation alongside liquid handling, storage and the other devices your library-preparation method requires.

With your liquid handler

Explore HiG integration with compatible liquid-handling systems and robotic plate movers. Our team can review device access, labware and spin requirements with you.

Make it specific to your lab

Bring the details.
We’ll build from there.

Our applications team starts with your method and the constraints that matter to you.

  1. Library-preparation method and kit
  2. Centrifugation, thermal, magnetic and sealing requirements
  3. Batch size, pooling and traceability
