Odds are if you have questions about a liquid handler your company is about to make a huge investment a highly specialized piece of equipment. Sure to be highly useful and expedite almost any application, there is a lot to consider before purchasing one. Get it wrong and you have a very expensive paper weight on your hands.

All pre-owned laboratory automation equipment is not the same; accuracy and precision is essential in automated liquid handling.  So before you purchase a pre-owned liquid handler or a microplate dispenser, you may want to look deeper than just the price because it may not always be what it seems.

Biodirect provides service and maintenance solutions covering a wide variety of basic & high-end technologies, giving you a one-source technical support

Low-volume liquid handling is a core component of almost every modern laboratory.  With continued advances in automated liquid handling, laboratories are realizing new gains in throughput, precision and overall efficiency. 

With these industry advances and ever-growing research demands comes a growing focus on quality. As a result most liquid handler manufacturers like Agilent, Tecan, Beckman, Perkin Elmer, and Hamilton offer services designed to test liquid handler performance so that buyers have assurance that their newly acquired instrument meets stated performance specifications. However, laboratories purchasing used and refurbished equipment from auctions or third-party vendors are often not afforded the same level of quality & technical assurance (but they should be).
