Festo will introduce several new products developed by their local LifeTech R&D team for laboratory automation at 4:00 p.m. Monday in Room 253A. These motion and fluidic technologies offer modularity, interchangeability, and software enhancements, all beneficial during this ongoing pandemic. The company will announce three new automation products, a modular gantry robot system, an air compressor system for pure air that is the size of a dictionary, and open loop pipettes. Festo has been collaborating with laboratory equipment manufacturers throughout the COVID emergency. All the products will also be at the Festo Booth #718.
