High-speed printing

Electro-Steering

Name: Electro-Steering
Brand: Morrigan Dynamics

Electrostatically steer microdrops towards small targets with an ultra-high-speed printing system.

The revolutionary electro-steering technology from Polypico controls the trajectory of droplets in free space. The system can print 2D patterns at speeds which can be orders of magnitude faster than any traditional printers. The electro-steering system has been designed especially for small targets which need high positional placement accuracy, e.g.: TEM grids; micro-needle arrays; sensor chips; etc. Customisation is possible for larger footprint targets.

Features & Benefits

Patented disposable dispensing cartridge technology

No cross-contamination by design, change fluids in a matter of minutes, no wastage of precious fluids, with a nozzle anti-clogging feature.

More about our disposable cartridges

Ultra-low volume dispensing

Single drop volumes can be programmed to be any volume in the range of 5pl to 120pl (contingent on well-engineered fluids).

Ultra-high speed 2D printing

Print 2D patterns at high speed with high placement accuracy and no moving parts. Print speeds dependent on target pattern complexity and required volume per deposition. For example, less than 4 seconds to print 200 discrete locations on a 10mm square target, with 2nl deposited per target.

Customisable

Custom configurations are possible to suite specific application requirements.

Ongoing software upgrades

Keep up to date with the latest features and capabilities.

1-year & extended warranties

Includes a 1-year parts and labour, return to factory warranty. Option to extend the warranty for 3 to 5-years also available.
