"The processes in our lab constantly change, requiring quick reconfiguration of our automation to support new technologies within fixed footprints. Modular Nucleus carts from HighRes Biosolutions adapt easily to our evolving needs and ensure we have the right hardware when we need it. With Nucleus, we can reconfigure and redeploy our systems to meet new technological demands within a standard workday."

Pods
The foundational element of a Nucleus System. A Pod provides a rigid, fixed base platform where the robotic arm is stably mounted, establishing the mechanical reference point for the entire workcell. From this foundation, tables and carts that house scientific instruments interface in a standardized, repeatable way, enabling reliable robot access. ACell, MCell, and ZCell Arms can be mounted on Pods.
Rails
For Nucleus Systems that require integration of more instruments, a Rail can be chosen as the foundational element. The robot is mounted directly to the Rail, extending its working envelope and increasing the number of devices it can reach along a defined axis. This enables a single robot to service multiple tables and carts while maintaining consistent alignment, accuracy and repeatability. ACell and MCell Arms can be mounted on Rails.
ACell Arm
A compact collaborative robotic arm designed for laboratory automation workflows that require a small footprint.
MCell Arm
A collaborative robotic arm that balances footprint and reach.
ZCell Arm
A high-performance collaborative robotic arm designed for large-scale and more complex automation systems. ZCell offers extended reach.
MicroDock
MicroDock provides a standardized mechanical and electrical interface that allows carts and devices to dock with repeatable accuracy. Integrated power, communication, and gas connections ensure consistent alignment, reliable robot access, and fast, predictable system reconfiguration.
Tables
Fixed-position work surfaces that provide mechanical stability and precise alignment for robotic access. Tables establish consistent reference points for instruments and support seamless integration of bench top devices within a Nucleus System. Configurable with shelving or slide/turntable accessories to enable further flexibility and user access.
Carts
Mobile, dockable platforms built around the MicroDock interface. Carts allow instruments to be wheeled into position and locked into automated workflows with repeatable positioning and integrated utilities.
