instrumentZERO series
The instrumentZERO series encapsulates the unique value of M2-Automation’s technology, contained within a fully flexible, scalable and highly automated production environment. Without the need to change or reprogramme the entire setting during production, the remote-controlled software handles a variety of different products and protocols with ease.
From a few dozen to several thousand units produced per day, the almost maintenance-free iZERO reduces the changeover time to a minimum, while maximizing its productive time - making it the obvious choice to spot your future!
Key Features

Scalable
Starting with a single iZERO unit, M2-Automation’s extendable production line is able to address all needs, ranging from an early pilot phase to automated, well-engineered production.
Easy-to-use software
The iZERO is controlled using comprehensive, easy-to-use software that makes experiment setup effortless. The software is largely image-based and it reflects the instrument layout, providing a self-explanatory, systematic workflow to create, save and distribute custom-specific production protocols.
Custom options
Optionally, the iZERO can be equipped with a cooling and heating unit, humidity and CO2 control, a UV lamp, an ionizer and a piercer.
