Automated Vial Filling Workstation
VERSA 110 Automated Vial Filling Workstation
Manually filling vials with reagents is a tedious, time-consuming and error-prone process making it difficult to effectively scale up from research to full production. The VERSA™ 110 Vial Filling system is an automated liquid handling workstation designed to meet and exceed these requirements by improving accuracy and reliability. In addition, an automated vial filler must offer an acceptable confidence value to meet tight regulatory standards and satisfy growing statistical process control expectations regarding delivered reagent volumes. Automated vial filling machines must be capable of supporting a growing span of liquid products and fill sizes such as microplates, micro tubes, vials, and reagent bottles. Aurora’s VERSA™ 110 Automated Vial Filling Workstation is designed to exceed requirements for dispensing reagents or free-flowing to low-viscosity liquids into different types of containers in volumes ranging from microliter to milliliter. By automating all associated repetitive pipetting protocols, this workstation increases sample throughput while conserving expensive reagents and eliminates concerns associated with volumetric variations through handling errors.
The VERSA™ Vial Filling System is a fully customizable solution designed to meet specific production needs. Contact our sales team today to find the perfect system for your application!

We are using different size of tubes, how many of tubes can be fitted on your instrument deck, what is the throughput?
The size of clients’ tubes will be measured by Aurora’s engineering team so that we can calculate how many tubes will be able to fit on the deck per run.
Does this instrument come with a safety hood?
It is optional to have the instrument come with a safety hood that includes a HEPA filter, UV lights and ventilation modules.
Since we are using different size of tubes, how do you make sure the pipettore is able to dispense into each tubes? What would be the solution?
The dispensing channels of Aurora’s liquid handling system can be customized to have independent movement so that all pipettors can fit into any given size of the tube.
Is your instrument compatible to customized consumables (plates, vials and etc.,)?
Yes. Customers can send a sample of their customized consumables to Aurora for assessment. If it passes the assessment, an adaptor for the corresponding consumable will be built so that it can be used on our system.
Can we apply autoclave on your instrument?
Different material has different tolerance to autoclave conditions, for example: stainless steel can stand high temperature and pressure during autoclave, but some plastic may not. Please consult with Aurora’s product specialist to figure out which part of the instrument is customizable for autoclaves.
