For a small lab looking for an affordable liquid handling robot with low
consumables use, I would consider the Gryphon dropsetter. If you wish it
can be equipped for LCP. The latest software also allows the
nano-dispenser to be used for random microseeding. (We are about to try
that out on a current problem child.) We use our Gryphon in a laboratory
that is populated with undergraduate researchers, where it has served us
very well. Ours gets frequent but not heavy use. It pairs nicely with
the Scorpion for making screen blocks for optimization.
Cheers,

Dear CCP4ers,
Sorry for the off topic question. A friend of mine is considering
purchasing a crystallization screening robot and would like to know
which one would suit his need best. His lab would use the robot
occasionally for screening and have a limited budget. He also wants
minimum supply purchases for the robot. Could you kindly suggest some
models? Thanks!
Btw, I have personally used Douglas OryX, ARI crystal Pheonix,
Mosquito and Hydra II-Edrop systems.
Best,
Jinyi
