during an ongoing application.

maximum stacking height is 126 mm. Stacked labware must have the same properties, e.g. name,
geometry, and bottom tolerance.
The gripper only transports one part at a time. The gripper can stack plates or unstack a stack of plates.
You can stack the following plates:
• EP_pDNA_96_MTP
• EP_TT_PCR_150
• EP_TT_PCR_40

Liquids cannot be transferred in a plate stack.
