The Walkabot system is designed to provide you with a movable platform for high throughput direct analysis in real time (DART®) capability. The AutoDART-96 is positioned on the Walkabot surface while all of the control and power distribution for the system are located under the table top making it possible to move your DART capability between different LC/MS instrument systems in your laboratory or elsewhere in your company. The Walkabot allows you to complete high resolution accurate mass analysis with your AccuTOFTM in the morning and MS/MS with your triple quadrupole instrument in the afternoon.

We understand that many instruments in your laboratory provide unique information about samples that you routinely analyze. We also know that moving these instruments is not an option. The Walkabot provides you the means to reposition your desorption ionization source in minutes in front of the instrument you need to use to solve your problem. The use of "electric table" technology provides the means to raise or lower the source to align with your atmospheric pressure inlet (API) of your different mass spectrometers. Alignment of the instrument is completed by matching docking components from your lab bench with the Walkabot dock. Ions are transferred from the ionization region of the source to your mass spectrometer through one of our custom ion guides designed to suit your application and instrument configuration. Once your Walkabot is in place you are ready to generate data.

Alternate Configurations:

Walkabot S
For use with selected LC/MS systems where there is limited movement between instruments. The "S" instrument table provides a stable platform for robotics and source mount required for operations at high speed. The "S" table legs have fixed positions, which means less flexibility in positioning.
