General Specifications

NanoPrint™ uses 3 linear drives for X, Y and Z axis positioning combined with a proprietary linear drive motion control technology for superior positional resolution and accuracy
The X, Y - axis positional resolution is 500 nm.
The high speed, high precision linear servo control system of the NanoPrint™ produces superior instrument performance that is essentially free of friction, noise and thermal emission.

NanoPrint™ uses a Z-axis encoder reading at 250-nanometers resolution leading to a superior Z-Axis Resolution for Optimum Spot Morphology. NanoPrint™ offers highly precise resolution, repeatability and computer control over the speed and acceleration settings to ensure optimal printing onto any surface taking into account the biological samples to be printed. Optimal parameters are set at the factory but can be easily changed by the user for printing onto many different surfaces with different samples. The user gets a license to be allowed to use this patented technology.

The figure above shows 3 Z-Axis moves to configure ; distance, speed and acceleration are the parameters to set : Z Profile: High speed Z Extend: Printing speed Z Retract: Quick return

Fig.1: this picture shows three 348-wells microplates, the wash/dry module with sonicator (upper part of the picture) and the printhead and pins printing onto glass substrates (middle left). NanoPrint™ deck is configured in a module manner, allowing different worktables to be inserted and removed from the deck allowing users to easily switch between different printing applications such as glass substrates, microplates, and proprietary cassettes and cartridges or other types of substrates.

Fig.2: NanoPrint™ is equipped with a Pin Cleaning Module that has a station providing pin washing, drying and sonication (downwards). The sonicator is filled and emptied during the print run in a completely automated manner.Systems sensors prevent splashing and overflowing for pin and deck safety. Drying is accomplished by vacuum using a quiet but powerful ACM-controlled (Accessory Module Control) function. The Pin Cleaning Module is rugged, durable and easy to maintain.

Fig.3: Here the deck is configured with a capacity of three 384-well sample microplates printing onto 60 standard glass slide substrates using a printhead loaded with 48 pins. A 192-pin printhead can also be used instead of the 48-pin printhead.

Fig.4: The screenshot shows a worktable allowing printing into 15 microplates (96-well) for the NanoPrint™ LM60. On the left part, three 348-well sample microplates with the pin cleaning module (wash/dry station with sonicator) can be seen.

Fig.5: The ACM (Accessory Control Module) unit provides computer control for the wash/dry, humidity, and ultrasonication stations on the deck of the NanoPrint™. Accurate sensing of the humidity inside the chamber assures that proper humidity levels are achieved and maintained during the entire duration of each print run. Humidity is maintained in a user-specified manner of ±1%. HEPA filtration protect the deck from dust to assure the necessary printing quality. Printing onto the worktables and control of the Pin Cleaning Module and the humidity are easily specified in software using the Microarray Manager.

Fig.6: Easy connectivity (pump, tubing and connectors) between the ACM and the robot provides proper humidity and tigthness levels.

Fig.7: Humidity Sensing	Fig.8: Peltier system

Fig.7: A RH sensor monitors the humidity inside the chamber with high accuracy.Together with the ACM, it assures that proper humidity levels are achieved and maintained during the entire duration of each print run.
The humidification and dehumidification systems are triggered by the RH sensor that automatically maintain the levels set by the user.

Fig.8: NanoPrint™ systems offer sophisticated sample microplates cooling via Peltier s an affordable and highly recommended option in order to minimize sample evaporation during printing. Microplate cooling is highly recommended for protein microarray applications to minimize protein denaturation and microbial growth in recombinant protein samples. The Peltier module fits directly beneath the 348-well sample microplate for highly efficient cooling while maintaining a low deck profile.
