GERSTEL autosampling and sample preparation robot

GERSTEL has more than 40 years of experience with the production of advanced instrumentation for chemical analysis by gas chromatography or HPLC.

Automation

Among the GERSTEL products you will find instrumentation for automated sample preparation, and for various kinds of GC and LC sample introduction techniques.

GERSTEL has adopted a modular approach – in particular this enables a smooth extension or adaption for specific analysis purposes.

The Maestro software – fully integrated

All of the GERSTEL instrumentation is controlled from the Maestro program – GERSTELS own and in-house developed softtware. Working with simple autosampler functions or with advanced sample preparation, derivatisation, weighing or centrifugation, the basis software is the same.

The GERSTEL instruments can be mounted on and work with chromatographic equipment from literally any instrument supplier.

With instruments from Agilent Technologies the Maestro software will integrate seamlessly into any of the Agilent ChemStation, OpenLab or MassHunter programmes.

Quality and traditions

The GERSTEL products are produced in Mülheim an der Ruhr in Germany.

Thus, the entire process from R&D actitivites through the production of hardware and development of software is taking place in-house in a family-owned German company with strong roots in quality and craftsmanship.

The GERSTEL MPS 2/3 concept

The overall idea of the GERSTEL concept is automation of classical sample preparation and injection techniques for GC and LC analysis.

In most applications this is done by combining the conventional autosampler MPS Robotic with the injector and/or thermal desorber and binding it together with the innovative GERSTEL Maestro software. The software therefore also turns from classic auto sampling to true robot functions.

Automatic sample preparation

Almost all types of pre-chromatographic sample preparation may be automated, from centrifugation, filtration, sonication, SPE, solvent phases separation, internal standard preparation over thermal desorption or large volume injections or heart cutting of sample column fractions for further detailed analysis of complicated matrices. The combination of all modules is strictly modular, and the use and combination of these is completely up to the user.

The result is the best possible sample preparation and good chromatography, most often combined with better statistical data as automation is less error prone.

The recent product line, MPS Robotic series, allows the exchange of the internal injection head, which enables the possibility to exchange between for example ordinary liq. injection, sample prep syringes and/or an SPME tool. For fast applications however, we still recommend a two head system as this enables a slightly faster turnover.

When designing systems for customer applications we ensure that all parts needed for the application are included in our quotations. We also try to anticipate future use of the system to ensure reasonable upgrading possibilities.

We deliver a complete solution

Reduced cost – better safety and productivity

The investment in automation will lead to a decrease in the use of resources, such as sample volume, use of solvents and chemicals and other laboratory equipment.

No more unilaterally repeated work. With the MPS to do the hard work, the employees’ time can be spent on the more interesting parts of the process.
