The Tecan Freedom EVO 100 is a state-of-the-art robotic colony picker, designed to enhance high-throughput microbiological research and screening applications. Engineered for accurate and reproducible microbial colony selection, the Freedom EVO 100 employs a high-resolution CCD imaging system and advanced image analysis algorithms to identify, classify, and isolate colonies based on morphological parameters such as size, shape, and optical density. This ensures a standardized selection process, minimizing variability and enhancing experimental reproducibility. The robotic arm, equipped with sterile, disposable, or reusable picking tools, ensures contamination-free transfer of colonies from solid media to liquid culture or microplate formats. The system supports multiple agar plate configurations and is compatible with a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including bacterial, yeast, and fungal species, making it highly adaptable to diverse microbiological workflows.

Controlled via Freedom EVOware®, a sophisticated yet user-friendly software interface, the system enables real-time monitoring, data logging, and traceability, ensuring compliance with rigorous laboratory standards
