Why Design with BioFlex?
Bioflex is a prototyping and automation platform consisting of:
NI sbRIO & Circaflex controller for I/O integration & flexible automation
Linux Real-Time, LabVIEW, other tools for controls, inline analysis, and model-based inference from labs to production floors
Versatile UIs and networking for enhanced data visibility and continuous feature delivery
Cyth start up assistance for free bring-up support and system integration
Deliver your IP faster
Develop on a flexible architecture allowing you to focus on your differentiation, not custom hardware development.
Validate process design
Easily modify parameter, test functionality, and measure yield to optimize performance before scale-up
Maximize control
Integrate any sensor and refine real-time algorithms for deterministic, repeatable processes.
Capture & analyze data
Log directly on the system or connect to a network for data analysis and model refinement
System Features
Prototype and validate processes faster with a proven automation platform
Interfaces
