Automated Robotics for Chemistry (ARC)

Led by Professor Ian Fairlamb, the ARC Lab offers a range of robotics and technologies to automate, optimise and understand chemical processes, depending on your reaction needs and outcomes. 

It is capable of solid and liquid handling, high-throughput reactions (48 and 96), photo-catalysis, flow reactions and more. 

Services

• Chemspeed ISYNTH liquid handling and reaction platform
• Chemspeed Crystal Powderdose solid dispensing unit
• Bespoke, in-house, high-throughput photo-catalytic flow system

We can also assist with the automated processing of LC-MS and NMR datasets and conduct reaction outcome trend analysis using various data science tools.

Other systems:

• Photocatalytic flow systems
• Thermomixer reaction block
• Radley’s Carousel’s
