Achieve highly accurate microdosing control

The CPC Biotech Q-Drive-Alpha is a fully integrated drive system optimized for precise microdosing, designed for use in both laboratory and production environments. Housed in a durable stainless-steel enclosure, it features an intuitive 7-inch color touchscreen that provides comprehensive control over key operating parameters, including flow rate and dose volume. The Q-Drive-Alpha also supports automated processes through programmable loops, adjustable pause functions, and user-defined dispensing sequences. Additional features, such as self-priming, reverse motor drive for pressure venting, and onboard memory capable of storing up to eight dispensing programs, help streamline operation while delivering accuracy, repeatability, and ease of use.
