I work with a very small group at HP that uses inkjet technology to dispense fluids for work in life sciences. Basically, inkjet TIJ technology lets you dispense very precise amounts of material with very precise timing. Normally that's just ink, but you can do it with quite a few other things.
In our case, what we do is dispense liquids that normally would be done with a micropipette. We can mix up to 8 different materials in different combinations as part of various life sciences experiments.
- justinclift 7y agoGuessing you're in the group that makes these? https://www8.hp.com/us/en/commercial-printers/specialty-printing-systems/products.html https://www8.hp.com/us/en/commercial-printers/specialty-prin... There's no pricing on that page. :( Any idea what kind of price (even range) they're in?
- pugworthy 7y agoThese here -> https://www8.hp.com/us/en/commercial-printers/specialty-printing-systems/d300.html https://www8.hp.com/us/en/commercial-printers/specialty-prin... I'm not 100% sure of the price but ... well we don't sell them at Best Buy :) The whole SPS group (Specialty Print Systems) focuses on using the inkjet technology for things HP may wish to not sell or market to directly. Like barcode printers, etc. Definitely reach out via the contact info at the bottom if you're interested.
- justinclift 7y agoThanks, that's the page I thought I linked to, but didn't get right. :) Was asking mostly from curiosity, as I've been helping out a local Community Biolab recently with "tech stuff" ;). Will remember to point it out to the people there when I'm next in, likely after this COVID thing dies down. Hopefully. :)
