Automation in colony picking has taken a major leap forward. Hudson’s RapidPick™ family delivers AI‑ready imaging, high‑accuracy inoculation, and throughput options that scale from compact benchtop units to fully integrated workcells — all designed to fit seamlessly into modern lab environments.
Why RapidPick™ stands out:
- Up to 3,000 colonies/hour depending on model, with >99% inoculation accuracy
- Supports AI pipelines with full-plate images and complete colony metadata for advanced classification pipelines
- Flexible picking methods: tungsten-pin or pipette-tip for bacterial, yeast, fungal, plaque, and filamentous colonies
- Modular expansion — from standalone devices to fully automated workcells as needs evolve
- Reliable heat‑coil sterilization to prevent contamination and ensure reproducibility
A solution for every scale:
RapidPick™ SP – Single-pin precision for small to medium throughput
RapidPick™ MP – 20-pin high-throughput multi-pin picking for industrial and CRO workflows
RapidPick™ Lite – Semi-automated walk-away plate handling
RapidPick™ Complete – Fully automated, high throughput, end-to-end integrated workcell
RapidPick™ Harvester™ – Pipette-tip extraction for challenging samples
Whether you’re scaling up cloning workflows, accelerating microbiome research, or building AI-driven screening pipelines, RapidPick™ systems deliver the speed, accuracy, and flexibility modern labs demand.
