We partner with laboratories and instrument manufacturers building advanced lab automation systems and analytical tools.

Applications include:

• Single-cell and sub-cellular workflows

• Multi-step assay automation (lysis, dilution, reaction sequencing)

• Real-time optical and spectroscopic analysis

By enabling containerless experimentation, we help partners:

• Eliminate surface artefacts

• Improve data fidelity

• Design experiments around intrinsic sample behaviour

We collaborate with OEMs and universities developing:

• Optical sorting systems

• Seed and food processing technologies

• Recycling and materials recovery platforms

Our acoustic ejection technology integrates directly into existing systems to enable:

• Multi-category sorting

• Contact-free handling

• Reduced waste and damage

This is a direct pathway for OEM technology solutions that replace mechanical and pneumatic subsystems.

At the core of every partnership is our deep expertise in:

• Ultrasonic phased arrays

• FPGA-based control electronics

• Real-time acoustic field computation

These systems enable:

• Levitation, translation, and rotation of particles and droplets

• Multi-object manipulation and merging

• High-speed, programmable actuation

We provide the foundation layer for software-defined manipulation systems.

AcoustoFab enables partners to move from manual processes to programmable workflows.

We support:

• API-driven control (Python, C++)

• Workflow orchestration for multi-step experiments

• Integration into existing automation stacks

This allows partners to:

• Rapidly prototype new processes

• Standardise complex workflows

• Scale experimental systems into production-ready platforms

We partner with teams exploring:

• Crystallisation and formulation science

• Multi-phase material systems

• Additive and contactless manufacturing

Acoustic levitation enables:

• Containerless processing

• Controlled phase transitions

• Novel fabrication pathways

If your system benefits from contact-free manipulation, it fits within our partnership scope.
