ACTOR™ SM: Automated Crystal Transfer, Orientation and Retrieval for small molecule crystallography

Run all day

ACTOR SM, offering fully automated sample handling of up to 96 crystals, is the latest development in the ACTOR series of crystallographic automation systems.

Run all night

ACTOR SM will let you perform more experiments and produce more structures.

Run all the time

ACTOR SM is the world's first commercial robotic system for automated handling of crystals for small molecule structure determination. The system provides automatic crystal transport, centering, and retrieval, offering the user complete lights-out operation. 

When coupled with Rigaku diffractometers and Rigaku's turnkey automated structure solution software, ACTOR SM offers fully automated crystal screening and complete structure solution capabilities.
