Lab automation demands both efficiency and high-throughput. LCXR‑100 delivers a benchtop platform that balances versatility and performance, with usability and productivity at its core. For routine operations, simple controls and an automation-ready design help standardize steps and cut handling time, supporting safer, more consistent outcomes across diverse research needs.
Step-Stop Benchtop Centrifuge
LCXR-100
Built for automation, LCXR‑100 combines a compact footprint with the throughput labs need.
Defined Position Stop enables reliable robotic load/unload without cameras or vision systems, and LCXR-100 supports microplates as well as bottles ranging from 1.5 mL to 250 mL while delivering performance up to 10,000 rpm / 9,390 × G (rotor dependent) when using 50 mL conical tubes.

Research—Efficiency and
Smarter Operation
Robot‑Ready Features for Safer Automation
Supporting Robotic Handling
with Defined Position Stop
The Step-Stop centrifuge precisely stops the rotor at a defined position to minimize robotic gripping (pick) errors caused by sample‑tube misalignment—enabling safer operation, reproducible results, and reliable automation.
Like boarding a Ferris wheel at the same spot every time, RESO PRO’s Defined Position Stop feature brings the rotor to a precise, predetermined position. This design makes sample loading and unloading effortless, supporting smooth robotic assistance for automated workflows.

No Camera Required
Simpler system. Greater reliability. Lower cost.
Our Defined Position Stop mechanism eliminates the need for cameras and image processing, reducing complexity and potential points of failure. This streamlined approach supports stable operation and long-term reliability for automated workflows.
-
Faster Integration:
No image processing means significantly shorter setup time for system integration.
-
Lower Initial Investment:
Eliminates expensive vision hardware and programming costs, reducing upfront expenses.
-
Reduced Maintenance:
Fewer components mean fewer failures and lower long-term costs.
Simpler Motion, Higher Efficiency
— Robotic Integration
Wide‑Open Lid—Optimized for Robotic Handling
90°+ opening for clear, direct picks
—efficiency and consistency in one design
90°+ lid opening adds clearance around the robot’s motion envelope, enabling direct picks with fewer adjustments
—helping improve throughput and maintain consistent operation.
Smarter Operation
— Clear Access with Defined Position Stop
The lid opens wide to keep the pickup area clear, and Defined Position Stop provides repeatable coordinates—standardizing robot paths and supporting smoother, more consistent operation.
Robot‑Operated Lid
— Simple Control, Automatic Locking
Lid opening and closing are handled by the robot—keeping control simple. Fewer built‑in mechanisms simplify integration and maintenance, while the centrifuge automatically locks the lid during runs and releases after full stop—supporting safer, consistent operation.
Versatile Rotor Options — Angle and Swing for
Diverse Formats
Angle and swing out rotors support formats from 1.5–2.0 mL microtubes and 15 / 50 mL conical tubes to micro / deep-well plates and up to 250 mL bottles. Select the configuration that fits your workflow. Capacity and performance are rotor-dependent.
Angle & Swing Out Rotors — Built for Flexible Workflows
Supports swing out rotors
and robust angle rotors with 7,000–10,000 rpm capability.
Featured Swing Out Rotors
The swing out rotor covers a wide range of centrifugation tasks—handling formats from 1.5 mL tubes to 250 mL bottles, as well as microplates.
Swing out rotor: TS-33R
Swing out rotor: TS-41R
Featured Angle Rotors
Wide rotor lineup for formats from 1.5 mL microtubes to 50 mL conical tubes, with 7,000–10,000 rpm capability.
Angle rotor: CA-8R
Angle rotor: CA-16R
Quick & Secure Rotor Locking
One-push rotor locking knob
With a single knob push, the rotor can be quickly and securely fixed.
*Some rotors are excepted.
To mount the rotor
Place the locking knob on the shaft and secure the rotor to the shaft by pressing the red snap on the locking knob down the shaft until it “clicks”.
To dismount the rotor
Pull the locking knob out from the shaft, while holding down the red snap on the top.
Intuitive Display and Control Panel
Easy-to-see LCD monitor display shows various information including remaining run time, error messages, rotor types in use and records of centrifugal operation.
* Indication displays on the control panel in the photo is different from displays of actual operation.
Dual color LED display allows the user to monitor the operation status just by looking the display; red indicates that the rotor is spinning while green indicates the rotor is stopped.
Three-step acceleration and three-step and natural
deceleration
Initial values for acceleration and deceleration characteristics are set from 0 to 500rpm, however, they can be varied up to maximum speed in 100rpm increments by function settings.
