Customer Visit – Improving Together
Recently, we conducted a customer visit at a long-standing partner near Heidelberg, specializing in the production of blood group reagents. Since purchasing a HEROLAB HiCen GR centrifuge in 2016, the company has been using the device intensively on a daily basis. The centrifuge continues to impress with its excellent performance and impeccable condition to this day.
HEROLAB supports the customer annually with regular maintenance and technical inspections carried out by our after-sales service. During our visit, the customer reported:
“HEROLAB devices operate extremely reliably and rarely experience downtime. This greatly increases our production efficiency and the quality of our products. We are also very satisfied with HEROLAB’s technical support.”
These customer visits are part of our commitment to maintaining close contact with our customers and actively incorporating their feedback into our work. Throughout this year, we aim to further intensify this exchange and continuously improve.

HEROLAB supports science education: Discovering the magic of UV light!
HEROLAB recently successfully cooperated with the Armin-Knab-Gymnasium in Germany and hosted an exciting scientific event that attracted many students and visitors.
At a total of 30 research stations, HEROLAB UV lamps were the centerpiece of the mineral display.
A particularly noteworthy specimen was a rare triangle calcite mineral from China. Under the professional shortwave UV lighting from HEROLAB, the rare earth elements embedded in the crystal appeared as glowing triangular patterns, captivating everyone present.
We are pleased that HEROLAB UV lamps are not only valued in research but also have a significant impact in science education and public outreach.
A heartfelt thanks to the Armin-Knab-Gymnasium for providing these great photos!

HEROLAB RobotCen Centrifuge Recognized in ACS Nano for Supporting Automated Laboratories
We are thrilled to see the HEROLAB RobotCen centrifuge featured in the latest ACS Nano publication “A Self-Driving Lab for Nano- and Advanced Materials Synthesis” by the research team at Germany’s Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM).
In this study, the researchers built a fully automated Self-Driving Lab (SDL) for the synthesis, purification, and in-line characterization of nano- and advanced materials. The HEROLAB RobotCen temperature-controlled centrifuge played a key role in the efficient separation of nanomaterials, ensuring high precision and reproducibility within the automated workflow.
Direct Quote from the Paper:
“A temperature-controlled RobotCen (Herolab) centrifuge amenable to automation with precise positioning of the rotor was used for centrifugation with an AF 8.50.3 rotor with a maximum capacity of 8 × 50 mL.”
— ACS Nano (2025), Zaki et al.
This recognition highlights HEROLAB’s commitment to high-performance and automation-compatible centrifuge solutions and further validates the value of our equipment in smart laboratory environments.
As laboratory automation advances, precision and reproducibility in centrifugation are more crucial than ever. At HEROLAB, we continue to innovate, providing scientists and researchers worldwide with cutting-edge, automation-ready centrifuge solutions!
A big thank you to the BAM research team for their trust and acknowledgment! If your lab is looking for a high-efficiency, automation-friendly centrifuge, feel free to reach out to us.
