Colony Picker Leasing for Labs
Automate colony selection and plating—without tying up your budget. Lease the colony picker that fits your workflow.
What Is a Colony Picker?
A colony picker automates the identification and selection of microbial colonies from agar plates or petri dishes. It’s widely used in synthetic biology, protein engineering, and high-throughput screening workflows. These systems improve consistency, reduce contamination risk, and streamline downstream analysis across R&D and production environments.
Why Lease a Colony Picker?
Manually picking colonies is labor-intensive and prone to human error. Automated colony pickers improve speed, consistency, and sterility across cloning, transformation, and protein expression workflows. But these high-throughput systems—especially those with integrated imaging, robotics, and software—can come at a steep price.
Leasing gives your lab access to reliable automation without straining capital budgets. It’s an ideal option for synthetic biology startups, screening facilities, and microbial engineering teams that need scalable tools. With leasing, you can stay flexible and responsive as project demands grow—without being locked into outdated tech.
Where Leasing a Colony Picker Adds Value
Colony pickers accelerate microbial screening, clone selection, and library preparation workflows—but systems with high-throughput imaging, robotics, and data integration can be expensive to purchase outright.
Leasing is especially valuable when:
- You're scaling synthetic biology, protein engineering, or strain development and need faster selection without large capital spend.
- Your team requires precision picking, traceability, or integration with LIMS or incubators.
- You’re outfitting a high-throughput screening facility and want to preserve budget for downstream analytics.
Whether you're optimizing throughput or improving reproducibility, leasing a colony picker helps you move faster while staying financially flexible.

Helping Scientists Scale & Succeed
"We used Excedr when it was time for us to make a large capital equipment purchase and the whole leasing process was smooth, quick, and seamless.
As a busy start-up CEO, I am always aware of how important it is to keep our science progressing while on a tight budget.
Working with Excedr made it possible for us to accelerate our scientific discovery pipeline without a large outlay of capital."
