APS SHUTDOWN CONCERN?

Helix has you covered!

  • Helix maintains weekly beamtime, quite often, there are two collection days per week.

Note: If switching from ALS, it is important that you have both Unipucks and Spine caps since most modern robots here in the US and around the world only work with the Unipuck system and the pin caps must be Spine standard.
