By minimizing energy consumption and reducing maintenance needs, it supports both high-performance workflows and sustainable lab practices. Compared to competing PCR thermal cyclers, it not only outperforms in throughput and reliability but also provides outstanding value with lower lifetime costs, comprehensive support, and long-term operational benefits for demanding PCR applications.
Run up to 20 low profile 384-well PCR plates per run or 16 standard 384- or 1536-well plates, supporting assay miniaturisation and ultra-high-throughput PCR workflows.
Uses up to 90% less energy than standard Peltier PCR blocks, reducing costs and environmental impact.
Three individually temperature-controlled water bath tanks.
Auto-filling and emptying of water tanks with scheduled pre-heating and shutdown.
The zero-maintenance basket design with no moving parts ensures enhanced reliability, while the intuitive touchscreen interface allows for easy setup and operation.
Compatible with high-precision PCR microplates for rapid and precise temperature control.
The GeneCycler is a next-generation PCR thermal cycler engineered to maximize throughput, precision, and sustainability. Designed for demanding workflows, it can cycle up to 25 low-profile 384-well PCR plates or 20 standard 384-well or 1536-well plates in a single run, making it ideal for high-throughput molecular applications. Its support for 384- and 1536-well plate formats makes the GeneCycler well suited for assay miniaturisation strategies that reduce reaction volumes while increasing data output. Three individually temperature-controlled water baths (40 °C–98 °C) with ±0.1 °C accuracy ensure highly reliable and reproducible PCR thermal cycling results.Â
An intuitive touchscreen interface simplifies protocol creation, editing, and real-time monitoring, while the system’s preheating function and flexible cycling modes, including standard and touchdown PCR support diverse research needs. Compared to conventional Peltier-based instruments, the GeneCycler reduces energy consumption by up to 80%, cutting operational costs while promoting sustainable lab practices. By combining advanced thermal control, exceptional capacity, and user-friendly design, this thermal cycler for PCR delivers unmatched efficiency and value.Â

Secure, airtight PCR sealing film prevents evaporation and contamination during thermal cycling for reliable results.
Unlike traditional Peltier-based PCR thermal cyclers, which typically process one plate per run, the GeneCycler can cycle up to 20–25 plates at once, significantly increasing throughput. It also offers quicker cycling times, more accurate temperature management, and consumes up to 80% less energy, reducing operational costs.
The GeneCycler supports a variety of PCR plate formats, including:
• Low-profile 384-well PCR plates (up to 25 per run).
• Standard 384-well and 1536-well PCR plates (up to 20 per run).
The instrument supports both standard PCR and touchdown PCR, offering flexibility for different experimental needs. It also features a preheating function for optimized start-up efficiency.
With its improved heating design, the GeneCycler consumes up to 80% less energy than standard Peltier block PCR systems. This not only lowers energy costs but also enhances sustainability without compromising performance.
The system features three independently controlled water baths with a temperature range of 40°C–98°C and an accuracy of ±0.1°C, ensuring highly reproducible results across all wells.
