Additional Info

Founded in Singapore in 2011, XQ Instruments (XQI) is part of the privately held XentiQ Partners group and specializes in innovative, patented laboratory automation equipment for semi-automated processes. The company’s core focus is powder dispensing and microtube handling, addressing common laboratory challenges related to manual dosing, capping consistency, and operator fatigue in high-throughput environments. 

XQ Instruments develops a range of powder dispensers, benchtop powder dosing machines, and microtube capping and de-capping systems designed to improve accuracy, repeatability, and workflow efficiency. Solutions include handheld and benchtop powder dispensers such as the SDH-1 and SDM-1 series, automated benchtop powder dosing systems like the SDB-1A and SDB-2, and vial capping and de-capping machines including the MCF-13A Auto Vial Capping Machine and MCD-13 Capping and De-capping Machine. These bench top devices support precise aliquoting standards, controlled vial filling, and consistent capping torque for screw caps and microtubes of varying cap sizes. 

XQ Instruments systems are engineered for applications requiring precise manipulation of small powder volumes, balance integration, recipe-driven software control, and compatibility with heads, racks, and trays. By reducing hand fatigue, labor fatigue, and repetitive manual capping tasks, the equipment improves occupational health and safety while maintaining calibration integrity and consistent process control. Typical use cases include drug discovery, clinical diagnostics, food laboratories, and other settings where reliable automation equipment supports research progress and sample integrity. 

MSE Supplies is an authorized distributor of XQ Instruments, providing laboratories with access to automated powder dispensing machines, microtube capping and de-capping systems, and related accessories, with products shipped directly from Singapore unless otherwise noted.
