The Most Comprehensive Line of Harvesters in the World

Deciding on a Brandel

After 25 years of ongoing refinement, Brandel Harvesters are quite simply the best in the world. Although a Brandel may not be the least expensive harvester on the market, its versatility and operating efficiency quickly offset any difference in initial cost. Given our reputation for reliability, you'll enjoy those savings for years to come – in fact, some of our first models are still in use.

While deciding on a Brandel has always been easy – deciding which Brandel took a bit more time. Our unmatched variety of models, formats, options and accessories made the process a bit daunting, so, we've reorganized our product line and our web site to simplify the process for you.

We suggest you first consider whether you plan to use a direct radioactive plate reader or a liquid scintillation counter after harvesting, and then follow the menu at left. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to call. Tell us how you plan to use your harvester and we'll be happy to help identify the system that best suits your needs.

Fully-Automated Harvesters for
Direct Radioactive Plate Readers

Semi-Automated Harvesters for
Direct Radioactive Plate Readers

Fully-automated harvesters are designed for integration into high-throughput workflows using a robotic arm. The robotic arm loads and unloads samples before and after harvesting, and the harvester performs all other functions according to your specific protocol. Built-in sensors, safety protocols and several high-throughput options permit unattended operation.
