Specialist capabilities

The following features are offered by our BioPhotonics Technology Centre

Feature: Product Evaluation

Sometimes it can be difficult to know exactly what you’re looking for. In the complex world of BioPhotonics, we provide expert advice to help you find the right product for your application.

To allow you to evaluate the product before purchase, we organize product demos either at our facility or at your location. Especially for more complex products, we also offer training sessions and workshops.

For this purpose, our company building is excellently equipped with appropriate dark rooms and training rooms.

Feature: Custom Design

Some experimental challenges cannot be solved with available standard components. We help you develop tailored components or complete custom solutions. We take the time to understand the research needs and apply our technical expertise in BioPhotonics and Life Sciences technologies.

With our manufacturers and cooperation partners, we at Acal BFi have a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers and can fully address your product design requirements. Whether it’s custom laser combiners, fluorescence illumination systems, optical stimulation systems, or entire microscope systems, we are the right partner for you.

Feature: Technology Integrations

Our ability to integrate various technologies into your solution is based on the extensive expertise of our staff and their ability to collaborate with other technology centers within the company to support your needs.

When you come to us, you benefit not only from our knowledge from the BioPhotonics Technology Center but also from the existing capabilities of Acal BFi.

It is this unique breadth of offerings that sets us apart from others and enables us to provide you with a powerful, integrated custom technology solution.

Feature: System Maintenance / Service Plan

Our engineers are trained by our partner suppliers and bring years of experience to provide you with competent, direct, and prompt advice on service matters. Our on-site service or remote support via the Internet is one of our strengths, assisting our users in working with the systems supplied by Acal BFi. To prepare your research projects for the future, we are happy to develop customized maintenance contracts and service plans, which are particularly important for larger research facilities with complex microscope systems.

If it ever becomes necessary, we will promptly advise you on suitable replacement products to minimize downtime in the research process. We ensure that you have all the information you need to make the right decisions for your research facility.

Application Consulting

In the field of BioPhotonics and Life Sciences, there are sometimes complex and non-trivial applications. We take the time to understand your research needs, advise you on application possibilities, and explain the various options available.

With our manufacturers and cooperation partners, we at Acal BFi have a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers and can fully address your requirements and product design. We are happy to advise you in areas such as camera technologies, lighting systems like TIRF or confocal microscopy, super-resolution or stimulation systems for UV ablation, FRAP, photoactivation, and optogenetics.
