Tip touch retract distance
(mm)
The vertical distance for the pins to move before
moving laterally within the well,
where
• 0 is the vertical distance equal to the well
bottom
• > 0 is the vertical distance the pins rise above
the bottom
• < 0 is the vertical distance the pins attempt to
move past the well bottom
Tip touch horizontal offset
(mm)
The horizontal distance that the pins move. The
value is based on the well diameter specified by
the labware definition,
where
• 0 is a distance equal to the well radius
• > 0 is the distance the pins attempt to move
past the well radius, which results in a more
forceful tip touch
• < 0 is a distance less than the radius of the
well, resulting in a lighter tip touch or no tip
touch
