The screens where KineticON was born.

PleniDose is the precision cartridge-filling gantry Bogdan Dicoias designed and built at Panacea Bio Chem. Its control software is where every KineticON idea met a real machine first: a controller link that can drop, a frame that has to be trusted, a brake with an order, and a run that must refuse to start until it has earned it.

About these screenshots. Captured on 17 September 2026 from the PleniDose software running on its developer simulation backend — the same pages and the same code the operator uses on the bench, with no hardware attached. That is why every position reads 0.00, the KineticON™ link reads CLOSED and so many pages say NOT READY. The refusals are the point.

On the bench

The PleniDose Gantry, controlled by S3Pulse and KineticON.

One gantry runs both product lines. Lyoprester builds the dual-chamber cartridge; Liquiprester fills and closes the liquid one.

Aliquoting and crimping. The eight-cannula head fills a loaded holder and the crimper closes it, under S3Pulse and KineticON control — axes, pumps, tool change and run state driven as one machine.

Liquiprester. The titanium holder (Ti 6Al-4V ELI, Gr23-medical) and the finished cartridge: filled, plunger seated, crimped closed.

Lyoprester — dual chamber

Five moves, one cartridge

Peptidic liquid aliquoting, prior to lyophilization
Middle plunger insertion
P-EARLs aliquoting
Top plunger enclosing of P-EARLs, without air bubbles
Cartridge enclosure by crimping the alu/septa cap

Liquiprester — liquid cartridge

Three moves, one cartridge

Plunger insertion
Peptidic liquid
Cartridge closure, without air bubbles

Every step above is a motion with a position, a tool and an order that must hold — which is the whole reason KineticON exists.

What the motion is for

A cartridge is finished by movements, so the movements decide what it is worth.

The closure that leaves no air bubble is not a detail of the recipe; it is a plunger arriving at one position, at one rate, in one order. Trapped oxygen does not sit there politely — it reacts, and it spends the shelf life of the peptide doing so. Panacea removes it before the cartridge is closed with OxyDeplete™, dissolves argon into the liquid and seals under it with ArgonLock™, and puts the catalysts that would drive oxidation out of reach with RedoxVault™. Together with the rest of the Panacea stack, that is what makes the peptidic liquid in a Panacea cartridge the longest-lived on the market.

The same discipline decides the dose. IncreSure™ verifies the API in each pen increment rather than trusting the dial, which is only possible when the piston travel behind that increment is a measured motion. ElimiVoid™ clears the compressible void in front of the dose without moving the rear plunger or withdrawing a microlitre of API — an operation defined entirely by which axis may move and which must not. And Cryoviscous™ holds the formulation cold, stiff and slow so it can be placed precisely, which changes the force, the timing and the settle the machine has to get right.

Motion integrity is not the point of the machine. It is the condition every one of these technologies depends on — the reason KineticON exists, and the reason it was born on this gantry. The full machine story lives on plenidose.com.

15 screens, one machine

SCREEN 01 / 15

One application, one machine, two production modes

The PleniDose home screen. Lyoprester handles dual-chamber cartridges (peptidic liquid and P-EARLs aliquoting, middle- and top-plunger pushing); Liquiprester handles liquid cartridges (aliquoting and cartridge closure). The status bar never leaves the top of the screen: simulation badge, the KineticON™ controller link, pump state, X / Y / Z position in millimetres, frame trust and STOP.

Machine Status: readiness is a list of reasons, not a green light

Live status, controller link and frame, the Z brake and the crimper, and one readiness list per workflow. Each missing item says why it is missing and carries a button to the page that fixes it; each commissioned item keeps its value — brake release delay 900 ms, coil release budget 240 s.

Commission the holder: three captures, one diagonal proof

The first row is taught at filling depth and one travel Z serves every row. The machine then predicts the far-left corner from the taught row and the measured plate pitch, and the operator descends there to confirm. The deviation report compares CAD with what was taught — here a taught row pitch of 14.112 mm against a 13.0 mm plate. The screen's own rule: big numbers mean the plate sits crooked; re-seat it and re-teach, never force it.

Prepare the run: a dose plan at a calibrated speed

Two group volumes — left pump for cannulas 1–4, right pump for 5–8 — with submerge wait, tip-track rise, anti-drip pull-back and a single- or two-speed finish. A speed that has not been calibrated keeps the run NOT READY, and the page shows how far the measurement has got: 0 of 3 points at 30 rpm.

Production: the holder map is the run

The 16 × 36 holder drawn as the run itself. Every well carries its state — pending, in progress, done, skipped, or uncertain and waiting for a recovery decision — beside live counters and the readiness verdict, here 12 of 21 required items complete.

Aseptic cartridge closure: one cartridge per trigger

The 36 × 16 holder drawn to scale (255 × 510 mm, pitch 16.00 × 14.11 mm): select wells, then crimp, go to, skip or include. The readiness panel blocks the run while the KineticON™ link is closed — motion refused until the link is restored — and asks for re-verification because the last geometry confirmation predates geometry fingerprinting. Every run starts at 1A, the near-right corner, and walks one commissioned snake.

Crimper commissioning: geometry taught once, anchored to the frame

The saved first crimp position, row and column pitches, crimp Z, travel Z and park offset. The grid is frame-anchored, so a recalibration shifts it back onto the taught holes, and the page checks that all 576 positions and the park point lie inside the saved travel limits.

Z brake: a checklist attested in order

Diagnostic release and engage switch only the brake output — no Z motion. The commissioning checklist runs in order: relay click verified; brake releases while commanded on; re-engages while commanded off; a STOP or abort returns the brake to locked; then a tiny braked Z jog, which unlocks only after the first four are ticked.

X axis: commanded is not measured

Low-speed commissioning jog and a checklist from driver fitted, supply on and no alarm through microstep setting, limit sensors and direction, to commanded == measured millimetres and a return to origin. The page states it plainly: the controller readout is commanded position, not an encoder — measure the physical travel with a ruler.

Travel limits and frame: trust is re-earned after a power cycle

The frame is open-loop, so it is recalibrated after a power cycle and re-referencing is manual only. FULL CLEAR is attested per tool, the lowest Z point is a saved number, and while Z is below travel height manual X / Y jogs are held to ±2 mm around the descent point.

Holders: one record per tool, fingerprinted

Rods head, cannula head and crimper head each keep an identity, a revision, an operator-attested mount confirmation and their taught heights. Any change re-fingerprints the record, and the witnessed dry run has to be earned again.

Reservoir: a volume counted down from a switch

The low-mark level switch starts the count: from the moment it trips, every metered dispense, prime and plumbing loss is subtracted from the volume left. The books can be reconciled against a measured level, and learning resets when the plumbing changes.

Pump Service: the bench toolkit

Two dispense pumps with four-channel heads and four aspiration pumps split across all eight cannulas, with dispense, aspirate, smart prime, learned prime and a clean cycle that floods, retracts and empties the plumbing. The banner shows that in simulation nothing is sent to the pumps.

Commissioning snapshots: every setting, every coordinate, hashed

One folder per snapshot: exact copies of the configuration, the row-fill profile, the crimper holder record, position memory, the reservoir books and recipes, a sha256 manifest and a readable listing of every value — nothing typed by hand. DIFFERENCES compares the live files with a snapshot; a restore is a closed-program action, taken on purpose.

Lyoprester Session A: nine reasons not to start

Four-cartridge liquid scheduling with eight-wide rod pressing. Before a job can start, every Z height must be taught and physical execution must be commissioned; on the simulation backend the page refuses and lists all nine reasons, each with the page that resolves it.

Frequently asked

Frequently asked questions

What is PleniDose?

PleniDose is Panacea Bio Chem's precision cartridge-filling gantry, designed and built by Bogdan Dicoias. One application runs two production modes on one machine: Lyoprester for dual-chamber cartridges and Liquiprester for liquid cartridges, including aseptic cartridge closure.

How is PleniDose related to KineticON?

KineticON grew out of building PleniDose. The problems its software had to solve on a real gantry — a controller link that drops, a frame that must be re-trusted after a power cycle, brake order on the vertical axis, commanded position that is not measured position, and runs that must refuse until they are ready — are the problems KineticON turns into a motion-control architecture.

Were these screenshots taken on the real machine?

They were captured from the real PleniDose software running on its developer simulation backend, with no hardware connected. The pages and code are the ones used on the bench; positions read 0.00 and the controller link reads closed because nothing was attached.

Why do so many screens say NOT READY?

Because the software lists every reason it will not run — an untaught height, an unverified frame, a closed controller link — and links each one to the page that resolves it. With no hardware attached, those reasons stay open, which shows the refusals clearly.
