Table 1 Comparison between stop-and-go method and continuous lift method using simulated cell positions. The average time in seconds to transfer cells of five different distributions for each number of points is shown. The influence of the pause time after each stop is examined by using two different pause times. The ratio of the resulting times (stop-and-go time divided by continuous time) is also given. The maximum velocity is assumed to be 120 mm/s, a linear acceleration of 100 mm/s² is used
