Yes! You can slow it down to pipette more viscous liquids, and vice versa.
The speeds can be set through aspirate_speed and dispense_speed. The values are in millimeters/minute, and default to aspirate_speed=300 and dispense_speed=500.
Example:
pipette = instruments.Pipette(
axis='b',
name='my-p200-multichannel',
max_volume=200,
min_volume=20,
channels=8,
aspirate_speed=300,
dispense_speed=500
)
