1. A robotic system operable for transfer of fluid between a container accessible via a container-septum and a fluid transfer assembly accessible via a fluid transfer connector septum, the robotic system comprising:
a controller; and
a manipulator controllable by the controller and configured to manipulate at least one of the containers and the fluid transfer assembly,
the controller being configured to operate the manipulator to ensure a predetermined compression threshold between the container-septum and the fluid transfer connector septum is reached, for securing contact therebetween for said transfer of fluid.
