Lab Automation

✓ Your path to the digital laboratory. The future of the lab is connected, automated, and data-driven. Concepts like “Lab 4.0” and “digital transformation” are no longer visions – they are present-day challenges: processes must become more efficient, regulations remain strict, and your lab environment must deliver on both fronts.
We help you shape this transformation – strategically and technically – by intelligently linking instruments, sensors, and software components. The result: seamless data flow and a laboratory that truly works with you.

✓ System integration that connects. Laboratory automation means heterogeneous systems must communicate reliably. We integrate analytical instruments, sensors, and control systems into existing IT architectures – from CDS to LIMS to SAP. We design robust interfaces, ensure synchronised data flows, and build adaptable modules for your specific processes.
Whether serial communication, API-based integration, or proprietary protocols – we deliver clean, documented implementations that are transparent, adaptable, and integration-ready.

Automate processes

Automate routine – improve quality. Automated processes make your lab not only faster but more reliable: repeatability, safety, and traceability increase – while manual effort decreases. From barcode tracking and RFID-based sample management to automated instrument control, we help you digitise daily workflows and boost sample throughput efficiently.
The result: more time for analysis, less time on administration.

From sample receipt to data output – fully automated. We develop modular software solutions to automate complete process chains – including barcode logic, RFID integration, instrument control, and feedback to central systems.
Our solutions are scalable, audit-ready, and interoperable with existing lab environments. We ensure robust communication (e.g. OPC, REST, SOAP) and reliable integration of both modern instruments and legacy systems.

Connectivity

Smart labs need smart connections. A digital laboratory only works if all systems communicate – instruments, sensors, and software alike. Proprietary interfaces and incompatible data formats often get in the way. We help you overcome these barriers through targeted interface development, integration of open standards such as OPC UA or LADS®, and solutions that fit seamlessly with your existing infrastructure.

From proprietary to interoperable – we make the connection. We design and implement communication interfaces for your laboratory instruments and software systems – including protocol adaptation, data mapping, and middleware solutions. We integrate standards such as OPC UA and LADS® precisely into your architecture, ensure semantic consistency, and enable end-to-end communication between instruments, middleware, and backend systems – even in complex multi-vendor environments.

From the device to the cloud

Data that works – not just data that’s measured. Whether from state-of-the-art instruments or older lab equipment, the key is that all data sources are connected and communicating seamlessly. We link your devices to existing systems such as PLS, LIMS, or cloud platforms, creating the foundation for efficient analysis, central monitoring, and smart lab control. The result: more value from your data – for higher quality, greater speed, and long-term future readiness.

Protocol-level integration – for every generation of instruments. We connect laboratory devices and sensors across hardware types and generations into your IT infrastructure – via serial protocols, proprietary APIs, or modern REST interfaces. Measurement, telemetry, and status data are automatically captured, contextualised, and delivered to target systems. Through edge computing, AI models, or cloud integration, we enable capabilities such as predictive maintenance and anomaly detection – performant, scalable, and secure.

Instrument control

Run analyses without being in the lab. Automated instrument control increases both efficiency and flexibility: individual analyses or full sequences can be started on schedule or remotely – for example, via your PLS or LIMS. Results such as identified substances or measurement data are returned automatically. The outcome: reduced manual intervention, less workload for staff, and valuable time gained in day-to-day lab operations.

Deep integration down to the device level. We develop interfaces for active remote control of your analytical instruments – including start/stop commands, parameter adjustments, and valve switching during ongoing analyses. Our solutions support automated operation via central systems and enable bidirectional communication with PLS, LIMS, or middleware. We account for complex sequence logic and device-specific requirements – robust, validation-ready, and control-secure.
