System-Based
Automation
Often the best way to achieve increased productivity and reduced
costs is to standardize and consolidate workstations and processes
with system-based automation (automated instrument
systems). We consider this the first level of
automation, because this important step can actually generate the
greatest efficiency gains by eliminating many labor-intensive and
error-prone manual steps in the analytical process.
- Improve turnaround times
- Minimize operator intervention
Integrated Automation
The next level of automation streamlines the most
labor-intensive part of the testing process-sample handling-to
further improve efficiency, operator safety and utilization of
resources. Not only is integrated automation an ideal way for
laboratories to gain a cost-effective entry point into automation,
it also offers the ability to add specific modules as a lab's
automation needs grow.
- Automate sample sorting and processing
- Interface easily with your existing LIS
Comprehensive Automation
For laboratories that process very high volumes, Comprehensive Automation solutions link all workstation components
together for the greatest speed and efficiency improvements.
Comprehensive solutions, which can be customized to fit any laboratory design, are "open systems," and can connect 30 different models of instrumentation from a variety of manufacturers.
- Choose from a variety of automated modules
- Leverage existing instrumentation through open-system design
