What is laboratory automation?

Laboratory automation, also known as lab automation, is a subfield of automation technology. It primarily involves simplifying and automating recurring processes and basic operations in the laboratory by using specially developed systems and technologies to perform these tasks.

Automation gives laboratory staff more time for essential tasks.

Laboratories can increase reproducibility while reducing costs. Laboratory automation systems are mainly used in the fields of chemistry, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, food technology, and medical technology.

Small-batch production

In the field of laboratory automation, we manufacture a wide range of individual components or stand-alone systems in small batches. For example: positioning units, temperature control units, gripping systems, and washing heads. We also integrate customer-specific systems.

Special machine construction

As part of our special machine construction services, we manufacture customized production machines for laboratory and medical technology as well as other industries. For example, we develop and manufacture filling machines, rack systems, and storage solutions that make your everyday laboratory work easier.

Liquid Handling

Our liquid handling systems make it easy to automate repetitive processes. Efficient pipetting machines take care of transporting, filling, dispensing, and mixing, while employees have more time for essential tasks.

Electronics development

We develop tailor-made motor and device controls as well as other electronic components. Analog and digital interfaces, special circuit board layouts, and electronics tailored to complex device peripherals enable convenient control.

Medical technology: Automated laboratory solutions are used in medical technology for the diagnosis and analysis of patient samples, e.g., in blood tests, imaging procedures, or molecular biology tests. This enables more accurate diagnoses, faster results, and improved patient care through automated analyzers in hospitals and clinical laboratories.
Pharmaceutical research and development: Laboratory automation supports researchers in developing new drugs, testing active ingredients, and performing high-throughput screening. It accelerates research in drug development and reduces human error.
Biotechnology: Automated processes in biotechnology support the manufacture of biological products, genome and protein analysis, and cell culture technology, which drives production and research in areas such as vaccines and biopharmaceuticals.

Forensic analysis: In forensic science, laboratory automation is used to efficiently process and evaluate samples such as DNA, drug residues, or toxicological materials, which speeds up evidence collection and analysis in criminal investigations.
Food and beverage safety: Automated laboratory systems help monitor food quality by testing for contaminants, pesticide or heavy metal residues, and conducting microbiological tests for food safety.
Environmental analysis: In environmental research and monitoring, automated laboratory solutions are used to analyze water, soil, and air samples in order to quickly and accurately identify pollutants and environmental changes.

Sample preparation: Collection, processing, and preparation of samples for diagnostic testing, including sample preparation of blood, urine, or tissue samples.
Liquid handling: Precise and automated pipetting of reagents, samples, and liquids for analytical and diagnostic assays.
Microbiological testing: Automated cultivation, detection, and identification of microorganisms to increase the throughput and accuracy of microbiological tests.
PCR and molecular diagnostics: Automated sample preparation, DNA/RNA extraction, amplification, and analysis of PCR-based diagnostic tests.
Clinical chemistry: Automated support for performing clinical chemistry analyses, such as electrolyte analysis, enzyme tests, and metabolite measurements.
Blood banks and blood typing: Blood typing, serological compatibility testing, and blood inventory management.

Immunoassays: Automation of ELISA, ECLIA, and other immunological testing methods for the quantification of antibodies, proteins, or other biomarkers.
Laboratory information management: Automated data collection, analysis, and documentation in laboratory information systems (LIMS) to optimize laboratory workflow and data security.
Biobanking and sample storage: Automated sample storage and management, including barcode scanning and robotic sample retrieval from biobanks.
Cell culture and cell-based assays: Automated handling and analysis of cell cultures for cell growth, differentiation, and cell viability assays in diagnostics and research.
High-throughput screening: Automation for parallel testing of thousands of samples in large-scale in vitro diagnostic screenings.
Toxicology and pharmacogenetics: Toxicology and pharmacogenetics testing to investigate the effect of substances and genetic variations on disease risk and drug efficacy.
