Industrial & Chemical Labs
To increase the effectiveness of the research and development function and to ensure product quality, companies in the chemical and industrial industries must implement systems that automate their laboratory facilities.
Such systems not only facilitate the creation and cataloging of new compounds and other forms of intellectual property, but they also help manage the finished product supply chain through rigorous product testing and real-time process monitoring. A key component in this effort is the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS).
LabWare LIMS enables customers to define testing and inspection models that correspond with their manufacturing process. Our built-in instrument integration capability provides the means to automate data collection both within the lab and remote locations performing in-line analysis. LabWare LIMS delivers the flexibility to monitor conformance to multiple product grades and product specifications, allowing you to manage continuous processes and batch release better.
Instrument integration facilitates extensive integration with process control systems, and it enables the establishment of a nearly paperless process. All lot management constructs are addressed through LabWare LIMS, including grading and dispositioning, parent/child relationships, sub-lots and mega-lots, genealogy and traceability, and where-used analysis. Stage-based sampling and testing protocols, whether automated through a predefined schedule or created on an ad-hoc basis, are all supported within the system.
LabWare LIMS offers the flexibility of a system designed around configurable templates. Configurable templates enable the system to reflect the business rules of your laboratory and production processes. Templates automate the creation of sample records, the assignment of testing and the collection of results. Since they are table-driven and may be configured very rapidly without coding, they are equally effective in routine as well as dynamic situations.
To promote user acceptance throughout your business from the shop floor to the analytical benchtop, the application operates in an easy-to-use graphical manner, and menus may be tailored to reflect the specific roles of individual users.
