Lab Automation refers to the use of technology and machinery to perform tasks and processes in a laboratory setting with minimal human intervention. This can include automating repetitive tasks such as sample preparation, data collection, and analysis, thereby increasing efficiency, reducing the likelihood of errors, and allowing for higher throughput of experiments. Lab automation can encompass a wide range of technologies, including robotic systems, liquid handling systems, and software tools that facilitate data management and integration. The primary aim of lab automation is to enhance productivity, improve consistency in results, and free up human resources so that they can focus on more complex tasks requiring critical thinking and decision-making.
Agilent Technologies and ABB are joining forces to reshape the future of laboratory automation in a significant collaboration that promises to streamline operations. This alliance aims to enhance lab efficiency…
