Automata’s fully-automated lab bench enables labs to achieve higher throughput and reliability, without compromising on valuable lab space
We do this without compromising on valuable lab space, meanwhile, the accompanying lab orchestration software enables true walkaway time.
Designed with humans in mind, the modular bench fits into the same footprint as your regular lab benches. Both the bench and software can be adapted for multiple workflows and are interoperable with multiple instruments, all while allowing for easy scalability within your existing environment.
Automata LINQ is a lab automation platform that enables Life Sciences labs to fully automate their workflows. We do this with our automated lab bench, which fits into the same footprint as a regular lab bench, and lab orchestration software, which enables true walkaway time.
The core benefits for your lab
Realise the potential of your lab space
With automation designed with your space and people in mind, you can make the most of your space. The Automata LINQ fits into the footprint of a regular lab bench while autonomously connecting multiple devices.
Lab automation that adapts with you
The modularity of the Automata LINQ allows for easy scalability and configurability to fit your available lab space. Can be adapted for multiple workflows and instruments.
Enable your lab to do more with less
With repetitive tasks eliminated, staff are empowered to focus on the work that really matters with truly hands-free automation, while the Automata LINQ delivers more and better quality data.
The platform components
An automated lab bench that fits into the same space as a regular lab bench, yet allows the full automation of workflows.
The robotic automation system enables the automated transfer of labware between benchtop instruments.
The Automata LINQ bench can integrate with a variety of instruments and the modular design allows it to be adapted for any workflow or any existing environment.
SPACE EFFICIENCY
Easily configured to your lab space through its lab bench size and footprint making it a 1-for-1 exchange with your existing lab benches
Adaptability and scalability
Quickly and easily expands to accommodate the growing needs of the lab through modular design
Reliability
Eliminates human errors and unplanned downtime with complete hands-off time for staff
The Automata LINQ lab automation software enables users to create automated workflows in the visual, low-code designer.
It also automatically calculates a schedule of actions for an automated workflow. With the software, lab teams can easily run their workflow seamlessly with other laboratory activities (e.g. transferring experiment data, recording audit-related information, logging process durations and times) through a single, unified lab orchestration dashboard.
An intuitive user experience
Any team member can design and run automated workflows, with minimal training and without prior coding experience
Optimises the workflow for efficiency and/or consistency
Ensure your scheduled workflow runs with the best sequence of actions, calculated automatically
Walkaway time
Lab techs are notified of important statuses and issues in the workflow automatically, without needing to tend to the machine all day
Automata’s service team is here to help make the journey to automation as straightforward and impactful as possible.
