ExEcutE simplE and complEx protocols

Create multiple custom interfaces. Run protocols

and receive real-time feedback on process variables

using an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI)

that graphically renders the instrument. The simple

instrument interface makes it straightforward

for non-specialist, ‘walk-up’ operators to execute

standard, predefined tasks incorporating laboratory

best practices. It is also easy to configure more

complex interfaces for use by specialists executing

more demanding workflows.

control usEr modEs

Configure the right access for the right user.

Design different user interfaces for engineers

who perform hardware setup and maintenance,

for designers who create and troubleshoot

experimental protocols and for operators who

handle the day-to-day running of experiments.

automation studio™

integrated multi-instrument automation and experiment control with real-time data collection

and data processing through a single application. Accelrys Automation Studio software

accelerates experimental workflows and improves R&D productivity by automating and controlling

multiple laboratory instruments. The system handles data collection/storage, real-time data

processing, data analysis, searching and reporting—all within a single, easy-to-use application.

Intuitive user interface for liquid handling

Process reactor user interface

Fixed bed reactor user interface

accElEratE ExpErimEnt ExEcution

Reduce the learning curve while speeding productivity.

Accelerate synthesis and screening by targeting the scientist’s

workflow. The software integrates powder dispensing, liquid

handling, heating, stirring, reactor control, chromatography,

spectroscopy and image analysis, eliminating the need to manage

and learn multiple software packages and minimizing training.

ExtEnd systEm capabilitiEs

Easily customize the system to meet enterprise requirements.

Integrate with custom instruments, construct new algorithms,

incorporate custom data analysis and create custom applications

using the Software Developer Kit.

collaboratE EffEctivEly

Share protocols and data across experiments and groups. Capture

experimental data in a single database, facilitating the retrieval

and sharing of experimental protocols and data by globally

distributed project teams. Powerful, out-of-the-box searching and

reporting capabilities, available during and after runtime, enable

researchers to search the database and create reports using

Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet software or Adobe® PDF file format.

intEgratE with ExpErimEnt dEsign

Design experiments with Accelrys software. Use Accelrys Library

Studio® software to specify libraries and experiments for a

variety of applications including solubility, forced degradation,

crystallization, pharmaceutical API salt selection, automated

chromatography, sample preparation, formulation, polymer

formulation, viscous sample formulation, coating preparation,

coating characterization, organic/inorganic synthesis and

homogeneous/heterogeneous catalyst screening.
