About Laboratory Automation
Laboratory automation is a multi-disciplinary strategy to research, develop, optimize and capitalize on technologies in the laboratory that enable new and improved processes. Laboratory Automation (LA) is an automation system that is mainly used for the purpose of performing any kind of repetitive tasks in the laboratory. It replaces human operators with robotic devices when preparing and transporting samples. It consolidates the control of several different analysers to a smaller number of operators and thus reduces the costs for laboratory tests. The benefits of full laboratory automation include reducing human error in sample handling, improvements in overall process control, and faster turnaround times (TAT) from sampling to reporting test results. Most clinical laboratories will soon be deciding to implement Laboratory Automation (LA), or parts thereof, to reduce operating costs to meet declining reimbursements for medical services. With Laboratory Automation, laboratories can flexibly meet changing requirements, optimize operational efficiency, improve workflow functions, and improve productivity at a reasonable cost.
