<strong>automation</strong> studio<br />

integrated multi-instrument <strong>automation</strong> and experiment control with real-time data collection<br />

and data processing through a single application. <strong>Accelrys</strong> Automation Studio software<br />

accelerates experimental workflows and improves R&D productivity by automating and controlling<br />

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

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

ExEcutE simplE and<br />

complEx protocols<br />

Create multiple custom interfaces. Run protocols<br />

and receive real-time feedback on process variables<br />

using an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI)<br />

that graphically renders the instrument. The simple<br />

instrument interface makes it straightforward<br />

for non-specialist, ‘walk-up’ operators to execute<br />

standard, predefined tasks incorporating laboratory<br />

best practices. It is also easy to configure more<br />

complex interfaces for use by specialists executing<br />

more demanding workflows.<br />

Configure the right access for the right user.<br />

Design different user interfaces for engineers<br />

who perform hardware setup and maintenance,<br />

for designers who create and troubleshoot<br />

experimental protocols and for operators who<br />

handle the day-to-day running of experiments.<br />

accElEratE ExpErimEnt ExEcution<br />

Reduce the learning curve while speeding productivity.<br />

Accelerate synthesis and screening by targeting the scientist’s<br />

workflow. The software integrates powder dispensing, liquid<br />

handling, heating, stirring, reactor control, chromatography,<br />

spectroscopy and image analysis, eliminating the need to manage<br />

and learn multiple software packages and minimizing training.<br />

ExtEnd systEm capabilitiEs<br />

Easily customize the system to meet enterprise requirements.<br />

Integrate with custom instruments, construct new algorithms,<br />

incorporate custom data analysis and create custom applications<br />

using the Software Developer Kit.<br />

collaboratE EffEctivEly<br />

Share protocols and data across experiments and groups. Capture<br />

experimental data in a single database, facilitating the retrieval<br />

and sharing of experimental protocols and data by globally<br />

distributed project teams. Powerful, out-of-the-box searching and<br />

reporting capabilities, available during and after runtime, enable<br />

researchers to search the database and create reports using<br />

Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet software or Adobe® PDF file format.<br />

intEgratE with ExpErimEnt dEsign<br />

Design experiments with <strong>Accelrys</strong> software. Use <strong>Accelrys</strong> Library<br />

Studio® software to specify libraries and experiments for a<br />

variety of applications including solubility, forced degradation,<br />

crystallization, pharmaceutical API salt selection, automated<br />

chromatography, sample preparation, formulation, polymer<br />

formulation, viscous sample formulation, coating preparation,<br />

coating characterization, organic/inorganic synthesis and<br />

homogeneous/heterogeneous catalyst screening.<br />

Deck component manager Control experiments closely (e.g., add source liquids/library<br />

plates at runtime, receive alert if source liquids depleted, etc.)<br />

Alarm wizard based on predetermined variables (e.g.,<br />

temperature, pressure, etc.)<br />

Monitor experiments closely (e.g., pause/abort experiment<br />

or execute independent protocol depending on preset<br />

requirements )<br />
