Sensor solutions for laboratory automation
Pana‍sonic In‍dustry offers, in addition to state-of-the-art sensors, a wide range of automation components such as safety light curtains, controllers, motors, and HMIs (human-machine interfaces) that reliably contribute to the automation of laboratories.
In this industry, the phrase "Big Data" is more than just a buzzword.
In the future, we will have to deal with new synonyms such as AI (Artificial Intelligence) and IoT (Internet of Things). In the hypothesis-driven lab with the strong driver of sustainability combined with the growth of ever higher quality artificial intelligence and algorithms, there will be more virtual "DMTA" (Design-Make-Test-Analyze) and less tangible ‘make’ and ‘test’.
So what new developments in data management will occur in the hypothesis-driven and protocol-driven labs of 2030?
  • The ubiquity of IoT and 5G communication capabilities will lead to growth within the lab
  • Widespread adoption and acceptance of accessible, interoperable, and reusable data
  • Standards for presentation and system automation
  • Data security and data protection
  • The ubiquity of the “cloud”
  • Digital twin approaches improve the representation of processes from a distance
  • Quantum computers evaluate the flood of data and provide new information
IIoT and Edge

Conclusion

A bundled solution requires thinking along from the start. And this is exactly what Panasonic Industry does to enable more efficiency in your laboratory. Further information on the product portfolio for laboratory automation can be found by clicking the following info button.

The GM1 – a compact solution
for complex motion control applications

The GM1 combines features of motion functions with the functionality of a PLC, such as positioning, network modules, I/O modules, and high-frequency counters, among others, in a compact controller. As these modules are integrated into the GM1 motion controller, the compact "all-in-one" solution reduces the space required in the control cabinet and enables response times of only 0.5 ms. The motion controller has two independent Ethernet ports, Ethernet/IP and Modbus-TCP, an SD memory slot for 32 GB cards, a two-channel high-speed counter (4 MHz / 8 MHz), and a four-channel PWM output (100 kHz).
All important things inside – motion control, network communication, I/O
