Maintain Quality While Improving Productivity

Efficient Workflows in the Chemical Industry addresses how the adoption of lean processes combined with smart automation can accelerate many common laboratory procedures.

The guide explores six common lab workflows in the chemical-industry where weighing plays an integral role:

• Formulation 
• Moisture Content, Loss on Drying (LoD), Loss on Ignition (LoI)
• Particle Size analysis and distribution
• Density determination of solids and porous or viscous materials
• Sample preparation for titration
• Preparation of reference substances for HPLC or GC analysis

Optimum productivity can be achieved by carefully analyzing these procedures to identify and eliminate inefficiencies as much as possible. 

The hints and tips for faster, more accurate handling included in the guide are often complemented by automation. One example is smart laboratory software that incorporates step-by-step guidance for users to eliminate manual errors. Results are then saved automatically to further streamline the weighing process. This saves time and resources while maintaining the highest possible quality in the end product.
