Every day, you see it happen: disconnected devices that don’t communicate. Workflows that break down. Vendors pointing fingers at each other. And you? You're the one who has to fix it. At LAB Services, we understand that lab automation is about more than just technology. It’s a chain of trust. We are your technical partner and we build platforms that not only excel now, but continue to excel next month, next year, and in twenty years' time. This means not only convenience and efficiency for our customers, but also a sustainable and future-oriented partnership. 

All under one roof
That's why we bring everything together under one roof: hardware, software and service. No loose components you have to piece together yourself, but an integrated whole that works perfectly from the very first minute. Because when every element is designed to work together, something special is created: a system that does not limit you, but gives you the space to grow.

We build our hardware in-house. It is compact, flexible and smart – not because it has to be simple, but because it has to be precise. And if the right solution doesn’t exist yet? Then we’ll simply build it. Our tailor-made solutions ensure that we never shy away from any project. But more than that: for each and every project we work on, we pull out all the stops. Because standard rarely fits perfectly, and we are not satisfied until we reach perfection. 

For example, over the past year, we modified more than 100 non-automated SensoQuest thermal cyclers so they could be fully integrated into PlateButler platforms. 

Software that adapts to you
Our software is also anything but standard. With PlateButler, you get a platform that lives and grows with you. Our dynamic scheduling ensures that your system remains efficient, even if your processes change or expand. Your possibilities are not limited; we think about the future together – and together we make it happen. Plus, with PlateButler, you always get the highest throughput out of your process, regardless of the complexity or scale of your workflow. Every day, our team of developers works on new functionalities so that you can continue to get the most out of your automation, even in the long term. 

Service that works
Often underestimated, but all the more crucial. As a good platform only functions optimally if it is well maintained. We completely take care of this, including the service and maintenance of all third party products present. You have one point of contact, worldwide, always tailored to your maintenance contract. This means no nonsense, no delays and no worries. 

“They were ready before we even hit ‘send’.” It’s something we’ve actually heard from customers and we take that as a compliment. 

Why it works
Through our one-stop shop, in which our hardware, software and service are expertly aligned, we build systems that are not only robust and reliable, but also exceptionally flexible. It's a platform that lasts for years, without ever standing still. We believe in continuity, in further development, and in automation that works today and tomorrow. LAB Services does not offer a solution for now. We build the foundation for what your lab will become. 

Because if everything is right under one roof, you no longer have any reason to look outside.
