Abstract
Automated laboratory devices and systems are indispensable tools for innovative life science processes. Users, however, face major challenges, such as increasing process complexity, regulatory requirements and individualized production or mass customization. In line, the complexity of process transfers of the manual protocol is constantly increasing. Thus, special effort is required to implement smart automation strategies by concomitant hardware development and process transfer strategies.
