Solution for integrated laboratory/process information management

Thermo LabSystems, a Thermo Electron business and major player in laboratory informatics solutions and services, has produced a new brochure describing SM- IP21, a standard integration software for the interfacing of its Sample Manager enterprise LIMS (Laboratory Information Management) and Aspen Technology Inc's Infoplus.21. information management system. Respectively, these products are noted in laboratory and process information management. SM-IP21 is installed world- wide in plant and manufacturing sites (Plate 13).

The new brochure provides readers with a comprehensive overview of how SM-IP21 provides plant engineers with automated real- time access to off-line analytical testing performed in quality control laboratories. It outlines the latest enhancements to SM-IP21 in the areas of system configuration and transaction types that, Thermo claims, enable customers to better understand and optimise plant production.
