LIMS & Lab Automation


Secure data for regulated laboratories In today’s regulated industries, precise measurement alone is no longer enough. Quality control results must not only be correct – they must also be compliant, traceable, and audit-ready. This is where AP Connect comes in. As a central data hub, it ensures data integrity and regulatory compliance while reducing manual workload in pharmaceutical and biotech laboratories.


AP Connect in focus: Compliance and efficiency combined Modern QC labs face increasing demands under FDA 21 CFR Part 11, EU Vol 4 Annex 11, and ALCOA++ guidelines. AP Connect directly addresses these challenges with the following features: • Central data repository: All measurement data, including audit trails, are stored securely in a customer-owned MS SQL database • Error-free data transfer: Results from Anton Paar instruments, as well as those from other vendors, are automatically captured, reviewed, and transferred to LIMS or ERP systems – eliminating manual transcription errors • Controlled review process: Configurable review and approval ensure that only validated data enter the next system • Audit readiness: Consolidated logs from instruments and AP Connect simplify inspections and reduce audit preparation time • Flexible integration: Seamless connectivity with existing IT infrastructure via file-based or REST API interfaces The impact is measurable. Automated data capture reduces input time by up to 80% and lowers error rates, while digital audit trails cut audit durations by up to 50%.


Documentation and validation support Introducing new software in a regulated environment can be challenging. Anton Paar simplifies this with comprehensive validation documentation (IQ|OQ|PQ, GxP qualification documentation) that reduces ‘go live’ time and minimise project risk. This gives laboratories confidence that AP Connect can be implemented quickly and in full compliance.


Global service structure Compliance and reliability require long-term support. With a worldwide service network, Anton Paar ensures fast support, qualification, and ongoing assistance – keeping laboratories secure, efficient, and audit-ready.


Beyond data management AP Connect is more than a data management tool – it transforms precise measurement results into legally certain, compliant, and audit-ready laboratory data. Combined with Anton Paar’s validation expertise and global service infrastructure, laboratories gain not only precise instruments but also the assurance that their data will stand up to any inspection.

The automation of lab workflows is key for future innovation and productivity gains. It boosts productivity by accelerating routine tasks, allowing scientists to focus on complex work. It ensures repeatability and consistency, with hands-free testing and rapid data analysis. And it addresses the shortage of skilled workers, while also enhancing safety by reducing exposure to hazardous substances.


Load. Set. Go. HTR 7000 performs fully automated traceable rheological measurements – from sample preparation to cleaning – eliminating up to 14 manual steps and freeing up entire shifts.


HTR 7000 can work with solid samples like polymer discs, paste-like samples like adhesives, or low-viscosity samples like shampoos, conditioners, and food and polymer solutions. The high-end MCR 702e rheometer measures samples with various plate-plate and cone- plate geometries. Depending on the sample, modules for sample conditioning, preparation, and cleaning can be added.


Reproducible data quality and full traceability Developed to meet the high-precision demands of the polymer industry, HTR 7000’s unique fully automated trimming tool is redefining sample preparation across multiple sectors – ranging from applications such as personal care and adhesives to paints and food. By eliminating manual variability, automated trimming delivers unmatched reproducibility – within absolute deviance of ±1.76% of G* and a standard deviation of only 1.12% for polyethylene samples – and ensures consistent sample quality with minimal exposure to atmosphere.


HTR 7000 ensures dependable, precise results through automated sample preparation and measurement. Integrated tools such as sample management, barcode reading, and LIMS connectivity guarantee SOP compliance and complete traceability, even supporting AI model training including image documentation.


Automated workflows for productivity Up to 60 samples and 14 workflow steps can be run without interruption or supervision. The 24/7 automation covers preparation, trimming, cleaning, and data transfer - freeing your team to focus on research while accelerating innovation and productivity. An optional dual rheometer setup enables parallel measurements, saving time and maximising throughput.


Safety built-in Automation minimises human contact with harmful samples, cleaning agents, or hot geometries. Safety doors, monitored ventilation, and explosion-safety options ensure reliable and confident operation for virtually any user.


Precision meets performance HTR 7000 comes with Anton Paar’s three-year warranty, comprehensive service package, and global support, guaranteeing uptime, punctual delivery, and knowledge transfer. With subsidiaries worldwide, expert training, maintenance, and individual service are always close at hand.

The reliable characterisation of excipients is critical for ensuring drug quality and regulatory compliance. In a recent study on zinc and calcium stearates, Anton Paar’s Nova series demonstrated exceptional reproducibility in BET surface area measurements, confirming its position as a trusted solution for the pharmaceutical industry.


Metallic stearates such as calcium and zinc stearate are widely used excipients in tablet production, serving as lubricants, stabilisers, and anti-caking agents. Their performance in formulations is strongly influenced by surface area, which impacts flow, compaction, and dissolution. The Anton Paar Nova series provides rapid, reproducible, and regulatorily aligned surface area analysis, enabling pharmaceutical manufacturers to confidently qualify excipients for Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) processes.


The Nova series combines vacuum volumetric gas adsorption with up to four analysis stations, allowing simultaneous measurements and efficient laboratory throughput. For pharmaceutical manufacturers, compliance is just as vital as accuracy. The Nova series is supported by the Kaomi operating software (fulfilling FDA’s 21 CFR Part 11 requirements), ensuring full electronic records, electronic signatures, and audit trails.


With global demand for metallic stearates projected to grow steadily in the future, the Nova series empowers pharma companies to maintain rigorous quality standards while accelerating their development timelines. By combining cutting-edge analytical performance with compliance-ready data handling, Anton Paar once again sets the benchmark for pharmaceutical material characterisation.
