Summary

Significance of the Topic


Automated powder dosing plays a crucial role in modern analytical workflows by eliminating manual handling errors, increasing throughput, and ensuring reproducibility in sample preparation. Integrating precise dosing into automated platforms addresses bottlenecks in high-demand laboratories and supports data integrity.

Objectives and Overview


This document introduces the CHRONECT Quantos system, a fully automated powder dosing solution designed to complement sample preparation workflows in analytical laboratories. Developed collaboratively by Axel Semrau, METTLER-TOLEDO, Jüke Systemtechnik, and Trajan Scientific and Medical, the system aims to seamlessly integrate accurate dosing and weighing into existing robotic platforms.

Methodology and Instrumentation Used


The CHRONECT Quantos workflow employs a multi-dimensional robotic system (CHRONECT Bionic) for powder handling and precise weight determination via METTLER-TOLEDO Quantos technology. Key components include:
  • CHRONECT Bionic cooperative or industrial robot for vial handling
  • Quantos Powder Dosing System comprising the Quantos Dosing Module and precision balance
  • CHRONECT Robotic XYZ platform with a PAL Autosampler by CTC Analytics
  • CHRONOS software for system control and process integration

Main Results and Discussion


Implementation of the CHRONECT Quantos system demonstrated robust performance in automated powder dosing. The integration eliminated manual weighing steps, maintained high accuracy across dosing ranges, and expanded the automated working envelope. The dual robot configurations offered flexibility: a cooperative robot for direct user interaction and an industrial robot for high-throughput applications.

Benefits and Practical Applications


  • Enhanced workflow efficiency by automating time-consuming preparation steps
  • Reduced potential for human error in powder handling
  • Scalable integration with existing XYZ robotic systems
  • Investment protection through modular design and software compatibility

Future Trends and Potential Applications


The convergence of advanced robotics and analytical instrumentation foreshadows further developments in digital laboratory automation. Future trends include expanded material compatibility, real-time process monitoring, and AI-driven optimization of sample preparation protocols. The modular CHRONECT Quantos framework can adapt to emerging analytical challenges and throughput demands.

Conclusion


The CHRONECT Quantos system represents a significant advancement in laboratory automation, offering precise, reliable, and scalable powder dosing. Its integration into established robotic workflows enhances data quality and operational efficiency, positioning laboratories to meet growing analytical demands.
