At HWS, we understand that modern laboratory and pilot plant reactors must combine precision, safety, and flexibility to meet today’s research and production demands. That’s why we focus on delivering fully automated reactor systems that ensure reliable data, consistent process control, and efficient operation.
A key part of our approach is collaborating with leading partners that specialize in advanced automation technologies. By integrating their expertise with our reactor systems, we deliver turnkey solutions that push the boundaries of what’s possible in laboratory and pilot plant environments.
For example, when it comes to automation of mixing and stirring processes, HWS relies on IKA’s proven technology. IKA’s mixing and stirring equipment is a cornerstone of laboratory work and, when automated, ensures enhanced process control, reproducibility, and ease of operation in HWS reactors.
For fully automated central control and streamlined data integration across your entire laboratory setup, HWS offers the LabBox® system by Hitec Zang. The LabBox® is a compact yet powerful automation platform that centralizes control of your laboratory devices and seamlessly connects them to your reactor systems. It enables real-time data acquisition, precise process control, and advanced monitoring for more robust, reproducible outcomes.
This two-pronged approach—partnering with IKA for precision stirring automation and integrating LabBox® for comprehensive process control—reflects our commitment to delivering the best possible solutions for your laboratory and pilot plant needs. Whether you’re working in chemical process development, biotechnology, environmental technology, or any other field, our automated reactors provide the perfect foundation for reliable, future-ready research and production.
Automatisation des processus en continu
Les réacteurs automatisés HWS sont conçus pour une automatisation complète du processus, permettant de contrôler la température, la pression, la vitesse d'agitation et d'autres paramètres critiques. Cette approche automatisée minimise les interventions manuelles, garantissant un fonctionnement précis et cohérent.
Enregistrement et suivi des données en temps réel
At HWS, we know that real-time data recording and monitoring are essential for safe, efficient, and repeatable laboratory and pilot plant operations. That’s why we integrate advanced automation technologies like the LabBox® system by Hitec Zang to support seamless, precise data management.
LabBox® provides a centralized, compact automation solution that not only controls your reactor systems but also connects all key laboratory devices—including stirrers, thermostats, pH sensors, scales, and more. This ensures that every parameter can be continuously recorded and visualized in real time. With integrated mathematical functions and PID control, LabBox® automatically adjusts process conditions based on real-time measurements, ensuring consistent results and faster development cycles.
Using the LabVision® software, you can configure data export options (e.g., to Excel or MATLAB) and set up custom visualizations to monitor the most critical process parameters live—enabling you to make informed decisions and document your experiments with full confidence.
LabBox® turns your laboratory or pilot plant reactor system into a fully connected, data-driven environment that meets the demands of modern process engineering and innovation.
Compatibilité avec les systèmes de contrôle existants
Grâce à des interfaces spécialisées, les réacteurs automatisés HWS peuvent facilement s'intégrer aux systèmes de contrôle des processus existants, ce qui permet une surveillance et un contrôle centralisés. Cette compatibilité facilite la gestion des processus dans les installations autonomes et interconnectées.
Reproductibilité accrue pour la R&D
En assurant la collecte de données cohérentes et le contrôle de chaque variable du processus, les réacteurs automatisés HWS offrent la fiabilité et la répétabilité essentielles aux applications de R&D. Ces systèmes sont inestimables pour optimiser les processus, valider les résultats et passer du laboratoire à la production industrielle.
