Is Automation Right for My Laboratory Animal Research Facility?
You might be wondering if an automation solution is right for your facility. We’re seeing automation do some amazing things – including reducing the risk of injury, creating better lab safety, and building more efficient processes.
Although each laboratory animal facility has its own set of unique challenges; every facility has challenges. There is always the pressure to complete processes faster while improving safety and cleanliness standards. Additionally, the biomedical research community strives to improve work conditions for lab animal professionals and reduce exposure to harmful allergens. All while maintaining the highest integrity.
Leading automation providers can help to solve many of the challenges that lab animal research facilities face. The latest advances in automation technology have made routine processes far easier to control and accomplish.
The Benefits of Activ Automation
The first and foremost benefit of our Activ Automation solution is partnering with BetterBuilt, an Allentown Company. We customize solutions to fit your precise needs as they are, and help you adapt as they evolve. But there are some more benefits to Activ Automation. Let’s dive into a few!
1. Enhance Cage Wash Throughput Capabilities
Timely dumping, washing, and returning cages is essential for maintaining the integrity of ongoing research. Consistency in throughput is paramount to meet the stringent needs of research facilities. Recognizing these challenges, BetterBuilt introduces our automation system, Activ. Our innovative automation technology streamlines the entire cage processing workflow.
2. Activ Automation Improves Employee Safety
Our automation technology significantly improves employee safety by offering protection from hazardous allergens in dirty side cage wash. The fully enclosed automated dumping system ensures that operators can carry out their tasks with minimal direct exposure to potentially harmful allergens.
Also, BetterBuilt’s Activ automation system is significantly different from a traditional robotics automation system, we eliminate the need for safety barriers or enclosures that are typically required to shield individuals from potentially dangerous robotic operations.
3. Advances Modular Design
Our tailored approach involves working closely with our clients to customize solutions that exceed requirements. We collaborate with you to understand the intricacies of your facility, allowing us to design and implement solutions that maximize floor space efficiently and provide the throughput capacity you require. Our load and unload queue stations soiled and clean diverters, and various cart offerings provide this flexibility.
Our Activ automation system is modular in design and inherently requires 30-40% less space when compared to traditional robotic automation systems. This significant reduction in footprint is a game-changer for facilities, allowing you to allocate your valuable floor space more efficiently.
4. More Operational Consistency
With BetterBuilt’s suite of automation products, we provide complete integration of all equipment, through ethernet connectivity. Ensuring that your cage wash area is operating smoothly and consistently. With our automated systems, research facilities can rely on consistent throughput.
5. Increases Economical Savings
BetterBuilt automation offers significant cost savings through reduced energy consumption and improved productivity. It consumes approximately 70% less electricity than traditonal robotic automation systems, and its seamless integration with BetterBuilt Tunnel Washers results in 30% less steam and no cold-water usage during operation, making it an economical choice. Additionally, its consistent operation ensures maximum uptime, saving on labor costs.
