Abstract

E' descritto un procedimento per l'automazione integrale di un laboratorio di analisi realizzato stabilendo un gruppo di operazioni elementari, ciascuna eseguita da un dispositivo in genere noto, e selezionando delle opportune sequenze di tali operazioni elementari in modo da effettuare i voluti cicli di preparazione e di analisi dei campioni in esame, utilizzando un'apparecchiatura formata dall'assemblaggio, secondo particolari criteri, di un'opportuna selezione di tali dispositivi e di apparecchiature ausiliarie ad essi complementari, interagenti nel loro complesso con almeno un robot, sotto il controllo di un elaboratore, dotato di un opportuno programma, a cui tali dispositivi e apparecchiature ausiliarie sono collegati tramite opportuna interfacce.A process is described for the integral automation of an analysis laboratory carried out by establishing a group of elementary operations, each performed by a generally known device, and selecting appropriate sequences of these elementary operations in order to carry out the desired preparation cycles and analysis of the samples in question, using equipment formed by assembling, according to particular criteria, an appropriate selection of such devices and auxiliary equipment complementary to them, interacting as a whole with at least one robot, under the control of a computer, equipped with a suitable program, to which these auxiliary devices and equipment are connected through suitable interfaces.
