SiLA’s scope and actual work-in-progress status were presented and discussed April 27 on the 15th annual SBS conference in Lille during a session organized by the Special Interest Group Automation Quality Control. The presentation was held by Dr. Carsten Etzold, Director Marketing and Customized Solutions at Hamilton Bonaduz and Board Member / Chair Supplier Committee of SiLA.
More than 60 attendees were informed about SiLA’s mission, scope, roadmap and current work-in-progress status.
Participants confirmed the need for standardisation in lab automation and appreciated the fact that competitors like e.g. Tecan and Hamilton can cooperate in SiLA supporting a future common standard without losing their unique product features.
Representatives of applier (pharma) companies requested SiLA shall foster the interface standardisation specifically for devices providing new technologies.
All comments and suggestions collected through this meeting were reported and discussed on SiLA’s recent core team meeting May 09. We like to thank the SBS organisators for having provided us with this forum.
