The SiLA Conference at MipTec 2011 was attended by more than 100 participants. Numerous representatives from biopharma industry as well as device and software vendors and system integrators contributed with interesting presentations, which are all available in our download section under “Conference Material”.

Many discussions and meetings during interest- or workgroups as well as individual talks at the SiLA Conference and at the SiLA booth during MipTec confirm the proven successes of SiLA.

Demo Installation of an integrated system using the SiLA Device Control & Data Interface
Hamilton Starlet connected with two SiLA compliant readers (Perkin Elmer EnVision and Tecan Sunrise).

Visitors to the booth could select one of the readers by plugging in the associated wiring and the Hamilton Venus software was capable of discovering the reader. So a 96 well plate was moved to the discovered reader and a read process was started.
This discovery procedure shows the possibilities with SiLA, the replaceability and how it can be used for fall-back devices.
