Laboratory Software Development

Control and automation software for individual test benches or entire test rooms, up to fully integrated systems for laboratory supervision and complete management. The very first “client”? Advantech TIME’s own laboratory!

Advantech TIME is not just a software house – it is also a laboratory that actively uses the software it develops. In other words: we design, test solutions, and implement them with the unique advantage of knowing exactly what a user needs!

Revamping, Upgrade
and System Integration

Revamping activities for automation of existing systems, upgrades, improvements, and system integration to enable data communication between different platforms. Development of brand-new software for the control and automation of single benches, whether manufactured by Advantech TIME or third parties. Naturally, before developing test and laboratory software, Advantech TIME also designs and builds the physical structures of the test benches.

Software for Laboratory
Management

Development of software for managing entire laboratories, with multi-user architecture, integrable with company databases (CRM, ERP, SCM) and third-party services (e.g., SAP systems). In practice, it is a LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System), but designed and developed specifically for the HVAC world by real users — the Advantech TIME testing laboratory team itself.

Main Features
  1. A collaborative system that lets multiple users work from different stations, with all data safely stored in one place – either locally or in the cloud.
  2. Instrumentation and data acquisition platforms management: component registry, calibration data, integration with automatic system calibration procedures.
  3. Data organization based on project/order code, product/prototype SN, components part number, etc.
  4. Centralized monitoring and control of all laboratory test stations (climatic chambers, test rooms, end-of-line benches, etc.).
  5. Centralized acquisition of test data.
  6. Post-processing and reporting tools.
Thanks to its in-house laboratory, Advantech TIME leverages expertise gained from direct experience in using the tools. This allows special attention to aspects and potential issues that remain unseen to those who develop software without ever having worked in a laboratory.
