"In a small company, such as IntegraGen, we try as often as possible to automate long and repetitive processes. However, the automation of our processes is considered only under the following conditions: - It must not increase the technicians’ workload nor oblige them to stay by the system during the automated process only to reload consumables or tips. - Expertise in robotics programming must not be required. - The investment must not be too expensive and have reasonable rates for maintenance and consumables in order to control and maintain our production costs. PrimaDiag’s ACSIA robotic platform complies with all of the above requirements. The programming of ACSIA platform is so user-friendly that even those who are not accustomed to programming can easily do it. The software’s interface is extremely simple and has been designed to follow the different stages of the whole process. It is thus very easy to create one’s own protocols step by step. "
