The Fourth Industrial Revolution, also known as Industry 4.0, is transforming industries worldwide with the integration of digital technologies, data analytics, and automation. Laboratories, critical centres for research, quality control and compliance, are also part of this revolution. Let’s explore how Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) are playing a pivotal role in driving laboratories into the future of Industry 4.0.
The Evolution of Industry 4.0
Industry 4.0 represents a shift towards innovative, connected production and data-driven decision-making.
