Automate laboratory equipment easily
The LabBox® is your entry into the digital laboratory. You can easily automate experiments and processes and gain time for more runs:
- Connect any sensors and devices
- Freely configure the user interface
- Define automated experiments
- Document or export experiment data
- Unbeatable price-performance




Laboratory processes on autopilot?
Wouldn't it be great to automate your laboratory processes? Watch the video to learn how to put your lab® on autopilot with the LabBox.
Applications
No experiment is too simple for automation
Whatever you have in mind, the LabBox® can measure and control all processes precisely.
- Observe measured value curves live over time
- Define PID controller and if-then relationships
- Monitor the test remotely (Microsoft Windows® 10 or Android®)
- All measured values can be transferred to other programs
Define batch processes graphically
For repetitive processes, you can easily define batch sequences in graphical mode*. Preconfigured routines can already be used for many functions, such as
- Temperature ramps
- Control dosing unit
- Regulate pH-value
- Distillate
* For more than 4 blocks at the same time you need the option HiBatch™
Operate laboratory devices via a central interface
The LabBox® makes it easy for you to connect and control everything via one interface:
- Switch valves
- Define target values
- Create control loops and cascades quickly and easily
- Seamlessly connect devices and controllers with each other
Integrate additional laboratory devices
Via the network interface of the LabBox® many other devices can be integrated. This allows you to visually monitor and evaluate processes, for example:
- Single images: "Take a picture every 2 minutes"
- Video: "Record for 30 minutes if temperature < 70° C" (observe precipitation)
- Progress report with time stamps
These interfaces make you flexible
Thanks to the many possible protocols and interfaces of different platforms, you can automate your laboratory processes exactly as required. This creates a powerful laboratory automation system from many individual elements.

The system grows with your requirements
From individual laboratory tests and prototypes to pilot systems and production lines, HITEC ZANG offers a wide range of automation solutions for your equipment. Thanks to the extensive LabManager®family, your automation solution can grow with you.
LabManager®
The LabManager®device family consists of modular, automated devices of various sizes. This means you get a device with standardized plugs and sockets that is perfectly tailored to your needs. Communication with the operating PC takes place via an Ethernet connection or an optional RS-232 interface. The robust metal housing of the LabManager® is suitable for freestanding installation, as well as installation in control cabinets or 19-inch racks.
SlimCage
The SlimCage™ automation devices are ideal for portable or fixed installation in fume hoods. Thanks to their compact vertical design and IP34 protection rating, they extend the LabManager device family. They retain all the advantages of the LabManager. The modular design enables customized integration, and the standardized plug-in connections allow for flexible modifications, even during operation.
DC-Manager™
The DC-Manager™ is primarily used in technical center and production systems. HiTec Zang also offers complete control cabinets, including safety technology, for these systems. The DC-Manager™ is used instead of the LabManager if the system is hardwired. Expansion options via standardized LabManager®plug-in technology can be implemented flexibly at any time.
HITEC ZANG
The internationally operating company has decisively shaped the development of laboratory automation in the chemical process engineering industry with its LabManager® research process control system. As a research and development (R&D)-oriented company, HITEC ZANG introduces new products every year. Our own interdisciplinary team of engineers and scientists carries out hardware and software development, as well as customer projects. This allows HITEC ZANG to respond quickly and flexibly to customer requests and market demands.
