Amid the wave of digital transformation, testing laboratories in new materials companies are undergoing a profound shift from paper records to smart management. Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) integrated with testing instruments have become key infrastructure for companies to pass audits and boost R&D efficiency.

1. Why do you need LIMS + instrument networking?  

New materials companies generate large volumes of high-precision, traceable test data. Under traditional Excel management, data is scattered and cannot be audited or traced. A LIMS system can automatically collect data, provide electronic signature audit trails, generate reports with one click, and seamlessly integrate with ERP and MES systems.

2. Core implementation steps  

Step 1: Instrument inventory and interface assessment — review existing equipment and evaluate each instrument's data collection capabilities.  

Step 2: LIMS selection — startups can go for SaaS cloud LIMS, while medium to large companies can deploy local systems like LabWare or STARLIMS.  

Step 3: Instrument networking — connect core devices like rheometers, DSCs, and tensile testers to the network via serial servers or dedicated software.  

Step 4: Digitize testing workflows — from sample receipt to report issuance, implement full electronic signatures and audit tracking.

3. Dehui’s implementation plan  

Suzhou Dehui Scientific Instruments Co., Ltd., leveraging 13 years of experience in new materials labs, offers a one-stop service combining equipment + networking + LIMS. For new materials companies planning to go public, we help build a digital testing system that meets audit requirements.

4. Return on investment  

A complete solution costs about 150,000–500,000 RMB, can improve testing efficiency by over 60%, and reduce manual entry errors by 95%.
