First Systems Released with Analytical Intelligence Functions

Shimadzu applies a new qualitative approach to its hardware and software solutions, benefitting the users with a surplus of lab productivity and profitability. Under the umbrella of Analytical Intelligence, more and more analytical systems will be equipped with automated functions relieving users from organisational, input and processing works. As a first step, Analytical Intelligence functions are incorporated in selected system solutions such as the new Nexera series of (U)HPLC systems as well as the UV-i Selection spectrophotometers and the Nexis SCD-2030 sulphur chemiluminescence detection system.

Analytical Intelligence allows systems to detect and resolve issues automatically, enabling users to easily review instrument status, optimise resource allocation and achieve higher throughput.

Analytical Intelligence goes hand in hand with Shimadzu’s ‘Excellence in Science’ brand value proposition, representing the company’s scientific and technological approach to always providing business and research solutions with the most modern analytical systems.

The Nexera series of (U)HPLC systems maximises reliability and uptime with fully unattended workflows that span from startup to shut-down, such as completion of auto-purge, equilibration, baseline checks and system suitability in advance as well as auto-diagnostics and auto-recovery capabilities. With remote mobile phase monitoring and integrated consumables management, the system maximises uptime and reliability.

The new UV-1900i UV-Vis spectrophotometer can analyse more samples daily than ever before. The UV-1900i’s connectivity allows for direct printing (via PictBridge) without a PC. Several systems can share one printer. Data can be transferred to a PC via a router-based laboratory network.

The standard UV-3600i Plus UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer is designed primarily for the measurement of liquid samples, but the wide range of accessories also enables measurement of solid samples.

With the Nexis SCD-2030 sulphur chemiluminescence detection system, Shimadzu meets a growing demand for easy operation and maintenance as well as high stability even during long term operation for highly selective and sensitive sulphur detection systems. The Nexis GC-2030, a next generation gas chromatograph, offers world-highest level of performance. It is based on the concept of superior usability and expandability for a wide variety of analytical applications.
