Mobile app simplifies lab temperature control

Remote temperature control made easier

Lauda Dr R. Wobser GmbH & Co KG, a global leader in precise temperature control, has unveiled an enhanced version of its Command Professional app - offering powerful new capabilities for managing lab and process thermostats via mobile devices. With expanded features and regular updates delivered through leading app stores, the Command Professional app marks a major step in the digital transformation of temperature control technology.

Remote control goes pro

Originally launched as a basic tool for adjusting temperature equipment remotely, the Command app has already earned its place in research and industry labs worldwide. It allows users to monitor readings, tweak settings, and receive alerts - all from their smartphones or tablets within the company’s secure network.

Now, the Command Professional version builds on that foundation with greater control and more advanced functions. “This app reflects our commitment to advancing digital temperature control,” said Dr Gunther Wobser, President & CEO. “It offers unmatched flexibility, a modern interface, and significant functionality upgrades for professional use.”

Smarter features, smoother workflows

The new app includes everything found in the free version, with major enhancements designed for demanding environments. Users can create, save, and run temperature-time programs, with the ability to store up to five profiles. Temperature data is displayed as a graph and can be exported as image files. Set points and measured values can also be recorded and exported for detailed reporting or analysis.

Security built in

The app operates only within protected internal networks and all data transfers are encrypted. With two-factor authentication and digital certificates (PKI), it offers robust protection and complies with the latest Machinery Directive for lab equipment. Seamless integration with existing lab systems ensures reliable performance.

Flexible subscription model

For the first time in its history, Lauda is offering a software tool via subscription. The Command Professional app is available with an annual cancellation option, enabling lower up-front costs and greater flexibility - ideal for both long-term operations and short-term projects.

Always evolving

Lauda’s mobile app suite is continually updated to meet user demands. New features and expanded compatibility are added regularly, with support currently available for Lauda Integral and Variocool process thermostats. Compatibility with the Universa line is coming soon.

“This app is more than a control panel - it’s part of a connected, forward-looking lab environment,” said Enrico Bossart, Head of Product Management. “With Command Professional, we’re helping customers digitalise workflows without compromising the Lauda precision they rely on.”

The Lauda Command Professional app is now available for major mobile platforms.
