Streamlining Catalysis Screenings on a Budget

Striving for efficiency within chemical development, lab automation is unequivocally on the run. With a plethora of technology available off the shelves, holistic platforms that automate full workstreams have been a target of the industry. However, their implementation is conducted hesitatively, as large capital expenditures and customizing/training efforts are frequently required. The present work addresses this issue by introducing a simple software solution to facilitate catalysis screenings and ease the bottleneck of solid dispensing. Working with a fully integrated benchtop dispensing robot, the platform becomes inexpensive and easy to handle. All resources to rebuild the platform are provided along with the Supporting Information, enabling the readership to implement the approach in their facilities.
