Abstract
This paper will trace the evolution of laboratory robotic automation systems from simple modules to today's highly intelligent modules and the changing role of the robotic arm to improve throughput and capacity. New advances to enhance workspace will be discussed including tracks, stacks and turntables, and when and how each can be used to increase sample capacity. The evolution of the robot—instrument interface will be presented including the many options available to today's automation specialist. Finally, a summary of economic factors useful in evaluating automation projects will be discussed.
