FlexySys

FlexySys (unified lab & plant automation software)

A modular software platform designed to automate, monitor, and document chemical processes from initial screening to full kilolab scale-up.

Seamless scale-up: Adapts dynamically from basic single reactor controls to complex, multi reactor plants requiring strict ATEX or cGMP compliance.
Flexible operation: Features intuitive drag-and-drop recipe building alongside live manual overrides for safe, remote process adjustments.
Instant reports: Automatically documents every reaction parameter, generating clean, audit-ready laboratory journals in Word and CSV.

Eliminate the burden of recurring licensing fees and restrictive software tiers. FlexySys is a one-time investment that adapts precisely to specific process workflows. Whether a project requires Design of Experiments (DoE) for early phase development, parallel process optimization in small volumes, or preparation for full kilolab scale-up, the customer secures a perpetual software license with no recurring operational costs. Built for formulation and development departments across the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, including CROs and CDMOs. FlexySys delivers high quality control, Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA), and a seamless process transition within a single, unified software solution.

In process engineering, automation software should never dictate hardware choices or limit scale-up potential. The FlexySys platform bridges the gap between lab-scale agility and plant-scale rigor, featuring an extensive library of over 700 basic operations to handle diverse chemical processes.

Third party integration: Existing laboratory equipment connects seamlessly without requiring a replacement of current infrastructure.
Modular & expandable: Operations can begin with the specific automation modules required today, allowing the software to expand as the workflow grows with additional reactors or reactor equipment.

Unified interface: Every connected peripheral device is managed from a single, intuitive interface, reducing training time once familiar and minimizing

Whether exploring a new synthesis step by step or executing a fully validated, multi day recipe, FlexySys adapts precisely to the chosen working style.

Drag-and-Drop Recipe Control with Integrated Logic Functions

Building complex synthesis protocols are designed effortlessly. Drag and drop phases allow researchers to build recipes and switch seamlessly between standard batch execution or continuous operations based on process requirements.

In practice: Manual data transfer and the associated risk of human error are eliminated. Recipes are built securely from a workstation, ensuring the logic is locked in before chemistry begins.

Manual Distillation Control with Boiling Point Detection and Optional Solvent Exchange

Chemical reactions do not always follow predefined paths, requiring step by step experimental interventions without a structured recipe. FlexySys allows operators to intervene or run entirely in manual mode without sacrificing data integrity. Every individual step, adjustment, and environmental condition is automatically documented and reported.

In practice: Laboratories gain the flexibility of manual execution alongside the rigorous data compliance of full automation. If an unscripted experiment yields an optimal result, an exact data blueprint is immediately available to replicate those precise process conditions.

Operators are guided effortlessly through the process, while continuous monitoring is maintained through real time graphical trend views. Crucially, FlexySys establishes physical distance between personnel and the chemical reaction. In a worst-case scenario, before the start of a runaway reaction, operators are not required to be physically present next to the equipment to try to get the control back of the reaction.

In practice: Continuous monitoring directly in front of the fume hood or reactor is no longer mandatory. Critical parameters can be adjusted and emergency shutdowns executed from a safe, remote distance, protecting both the batch and laboratory personnel.

FlexySys Process Safety: Complete Control of Limits and Settings

Laboratories and personnel remain protected at all times. FlexySys enables the definition of rigorous safety parameters directly at the recipe level, including emergency setpoints, upper temperature safety limits, pressure boundaries, and stirrer torque thresholds.

Dynamic charting & real time monitoring customizable axes, isolated data series, and precise zoom functions allow researchers to analyze exact reaction behaviors minute by minute.

In practice: Live chart annotations critical observations made during a run can be flagged directly in the chart and journal in real time. Whether noting a physical color change in the reaction mixture or recording the manual addition of a catalyst, these observations remain permanently linked to the exact chronological data point.

Automated Word & CSV generation upon completion of a run, the documentation risks associated with manual data handling are completely removed. FlexySys automatically generates a comprehensive laboratory journal in Microsoft Word format, seamlessly integrating recipe steps, chronological event logs, and process diagrams.

In practice: Handwritten transcription and manual logbooks become obsolete. Engineering and R&D teams save significant administrative hours, while structured datasets (.csv) are immediately available for direct export to Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELN) or LIMS databases to share further.
