Compare test series, steer development with confidence
In plastics processing, new compounds are continuously generated. Formulations are adjusted, process parameters modified, and experimental data from laboratory extruders and test rigs evaluated. LabV consolidates all these formulation, process and test data in a central data platform. All of it stays traceable across equipment and projects.
Fragmented data, no clear picture
Which formulation ran consistently on the laboratory extruder? Which parameters led to better mechanical properties? Which variant is the right starting point for the next development stage? These questions come up in every test series.
The relevant information is scattered: formulations in Excel files, mixing protocols in separate systems and measurement data from test rigs and equipment. Without a common structure, comparability is lost and variants are re-tested rather than built upon.
Data connectivity for development and production processes
LabV brings formulations, mixing protocols, process parameters and test results into a single structured environment. Experimental data from laboratory trials and equipment is centrally documented and stays traceable across projects.
The result: test series can be compared, development steps evaluated with confidence, and decisions made on the basis of complete datasets, not single results.
The right data structure from day one
Every change to a formulation or process generates new data. Comparing results across projects only works if data is captured in a connected structure from the outset, not consolidated retrospectively.
LabV establishes that structure from the first experiment. This keeps the link between material decisions and experimental results clear across iterations, equipment and projects.
Identify patterns, sharpen development decisions
The AI assistant draws on the platform's structured data to identify patterns across test series and make relationships between material composition, process parameters and results visible. Promising variants can be identified more quickly and development directions prioritised with greater confidence.
The AI finds the patterns. The team draws the conclusions.
PVC profile manufacturer
A manufacturer of PVC profiles developed several hundred new formulations every year, each of which had to be tested and evaluated on different extruders. Formulation, process and test data were scattered across Excel files, ERP systems and processing equipment with no shared structure or consistent basis for comparison. After centralising data in LabV, test series could be evaluated consistently for the first time.
The result: faster iterations from laboratory trial to production testing, fewer transcription errors and a reliable data foundation for ongoing compound development.
