Latest Patents
Florian Wenzler holds a patent for a "Method of operating a laboratory sample distribution system, laboratory sample distribution system and laboratory automation system." This patent presents a method for operating a laboratory sample distribution system that includes container carriers, a transport plane, and drive elements. The system is designed to carry sample containers efficiently. The method involves planning a movement path for a container carrier from a start to a goal on a transport plane modeled by nodes. The nodes can be free for a time-window or reserved for a time-window. The planning process analyzes the reachability from a free time-window of one node to the free time-windows of the next nodes, ensuring that the planned movement of the container carrier is nonstop. The method also includes reserving the planned movement path, which consists of a sequence of time-windows of nodes, and moving the container carrier along this reserved path using a drive element.
