CHEMSPEED TECHNOLOGIES: PIONEER IN LABORATORY AUTOMATION AND DIGITALIZATION
In the dynamic world of Research & Development (R&D) and Quality Control (QC), efficiency and precision are critical. Chemspeed Technologies, based in Füllinsdorf, Switzerland, has established itself as a global leader in automating and digitalizing laboratory processes. For nearly 30 years, the company has been offering innovative solutions that support scientists across various industries.

COMPANY PROFILE
Chemspeed is a world-leading company in the field of laboratory automation and digitalization, headquartered in Füllinsdorf (Basel-Landschaft). Its core focus is the development, production, and sale of modular, scalable solutions tailored to the specific needs of R&D and quality control. The company serves customers in industries such as life sciences, materials science, and consumer goods with solutions that cover the entire laboratory workflow – from sample preparation and synthesis to formulation, application, and testing/characterization. Thanks to the integration of numerous "off-the-shelf" modules – including gravimetric dosing, mixing, stirring, heating, or cooling – existing workflows can be automated, precisely adapted, and made “future proof.” Chemspeed combines technological flexibility with deep process knowledge, offering customized system solutions from a single source.

TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONS: SMART AUTOAMTION FOR CONNECTED LABORATORIES
At the core of Chemspeed’s technological development is the fusion of physical automation with digital process logic. The goal is to manage laboratory processes efficiently, repeatably, and intelligently – with minimal manual effort. Precision robotics systems are used to automatically and gravimetrically dose, process, and handle liquids, solids, or formulations. These are complemented by a centralized software architecture that digitally links planning (enhanced by artificial intelligence), execution, and data analysis. Particularly innovative is Chemspeed’s ability to represent entire workflows – from the first experiment to data evaluation – in a fully integrated, modular, and scalable way. The result is a connected, adaptive laboratory system that not only saves research teams time and ensures quality but also opens up entirely new possibilities.

INDUSTRY APPLICATIONS
Chemspeed’s solutions are used across many industries where R&D needs to be automated and digitally supported:

- Pharmaceuticals: Faster development and reproducible testing through automated synthesis and process control.
- Specialty Chemicals: Efficient formulation and materials development via high-throughput workflows.
- Energy: Automated platforms for new materials in batteries, fuel cells, and photovoltaics.
- Cosmetics: Reproducible production and testing of new/improved care and active ingredient formulations.
- Food Industry: Development of flavors and functional ingredients with precise process control.
- Agrochemicals: Faster formulation and efficacy testing for sustainable crop protection, among others.

PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATIONS:
Chemspeed collaborates globally with numerous leading companies and research institutions. These partnerships play a key role in driving practical innovation and continuously advancing existing technologies. With its acquisition by Bruker Corporation in 2024, a new chapter begins: the combination of Chemspeed’s automation solutions with Bruker’s analytical expertise opens up new potential for integrated, data-driven R&D and quality control, accelerating the evolution of connected lab environments.

FUTURE OUTLOOK:
Chemspeed remains committed to empowering scientists with advanced automation and digitalization solutions, enabling new possibilities in research and development. With a strong focus on innovation, quality, and customer satisfaction, the company will continue to play a key role in transforming laboratory processes.

Our vision is to be the innovator of the scientist’s enabling path, from ideas to knowledge, solutions and value.

Our mission is to be the innovator of unique solutions, enabling new possibilities in research & development and increasing the scientist’s output.
