The LIMS for Materials Testing
SAMPLES ensures maximum efficiency in materials testing because it is probably the first LIMS that really knows its way around materials. From atomic force microscopy to tensile testing – SAMPLES helps you to keep an eye on your equipment, methods and samples at all times.
- Mechanical testing
- Powder analysis
- Microstructure and structural analysis
- Material-specific preparation
- Standard-compliant testing
Avoid media discontinuities and insular knowledge
The world of materials is highly complex. Depending on its composition, production and pre-treatment, each material has individual requirements for preparation and analysis.
Efficient and successful laboratory work often depends on highly experienced employees who have developed a feel for certain materials over many years. If they fail, it becomes difficult.
Insular knowledge is an incalculable risk, especially for time-critical projects and orders.

- Versioning
- Photo documentation
- User-defined fields
- Sharing methodological knowledge
- Mobile working in the lab
Use cases from practice
Powder characterization in the accredited test laboratory
Our customer uses various methods to characterize powder samples of different material classes for its own research department but also as a contract laboratory.
SAMPLES Highlights
Standardized procedures | photo documentation | fractionation | device connection
Mechanical testing with individual test procedure
A testing laboratory has developed its own method for the minimally invasive determination of strength values. The results are calculated from the measurement data using a complex algorithm.
SAMPLES Highlights
Integration of external data analysis | Management of test equipment | Method versioning
A better overview in the complex world of materials
Simply configure your individual views with just a few clicks and SAMPLES will give you all the information you need right now – and only this information. You can easily hide the rest.

Further developing best practices
Have you developed a new formulation for the preparation of a new material or improved an existing routine? Share your knowledge in an individual method – for efficient teamwork!
Your individual configuration
In SAMPLES you can easily set up everything yourself: parameters, methods, sample types, studies, etc.
For even more individualization, simply use user-defined fields and catalogs to map your individual process.
Linked methods and storage locations
There are hundreds of preparation and analysis methods in your laboratory, but only one that is suitable for your material – SAMPLES knows which one.
Do you have a sample that prefers cool and/or low-oxygen conditions? SAMPLES knows the preferences of such sample types and suggests a suitable storage location.
Back to the future with Audit Trail and Timeline
Nothing is as constant as change. Thanks to method versioning and the audit trail, you can track who made which changes and when at any time.
Orders, Test Plans, and Interfaces
You determine which tests are to be carried out with each of your samples.
If your samples are related to external test orders, these orders can be easily transferred to SAMPLES via an interface. The measurement results also find their way safely back to the client if required.
Export your data
You can export your sample lists, storage location allocations and all your measurement results to Excel at any time for further use as required.
