LabLog
Implementation considerations
Implementation starts with site measurements, the operating route and daily load. LabLog coordinates the model with layout, animals, utilities, cleaning, operator safety, installation and service access.
How LabLog supports the project
- 01Capture site, animal and operating-cycle data
- 02Check dimensions, routes and utility connections
- 03Agree the model, options and supply boundaries
- 04Prepare installation, commissioning and operator training
- 05Define maintenance and spare-parts needs
