Agilent Technologies Introduces New Automation Brand

06 Feb 2009 - Agilent Technologies Inc. announced it has renamed Velocity11 as Agilent Automation Solutions. The company is also launching new products and applications designed to help researchers and scientists increase productivity and decrease costs. Agilent Automation Solutions is part of the Agilent's Life Sciences Solutions Unit. Agilent acquired Velocity11 in late 2007 and continues its focus on automating laboratory processes.
 
"Our name has changed, but our commitment to help our customers automate workflows has never been stronger," said Rob Nail, general manager, Agilent Automation Solutions Division. "Our revolutionary Direct Drive Robot and VWorks Automation Control Software enable scientists to focus on science, rather than the manual tasks that create significant inefficiencies in the lab."
