Yokogawa Electric Corporation is a developer and distributor of measurement and control equipment as well as information management software.

History

Yokogawa Electric Corporation was founded in 1915 as an electric meter research institute. The company later expanded its operations to industrial instruments and automation systems.^[1]

A July 2020 report from ARC Advisory Group suggested that its Lab-Aid LIMS was renamed to OpreX LIMS^[2]; however, as of October 2020, the website has not been updated to reflect such a name change. The website was updated by January 2021 to reflect the name change.^[3]

Technology and products

OpreX and CIMVisionLIMS

OpreX is a laboratory information management system (LIMS) that "standardizes quality management operations to reduce costs and improve the service level." The LIMS is marketed towards "quality management and testing departments of manufacturers and analysis service providers."^[4]

CIMVisionLIMS is a LIMS / quality management solution for the pharmaceutical industry.^[5] The software may not be available outside of Japan, however.

Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:

the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
the feature does not exist for the product.

A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.
