2025: Building a Digital Laboratory
The company Component"," a full-cycle laboratory and production complex, which is the developer of formulations of protective and decorative anti-corrosion paint materials for various, industries industries presented a project for a digital laboratory - an intelligent platform based on technologies artificial intelligence and. machine learning The company announced this on April 7, 2025.
The digital lab will generate between 600 and 1,200 new formulations daily, vastly outperforming traditional methods. Automation will cover up to 95% of routine tasks, replacing the work of 200 to 400 laboratory assistants, and will reduce the time for developing new products from several months to several days.
The introduction of the Digital Laboratory is part of the Component investment project aimed at localizing production and creating new enterprises. The company is considering the possibility of creating a new enterprise with an investment of about 1 billion rubles and a digital laboratory with investments of about 3 billion rubles.
Among the key advantages of the digital laboratory are significant resource savings by reducing the cost of salaries, training and equipment for hundreds of employees, as well as minimizing errors thanks to algorithms with an accuracy of 99.8%. The acceleration of product launch will be achieved by testing thousands of recipe options per hour instead of manual selection, which will allow you to quickly adapt to changes in demand or environmental standards. In addition, the company will be able to first implement solutions that are not available to competitors, reducing the time for developing formulations by 70% - from 6 months to 6 weeks.
The work on the implementation of the digital laboratory confirms the desire of the "Component" to innovative leadership and strengthen its position in the market. Now the company is actively working on the implementation of its plans to develop modifications for special equipment, aviation and railway, conduct experiments and tests to optimize software, register development in Rospatent and develop formulations of innovative PMs for customer requirements using a digital laboratory, as well as the production of protective coatings for the obtained solutions.
