SpinPilot – The Future of NMR Automation

SpinPilot is Bruker’s next‑generation automation software for TopSpin, designed to simplify everyday NMR. In this webinar, we will introduce its intuitive web interface, profile‑based configuration, and secure user management. We will also show how typical NMR automation workflows translate to SpinPilot. This will help you run experiments faster and prepare your lab for future capabilities.
SpinPilot brings a modern, browser‑based experience to NMR automation. You will see how profiles and roles separate instrument configuration from user management, enabling cleaner multi‑user setups. We will demonstrate queue and quota concepts, template‑driven experiment setup, and options for Python‑based customization.
We will also highlight integration touchpoints with TopSpin 5 and discuss migration tips, training resources, and where to find updates. The session concludes with Q&A.
Key Learning Points:
- Learn how SpinPilot’s modern, web‑based automation pairs with TopSpin 5
- Configure profiles, roles, and BioSpin IAM for secure access
- Standardize experiments with templates, queues, and quotas
- Translate your IconNMR tasks seamlessly; extend with Python for advanced workflows and reporting
- Plan a smooth migration with training materials, release highlights, and a live Q&A, including timelines, support contacts, and resource links.
