There is an increasing need for high accuracy, quality, precision, and performance in industrial processing systems and the industries that use them.
Industrial automation reduces the need for wires, utilizing highly control capable computers and devices to ensure increased production and more efficient manufacturing.
automation can streamline a manufacturer’s production line and increase the production rate at the same time. It drives down the amount of product waste produced so that the product quality is maintained.
Another critical benefit of automation is that it can be employed to reduce unscheduled downtimes. While many manufacturers forgo implementing this functionality due to the initial costs involved, I believe the ROI could be substantial. Employing automation to reduce downtimes could be as simple as programming a machine to watch the run-times on motors or to determine how many times a valve has cycled. The system could automatically send maintenance a message, informing them, for instance, when a piece of equipment on the production line needs to be scheduled for service. Alternatively, this process could be more complex and utilize sensors and software with machine learning and be employed to detect small issues like air leaks. Or, it could be more predictive, programmed to send out alerts to predict equipment failures within months, days, or even minutes.
*Quality Control
with the current advancements in automation and vision systems, automated quality control now far outpaces human facilitated manual inspections. It is faster, more consistent, and more cost-effective. Machines do not have the weaknesses of their human counterparts – they do not suffer from fatigue or get lost in thought and make human errors. Thanks to the development of 2D and 3D vision systems, we can now inspect for product size, shape, and color, all without relying on human labor – the possibilities are endless! Even bar code reading vision systems now ensure the right label and packaging for a product is always displayed correctly and accurately without the need for human intervention.
Long gone are the days of manual data entry. Operational excellence is now executed with real-time data acquisition. Manufacturers can quickly make changes to their production lines, reduce waste, and lower production costs. They can track customer complaints or quality issues back to their origin and resolve them faster and easier through data logging and historical data collection. Manufacturers can use the collected data to prevent future quality control issues and eliminate risks that might hurt their businesses (such as a product recall). Historical data can also be a useful tool for identifying bottlenecks on the production line.
*Advantages of Automation
Perhaps the best advantage of automation is that it lowers costs. Automated technologies are available that monitor energy consumption to help manufacturers make informed decisions on how to reduce energy costs. Automation reduces labor costs and gives manufacturers the ability to lower raw material costs by reducing waste.
It’s clear that automation has come a long way from its primitive beginnings. Today automation is in every facet of the manufacturing industry helping us to reduce waste and meet manufacturing quality control and regulatory compliance requirements. Indeed, automation is a great tool for reducing time, keeping production on schedule, and, of course, cutting the cost of manufacturing.
