Benefits of automation
Increase competitiveness
Automation allows you to become more competitive because your production processes are automated. Product quality becomes more consistent because there is less dependency on the human error. Costs per part goes down due to increased levels in production speeds. Automation helps increase production capacity because machines can now work 24/7 unmanned; and even if working alongside operatives they are faster and do not need to stop for breaks or holidays etc. This could lead to 50 – 60% increase in output on normal shift work.
Quality Compliance
This is improved by automated manufacturing because inspection systems can be installed at the in the production line using sensors and vision systems to check for product defects. Errors can be rectified almost immediately.
Reduces labour involvement
Mundane, repetitive and more difficult tasks can now be automated with labour even being eliminated in the production process.
Improvement in working conditions
Automation allows the possibility to improve working conditions within the production process. I.e reducing the risks to health and safety. Also can eliminate the risk of repetitive strain injury.
Employment
Because of improved conditions via automation it could make your business more attractive for the younger workforce. Adopting industry 4.0 technology makes your team stronger and more collaborative. Because of the availability of instant statistics management and production decisions can be operated with more real time effect.
