ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS AND SOLUTIONS

Industrial automation uses control systems and equipment, such as computer software and robots to perform tasks that were historically conducted manually. These systems operate industrial equipment automatically, significantly reducing the level of operator involvement and oversight required. Automation systems typically consist of feedback loops and sensory programs that automatically adjust operating conditions to meet the desired values based on real-time data. The technologies used in industrial automation have advanced significantly in recent years due to digitalization of manufacturing, especially with the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) – opening up more and more opportunities for companies to take advantage of automation solutions.

Industrial automation allows faster production with less errors and increased product flexibility. Systems with advanced complexity, multiple changeovers or a variety of repetitive tasks can often benefit from automation. Automation also allows to gather critical operating data faster and more efficiently and guaranteed optimized operation with the best information available at all times. Ultimately, automation is becoming industry standard and will keep you up to date with competitors who are relying on automated processes for total control of the plant floor.

No, Simple systems that don’t require many repetitive tasks are often over engineered by automation. The goal when you automate a process is to achieve a higher efficiency and faster production, but if you’re automating the wrong systems or if you don’t have the proper bandwidth to handle the new technology, it can backfire. It’s important to consider a few things when determining how and when to go about automating your plant, namely:

  • Why do I want to automate? (Less employees, more efficiency, reduce errors, faster production, multiple changeovers, better information to improve process, modernization?)
  • What system would be the most effective as an automated system? These are typically the systems that are repetitive and that don’t involve any creativity or the “human touch” to execute.
  • What teams do I have in place to make this automation project a success?
  • How will my existing teams and systems integrate with this new automation?

A good automation engineer will only provide the automation you need.
