Automation is the use of software and hardware in machines to automatically perform tasks such as material handling, packing, welding, etc.
Industries served:
Recycling
Manufacturing
Waste
Reduce Production Cost Initial set up costs are high but
justified by a speedy return on investment (ROI)
Increase Process Speed Computer systems process
information much faster than humans
Increase Efficiency The repetition of tasks is
programmed into the system so no breaks or stoppages are required
Reduce Waste Robots are able to handle materials
more accurately so the amount of waste leftover is lower
Reduce Margin of Error The margin of error in automation
software is significantly lower than that of humans because it is a programmed process
Increased Safety Humans run the risk of injury when
preforming dangerous tasks, machines don’t.
