 • The dictionary defines automation as
“the technique of making an apparatus,
a process, or a system operate
automatically”.

Automation • It also define as:

Definition • the use of machines and computers
that can operate without needing
human control

• Automation describes a wide range of

technologies that reduce human
intervention in processes.

 • Technology concerned with the application of
electronics, mechanical and computer-based
systems to operate and control the production

 Increase Increase labor productivity

Reduce Reduce labor cost

Manufacture will be able Mitigate Mitigate the effects of labor shortages

to performing tasks, and
it could be done without Eliminate Eliminate routine manual and clerical tasks
human intervention to
improve the productivity Improve Improve worker safety
and quality
Reduce Reduce lead time

Accomplish Accomplish processes that can not be done manually

Automation
Principles
• Automation in manufacture
should choose carefully.
Not all activities/ tasks can be
replaced by automation.
• Caution, benefit, other factors
should observe and review
before applying automation
technologies

Automate the
Process
• When the process has been
reduced to its simplest form
Then
Automation considered

• The possible form of automation

include those listed in the ten
strategies

Phase on Automation Migration
Phase 1: Manual production using single station
manned cells operation independently

Phase 2: Automated production using single

station automated cells operating independently

Phase 3: Automated integrated production using a multi

station automated system with serial operations and
automated transfer of work units between stations
