Automation Automation or automatic control, is the use of various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery, processes in factories, boilers and heat treating ovens, switching on telephone networks, steering and stabilization of ships, aircraft and other applications and vehicles with minimal or reduced human intervention. Automation is the implementation of a process by automatic means. Automation has been achieved by various means including mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, electronic devices and computers, usually in combination. Automatic. Pertaining to a function, operation , process, or device that, under specified conditions, functions without intervention by a human operator . 3
Benefits of automation Increased throughput or productivity. Improved quality or increased predictability of quality. Improved robustness (consistency) of processes. Increased consistency of output. Reduced direct human labour costs and expenses. 4
disadvantages Unpredictable/ excessive development cost High initial cost Unemployment 5

Types of automation Fixed automation Programmable automation Flexible automation 9
Fixed automation Fixed automation refers to the use of custom-engineered (special purpose) equipment to automate a fixed sequence of processing or assembly operations. This is also called hard automation. The primary drawbacks are the large initial investment in equipment and high production rates and the relative inflexibility. 10
Programmable automation In programmable automation, the equipment is designed to accommodate a specific class of product changes and the processing or assembly operations can be changed by modifying the control program For each new batch, the production equipment must be reprogrammed and changed over to accommodate the new product style. Suited to batch production Period of non-productive time followed by a production run for each new batch. 11
Flexible automation Extension of programmable automation. In flexible automation, the equipment is designed to manufacture a variety of products or parts and very little time is spent on changing from one product to another. a flexible manufacturing system can be used to manufacture various combinations of products according to any specified schedule. Customization The reprogramming of the equipment in flexible automation is done off-line 12

Automation and unemployment Some believe that unemployment is rising due to the robotics and automation, people’s brain and strength are needed every time in life. The bosses avoid paying high w age to human instead of automation . Despite people assume that robotics and automation increase the unemployment, human intelligence is on top of all technologies. 16
robotics
The origin of the word “ robot ” is ’ robota ’ which means hard labor . Robotics is the branch of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, electronic engineering and computer science engineering that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. Robot 17
History of robots In 1942 the science fiction writer Isaac Asimov created his Three Laws of Robotics. In 1948 Norbert Wiener formulated the principles of cybernetics, the basis of practical robotics. Fully autonomous robots are only appeared in the second half of the 20th century Real robots were only possible in the 1950's and 1960's with the introduction of transistors and Integrated circuits. 18
Advantages In Industries,build things like cars,and electronics,home made etc,,. In Nuclear science, Sea-exploration, Servicing of transmission electric signals, Designing of bio-medical equipments etc. Military and agriculture etc..., Robots need no environment comfort. More capabilities 19
Disadvantages High cost of Robots. Many techniques have not been developed for automation yet. Robotic System and robots are limited to their functions. Required maintance which is costly capablty in decision making people loss their jobs due to Humanoid robots. Dangers for human beings 20
