What is automation

What is automation

• Automation of production processes refers to the implementation of these processes with limited human participation. Accordingly, the system of automation of production processes is understood as a set of devices and devices connected with each other, with personnel, equipment that implements this production process, and related services, as well as methods of using this set.

The role and importance of automation Recently, the automation of production processes has become one of the main directions of technical progress. The efficiency of production automation is primarily due to an increase in labor productivity, i.e. the volume of product output per unit of time per one person employed in production. This is achieved both by automating the preparation of production and by automating the actual technological processes.

For the automation of production preparation and technological processes to be cost-effective, it is necessary to fulfill a number of conditions: increasing the manufacturability of product design; providing access to product design information; creation of technological processes that are progressive in terms of productivity, cost and ability to automate; providing access to information on the technological processes of manufacturing products; creation of conditions for technological assurance of product quality; availability of reliable and safe automation devices for all remaining non-automated elements of the work cycle.
