Overview of Industrial
Automation
2Northampton Community College
Automated System
Definition:
A Collection of devices working
together to accomplish tasks or
produce a product or family of
products.
3Northampton Community College
Automated Systems Examples
Automobiles:
On-board computer receives inputs from
various sensors to control various
outputs that regulate the engine’s
operation and other functions such as
antilock braking.

6Northampton Community College
Automated Systems Examples
Home security systems:
The controller receives inputs from
sensors on windows, doors, smoke
detectors, etc. When the controller
receives a signal that a door or window
is open, or there is smoke in the house,
it sounds an alarm and calls either the
police department and/or the fire
department.
7Northampton Community College
Automated Systems
Industrial automated systems can be
just one machine or a group of
machines. This group of machines is
commonly called a manufacturing
cell.
Four basic types of devices in a cell:
Production
Support
Control
Feedback

Robots
Commonly used in automation cells for:
Moving parts
Positioning parts
Welding
Assembling parts
Palletizing
Used when repetitive tasks are required.
Fast and accurate.
10Northampton Community College
Types of Robots
Several types of robots are
available. Each one has its own
advantages. Three basic types are:
Pneumatic
Hydraulic
Electric
11Northampton Community College
Pneumatic Robots
Advantages:
Used for simple positioning task.
Inexpensive
Fairly fast
Somewhat accurate
Disadvantages:
Cannot be used for complex tasks
Limited in the number of positions they
can move
12Northampton Community College
Electric Robots
Advantages:
Very versatile
Fast
Accurate and
repeatable
Can be used for
precision positioning
Disadvantages:
Expensive

Fastest Robot in the World
http://www.wimp.com/fastestrobot/
There is no possible way for your eyes to
keep up with what is hailed as the fastest
robot in the world. The TP80 Fast Picker
robot is designed to handle operations
with very small parts quickly and
efficiently.

Hydraulic Robots
Advantages:
Good for painting and heavy
applications
Fast and can move very smoothly
Can be used in hazardous areas
Disadvantages:
Somewhat dirty
Usually large
18Northampton Community College
Robot Integration
Most robots have digital I/O that can
easily be interfaced to PLC’s/PAC’s,
computers or other devices
They are relatively easy to program.
Robot positions are taught using either a
handheld teach pendent or a computer.
19Northampton Community College
Hard Automation
A device designed for one specific
purpose and has little or no
flexibility.
When the product that this device is
designed to build and/or handle is no
longer manufactured, the device is
usually worthless.
20Northampton Community College
Support Equipment
Includes:
Automated Storage/Automated
Retrieval equipment (AS/AR)
Conveyors
Hard automation devices
21Northampton Community College
Palletizers
Used to take boxes, bags, etc. from
a cell and pack them onto a pallet
containing many boxes, bags, etc.
The palletizer might also wrap the
items with plastic wrap or bands to
hold them together.
Considered hard automation, trends
in robotics are making them fall into
the support category.
