- 2. INTRODUCTION Automation means the use or introduction of automatic equipment in a manufacturing or other process or facility. The use of computers to control a particular process in order to increase reliability and efficiency. For a manufacturer, this could entail using robotic assembly lines to manufacture a product. Automation is broadly classified into • Manufacturing automation • Service automation
- 3. Contd… Types of automation: • Fixed automation • Programmable automation • Flexible automation Advantages of automation: • Fast • Repeatable • Reusable • Reliable • Comprehensive • Programmable
- 4. TRENDS The trend of automation has found Application in various fields as shown below DCS(Distributed Control Systems) PLCs (programmable controller and I/O modules) CNC (computer numerical control) Embedded computer board Sensors / Measurement Equipment Motor control, Motion control, Machine vision Pharmaceutical , Consumables, Automotive Manufacturing Material Handling Process, Refining, Chemical techniques Food & Beverage
- 5. Contd… In the next five years I would like to make impact on PLCs (Programmable controller and I/O modules) . Expanding competitive situation world wide is driving need for increase need for better / finer control. Increased need in system diagnostics to reduce maintenance and production costs. Solutions need to cover a wide range of IO module parameters, features and specifications.
- 6. INTEREST AREAS Interested area in automation is industrial automation. For example Industrial automation can and will generate explosive growth with technology related to new points: nanotechnology ,MEMS and nanotech sensors which can measure everything and anything. I would like work on automation techniques to produce better products to the society meeting all expectations.
