Industrial Automation Overview
Industrial automation adds machine intelligence to manufacturing processes so your business can achieve scalable efficiencies. Automation empowers businesses to effectively deliver products to take on their competitors. Applying greater technical know-how and a refined strategy allows a business to produce quality goods at reasonable costs. The benefits of automation systems include lower operating costs, reduction of human error and reduction of labor waste while also synchronizing procedures and improving production quality, accuracy and workplace safety. Automation solutions that reduce risk and hazard in dangerous work environments will also reduce business liability from accidents. All of these factors help your business achieve faster product life cycles. Industrial automation systems can be applied to almost any industry, from automating the collection of raw materials and movement of these materials through pipelines, conveyors, trucks/railcars/barges and other methods, to creating finished products and, ultimately, the oversight and management of a company’s entire portfolio of assets using sophisticated SCADA software and back office ERP systems.
Customer Challenges
Industrial businesses face many challenges, including increased global competition from smaller, more nimble manufacturers and attracting/training skilled workers when the older, knowledgeable workforce retires. How will you compete and deliver on a large scale yet maintain flexibility to adapt to inconsistent demand that might arise based on changing market trends or economic outlook? How can you ensure the security of plant and operational data while avoiding major production downtimes? How do you improve regulatory compliance while improving system maintenance without increased labor costs?
Your business might also be faced with Operational Challenges like:
- Increasing product demand with limited production output or manufacturing space
- Regulatory changes that impede growth
- Existing production processes that focus on manual labor
- Longer lead times and missed delivery dates due to higher customer expectations
- Changing economics of your supply chain or value chain
- Competition from smaller manufacturers using new technologies
- Cyber security concerns with operational data digitization and data management
