This presentation discusses automation in production lines. It defines automation as applying electronics, mechanical, and computer control systems to operate and control production without human intervention to improve productivity and quality. Some benefits of automation include increased labor productivity, reduced costs, improved worker safety, and better product quality. The presentation covers automation history, control systems, sensors/actuators, automated machines, industrial robotics, and other automation components. It also lists advantages like accurate information, faster fault identification, increased production, and reduced costs, as well as disadvantages such as technology limits and high initial costs.

2. Introduction
• Automation can be defined as a technology concerned with the
application of electronics,mechanical & computer-based control
systems to operate and control the production.
• To perform a task without human intervation to improve the
productivity & quality
• CNC,PLC,Automated guided vehicle,robots

4. history
1.Manual control
2.Pneumatic control
3.Hard wire logic control
4.Electronic control using gate
5.PLC

5. Reasons for automation
1. To increase labor productivity
2. To reduce labor cost
3. To improve worker safety
4. To improve product quality
5. To reduce manufacturing lead time
6. To accomplish processes that cant be done manually

6. Control Systems
Sensors and Actuators
Automated Machine Tools
Industrial Robotics
Logic Controllers
Handling Systems
Storage Systems
Identification Systems
Manufacturing Cells
Assembly Lines
Flexible Manufacturing Systems

20. • Linear transfer systems:
Continuous motion –not common for automated systems
Synchronous motion –intermittent motion, all parts move
simultaneously
Asynchronous motion –intermittent motion, parts move
independently
• Rotary indexing mechanisms:
Geneva mechanism
Others

22. advantages
• Accurate & consistent information
• Faster fault identification
• Increased production
• Improved availability of system
• Reduced cost
• Maintenance of quality & quantity
• Improved safety conditions

23. disadvantages
• Technology limits:current technology is unable to
automate all the desired tasks
• Unpredictable development cost
• High initial cost
