The Realities of Modern

Manufacturing

Globalization - underdeveloped countries (e.g., China,

India, Mexico) are becoming major players in

manufacturing

International outsourcing - Parts and products once madelocally are now being made offshore (in China or India) or 

near-shore (in Eastern Europe)

Local outsourcing - Use of suppliers locally to provide

parts and services

More Realities of Modern

Manufacturing

Contract manufacturing - Companies that specialize in

manufacturing entire products, not just parts, under 

contract to other companies

Trend toward the service sector  Quality expectations - Customers, both consumer and

corporate, demand products of the highest quality

Need for operational efficiency - manufacturers must be

efficient in their operations to overcome the labor cost

advantage of international competitors

 Automated system

Basically Industrial

automation is the use of 

robotic devices to

complete manufacturingtasks.

Use of computerized or 

robotic machines which

are capable of handlingrepetitive tasks quickly

and efficiently

 Automated System

Examples: Automated machine tools

Transfer lines

Automated assembly systems

Industrial robots

Automated material handling and storage systems

Automatic inspection systems for quality control

 Automation Principle

1. Understand the existing process

Input/output analysis

Value chain analysis

Charting techniques and mathematical modeling2. Simplify the process

Reduce unnecessary steps and moves

3. Automate the process

Analysis of requirement different machines for different processes

Replacement of manpower from robots and

machines

Fixed  Automation

Sequence of processing (or assembly) operations is fixed by

the equipment configuration

Typical features: Suited to high production quantities

High initial investment for custom-engineered equipment

High production rates

Relatively inflexible in accommodating product variety

Flexible  Automation

System is capable of changing over from one job to the next

with little lost time between jobs

Typical features: High investment for custom-engineered system

Continuous production of variable mixes of products

Medium production rates

Flexibility to deal with soft product variety

Programmable  Automation

Capability to change the sequence of operations througreprogramming to accommodate different productconfigurations

Typical features:

High investment in programmable equipment

Lower production rates than fixed automation

Flexibility to deal with variations and changes in

product configuration

Most suitable for batch production

Physical setup and part program must be changedbetween jobs (batches)

Reasons for  Automating

1. To increase labor productivity

2. To reduce labor cost

3. To mitigate the effects of labor shortages

4. To reduce or remove routine manual and clerical tasks

5. To improve worker safety

6. To improve product quality

7. To reduce manufacturing lead time

8. To accomplish what cannot be done manually

9. To avoid the high cost of not automating
