Due to the steady growth of consumer needs, companies are forced to increase their productivity. At the same time, they face a number of problems, among which are the deterioration of quality and optimization costs, as well as the growing consumption of human resources. Production automation systems can solve the above difficulties, as well as open new frontiers of productivity.
Production automation is a process in which previously performed human control and management functions are fully transmitted to automatic devices. very often automation is confused with mechanization. To avoid confusion, it should be remembered that mechanization is the simplification of human work through the use of automated equipment, and production automation is the use of an automatic system to control and manage the entire process. in other words, automatic control systems (ACS) exclude the presence of a person during operations and control the stages of execution.
