EMJ47104 AUTOMATION
By: Jefri Efendi Mohd Salih
1.0 Introduction to Automation Technology
OUTLINE:
1.1 Automation in production systems
1.2 Type of manufacturing systems automation
1.3 Basic elements of an automated system
1.4 Advanced automated function
1.5 Levels of Automation
1.6 Reason for automated and not automated
1.7 Social and Safety issues of industrial automation
OBJECTIVES:
1. To explain the definition of industrial automation
2. To distinguish between fixed, programmable and flexible
automation
3. To classify the element of automation function and level
4. To define the reason of automation, social and safety issues in
automation
, 1.1 AUTOMATION IN PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
Automation is a technology dealing with the application of mechatronics and
computers for production of goods and services.
The automated elements of the production system can be separated into two
categories:
1.Automation of the manufacturing systems in the factory
2.Computerization of the manufacturing support systems
In modern manufacturing systems, the two categories overlap to some extent :
automated manufacturing system operating on the factory floor are often
implemented by computer systems and connected to the computerized
manufacturing support system and management information system operating
plant and enterprise level.
Question:
What is difference between industrial robotic system and automation
system?
, 1.1 AUTOMATION IN PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
Level of automation
Enterprise level
Plant level
Cell or system level
Machine level
Device level
, 1.1 AUTOMATION IN PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
1.1.1 Automated Manufacturing System
In an industrial context, we can define automation as a technology
that is concerned with the use of mechanical, electrical /electronic
and computer based system to control production process.
Example of this technology include :
transfer lines that perform a series of machining operation
mechanical assembly machines
feedback control systems
numerically controlled machine tools
logistic support tools
automated inspection system for quality control
automated material handling system and storage system to integrate
manufacturing operation
CAD/CAM system and robots- robots are mechatronic devices that
assist industrial automation.
