What is Industrial Automation?
Industrial automation is the use of various control devices — PLCs, SCADA, VFD, HMI, DCS — to operate various industry processes without significant human intervention and to provide automatic control performance. ControlIcon strategies use a set of technologies to achieve desired performance or output, making automation systems most essential for industries.
Industrial automation involves advanced control strategies, modern control hardware, sensors, signal conditioning equipment, drives, standalone computing systems, communication systems, alarming and HMI systems. Automation has been achieved through mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, electronic and computer means — typically in combination.
Complicated systems — such as modern factories, airplanes and ships — typically use all these combined techniques. The real race to automate manufacturing began in the 1980s, when manufacturers envisioned "lights-out" manufacturing where entire processes could be left to robots.
Key Automation Components
Industrial Automation in Manufacturing
Industrial automation in manufacturing is the use of intelligent machines in factories so that manufacturing processes can be carried out with minimal human intervention. It involves the application of various control systems to enable operating equipment to carry out tasks that require speed, endurance and precision on their own.
The main benefits include leaner operation processes that require less energy, less material and reduced labour waste — leading to improvements in quality, accuracy and precision. Today's industrial robots have high computing capabilities, vastly improved vision systems and increasing operational degrees of freedom.
With the rapid development of microcomputer and software technologies, automation in manufacturing is almost totally dependent on the capabilities of computers and software to automate, optimise and integrate the various components of the manufacturing system — often called Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM).
Industrial Safety
Our curriculum covers MCC Panels, panel wiring, designing and industrial safety standards — ensuring candidates are workplace-ready from day one.
The Future of Industrial Automation
Industrial robots of the future will be multi-functional so that the same machine can be put to several different uses. They will have many capabilities associated with human workers — the ability to make decisions and to work autonomously.
They will also have self-diagnostic and predictive maintenance capabilities. Thanks to industrial automation, the factory of the future will be more efficient in the utilisation of energy, raw material and human resources.
Contrary to popular belief, the experience so far has shown that automation will not cause mass unemployment. On the contrary, the mass use of robots will create more jobs. Humans and robots will work together to create a more efficient and productive workspace.
Although industrial automation is not without detractors, its future looks very bright. EGAI prepares engineers to be at the forefront of this revolution — equipped with practical skills that industry demands today.
