Factory Automation Market Report Analysis:

Three Categories of Manufacturing Systems-

Category

Description

Manual Work System

One (or more) workers performing one (or more) tasks without powered tools. Typical example is the material handling task. In production tasks the use of hand tools is pre-dominant, sometimes with optional work-holder. Examples include: filing milled parts; checking quality of parts with micrometer; moving cartons using a dolly; and, assembling machinery using hand tools.

Worker-Machine Systems

A human worker operates powered equipment, in various combinations of one (or more) workers, and one (or more) pieces of equipment. Relative strengths of humans and machines are combined. Examples include: machinist operating engine lathe; a fitter working with an industrial robot; a crew of workers operating a rolling mill; and personnel performing work on a mechanized conveyor.

Automated Systems

Process is performed by machine without the direct participation of a human worker. Automation uses a programmed of instructions and a control system for implementation; there are two sub-categories: semi-automated, and fully automated. Semi-automation implies only part of the work cycle is completely automated, with other work done by a human worker. A fully automated machine, on the other hand, has the capacity to operate for extended periods of time (longer than one work cycle) with no human interaction. However, although fully automated, human monitoring may still be used. Examples include: injection moulding machines; and automated processes in oil refineries and nuclear power plants.
