Automation Helps Humans Reduce Repetitive Tasks

Automation is usage of technology for performing a task. Repetitive tasks which are done manually have many errors. We can overcome this by automation. Automation helps humans stay away from repetitive tasks. It offers high level of efficiency. Organizations can achieve greater levels of productivity by helping employees reduce repetitive work through automation. Automation of repetitive tasks saves time and labor. It also increases accuracy of repetitive tasks. Automation is used to create shortcuts, prepare templates and preplanned programs etc.

Repetitive engineering tasks can be done quickly by design automation. Automation mainly reduces the complexity of an environment. It reduces repetitive tasks to a single keystroke or mouse click. It helps in reducing operational costs. It also reduces the level of expertise required for the repetitive daily tasks. An organization can free its staff from repetitive tasks by giving them work that challenges their ability and increases job satisfaction. Many complex repetitive tasks can be handled easily with automation.

Impact of Automation In Aerospace

Engineering analysis and design analysis are being automated in process industry in order to reduce costs and speed up design. Integrated Service management is an advanced approach of IT service management, which offers tools and processes that are used for driving with the present advanced automation techniques. This integrated service management uses the automated techniques and delivers the services effectively and efficiently which are useful for Aerospace and defense companies. Thus the automation techniques highly controls the aerospace and defense companies by

  • Improved response with better business visibility.
  • Building greater flexibility in business operations through higher levels of automation.
  • Reducing the operational cost, risk and even the complexity by combining business and IT services across any organization.
  • Improving a service-centric foundation for delivering higher –quality services to improved customer satisfaction.
The main advantages using automation in aerospace are
  • Automaton is used to meet the standard cost targets and required time constants for defense.
  • To solve difficult problems in the aircraft
  • High flexibility
  • Manage risk and complicated operations (pilot operations for starting and stopping the aero planes)
By using automation techniques in aerospace - disasters can be reduced and even the work of the pilot will be made simple. And there is flexibility in doing or performing those operations.

Importance Of Warehouse Automation

The importance of warehouse automation in the intensely competitive platform of current marketplace can be hardly overemphasized. Recognizing exactly the location where products are stored and the speedy method to transport them from those locations, in real time, will provide several advantages when orders are picked and transported. Automated warehouse systems offer more amount of time and cost savings. Warehouse automation integrated with RFID technology further improves efficiency and offers extra cost savings.

Most of the old warehouses are not able to operate quickly to provide products in an appropriate manner. This can be observed in both manual and traditional computerized systems. In most of the warehouse locations, data is hand recorded into the computer system, whereas warehouse workers work by picking orders and keeping stock away. The data created by the employees can be practically become obsolete by the time it is entered as input. This is because situations can alter quickly on the warehouse floor. When it occurs, it may become complex to answer customer requests if nobody knows when a shipment reached or when a batch was transported.

In an automated warehouse, all products are scanned (either by using barcodes or by radio frequency identification) as they advance in, out or around the warehouse. That data is loaded immediately to the computer system, which is then able to offer real-time information regarding where all things is located and how much of it is present. The inventory is automatically restored as the products are transported, without the requirement of any manual counting or data entry. In some situations, customers can directly log onto a warehouse web site and observe where their order is present in the system.

Report generation abilities are extremely improved apart from other benefits which automated warehouse systems offer. Inventory reports and elaborated invoicing can be produced directly from the computer system and do not have to be created separately. Moreover, the accuracy of reporting is significantly increased as it is supported by the latest, most updated, information.

Some companies have found that implementing automated warehouse systems has saved them significant amounts of operating capital and also provided a better rapid return on investment.
