6 Reasons People Choose Automation

July 3, 2011
Here are a few of the reasons why many people choose to automate:
  1. Greater Productivity = Greater Profit: Automated software helps you to increase your productivity, and therefore to increase your profit. Automation can do a single task easily and quickly without the high risk of error that human employees or less advanced systems have. Plus, you won’t be spending a ton of money paying for manpower. Just make sure you choose a good, reliable software to avoid doing yourself more harm than good. GE Fanuc is currently one of the top rated automation software programs around, but do your research and choose the one that’s right for you.
  2. No More Defective Products: Not only does automated software guarantee an error free job, but it also alerts you to any defective products and stops manufacturing when a defect is detected. This can save you wasted time and wasted supplies.
  3. You Choose the Job: At any time, you have the power to program the automation software to begin a specific task. All you have to do is run the program, and the work you need will get started right away. You can even set up your software to perform certain tasks at a set time each day.
  4. No Whining: Unlike humans that can get easily bored (and unproductive!) because they are doing the same thing over and over again, automation systems can do the entire task for you without complaints. You can be sure that you will be using it for a long period of time.
  5. Jobs Done Correctly and Constantly: When you use an automation system, you’ll have the comfort and security of knowing that the entire task you’ve requested is being done correctly and constantly. You won’t have to worry whether or not one of your employees is slacking off or doing the job incorrectly
  6. More Money in Your Pocket: Automation systems can help you save a lot of money. Although you have to pay a hefty sum for the installation of the automation system, you can still gain that money again—plus some– because you won’t have to pay for labor, cost, or employee training. Plus, your profit will increase because of the greater productivity.
