Industrial Automation

Industrial automation is a system that enables varied technologies to interact with the use of automated control devices to produce quality results and reduce human effort and error.

The automation makes it possible to execute the automatic functioning of manufacturing operations without significant human intervention. This system involves control devices such as PLCs, PCs, PACs, and other industrial communication technologies.

Felidae Systems offers your Industry the following Industrial Automation Benefits:

• Enhanced Productivity – As mentioned, automated devices or equipment can function throughout the day without any fatigue naturally experienced by human workers and operators. Through industrial automation, there is a dramatic increase in production levels with fewer maintenance and repair episodes.
• Premium Quality at Higher Speed– Automated devices can perform targeted functions 24×7 without any stoppage. There is room for most minor human errors, converting error fluctuations from 1-1.5% to 0.00001%. Therefore, quality standards are drastically improved.
• Precise Manufacturing Control – Does away with manual process of decisions, reporting thereby reducing costly information-extracting processes that may contain human errors. This also results in increased reliability of the results obtained.
• High Flexibility – While the human workforce requires time-invested training procedures, task inputs added to assembly lines can produce results within a few hours. Therefore, automated devices and manufacturing robots can get programmed to perform complex tasks at affordable prices.
• Maximum Safety – Workers and operators can operate manufacturing processes that involve strong chemicals and heavy electrical voltage from a safe distance. The company also saves on spending significant finances on work-related accidents. Automated systems like robots handle all hazardous processes.

In industrial control, automated machinery can simultaneously sense several process variables such as temperature, flow, pressure, distance, and liquid levels. These variables are acquired, processed and controlled by complex microprocessor systems or PC-based data processing controllers.

Control systems are the essential parts of an automation system. The various types of closed-loop control techniques ensure the process variables follow set points. Furthermore, automation systems employ computing set points for control systems, plant startup or shut down, monitoring system performance, equipment scheduling, etc. The control systems, along with monitoring can adapt to the industry’s operating environment for a flexible, efficient and reliable production system.
