 Automation
 AUTOMATION is basically the delegation of human control functions to
technical equipment aimed towards achieving:
 Higher productivity.
 Superior quality of end product.
 Efficient usage of energy and raw materials.
 Improved safety in working conditions etc.

 Scientific automation  Light automation

Example: rocket launching Example: street solar lightening

 Industrial automation
Example: automated bottle filling
stations , chemical mixing etc

Industrial Automation:
• The technology by which a process or procedure is accomplished
without human assistance.
• A technique that can be used to reduce costs and/or to improve
quality.
• Can increase manufacturing speed, while reducing cost.
• Can lead to products having consistent quality, perhaps even
consistently good quality
•It is implemented using a program of instructions combined with a
control system that executes the instructions.

•To automate a process, power is required, both to drive the process

itself and to operate the program and control system.
• Automated processes can be controlled by human operators, by
computers, or by a combination of the two.

 BASIC ELEMENT OF AN AUTOMATED SYSTEM
• Consists of 3 basic elements:
1) The actuator (which does the work)
• Controlled by the controller.
• The actuator in a automated process may in fact be several
actuators, each of which provides an output that drives another
in the series of actuator.
• Some actuators can only be on and off. Other actuators
respond proportionally with the signal they receive from a
controller
• Actuators can be selected for the types of inputs they require,
either DC or AC.
 .
2) The controller (which ‘tells’ the actuator to do work)
• A controlled system either may be a simple digital
system or an analog system.
• Digital and analog controllers are available ‘off the shelf’
so that systems can be constructed inexpensive and with
little specialized knowledge required.

3) The sensor (which provides feedback to the controller so

that it knows the actuator is doing work)

• Obviously, controlled automation requires devices to

sense system output.
• Sensors also can be used so that a controller can detect
and respond to changing conditions in its working
environment
