Automation can be defined as the technology by which a process or procedure is performed without human assistance.
In other words, Automation or automatic control, is the use of various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery, processes in factories, boilers and heat treating ovens, switching on telephone networks, steering and stabilization of ships, aircraft and other applications and vehicles with minimal or reduced human intervention. Some processes have been completely automated.

Why is automation so widely used today? 

1. Improving efficiency and control quality
Most of mechanical automation devices are able to automatically process and control the information, they are more sensitive, accurate and wider than manual in inspection area. The automatic control system makes sure that the execution of mechanism is conform to the design, which will be not affected by operators. Thus the production efficiency and quality can be ensured indirectly. For example, the CNC machine is mare stable and its production efficiency is 2 to 6 times of the ordinary machine; if the machine is equipped with flexible manufacturing system the utilization can make 1.2 to 3.2 times better, the number of machine tools can be reduced by 20%, the manpower can be reduced by 20%, the lead time can be reduced by 40% and the cost can be reduced by 20%. Besides, the mechanical automation devices can be adjusted by programming, so they are especially suitable for the production of multi-variety and small-batch products. In general, they are the good method for manufacturers to shorten the product development cycle and accelerate the upgrade.



2. Improving the production safety and reliability
Mechanical automation devices generally can automatically self-monitor, self-alarm, self-diagnosis, self-protect. When devices overload, overpressure, overcurrent, short circuit and meet other power failure during running, they will automatically start the protection program which will avoid accidents and improve the safety. Mechanical automation devices is consist of many electronic components, which reduce the movable components and wear parts, then they are more sensitivity and reliable, thus the failure rate is reduced and service life is longer.

3. Easy to adjust and maintain
The mechanical automation devices is adjustable by programming to meet various requirements and no need to change any components and parts. If the devices can memorize data, engineers can design several kinds of program and input in the devices, then the devices can change the execution base on different products and programs. Automated inspection and automatic monitoring of mechanical automation devices can automatically prevent failures in the working process and self-restore. Since the widespread adoption of program control and digital display in mechanical automation devices, the operation buttons and handle are reduced, so the operation is more convenient and simple. The motion of the mechanical automation devices is controlled by electronic control system, so they can recently complete all motions. The advanced mechanical automation devices can automatically optimize the operation base on the mathematical model of products and the change of the external parameters.

4. With compound function and widely applicable
Mechanical automation devices are compound and widely applicable, which get rid of the restriction of single function and technology of mechanical and electrical products. The automation level of them is improved greatly. The flexible and intelligent mechanical automation devices can automatically control, compensate, calibrate, adjust and protect themselves, so they can be applied to different occasions and different fields, to meet different requirements.

5. Improving working conditions
Mechanical automation devices are knowledge-intensive and technology-intensive. High level of automation can reduce labor intensity, prompt the factory automation, office automation, agricultural automation, transportation, automation, and even home automation.

Non-standard automation equipment industry as a whole presents an obvious upward trend, that is, non-standard automation equipment market has broad space, and even some traditional industries may become the most potential market. However, the number of non-standard enterprises in China is relatively large; the scale is small; the technology is backward; competition homogeneity is also obvious shortcomings, and in this field there is a gap of at least 10 years with developed countries. New non-standard automation equipment is often mechanics equipment, making full use of the latest achievements of information technology. Designers in some Chinese enterprises are not familiar with the products, dare not or will not choose them, which greatly limits the improvement of the level. Many core technologies are not really independent, and it is obviously difficult to reduce the cost of importing equipment. At present, high-end products, such as industrial robots and servo motors, are still mainly imported from abroad.

Although the non-standard automation equipment industry as a whole presents an obvious trend, the market space of non-standard automation equipment is vast, and even some traditional industries may become the biggest market potential. However, with the growth of similar enterprises in China, the proportion of non-standard automation products produced in China is steadily increasing.

How do Selective Purchasing on Non-standard Automation Equipment

At present, the market demand for non-standard automation equipment is growing. When we choose non-standard automation equipment, what situations should we pay attention to? Today I'll explain it to you! 

First, is it necessary to put automation equipment into the process? Generally, importing automation equipment instead of manual operation is considered in the following cases: 
1. Work environment is poor, such as spraying and welding. 
2. Manual operation makes the quality of products unstable or not up to customer requirements; 
3. The product is larger or heavier, and the manual operation is difficult. 
4. The product has a long production cycle and service life. I personally recommend that automation be carefully evaluated for the sake of labor savings only. 

Second, is the process suitable for putting in automation equipment? 
1. Stability of components: Is the quality of products flowing down the upstream stable? If the components are unstable, the quality of the products processed by the equipment may not be as good as that manually, or it may cause frequent shutdown of the equipment. 
2. Operation complexity: The complexity of operation determines the cost of automation equipment and the feasibility of automation equipment technology. Even for industrial robots, complex assembly operations are difficult to achieve. 
3. Packaging mode of components: If you want to realize automatic feeding, you need to change the original packaging mode so that the feeding mechanism can grasp the components. The cost increase caused by changing the packaging mode needs to be calculated into the automation cost. 
4. Separability of components: If you want to achieve manual feeding, you need to evaluate the separability of components, especially for some small parts, such as screw. 

Third, how can automation design meet the requirements of lean model? 
1. Use small single-task equipment instead of large multi-task equipment; the more complex the equipment is, the higher the cost is, the worse the reliability is, and the lower the flexibility to cope with changes in demand. 
2. Not blindly pursue high-speed equipment. The efficiency of equipment should meet the demand and ensure the quality of products as the principle. 
3. Avoid batch processing equipment as far as possible. Although batch processing equipment has certain advantages in efficiency, it will hinder the flow and make the production cycle too long. 

These are the three main points for you. I hope to help you better select non-standard automated assembly equipmentwith higher price ratio.

How Should We Position Ourselves In The Digital Era Of Industrial Manufacturing

With the development of intelligent manufacturing technology, new technologiesnew industries, new forms of business and new models keep emerging. More and more industries hope to replace human beings with intelligent robots to solve the industrial development. But for some jobs suitable for automation, humans will be replaced by machines. Front-line technicians will be replaced by automation equipment.

The transformation of intelligent manufacturing brings not only challenges but also opportunities. New technologies can drive business growth, create jobs and demand for expertise. The importance of talent will become more prominent. Most of the factory's transformation to automation equipment has been replaced by rows of highly skilled automation equipment with few workers. Therefore, the upgrading of talents' skills and enterprises' transformation and upgrading should be carried out simultaneously.

The Central Economic Work Conference held at the end of 2018 called for high-quality development of the manufacturing sector. At present, intelligent manufacturing is becoming an important direction of manufacturing reform, and more and more enterprises choose the path of transformation and upgrading. Dongguan YIHEDA automation co., ltd. is a company focusing on the customized research and development of non-standard automation equipment. Specializing in factory automation solutions in the field of manufacturing for more than a decade, deeply feel the rapid change of intelligent manufacturing technology. Therefore, I am deeply aware of the importance of synchronizing the transformation and upgrading of enterprises with the skills of talents, as well as the need to improve the professional skills and quality of labor force.

New technologies can drive business growth, create jobs and demand for expertise. But for some jobs suitable for automation, humans will be replaced by machines.

2019 is a tough year, but it may be "the year of the awakening of the robot industry". After the market gave us a "loud slap", "there is no shortcut to take, only step by step, precipitation, development and persistence." That's the lesson most people learn. For workers, there is a need to take responsibility for the learning path in the current transition and be more attuned to the concept of lifelong learning.

Assembly automation machines refer to the assembly of products through the use of automated machinery or assembly robots and systems. Only a small part of the work is controlled by people. In most cases, automation is often used to produce a standardized product assembly line for a series of specific actions or activities. Automated assembly is an important part of many technology companies and medical research plants.

Today, automation components in many factories are used to create components and then assemble a variety of products, from the food industry to the electronics industry. Workers only need on-site supervision to ensure that the assembly line process can be maintained and their ability to produce thousands of high-quality products can be maximized in the shortest possible time.

Medical research facilities and food processing factories often use automated assembly processes in areas where human contact may lead to danger or product contamination. Manipulators or robotic equipment are used to deal with the sealed environment in the above product systems to minimize this risk.

Large manufacturing companies use larger automated assembly equipment, including large-scale products such as automobiles that use heavy robotic equipment. In these environments, except that only a few workers operate in the central control center, the other processes are to assemble vehicles independently using assembly systems. Although this form of manufacturing looks more like a replacement for manual work, it reduces casualties and human failures.

In recent years, with the prosperity of the domestic electronic industry, the industry of our automated assembly machine has also taken advantage of the rising trend. At the same time, many manufacturers are gradually carrying out automation reform, replacing manual labor with machines, so many enterprises are rushing to introduce automation equipment, but its main equipment is automated assembly machine.

Features of the automated assembly machine:

Firstly, the automated assembly machine saves the cost to the enterprise. Because it can operate efficiently without human being, as long as one person feeds, it can be the efficiency of many people and save a lot of labor cost effectively.

Secondly, the automated assembly machine has good versatility and can store many sets of programs. As long as the customer changes the product size, the product program can be changed.

Thirdly, when designing, we have designed more product procedures, so it is convenient to change the products when making later production. By simply replacing the fixture, the production can be realized by simple programming, which is very convenient for enterprises to produce.

Fourthly, we all adopt the imported track to effectively ensure the stability of the machine and eliminate the adverse effects caused by human factors. The imported components also effectively ensure the stability of the machine.

Fifthly, with efficiency and convenience, an automated assembly machine can save about 5 people.
