The automation system plays an important role with production and assembly processes. This becomes most clear on the level of the production parts and means. It is there where the work is done according to the recepies or routing which are already defined in the control system.
Product order, treatment order and machine controls can be adjusted in a flexible way when production circumstances change. Robots and/or special machines or PLC control systems are carrying out the production tasks while the transport systems automaticly handle the supply and routing of the transport. This together with a high velocity which is demanded of the control system.
Your profit: A production line which is fast and efficiently can be adjusted to a changed product specification or market situation.
