Before defining the basics of automation, we need to understand the meaning of automation. Automation is a combination of two words. Automatic + operation From here you can guess what it means.

 Let's move on to the basic definition of automation. 

Automation is a technique in which a device, machine, or process is fully automated. What humans used to do will now be replaced by robots and machines. 

Let us consider this with an example.

There is a toy company that makes toys. We have to pack them. If we use workers to pack toys, we will lose a lot of time in the first place. Then there may be many errors in the packaging. Then the working employees will also have to pay salaries. 

What will we do now?

 If we use machines instead of workers to pack toys. The machines will do what the workers were doing. This will save us a lot of time, a lot of money and a lot of mistakes.

Types Of Automation

There are basically three types of automation. Fixed automation, programmable automation, flexible automation, the manufacturing process in fixed automation is fixed. 

It does not change the value of the equipment. Fixed automation has a very high production rate. This automation is widely used in the automobile industry. Can control operation equipment in programmable automation. 

With the help of your own program. Its production rate is very high. Flexible automation looks at the problems of both programmable and fixed automation. In this automation, you can change the equipment and also program.

 It is widely used in industries that manufacture a wide variety of products.

Advantages

1. With the help of automation, we can get more work is done in less time.
2. It also increases its efficiency.
3. We have good product quality.
4. And most importantly, the safety of workers increases.

Disadvantage

1. The biggest disadvantage of automation is that unemployment rises. When machines work instead of workers. So people get jobless.
2. A large amount is required to set up the automation.
3. Automation maintenance has to be repeated.

Application

Automation is most commonly used in the manufacturing industries. Such as the automobile industry, pharmaceutical industry, electronic industry. Automation is also making many things easier in military defense. Such as automatically targeted missiles. Automation is also the most widely used form of information technology.

Scope

Automation has a lot of scope in the future. Because the use of robotics is slowly increasing. And robotics plays a key role in automation. Due to this, the demand for automation is likely to increase in the future. In this way, the only people who are successful in the future are those who are taking technology along.
