THE BENEFITS OF AUTOMATION 

THE BENEFITS OF AUTOMATION

Source: Krones AG

Automate and stay on top

Product quality is imperative

Better working conditions

Arriving in the society of the future

How can companies benefit from automation? Modern production is automated. This is the only way for manufacturing companies to remain competitive, to prevent an exodus of key technologies, to generate qualified jobs, and to capture new markets. Low unit costs and high productivity are not reached in costly manual production set-ups, but in highly efficient, fully or partly automated plants. They often operate in three shifts – around the clock, twenty-four-seven. Furthermore, in case of a product change, wellengineered and efficient automation solutions can be quickly re-programmed and easily re-used.

How does automation impact product quality? Whether individual solutions or standard products, automation guarantees consistently high quality with 100 % accuracy, infallible quality checks and permanent traceability. Without a high level of automation, a wide range of complex products we use in our daily life would not be possible – or would be simply unaffordable. Can you imagine buying a completely hand-made smart phone? Probably not.

How can employees benefit from automation? The social reformers criticized the monotony of work, its dangers, the heavy labor, and the severe consequences it often had for the workers’ health. Nowadays, a perfect human-machine interaction results in a more advanced and safe workplace. Monotonous, physically demanding tasks are accomplished by highly specialized machinery with robots that know neither arthritis nor muscle pain. Thus, the image of the exploited worker remains where it belongs: in bygone centuries.

How can people benefit from automation? The world’s population is growing rapidly – therefore, it is necessary to use resources efficiently. An intelligently automated production can make a decisive contribution to minimizing our consumption of energy and natural resources. This is one of the major goals of the suppliers of robotics and automation. At the same time, people will actually buy eco-friendly products because automated production makes them affordable.

ROBOTICS + AUTOMATION

We are your VDMA Robotics + Automation Association

Integrated Assembly Solutions – much more than the sum of its parts

The Robotics + Automation Association is best suited to serve your interests and take care of your needs. We are passionate about the three innovative fields in which our approximately 265 member companies are active:

Out of millions of components, Integrated Assembly Solutions (IAS) creates new products every day. Combining, assembling, handling, joining, forming, measuring, testing, dosing, and labelling – this sector’s enterprises design and build the hardware and components needed for these tasks.

• Robotics • Integrated Assembly Solutions (IAS) • Machine Vision For each of these key technologies, the VDMA has created a specialized group – and consolidated them in the Robotics + Automation Association in order to generate useful synergies.

Robotics – innovative driving force for industry and society Do you remember your first toy robot? It was quite shaky and could barely make a noise, and yet it epitomized a better future. It was so fascinating. A lot has happened since then and our notion of a robot has dramatically changed. Today’s robotics industry features a high degree of innovation, a strong market growth and rapid technological developments.

The intelligence of both people and machines is indispensable in this context – in order to come to smart, thought-through and therefore outstanding solutions.

Machine Vision – when machines see and comprehend Cameras generate images that are automatically analyzed by software. Machine vision systems perform quality tests, guide machines, control processes, identify components, read codes and deliver valuable data for optimizing production. Machine Vision is constantly capturing new fields of application – also beyond the arena of manufacturing – always striving for higher quality, efficiency and product safety.

Industrial robots have become an indispensable tool in manufacturing. As a core element of automation, they take center stage in strategic business decision-making. One thing, however, has remained the same: robots are still incredibly fascinating.

This is the world of Robotics and Automation.

No future without new blood: we believe that qualified, motivated and creative employees are more precious than rare earths. This is why we do everything to get young talents enthusiastic about the opportunities enterprises have to offer in the field of robotics and automation – via new media, in schools and on trade fairs, with exciting videos, students’ days, and the VDMA Talentmaschine – our new online portal for students and aspiring young professionals.

We are active wherever great opportunities for the automation sector arise: VDMA Robotics + Automation organizes symposia in Shanghai, Mumbai and Istanbul. There, our members can present their business, their skills and services to potential customers.

Our market analyses and indexes reliably display current industry trends. Thanks to the participation of our members, our statistical surveys result in exceptional data quality – a sound basis for your strategic decisions. Standardization brings enormous advantages in the market place. Uniformly applying rules allow for sales increases and safety – worldwide. We make sure that standards development is industry-driven. Joining forces – we bring stakeholders together: sector group meetings, members’ assemblies and interdisciplinary industry meetings fuel your business success. As the conceptual sponsor of AUTOMATICA in Munich and VISION in Stuttgart, we shape the world´s two leading trade fairs for our sector. As the industry’s voice, we make use of all communication channels – from the trade press to social media, from articles to videos and films.

What technological and social trends are on the horizon? What new fields of application offer potentials for growth? How are customer needs changing? Our future studies will provide you with the answers to these questions.

For companies that have already gained a foothold in foreign markets, we offer management meetings for the exchange of experiences regarding issues such as regional marketing, communication with the head office, and the local market situation. Furthermore, we evaluate trade fairs abroad, organize joint booths and get you in touch with local contact persons.

Some technologies are gaining importance in several fields – e.g. in automotive engineering, in the building industry, in aviation, and in wind power plant construction. An excellent example is composites. In our interdisciplinary forums, such as the Composite Technology Forum, our members come together and make high volume production of new products a reality. We also cultivate our contacts to the scientific community. By doing so, we can identify research topics that are essential – always from the industry’s point of view – or connect science and industry in targeted matchmaking events.
