Robotic Friends Are Here!

We are in the midst of a revolution that is no less remarkable than in one of our history books. Never before has the operation technology been so connected with the management of information (information technology). While the departure from hand production methods to machines, the advent of chemical manufacturing and the utilisation of water and steam power were indeed a ‘revolution’, the Fourth Industrial Revolution is fundamentally different. It is characterised by a range of new technologies that are fusing the physical, digital and biological worlds, impacting all disciplines, economies and industries.

In the past 20 years, technology has changed the nature of manufacturing. In the old days, production and fabrication were all done manually. Now that computers and technology have penetrated the industry, automation has become the competitive advantage in today’s manufacturing world. Automation has allowed companies to mass produce at an outstanding speed and with great repeatability with efficient quality. Automation has become a determining factor in whether or not a company will remain competitive within the manufacturing industry. The Indian Automation Industry is growing at an annual rate of 20 to 25 per cent as per Automation Industry Association of India (AIA).

For many years the automotive industry has been well known for its intensive use of industrial robotics. Since the implantation of the first industrial robots in the 1960s, a lot of things have changed. These days, the production lines need to be more efficient, flexible and precise. Many enhancements have been made on production lines over the last few years to help workers in their daily tasks. All the entrepreneurs are clearly optimistic about the use of Robotics in various industrial segments and its future in India.
