About the Book
We find ourselves at the confluence of automation, robotics, and humans on the manufacturing floor and now are trying to find the right combination of these three vital components to deliver three equally vital outcomes—safety, productivity, and quality.
Understanding your capabilities in each of these three technologies, and your expectations for each of the three outcomes, will determine your strategic approach. Adding automation or robotics in your plant only works if they fulfill a need or solve a problem.
Download this eBook, which examines safety, productivity, and quality from a number of perspectives.
