Industrial Automation and Manufacturing Systems: Concepts and Applications

Abstract:

Manufacturing comprises an effective and efficient integration of automation tools and advanced technologies for the industrial production. Automation is an advanced technique used in the manufacturing industry for integrating the machine tools to automatically perform different tasks. This paper presents the study about industrial automation and manufacturing system. The research and development in the area of automation includes programmable logic control (PLC), robotics, distributed control system (DCS), computerized numerical control machine (CNC), radio frequency identification (RFID). The intelligent systems for scheduling and manufacturing the product such as flexible manufacturing systems (FMS), computer aided manufacturing (CAM), computer integrated manufacturing (CIM), lean manufacturing and green manufacturing.
