SCIENTIFIC APPROACH TO SUCCESSFUL AUTOMATION
2024
Overview
Stoller discusses scientific approach to successful automation. Robotics came of age as a mass-production technology, excelling in environments in which high volumes can be produced in static environments. More recently, manufacturing processes have become increasingly dynamic as manufacturers adjust to high-mix low-volume markets. Consequently, manufacturers are increasingly looking at automation solutions that involve people and robots working together. The matter is complicated by what's become a perennial labor shortage. The new way of evaluating automation from a business perspective has been articulated in a concept called Positive Sum Automation. Instead of automation being about employee reduction, it's now more about using automation to make workers, the scarcest resource, more productive. Technology is not a magic bullet that will solve productivity problems by itself, nor can it be effective at automating defective processes. But in the hands of engaged teams that understand workplace processes and take pride in optimizing them, technology will be a powerful enabler for the future.
