What is an automatic line?
Automatic production line is also known as automatic production line. This is a collection of fully automated machines that perform one or more operations in a pre-established sequence and are controlled by humans.
In simpler words, each workstation will have a specific task in production. There, the material will be processed according to established steps and moved along the production line and finished after the final stitch. An automatic production line will have no human involvement at each stage. Instead, all production activities on automatic lines will be strictly controlled by humans.
In the automation environment, workers are not directly involved in production, but tend to switch to monitoring, adjusting and managing each stage. This helps to optimize costs and improve efficiency.
In order to improve production quality and increase finished products, automatic production line systems will need conveyor systems. Sukavina.com.vn is proud to be a supplier of high quality and prestigious conveyor systems. If you want to design your own conveyor belt, please contact Sukavina.com.vn for details at the end of this article.
Features of automatic line:
- The automatic line is designed to be compact, saving space to fit workshops with small and medium spaces. The tripod has a moderate height so that workers can easily and conveniently operate it.
- The material to create the automatic line is mainly 304 stainless steel. This is stainless steel, so it is not corroded, has high durability, is easy to clean and maintain. In addition, this material is easy to clean, can minimize bacterial infection, ensure food hygiene and safety.
- The automation line is not only vertical, but also designed in a horizontal, circular shape.. combined with a stirrer to make the materials more uniform when filling.
- The automatic line also uses a PLC controller to fill different liquids and liquids, for higher productivity.
Automation lines are being applied in many fields. The most prominent ones are mechanical processing, assembly of spare parts, packaging of goods, food, printing and packaging… The operation of the production line can be through the control of a human. human or pre-set via Gcode, electronic circuit. It is necessary to ensure control parameters as well as control risks.
Classification of automatic production lines
The automation system is currently divided into 3 basic types: fixed automation, flexible automation and programmable automation. Each type of automation line will have certain characteristics.
Fixed automation
This is an automation system where the processing/assembly sequence is fixed by the automatic device configuration. The operation of this type of chain is quite simple, but when combining many activities, the system becomes complicated.
Characteristic:
- High initial investment cost
- High production rate and productivity
- Less flexible when needing to change products
The stationary automation system is only suitable for the model of mass production of a single product in large quantities.
Programming automation
Is a form of automatic production where automatic equipment for production is capable of changing the sequence flexibly. As a result, it is possible to accommodate a variety of different product configurations.
The sequence of operations of a programmable automation production line is controlled by a program. This is a set of coded instructions for the system to read, analyze, and execute. Suppliers will program machines according to the needs and requirements of each business.
Characteristic:
- High level of investment
- Production efficiency is lower than fixed automation system
- Easy to deal with product configuration changes
Flexible automation
This is an extension of the programming automation system. The system is also capable of producing a wide variety of parts/products without spending a lot of time reprogramming the system and changing physical settings. The system can generate combined production plans instead of requiring separate batch production.
Characteristic:
- High level of investment
- Can produce a variety of products continuously without interruption
- Mid-range production performance
Depending on the characteristics of the fields and industries, businesses will choose the most suitable type of automation.
The role of automatic lines in production
Automation lines are widely applied in factories and workshops. This is considered the development of the industrialization era. The introduction of production lines has overcome many limitations of traditional production methods, thereby liberating labor force, bringing high productivity and economic efficiency.
The role of automated production lines cannot be denied. That is:
- Improve productivity: The automation system helps to minimize the cycle of each stage. When replaced by machines, it will make the job faster and easier.
- Freeing labor, labor costs: Human labor is significantly liberated thanks to the participation of machines. In particular, jobs with high risks and health effects will become safer when there are replacement machines.
- Businesses will also cut costs for hiring and training workers, minimizing interruptions due to labor shortages…
- Optimize operating time: Machines in the automation system are designed and programmed to have high accuracy. As a result, production activities will have less trouble, products are created quickly, optimizing time and costs.
- Improve product quality: Products made by automatic lines will have high homogeneity, less errors. This is considered a great benefit in the production of mechanical and machine components.
- Improve competitiveness: Because of reducing many costs for businesses, the automation line also reduces product costs. This leads to lower prices in the market, improving competitiveness with other competitors.
Application of automation lines in production
With many great benefits, automated production lines are being widely applied in production today. Here are some common applications of line automation:
- Automatic assembly line for the production of electronic equipment/components
- Metal processing, welding paint
- Automatic filling lines in the production of beverages, food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics
- Product automatic packaging line
