Automation requirement matching through TMC
Abstract
Looks at problems experienced by manufacturers in matching their level of automation to local conditions. Particularly concentrates on the automotive manufacturing sector. Gives examples of different levels of automation. Presents a process developed by the author’s company (Assembly Technology and Test Ltd) called total manufacturing cell (TMC). It recognises that the manufacturing process is a key element in the success or failure of a product and sees development of the manufacturing solution as only one phase in the life of a product.
