Everything built is created through a manufacturing process. It's never just one step, but rather a series of activities and actions that result in a finished product. These steps are often intertwined in varying degrees of order and linearity, transcending multiple facilities and multiple suppliers.
Given all this complexity, a common question from anyone making decisions around the automation of a manufacturing process is "What should I focus on?" How one answers this question can make all the difference in whether a project is successful operationally and financially – or not.
In this webinar we will review the primary process steps in most automated manufacturing projects, the importance of these elements, how to approach and define each step, and then provide insight on maximizing outcomes from both operational and business perspectives. Real-world examples will be utilized throughout to provide context, along with tips to succeed and pitfalls to avoid.
Join us as we explore:
- Key parts of the automation process
- Process contingencies and dependencies
- What to (and what not to) automate
- Considerations for process optimization success
