Business AOS 3

• An automated production line consists of machinery and equipment arranged in a sequence.

  • minimises waste
  • Reduced Human Labour, can allow for business to produce at a reduced costs, and increased productivity.
  • Robotics can be costly, being unaffordable for smaller businesses
  • Robotics can break down, halting the production process
  • It can also be expensive to repair and maintain
• Robotics are programmable machines that are capable of performing specific tasks.

  Efficiency

  • Robotics can perform specific tasks quickly and with high levels of accuracy.
  • This can reduce time and resources wasted in production, therefore resources are used optimally, increasing productivity

  Effectiveness

  • Robotics can perform tasks quickly with high levels of accuracy, which can minimise the number of errors that occur during production process.
  • Because of this it increases the overall quality of the product which increases sales.
• Computer Aided Design is a digital design software that aids the creation, modification, and optimisation of a design and the design process.
