Automation describes a wide range of technologies that reduce human intervention in processes. Human intervention is reduced by predetermining decision criteria, subprocess relationships, and related actions and embodying those predeterminations in machines.

EAS is a group of highly experienced professionals working in oil and gas industry whose goal is to be the best provider of Control and Automation based services from conception to Engineering, Design and detailing, installing , commissioning and hand over to customer. We achieve this goal by specializing exclusively in the project management of EAS plans.
Specialization means providing quality services to industries, professionals who are working in Industrial automation, students. In our pursuit of absolute quality, we will maintain a quantitative means of measuring our progress towards this objective.

Industrial automation is the use of  Control Systems, such as computers or robots, and information technologies for handling different processes and machineries in an industry to replace a human being. It is the second step beyond mechanization in the scope of industrialization.

Increase Quality and Flexibility in Process

Earlier the purpose of automation was to increase productivity (since automated systems can work 24 hours a day) and to reduce the cost associated with human operators (i.e. wages & benefits). However, today, the focus of Automation has shifted to increasing quality and flexibility in the manufacturing process.

Advantages of Industrial Automation

Lower operating cost: Industrial automation eliminates healthcare costs and paid leave and holidays associated with a human operator. Further, Industrial automation does not require other employee benefits such as bonuses, pension coverage, etc. Above all, although it is associated with a high initial cost it saves the monthly wages of the workers which leads to substantial cost savings for the company. The maintenance cost associated with machinery used for Industrial automation is less because it does not often fail. If it fails, only computer and maintenance engineers are required to repair it.

High Productivity

Although many companies hire hundreds of production workers for up to three shifts to run the plant for the maximum number of hours, the plant still needs to be closed for maintenance and holidays.Industrial automation fulfills the aim of the company by allowing the company to run a manufacturing plant for 24 hours a day 7 days a week and 365 days a year. This leads to a significant improvement in the productivity of the company.

High Quality

Automation alleviates the error associated with a human being. Further, unlike human beings, robots do not involve any fatigue, which results in products with uniform quality manufactured at different times.

High Flexibility

Adding a new task in the assembly line requires training with a human operator, however, robots can be programmed to do any task. This makes the manufacturing process more flexible.

High Information Accuracy

Adding automated data collection can allow you to collect key production information, improve data accuracy, and reduce your data collection costs.  This provides you with the facts to make the right decisions when it comes to reducing waste and improving your processes.

High Safety

Industrial automation can make the production line safe for employees by deploying robots to handle hazardous conditions.

Disadvantages of Industrial Automation

High Initial Cost

The initial investment associated with making the switch from a human production line to an automatic production line is very high. Also, substantial costs are involved in training employees to handle this new sophisticated equipment.

Conclusion

Industrial automation has recently found more and more acceptance from various industries because of its huge benefits, such as, increased productivity, quality and safety at low costs.
