What are the types of automation used in manufacturing?
Manufacturing automation includes fixed automation (dedicated equipment for high-volume production), programmable automation (equipment that can be reprogrammed for different products), flexible automation (systems that can switch between tasks with minimal downtime), and integrated automation (connected systems using IIoT, machine monitoring, and data analytics). Excellerant specializes in integrated automation solutions that connect CNC machines, track performance in real-time, and enable data-driven manufacturing decisions.
