Why You Need Robotic Automation Now

One: Robotics and Automation Create More Opportunities Than Ever

Today’s robotic automation systems have the power to put North American manufacturers at the forefront of a new opportunity, and a greater ability to compete with offshore companies and to empower workers in new ways.

In fact, as more U.S. manufacturers are bringing work back home from overseas, robots play a key role in making this possible.

Two: Robots Support Our Changing Workforce

In the United States, the labor force has been shrinking in recent years as population growth slows. And since the exodus of much manufacturing to Asia, fewer Americans are training in manufacturing or attending trade schools.

These factors make it more challenging for manufacturers to adequately staff production lines with enough manpower, especially for repetitive, lower-skill tasks. Along with fewer workers comes more demand for engaging jobs.

Three: New Opportunities to be Competitive Globally

As robotic automation solutions become more versatile, accessible and commercialized, companies can leverage them in more ways than ever across production lines.

Acieta helps to give North American companies new ways to boost production at a lower cost and re-shore opportunities while creating new and better jobs that demand higher skills and create safer, healthier work environments.

Our automated robotics help your company be efficient, responsive, flexible and innovative — all key elements of staying competitive.

Robotics Can Work in Your Industry

Agriculture
Ag equipment OEMs use robots for the more repetitive manufacturing tasks, while producers employ robots to streamline inspection, research, and shipping.

Food Processing
Food companies are more efficient when they use robots to fill packaging and pallet cartons for shipping.

Health Care
Robots work in clean rooms to produce and package pharmaceuticals and medical products quickly and safely.

Manufacturing
Robots are becoming increasingly adept at executing complex tasks, intelligent movement and selection, dexterous movements and performing multiple actions.

Welding & Fab
To address labor shortages and short lead times, fabricators rely on robots for welding, machine tending, press brake operation and other dangerous and repetitive jobs.

Why Use Robots?

The benefits of robotic automation are numerous, and include:

Increased Productivity
Robots can carry out the most repetitive or dangerous tasks in a facility with complete precision and consistency, every time. In addition to freeing human workers to complete more engaging (and better-paying) tasks, robots can reduce scrap and waste through improved accuracy, increase efficiency, and operate around the clock. All these benefits add up to much higher productivity in manufacturing operations.

Increased Accuracy
Once programmed, robots can repeat the same task or process over and over again without deviation. This means fewer rejected parts.

Lower Costs
With increased productivity, efficiency and accuracy come cost benefits as well, as robots help facilitate more work being completed in less time.

What Is the Importance of Robots?

Robots can play an important part in the future of nearly every industry:

  • In manufacturing, robots are enabling companies to save costs and bring back processes that were previously outsourced.
  • Robots help address the skills gap by fulfilling the dirty and dangerous tasks that make some positions difficult to keep filled.
  • Robots are changing the face of manufacturing by doing the mundane, repetitive and dangerous jobs. This creates the need for more interesting, challenging and higher-paying positions. By creating a more engaging, safer workplace, robots aid in employee retention, and can reduce staffing costs for recruiting, hiring and training.
