Determining the Level of Logistics Automation Applicable in a Manufacturing Systems
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2016, Vol 17, Issue 47
Abstract
This paper analyzes the economic conditions necessary for logistics automation of manufacturing systems to make effective and consistent with the company's financial strength. Based on the total purchase and operating costs of the logistics system, first thing to do is to determine the prerequisite that need to be fulfilled so automation would lead to lower costs than manual operation. To do this, define the degree of automation of the logistics system and write the formula between this and the total costs. By properly ordering the terms in this relationship, it will establish the necessary condition for introducing automation. If this condition is met, the level of automation will be directly correlated with the level of investment available for this.
