Under the present regime of globalization and liberalization, quality enhancement and cost reduction are two major steps to enhance productivity when many factors (boom in manufacturing, world wide interest in India's potential , risk, lack of funds with long gestation period) make heavy investment not possible. One of the very practical, safe, economical and rewarding strategies is the application of Low Cost Hi-Tech Automation.

WHAT IS LOW COST HI-TECH AUTOMATION ?

Low Cost Hi-Tech Automation is a technology that creates some degree of automation around the existing equipment, tools, methods and people, using mostly standard components available in the market and using Mechatronics extensively.

--:: PAYOFFS ::--
Investment required is low , hence risk involved is low.
Automation is tailored around the existing machines with the people involved; hence the changes are gradual, smooth and very cost effective.
Technologies used are easy and simple to understand, maintain and upgrade ; losses will be minimal in case of breakdowns.
The hardware components are flexible and reusable and very adaptable to changes in product , market conditions etc.,
Labour resistance will be minimal since fatigue and drudgery of work get eliminated and they can be made to feel involved in the developments.
Microelectronics provides a lot of scope for sophisticated automation at low cost.
 
--:: SCOPE ::--
The course is aimed at developing the right perspective and understanding of this attractive aid to competitiveness. Apart from clarifying the basics case studies will be used from different types of industries to highlight the applications potential.
