When did it begin?
• Approximately 200 years ago, most things were produced by hand.– Meant limited quantities.– Goods were expensive.– Each item was unique even in its flaws.

The Industrial Revolution
• “1st stage of automation.”
• 19th century (1800’s)– Machines were starting to be used.
• Mass production.• Goods cheaper.• Easier to obtain goods.• Goods produced quicker.• Fewer workers needed to produce same amount of
products.

1960’s
• “2nd stage of automation”.
• Advent of the computer.– Programmable machines which required very
little human intervention.

1980’s
• “3rd stage of automation.”
• Creation of powerful software.– Allows us to focus on the task they should
perform instead of actually doing it.

Key Terms
• Automation – The process of operating machines with minimal
human control.
• Robotics– The specialized field of engineering and computer
science that deals with the design and application of robots.
• End effector– Special end on a robotic arm. (Welder, grasper)

• Limitation– Factor which decreases or limits production. (What holds us
back.)• Manipulator
– Something that changes.• Programmer
– Write a set of instructions for a machine.• Range of motion
– How far a piece of equipment can move.• Reprogram
– Rewrite the program (program again).• Robot
– Machine that performs a specific function.• Tedious
– Boring, time consuming task.• Troubleshoot
– Finding the problem and fixing it.
