The manufacturing environment is defined by its ability to manufacture and/or assemble goods by machines, integrated assembly lines, and robotic arms. Automated environments are also defined by their coordination with (and usually their systematic integration with) the required automatic equipment to form a complete system.[3]
Factory automation intends to decrease risks associated with laborious and dangerous work faced by human workers.[4] This system is essentially a solution for the automation and manufacturing of a particular production process of an intended output and/or final/end product.[5]
