Benefits of Industrial Robots

Advan­tages of Robots

The first indus­tri­al robot was intro­duced to the U.S. in the 1960s. Since then, their tech­nol­o­gy has improved immense­ly cre­at­ing many advan­tages of robots. The advance­ment of robot­ics has also caused robots to become more wide­spread across var­i­ous indus­tries rang­ing from man­u­fac­tur­ing to health care. Robots have proven to be ben­e­fi­cial in enhanc­ing pro­duc­tiv­i­ty, pro­mot­ing safe­ty, and cost and time efficiency.

Robots and Productivity

• Robots pro­duce more accu­rate and high qual­i­ty work.
• Robots rarely make mis­takes and are more pre­cise than human workers.
• They can pro­duce a greater quan­ti­ty in a short amount of time.
• They can work at a con­stant speed with no breaks, days off, or hol­i­day time.
• They can per­form appli­ca­tions with more repeata­bil­i­ty than humans.

Robots for Safety

• Robots save work­ers from per­form­ing dan­ger­ous tasks.
• They can work in haz­ardous con­di­tions, such as poor light­ing, tox­ic chem­i­cals, or tight spaces.
• They are capa­ble of lift­ing heavy loads with­out injury or tiring.
• Robots increase work­er safe­ty by pre­vent­ing acci­dents since humans are not per­form­ing risky jobs.

Sav­ings

• Robots save time by being able to pro­duce a greater mag­ni­tude of products
• They also reduce the amount of wast­ed mate­r­i­al used due to their accuracy
• Robots save com­pa­nies mon­ey in the long run with quick ROIs (return on invest­ment), few­er work­er injuries (reduc­ing or elim­i­nat­ing worker’s comp), and with using less materials.

The list of the advan­tages of robots does not end there; they have also cre­at­ed jobs for work­ers. Many peo­ple believe the mis­con­cep­tion that robots have tak­en away jobs from work­ers, but that is not nec­es­sar­i­ly true. Robots have cre­at­ed new jobs for those who were once on pro­duc­tion lines with pro­gram­ming. They have pulled employ­ees from repet­i­tive, monot­o­nous jobs and put them in bet­ter, more chal­leng­ing ones. They also allow US com­pa­nies to remain com­pet­i­tive, keep­ing jobs local. Robots are user-friend­ly, intel­li­gent, and afford­able. The ben­e­fits of robots con­tin­ue to grow as more indus­tries incor­po­rate them.
