Part 5/11:
While there are several methods to integrate automation into workflows, full automation consistently demonstrates significant benefits. Industries such as pharmaceutical manufacturing, with its strict quality control protocols, thrive on complete automation. Situations where human involvement has been minimized, like in lights-out manufacturing, show how companies achieve higher efficiency by removing human supervision.
Moreover, advancements in technologies like autonomous harvesters—for instance, those developed by John Deere—have reduced environmental impact and enhanced productivity. These examples highlight the critical advantages where full automation can lead to better outcomes compared to hybrid models.
