Lean Robotic Automation: A Practical Framework for Modern Manufacturing
£25.00
Manufacturers today face intense pressure: labour shortages, rising costs, quality expectations, and fluctuating customer demand. Robotics offers a solution — but only when deployed with the right methodology.
Lean Robotic Automation provides manufacturers with a clear, proven, repeatable framework for introducing and scaling robotics successfully. It removes guesswork and explains automation in business language, not engineering jargon.
Clients learn:
- How to identify good automation candidates Using practical screening tools and real-world suitability criteria.
- How to design automation that works Through detailed manual process mapping, robotic task mapping, and the Minimum Viable Robotic Cell (MVRC) approach, which eliminates risk early.
- How to integrate robotics efficiently With standardised programming, safety validation, vision strategy, and exception handling templates.
- How to run and improve robotic cells Using KPI dashboards, uptime strategies, maintenance playbooks, and predictive monitoring.
- How to scale automation across multiple factories.
With governance structures, standard libraries, documentation, and workforce capability development. The book shows why automation succeeds — and why some deployments fail. It covers current 2025 technologies: AI-driven vision, mobile robots, digital twins, low-code programming, dynamic safety, and cybersecurity compliance.
This is not a book about robots.
It is a book about creating an automation-ready organisation. A perfect asset for manufacturers exploring automation for the first time — and for those wanting to scale intelligently, safely, and profitably.
