Robotic Painting Automation

Robotic automation has always been the key way to develop production and the industrial civilization. We use robotics in many fields of the industry, from the most complex procedures to the easiest. One simple step that takes place in the production of many products is the painting and coating stage. As simple as it might be, it is a stage that needs speed and accuracy and needs to be dealt with care since it controls the products aesthetics. The industrial painting robot does its job with high quality once programmed well, without causing any drips, oversprays, or inconsistincies in general. The machine allows faster production painting and coating with conservation of paint to up to 15-30%. With the benefit of saving workers that are more vulnerable to VOC’s and other hazardous materials in the paint, the painting robots are perfect for the industry

    Although there are advantages to this robotic, it also causes workers to lose their jobs and a decrease in the number of jobs available.

    I see how this is far more effective at painting the product and creating a far more aesthetically pleasing finish but what are the implications of replacing jobs that humans are capable of with robots? Is it ethically right for us to take jobs away from people who need the money and employment and give it to a machine simply to achieve a slightly better product?

    Well these robots do not have all the disadvantages that humans have, disadvantages such as resting, getting tired, sleeping, eating, etc.
    therefore increasing production greatly.
