The document discusses the history and definition of business automation. It traces the origins of automation back to 1500 BC and notes that its purpose was to facilitate and speed up production in factories. The adoption of automation increased during the Industrial Revolution for repetitive processes and assembly lines. The concept of automation originated in Detroit in the 1940s when Ford Motor Co. adopted new methods to reduce human handling of workpieces using machines. The document defines automation as applying mechanical devices to handle workpieces between operations in a production process that can be partially or fully controlled by command boards. Sensors monitor and control movements to execute repetitive tasks.

3. Business automation
• Early indications of automation dates back to the 1500 BC,
in search of work endorse or transferred, human effects or
movements to other elements, devices, tools or any other
means for these so made.
• It is the purpose of business automation was to facilitate
and speed up the pace of production in factories, thus
becoming more efficient and effective.

4. • The implied enterprise automation less human effort, increased production
and reduced times of scrimmage. The birth of the Industrial Revolution, the
great acceptance by automation took place within the repetitive processes
and especially in assembly lines specifically targeted the Automotive Sector.
• Como concepción tuvo su origen en Detroit cuando la Ford Motor C. a fines
del 1946 Del S. Harder revisaba los Planes de la nuevas Fabricaciones y
adopta nuevos métodos y mecanismos para la reducción del manipuleo del
hombre con los de las máquinas y a esto le llamo "Automatización).

5. Definition.
• Initially we can say that the Ford Motor C. defined "as
the art of applying mechanical devices for handling
workpieces in and out of the equipment to handle
workpieces between two operations to remove junk,
and to perform these tasks in sync with production
equipment so that the production can be fully or
partially controlled by command control boards
located at strategic points in the factory. "

6. • Defining Automation takes several ramifications, but one of them is that
automation is primarily on generating from the design of any system able to
carry out repetitive tasks performed by man, and by synchronized actions,
verify and monitor different operations in his actions, all assisted
programmable or non-programmable system and not dependent on human
elements in them.

7. • One element of the automation is that the sensors are monitoring and
detection controls the various movements act where locators fixed to the
operating element for executing the repetitive tasks.

8. Evolution.
• The evolution of mechanics, electronics, and the emergence of Cybernetics
and Informatics (Chips and Computer) Communications with and
complementary to the sciences related to industry techniques.
