The All-Or-Nothing Trap

Automation - Calculation - Implementation - Realization

What is an All-Or-Nothing Trap, and is your organization caught in one?

Eli Whitney, 1846

Success is rarely defined by an all-or-nothing proposition. More often than not, it is built through a series of incremental steps toward improvement.

Eli Whitney did not invent “automation,” but he did come up with the concept of interchangeable parts, essentially making sure that each part of the whole “automatically” fit properly when it came time to assemble the product.

Ford Assembly Line, 1923

Henry Ford didn’t have the technology to fully automate manufacturing, but he did automate the product moving from station to station in the manufacturing process, effectively establishing the assembly line.

And while developments in mechanics, computing, and robotics have expanded the application of automation in manufacturing, practical limitations remain. Mundane yet unavoidable barriers like deadlines and budget constraints exist. Real-world considerations are what real-world manufacturers must contend with when considering manufacturing automation, quality improvement, and ROI.

While full automation is a wonderful goal, affordable, measurable, and incremental improvements are often the only option available when confronted with the realities of manufacturing.

Here's the point: you don’t have to automate everything to realize significant benefits from automation. This is where Puritan Automation comes in. We work with you to create solutions that respect your manufacturing reality. That fit your needs, specifications, and budget, while providing real-world benefits.
