Among the opportunities for production process automation stands out the automation of test and measurement systems. By adopting this practice, manual work is eliminated avoiding errors and diminishing human fatigue caused by repetitive tasks.

Advantages:

• Decreased operator costs, allowing for a reduction in their number or qualifications.
• Agility in delivering service
• Improved repeatability of results, ensuring agreement between the outcomes of successive measurements of a single item conducted under the same measurement conditions.
• Reduction of uncertainty
• Use of Intelligent Networks to interconnect equipment
• Ensured traceability
• Digital record of results
