Robotics is a field of technology which has seen huge technological advancements, which have had many impacts on manufacturing. Robots are able to perform tasks repetitively and tirelessly, and with precision, high efficiency, and very little error. Many of the examples already discussed are bolstered by the use of robotics. For example, the data analytics and technology insights essential to the smart factory can be bolstered by robotics, and numerical control can be carried out efficiently by a piece of robotic technology. One of the main changes this means for the world of manufacturing technology is a shift in jobs. Rather than being about production and manufacture, now people specialised in robotics to oversee the machinery doing the manufacturing are sought after by this industry.
