Why technology can change this work

  • autopilot gradually takes control in constrained, well-mapped environments
  • serial operations fit industrial robots
  • repeatable physical work can shift to robots in prepared environments
  • sensors and computer vision automate quality control
  • planning and maintenance are moving to predictive systems

What protects the occupation

  • operation in bad weather, road works and unpredictable human behavior
  • equipment setup and non-standard fault resolution
  • production safety accountability
  • variable materials and low-volume processes
