With the advancement of technology and the rise of labor costs, non-standard automation is increasingly emerging. The so-called non-standard automation refers to automated equipment designed for specific processes (such as welding, mold changing, assembly, inspection, etc.), which can completely or partially replace manual labor to complete specific tasks. It has specificity, non-standard characteristics, diverse design schemes, and no fixed routines and modes.
 

　　Based on the current domestic and international development status of automation, the development trend of non-standard automation is gradually becoming clear. Overall, non-standard automation is developing in three directions: high integration, flexibility, and intelligence.

1、High integration

　　The high integration here refers to the collection of multiple processes, changing the traditional non-standard automation equipment that is often a specialized machine for a single process.

The advantages of high integration design are:

（1） Reduce manual logistics turnover, improve product positioning accuracy, and enhance production continuity.

（2） Improve automation rate, reduce manual intervention, improve product quality, and increase operational efficiency.

（3）Reduce land area, save costs, and streamline production management.

2、Flexibility

　　With the progress of the times, there will be more and more personalized orders from users. The development trend is towards small batch and multi specification manufacturing operations, and non-standard automation equipment will bring positive effects to flexibility. For example, the introduction of a rapid mold changing system greatly improves the efficiency of mold replacement, shortens the time for mold changing on the production line, and calmly meets the needs of flexible production.

3、Intelligentization

　　Intelligence is an inevitable trend in the development of industrial automation. The deep integration of industrialization and informatization has led to the formation of intelligent manufacturing. Intelligent manufacturing leads to higher production efficiency, higher levels of factory automation, and improved product quality. Highly intelligent manufacturing factories will become black light factories.

　　Manufacturers who grasp the three development directions of non-standard automation mentioned above, plan ahead and self transform, will have an advantage in the future.
