Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Putting Robots to Work is a practical text aimed at engineers & management faced with the problem of maintaining a competitive edge in today's fluid industrial market. It acknowledges that flexible automation is an essential tool in this effort, but also that automation can be difficult to justify on cost, & requires considerable skills to implement. The book addresses these difficulties directly, helping engineers & managers to assess objectively the potential for automation within their company. It will also guide those faced with the responsibility for implementing automation within their manufacturing operations. The emphasis is on practical knowledge, & the book is aimed at those involved professionally in manufacturing, rather than at students learning about automation.
