Manufacturing Automation Feasibility Run-off and ramp-up checklist
What evidence should be agreed before acceptance testing for manufacturing automation feasibility?
In brief
For Manufacturing Automation Feasibility, define the operating conditions for run-off criteria and production evidence: the normal state, credible extremes, how the relevant values or conditions are measured, and which decision or outcome they affect.
For assessing whether a production process is suitable for automation, describe the realistic range and how changes in run-off criteria and production evidence affect the result you need.
On the production floor
Turn your production information into clearer decisions — Manufacturing Automation Feasibility
Plan manufacturing automation feasibility around your parts, process, cycle time, tooling, recovery and acceptance criteria. Discuss the highest-risk feasibility questions with Oxford Industrial Automation. Use this guide to resolve run-off criteria and production evidence before it limits the final system.
Run-Off Criteria and Production Evidence: condition, range and effect on your process
Current condition
Describe how you observe or measure run-off criteria and production evidence in your operation, including sample condition and any measuring limits. For a project focused on manufacturing automation feasibility, also record the production state in which each observation was made.
Realistic range
For Manufacturing Automation Feasibility, include normal production conditions, credible extremes, product or part variants and changes over time.
Effect on the system
Show which settings, safeguards, maintenance tasks, decisions or required outcomes are affected by changes in run-off criteria and production evidence.
Before you contact us
Five questions about run-off criteria and production evidence for your application
Who can confirm this information?Identify the person responsible for run-off criteria and production evidence in production, quality, engineering or operations.
How representative is the sample?Include age, supplier, batch, environment and upstream process state where they affect manufacturing automation feasibility.
What is the difficult condition?Include the slow, reflective, flexible, dirty, damaged, marginal or uncommon case that your system must still handle.
How will you judge the result?Agree the method, repetitions, acceptable range, result record and the response if the observed result falls outside the agreed range.
What else must be coordinated?Your final manufacturing automation feasibility scope must also account for operator access, recovery and changeover, run-off criteria and production evidence, current regulations and the conditions at your site.

Question 1
Part, Product and Process Variation for Manufacturing Automation Feasibility
For Manufacturing Automation Feasibility Run-off and ramp-up checklist, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for part, product and process variation for manufacturing automation feasibility. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.
Question 2
Arrival Pattern and Presentation
For Manufacturing Automation Feasibility Run-off and ramp-up checklist, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for arrival pattern and presentation. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.
Question 3
Required Cycle and Production Pattern
For Manufacturing Automation Feasibility Run-off and ramp-up checklist, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for required cycle and production pattern. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.
Question 4
Tooling, Sensing and Process Interfaces
For Manufacturing Automation Feasibility Run-off and ramp-up checklist, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for tooling, sensing and process interfaces. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.
Question 5
Operator Access, Recovery and Changeover
For Manufacturing Automation Feasibility Run-off and ramp-up checklist, describe the current position, required outcome, acceptable limits and known exceptions for operator access, recovery and changeover. That lets us compare options against your real production rather than one nominal value.
Question 6
