It's difficult, even impossible, to imagine modern industrial production without it, but it was once no more than a wishful dream. So, where exactly does the term "Automation" come from? The ancient Greeks revered "Automatia" as the goddess of chance . In his "Politeia" (politics), Aristotle expressed the hope that one day machines would work on their own so masters would no longer need slaves.
The linguistic origins of the term automation therefore lie in the Greek , with the term generally referring to independent (autonomous) activity .
In English, the term automation describes both a process and technology . The systems that operate themselves – i.e. run automatically – in factories are automation, but so too is the whole process of creating – i.e. automating – these systems, and that is what MAXOLUTION® automation is all about.
