Abstract

The word “automation” conjures visions of purposeful robots, lights-out, people-free manufacturing, and autonomous machines conversing silently with each other in the digital dialect of Industry 4.0. While some of this may be occurring in a few corners of the printing industry, it doesn’t reveal much about the effects of automation on the day-to-day realities of packaging production.
