1. INTRODUCTION
Today, the modern industrial revolution is on its way towards advancements. The industrial revolution
is taking over the entire world briey. One of the major goals of today’s industrial revolution is to
adopt automation. Almost in every sector such as military, agriculture, automobile, manufacturing
and design and development etc. Presently, automation is widely being implemented and used in the
industrial sector all over the world, this is done in order to increase the eciency and productivity of
the manufactured goods. The automobile sector is also using automation to perform various task in the
cars body manufacturing, assembly and paint shops in order to increase their per day productivity and
eciency of the cars. But however, the industrial automation is not implemented and used in Pakistan
at its maximum pace. Thus, a lot of task are done manually, this aects the eciency and productivity
of the produced parts. In Pakistan, especially in the automobile sector, painting procedures are not
fully carried out by robots, instead paid labors (humans) are also employed in painting small parts such
as mirror covers, mud aps, door handles, spoiler and fog lamps etc. And also, automatic painting is
adopted only by factories and industries which produce large lot sizes of same type/variant of parts
(Saeed et al., 2019).
Thus this paper discusses about the possible feasible solution which will help shift the small scale industries
and the automobile industries to implement modern industrial automation by placing robots in their
production line in order to increase their productivity and eciency of produced goods.
Currently, Pakistan is not able to completely not able to adopt the industrial revolution along with the
modern automation as because the initial capital cost is way too much for which small industries can’t
invest in it. The other major reason is that most of the robots can paint only one part variant at a time,
thus industries not producing large lot sizes of same part variant are unable to get automatic painting
being carried out in their industry. Another problem caused by this is the human health issues, as painting
process contains release of harmful chemical fumes which ultimately aects human health. Also human
painted parts are sometimes not up to the mark as the paint coating are uneven, thus the parts are not
