HOPE IT WOULD BE HELPFULL..
Advantages of Machines
Repeatable tasks can be given and sustained. This is where machines excel as menial tasks can be given or programmed.
No fear of complaints or talk backs. Machines cannot complain or organize themselves thereby reducing labor costs.
Machines are not governed by labor laws and hence do not have to comply with laws about rest days or overtime.
Newer machines can be upgraded or programmed, which helps future-proof them in the medium term.
Productivity can be measured more effectively as machines can also log their production and hours.
Machines require less supervision even after adding more of them to a line. With humans, there is a fixed ratio of supervisors to employees.
Machines can be sold later and lessens the cost of purchase. These costs can be used to offset the cost of initial purchase making machines a more cost-effective alternative to human labor.
Machines are always motivated. As machines are more productive, there is less if a need for incentives or other motivational costs.
Machines are easily transferable and just need the exact same space as they had before…no need to house them or pay relocation costs
Machines can be easily retired or replaced without the need for any painful negotiation or buyouts.
Disadvantages of Machines
Machines can be expensive to purchase and run.
While they need less supervision than humans, they require highly skilled and well-trained technicians to run
Machines can wear out if not properly maintained
Factory type machines are very specific in their configuration and can be very hard to reconfigure. Machine-made products can be very artificial to the touch and can lack that “premium” feel.
All machines require an energy source, such as electricity or hydraulic power. Without an energy source none of the machine’s mechanical parts would move.
Machines can be inflexible. Machines can only accept raw input if those meet certain tolerance levels, the machine would instantly shut down if those levels are not met. A human would mostly figure out how to make the input work or adjust to the raw materials’ properties to continue working.
Machines cannot think of ways to be more efficient, these are all up to the humans who manage them. However, using machines forces humans to work at a certain way which “locks” them in a certain process.
While machines can be moved to another location, they have to be broken down, reconfigured, and placed in a proper orientation in order to work again in the new location. A human worker can simply walk over to the new area and start working immediately.
Machines produce pollution whether its emissions or noise. This inevitably results in being regulated by local governments and increases compliance costs.
Machines show up as depreciation costs, which can artificially reduce costs and not give the complete profitability and cash picture of a company.
