Soaring demand is attributed to an increased use of both robots and human workers in the aerospace industry . Automation is a crucial part of a business where " higher levels of consistency " are perceived as desirable , and robots are being forced to undertake " tedious repetitive tasks that can cause injuries . " Firms such as Airbus and aerospace have implemented " cobots " in their factories , robots that work alongside human workers , and rather than leading to technological unemployment , automation is creating new jobs in the industry centered around robot maintenance , according to Wolfgang Meisen from Kuka Robotics .
Soaring demand is leading to an increased use of both robots and human workers in the aerospace industry. Automation is a crucial part of a business where "higher levels of consistency" are required as standard, and robots are being employed to undertake "tedious repetitive tasks that can cause injuries." Firms such as Airbus and Boeing have implemented "cobots" in their factories, robots that work alongside human workers, and rather than leading to technological unemployment, automation is creating new jobs in the sector centered around robot maintenance, according to Wolfgang Meisen from Kuka Robotics.
