Machine automation is the use of control systems and information technologies to reduce the need for human work in the production of goods and services. In the scope of industrialization, industrial automation is a step beyond mechanization. Whereas mechanization provided human operators with machinery to assist them with the muscular requirements of work, industrial automation greatly decreases the need for human sensory and mental requirements as well. Machine automation plays an increasingly important role in the world economy and in daily experience.

Machine automation has had a notable impact in a wide range of industries beyond manufacturing (where it began). Once-ubiquitous telephone operators have been replaced largely by automated telephone switchboards and answering machines. Medical processes such as primary screening in electrocardiography or radiography and laboratory analysis of human genes, sera, cells, and tissues are carried out at much greater speed and accuracy by automated systems. Automated teller machines have reduced the need for bank visits to obtain cash and carry out transactions. In general, automation has been responsible for the shift in the world economy from industrial jobs to service jobs in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Advantages and disadvantages== The main advantages of machine automation are:
Replacing human operators in tasks that involve hard physical or monotonous work
Replacing humans in tasks done in dangerous environments (i.e. fire, space, volcanoes, nuclear facilities, underwater, etc.)
Performing tasks that are beyond human capabilities of size, weight, speed, endurance, etc.
Economy improvement: Industrial automation may improve in economy of enterprises, society or most of humanity. For example, when an enterprise invests in machine automation, technology recovers its investment; or when a state or country increases its income due to industrial automation like Germany or Japan in the 20th Century. Reduces operation time and work handling time significantly.
