Some indirect effects of the use of industrial robots have not attracted attention. The Science Management Corporation performed analyses of the changes in electricity usage at Chrysler's St Louis assembly plant No. 1, and at the Franklin Manufacturing Company, of St Cloud Minnesota. At Chrysler, the robot system has significantly increased the plant's electricity usage. But upscales of the load factor will translate into large savings from enhancement of power plant operating efficiencies. The effect of the robot system at Franklin manufacturing was slight, with a few specified qualifications.
