Automatons are dolls that are made from solid materials, but which can move in predetermined patterns that are embedded in their Magic circuits.
Unlike Golems who possess only Cores, Automatons, while having different shapes and sizes, also have internal structures similar to humans. Their Mana Circuits work together with their Mana Core, granting them automated mobility.
This allows them to move in pre-recorded patterns, a feat that's impossible for Golems. The advantage of using Automatons was the efficiency of their use.
A Mage could employ the use of several automatons in battle or the completion of several tasks. However, for Golems, one would manually need to control them.
