Details: It's a world of manufactured goods. Whether we like it or not, we all live in a technological society. Every day we come in con- tact with hundreds of manufactured items, made from every possible material. From the bedroom to the kitchen to the workplace, we use appliances, phones, cars, trains, and planes, TVs, cell phones, VCRS, DVDs, furniture, clothing, sports equip- ment, books and more. These goods are manufactured in fac- tories all over the world using manufacturing processes.
Basically, manufacturing is a value-adding activity, where the conversion of materials into products adds value to the original material. Thus, the objective of a company engaged in manufacturing is to add value and to do so in the most efficient manner, with the least amount of waste in terms of time, mate- rial, money, space, and labor. To minimize waste and increase productivity, the processes and operations need to be properly selected and arranged to permit smooth and controlled flow of material through the factory and provide for product variety. Meeting these goals requires an engineer who can design and operate an efficient manufacturing system. Here are some trends that are having impacts on the manufacturing world.
Manufacturing is a global activity
Manufacturing is a global activity with work often being per- formed at locations based on proximity to materials, labor, or marketplace. US firms often have plants in other countries, and foreign companies operate plants in the United States. Final product assembly often involves components made at a variety of locations.
