    History of Modern Manufacturing Importance of Manufacturing


    The history of manufacturing can be traced back  Helps in modernizing agriculture
    to the Industrial Revolution during the 19th century,  Provides employment opportunities to millions of

    2. Repetitive manufacturing
     Industries that produce the same items throughout
    the year use a redundant manufacturing method.
     This method allows the industries to adjust the
    production speed as per the customer demand
    because its setup needs minimal changes to
    adjust the speed.
    3. Job shop manufacturing
     Industries that produce small batches of
    customized products follow this manufacturing
    method.
    4. Process manufacturing
     This method produces products by adding
    ingredients using formulas and different recipes..
    5. Batch manufacturing
     This process includes both discrete manufacturing
    and process manufacturing.
