Hystory of Manufacturing

This document summarizes the history of manufacturing from 8000 BC to the present. It describes advances in metallurgy and metalworking from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. The Industrial Revolutions of the 18th-19th centuries brought new technologies like the steam engine and machine tools. The Second Industrial Revolution saw mass production and assembly lines. Modern manufacturing employs strategies like automation, lean production, and computer integrated systems to improve efficiency. Production systems involve facilities, equipment, people and procedures organized to perform manufacturing operations.
