1. What is the current trend in manufacturing? Describe it in terms of market changes, technological development ( on both products and processes), managerial organization and shifts in philosophy, and social changes (brain generation, \"the green movement,\" and so on).

Solution

Considering the present trend in manufacturing in such a cut throat compititional environment, it is very necessary for the industries to focus and develop on the product quality without loss in volume and to do so improvising the maufacturing processes. Some of the major highlights will be discussed below:

1. Internet: Making internet available in all the manufacturing facilities being connected to the machines, labours etc, it is being a learning environment to know the every progress around the world and implement the same in the respective facilities.

Accordingly it is noted that the overall equipment effectiveness is increased by24% and labour utility by 10%.

2. Robotics: Due to non availability of skilled labours and also due to increase in the labour cost, using robotics has been the suitable replacement. China being the extensive users of robotic technology from over a decade it has been noted that the shipments are been doubled every 4years, proving the 100% growth once in 4years.

3. Augumented reality: It is nothing but the usage of advancement in computer design, computer graphics, 3D drawings, information technology, and virtual graphics in manufacturing which helps in getting the absolute accuracies in lesser time durations.

4. 3D printing: It is also termed as additive manufacturing. Using this technology we can actually print the actual object either made out of plastic or resign just by feedng the data digitally. It should be used in every industry by which creating the prototypes will be less time consuming making the product to hit the market quicker.
