Manufacturing systems refer to the organised structures and processes used to create goods in large quantities efficiently. They involve the integration of machines, materials and methods to produce finished products. These systems have various stages, from initial design and planning to assembly and distribution. Key components include production lines, automated machinery and quality control measures to ensure consistency and reliability in output. Manufacturing systems utilise advanced technologies like robotics, Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining to streamline operations and enhance productivity. They are crucial in industries ranging from automotive and electronics to pharmaceuticals and aerospace, where optimising production processes is essential for meeting market demands and maintaining competitiveness. Continuous improvement and adaptation to new technologies characterise the evolution of modern manufacturing systems. This book elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary manner. From theories to research to practical applications, case studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this field have been included in this book. The readers would gain knowledge that would broaden their perspective about manufacturing systems.
