Description

Explore the global diffusion of flexible automation through this detailed study from Routledge. This book examines how flexible automation impacts scale and scope at both the local and firm levels. By analyzing sixty-two different firms across Brazil, India, Mexico, Thailand, Turkey, and Venezuela, the research provides a deep look into how computer-numerically-controlled machine tools change production dynamics. Readers will learn how these technologies affect lot sizes, product variety, and total output for plants and entire firms. The text investigates the specific motives behind adopting these technologies and identifies the barriers that companies face when setting up FA-based operations. This study is a valuable resource for understanding the implications for the location of production in developing economies and how technological shifts influence manufacturing strategies.
