MANY PRODUCTS ARE MANUFACTURED AND ASSEMBLED, ON A PRODUCTION LINE. BEFORE THE INTRODUCTION OF COMPUTER CONTROL

AND ROBOTS, PRODUCTION LINES WERE OPERATED BY PEOPLE. EACH PERSON WOULD CARRY OUT A LIMITED NUMBER OF TASKS, OR EVEN JUST ONE TASK. THE PRODUCT WOULD THEN BE PASSED DOWN THE

PRODUCTION LINE, TO THE NEXT PERSON. THIS CONTINUED UNTIL THE PRODUCT WAS COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED. SOME PRODUCTION LINES

STILL OPERATE IN THIS WAY.
