Preface

In competitive market conditions, manufacturing enterprises should produce high quality products using productive manufacturing processes. Mass production requires standardized processes for manufacturing of interchangeable parts in large quantities at comparable prices. While this sounds good, it is hard to do as it requires many components to be considered in great detail. The use of modern methods and techniques of mass production provides improvements in the manufacturing costs and product quality. Manufacturers are trying to survive and/or to take a share in hard global market conditions by using these methods and techniques. With the associated advanced technologies of Industry 4.0 such as cyber physical systems and internet of things, mass production has been revolutionised but it will always have issues such as quality control of the production process.

Thanks to all the manufacturers working for better quality products.
