In each <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjhdZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Manufacturing</a> event, raw materials or component parts are combined to produce a product (whether by a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjvI5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ManufacturingOrganization</a> or by an individual). In a typical <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjhdZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Manufacturing</a> process, the motivation of the manufacturer is that the value of the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViYA5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">outputs</a> should exceed the value of the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVi3DZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">inputs</a>. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjhdZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Manufacturing</a> does not include related or supportive processes such as transporting the raw materials to the manufacturing site, scheduling done ahead of time, etc. -- the concept <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViW6pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ProductionEvent</a> covers that bigger picture.

Each element of this collection is a continuous manufacturing process that can be kept going arbitrarily long (depending on, e.g., the availability of inputs, power, labor, etc.). Product begins to be produced some time after the process is started and continues to be produced during the run. A hallmark of continuous (vs. batch or run) manufacturing is that inputs are added continously or periodically, and outputs and byproducts are removed continously or periodically, during the process. manufacturing run ManufacturingRun A <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViECZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ManufacturingRun</a> is a single iteration of a process that intentionally produces a stream of products. A <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViECZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ManufacturingRun</a> may consist of several steps, each of which is typically a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjhdZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Manufacturing</a>. A <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViECZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ManufacturingRun</a> does not include ancillary events associated with the manufacturing, such as collection of materials, disposal of waste, or quality control inspection of the product.

A collection of events. In each <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVj4t5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ManufacturingASingleObject</a> event, manufacturing procedures are applied to only a single object or a single chunk of stuff. This includes both one-off creation events such as carving a statue, and also can be a `slice' of a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVj375wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MassManufacturing</a> event in which all that is considered is how one single small lump of stuff or set of parts gets acted on to become some new thing. In the latter case, then, what is `produced' is one car, one can of Coke, etc., even though that is just one part or iteration of a mass manufacturing event taking place. manufacturing a single object ManufacturingASingleObject manufacturing in which CBRN plays a product role (SubcollectionOfWithRelationToTypeFn Manufacturing productsCreated (CollectionUnionFn (TheSet NuclearWeapon ChemicalWeapon RadiologicalExplosiveWeapon BiologicalWeapon))) Knitting knitting In instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwAITl5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Knitting</a>, a fiber (usually <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWKy8ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Yarn</a>) is formed into a row of a series of loops, then back along the same row making loops through the last set of loops, and so on to form a piece of fabric.
