  4. Chapter 13 MANUFACTURING • A manufacturing process – usually, several manufacturers are a part of the total activity needed to produce goods. • Types of manufacturing procedures • Mass production • Custom manufacturing • Materials processing

  5. What is the difference between custom manufacturing and materials processing? Chapter 13 Checkpoint >> Answer • Custom manufacturing is building a unique product to meet the needs of one customer. • Materials processing is changing the form of raw materials so they can be used to make other products. • Custom manufacturing involves a smaller amount of materials; materials processing involves larger quantities.
