factory worker<\/p>\n
Definition: “A factory<\/b> (previously manufactory<\/b>) or manufacturing plant<\/b> is an industrial site, usually consisting of buildings and machinery, or more commonly a complex having several buildings, where workers manufacture<\/a> goods<\/a> or operate machines<\/a> processing<\/a> one product into another.<\/p>\n Factories arose with the introduction of machinery during the Industrial Revolution<\/a> when the capital and space requirements became too great for cottage industry<\/a> or workshops. Early factories that contained small amounts of machinery, such as one or two spinning mules<\/a>, and fewer than a dozen workers have been called “glorified workshops”.[1]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n Most modern factories have large warehouses or warehouse<\/a>-like facilities that contain heavy equipment<\/a> used for assembly line<\/a> production. Large factories tend to be located with access to multiple modes of transportation, with some having rail, highway and water loading and unloading facilities.<\/p>\n Factories may either make discrete products or some type of material continuously produced<\/a> such as chemicals<\/a>, pulp and paper<\/a>, or refined oil products<\/a>. Factories manufacturing chemicals are often called plants<\/a><\/i> and may have most of their equipment \u2013 tanks, pressure vessels<\/a>, chemical reactors<\/a>, pumps and piping \u2013 outdoors and operated from control rooms<\/a>. Oil refineries<\/a> have most of their equipment outdoors.<\/p>\n Discrete products may be final consumer goods, or parts and sub-assemblies which are made into final products elsewhere. Factories may be supplied parts from elsewhere or make them from raw materials. Continuous production<\/a> industries typically use heat or electricity to transform streams of raw materials into finished products.<\/p>\n The term mill<\/i> originally referred to the milling of grain, which usually used natural resources such as water or wind power until those were displaced by steam power in the 19th century. Because many processes like spinning and weaving, iron rolling, and paper manufacturing were originally powered by water, the term survives as in steel mill<\/i>, paper mill<\/i>, etc.” (Wikipedia<\/a>)<\/p>\n The Cheesecake Factory<\/p>\n The Factory (2012 movie)<\/p>\n The Lie Factory<\/p>\n decision factory<\/p>\n Factory Balls 2 at Math Playground<\/p>\n Fear Factory<\/p>\n Mattress Factory – A museum of contemporary art that presents art you can get into.

This is done by creating objects via calling a factory method\u2014either specified in an interface and implemented by child classes, or implemented in a base class and optionally overridden by derived classes\u2014rather than by calling a constructor<\/a>.” (Wikipedia<\/a>)<\/p>\n factory tours<\/p>\n factory farms<\/p>\n Factory<\/em> Design Suite is 3D digital factory<\/em> layout software that helps you design and visualize more efficient facility layouts before equipment is installed.<\/span><\/p>\n Little Factory<\/em> makes simple, playful, one of a kind items.<\/span><\/p>\n Factory<\/em> Girls is a fashion incubator focused on high-level apparel designers based in the Southeast<\/span><\/p>\n factory outlet store<\/p>\n Post the direct URL (link) where your drawing, doodle, artwork is posted (e.g. your blog, Flickr) in the comments area of this post.
