Pre-production \u2013 production preparation (technical documentation, procurement) b. Production \u2013 conversion of raw materials into finished products, including assembly and final inspection c. Post-production \u2013 storage, packaging (labeling), shipping (loading onto a vehicle), actual sales, handling complaints Classification of the production process based on labor involvement: a. manual \u2013 the worker acts on the material using a machine or tool, highest proportion of labor b. automated \u2013 the worker prepares, directs, and monitors the production process, minimal human labor, e.g., operating a production line c. natural \u2013 humans do not participate 1. biological \u2013 fruit ripening, dough rising 2. chemical \u2013 oxidation 3. physical \u2013 freezing, baking                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                "},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Manufacturing Process","item":"https:\/\/www.bisou.dk\/manufacturing-process\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
