3
Why might a manufacturer choose to use a
semi-automated production line
?
It allows flexibility while increasing efficiency
It is cheaper than full automation
It removes the need for workers
It is the slowest production method
4
What is a key
advantage of laser cutting
in manufacturing?
It can only be used on metals
It reduces material waste and improves precision
It requires manual cutting after the process
It is slower than traditional cutting methods
5
What is an
advantage of injection moulding
in mass production?
It is mainly used for metal casting
It is best suited for one-off custom products
It allows fast and consistent manufacturing
It does not require a mould
6
Why do manufacturers
outsource production to different countries
?
To reduce costs and access specialised skills
To make products less sustainable
To slow down production
To increase production costs
7
What is a major advantage of using
Computer-Aided Design (CAD)
in product development?
It allows designers to quickly modify and test ideas
It makes hand-drawn sketches unnecessary
It eliminates the need for physical prototypes
It increases production time
8
Why do manufacturers
use batch production
when launching a new product?
To test the market before mass production
To create only one unique item
To avoid using any automation
To produce millions of units immediately
9
What is one reason why
batch production
is used instead of continuous production?
It increases production waste
It makes products cheaper to produce
