Industrial Technology - Technological Development in Industry

Technological Development in Industry

A major subject of study is technological development in industry. This has been defined as:

• the introduction of new tools and techniques for performing given tasks in production, distribution, data processing (etc.);

• the mechanization of the production process, or the achievement of a state of greater autonomy of technical production systems from human control, responsibility, or intervention;

• changes in the nature and level of integration of technical production systems, or enhanced interdependence;

• the development, utilization, and application of new scientific ideas, concepts, and information in production and other processes; and

• enhancement of technical performance capabilities, or increase in the efficiency of tools, equipment, and techniques in performing given tasks.

Studies in this area often employ a multi-disciplinary research methodology and shade off into the wider analysis of business and economic growth (development, performance). The studies are often based on a mixture of industrial field research and desk-based data analysis and aim to be of interest and use to practitioners in business management and investment (etc.) as well as academics. In engineering, construction, textiles, food and drugs, chemicals and petroleum, and other industries the focus has been not just on the nature and factors facilitating and hampering the introduction and utilization of new technologies but also on the impact of new technologies on the production organization (etc.) of firms and various social and other wider aspects of the technological development process.

How and When Technological development in industry Performed : 1- Technological Processes based always on (Material, Equipment, Human skills and operating circumstances. 2- So, If any of these parameters changed, We have to Re-calibrate this technology to match the designed product. 3- This Re-Calibration can't be considered as a technology change because industrial technology is not more than an Engineering guide to achieve the required specification of the designed product. 4- To calibrate any industrial technology, we should make a documented triers of manufacturing experiments until matching the final product specifications based on original technology, new changed parameters and scientific basics. 5- Finally, documentation of the new change should be done to the original industrial technology for that new case as a new addition. 6- Any application of industrial technology for 1st time or after a long time stop,Technology processes should be tested by a primary samples triers as a Re-calibration process.
