This article is a stub. It needs to be expanded.

Nanoscale

See main page: Bottom scale assembly lines in gem-gum factories.
Components of these assembly lines are as small as physics permits.
Bottom scale assembly lines include:

Microscale and larger scales

Assembly line style manufacturing at higher assembly levels is likely not necessary since there is enough space that allows for programmable assembly and at macroscopic even for very high dexterity. See: Gem-gum tentacle manipulator

Quite similar to assembly line manufacturing though is part streaming assembly.

  • there is also the need for an attachment chain and adapter pallets. But ...
  • the path of transport needs some dynamic live in operation shape changing capabilities
  • there is no manipulation of the transported path along the path of transport but rather assembly of the parts of the stream into a bigger structure at the and of the path of transport.

For the macroscale in gem-gum tentacle manipulators there should be plenty of space even for a combination of the two.
This would be a part streaming assembly with integrated assembly line.
