Digital manufacturing

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

Digital manufacturing (1) must not be confused with digital control over matter (2).
The former (1) is about digital control over manufacturing processes like CNC machines or 3D-printers.
The latter (2) is about the products being in some sense digital.
Having very many discrete parts of known type at at-all-times-known positions in an automated way.

The focus here in this wiki is the latter (2).
