To cope with the increasingly severe international business environment, Japanese manufacturers have been focusing on the idea of "monozukuri" (Japanese way of manufacturing). Monozukuri was highlighted because it is a simple way for Japanese industry to compete by producing good products based on manufacturing experiences going back to 1960. Japanese manufacturers and businesses have tried various technologies to strengthen manufacturing to overcome competition. This paper reviews the growth of Japanese industry and describes manufacturing innovations and future growth plans based on the technologies and business environment of Japan.

Selecting the most appropriate assembly system can offer enormous benefits in terms of product quality, cost reduction and manufacturing productivity. However, selecting the right system for a product depends on a large number of factors and is not a simple problem. Its solution requires considerable expertise and there is a lack of systematic approaches to support decision making in this area. The paper presents a strategy for selecting assembly systems for a product based on technological and economic considerations, including component and assembly design, component variability and production conditions. Application of the strategy is illustrated through the use of a number of industrial case studies across a range of business sectors. The case study reference data are provided in a common format to enable businesses to compare in the selection process.
