Cereal storage is a critical link in the food supply chain, impacting food security, quality, and sustainability. The present chapter provides a comprehensive examination of cereal storage systems in terms of engineering design, manufacturing planning, construction management, technology solutions, and business functions, by focusing on four key facility elements: I. factory and plant layout; II. warehouse and transportation; III. automation, robotics, and sensors; and IV. postharvesting equipment. Through a systematic lens, engineering design principles, construction management strategies, and technological solutions, etc., are explored. It also highlights the interdependence of facility elements and their impact on business functions, emphasizing the need for well-planned layouts and integrated technologies. The chapter delves into advanced manufacturing processes, automation, and real-time monitoring as essential components for optimal cereal storage. Additionally, it introduces the concept of turnkey projects and one-stop services as modern business functions in this domain. Offering practical insights, it can serve as a valuable resource for professionals and enthusiasts seeking a holistic understanding of cereal storage systems, bridging the gap between theory and practical application.

“…Assembly is one of the most important stages of a company's entire manufacturing process. It is especially critical in certain industries such as aeronautics or automotive, where products with high precision requirements are manufactured [19]. The final assembly accuracy of products is dependent on many factors such as the dimension and geometric tolerances of the parts to be assembled, the assembly clearance of parts, the load deformation, the deformation caused by residual stress release, and the adjustment of the assembly process [20].…”

This paper presents a machine vision system that performs the automatic positioning of optical components in LED modules of automotive headlamps. The automatic adjustment of the module is a process of great interest at the industrial level, as it allows us to reduce reworks, increasing the company profits. We propose a machine vision system with a flexible hardware–software structure that allows it to adapt to a wide range of LED modules. Its hardware is composed of image-capturing devices, which enable us to obtain the LED module light pattern, and mechanisms for manipulating and holding the module to be adjusted. Its software design follows a component-based approach which allows us to increase the reusage of the code, decreasing the time required for configuring any type of LED module. To assess the efficiency and robustness of the industrial system, a series of tests, using three commercial models of LED modules, have been performed. In all cases, the automatically adjusted LED modules followed the ECE R112 regulation for automotive lighting.
