Public Production Engineering

Public production engineering is the design of production engineering and quality control that allows for efficient, high quality production on the small scale of an owner-operator. The Owner-Operator is a small family business from 1 to about a dozen people. The distinction between craft and public production engineering is that the public production engineering enterprise relies on higher technology or automated equipment. However, unlike mass production - the level of technology required is still accessible and low cost by virtue of open source hardware.
