How pencils are made in a Japanese factory [video]
I always wonder, when I see videos like this: who creates the system of little machines that nudge, shove and knock items from one step to the next?What's their job called? And when that is your job, can you just go into any factory and come up with the answer – or do you specialise in a certain field? And all the parts you use commodity, or are they specific to pencil making, for example?If anyone has any light to shed on this field of work I'd be interested to learn more.
