Material Flow

Material Flow is a process-level construct in manufacturing systems that specifies the movement, transformation, and positioning of raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods through a production sequence, particularly characterized by its continuous, uninterrupted progression enabled by integrated solid-state joining techniques such as friction stir welding in solid-state welding environments.
