Evolution Law of Manufacturing Paradigm and Policy Suggestions for Developing New Manufacturing postprint

Abstract: Up to now, the manufacturing paradigm has gone through four stages: handmade, large machine production, assembly line production, and mass customization. Through historical research, this study finds five laws in the evolution of Manufacturing Paradigm, which are: value jump, incommensurability, reverse elimination, original innovation, localization and evolution. Although the transformation process of manufacturing paradigm has a long period of time, the evolution law between the old and new manufacturing paradigms still fully reflects the connotation of “manufacturing revolution”. Based on the study of the Evolution Law of Manufacturing Paradigm, this study puts forward some pertinent policy suggestions for the development of new manufacturing.
