"The last economic revolution of similar magnitude took place between
1870 and 1917. At that time, the development of continuous process
machinery enabled the production of high volume standardized products.
This was coupled with newly constructed railroads that allowed for
mass distribution of those products, and the telegraph, which provided
for instantaneous communication."

"Continuous (process) Production ? This technology is controlled by
the manufacturing process itself and requires little worker
involvement. For example, oil refining intakes continuous crude oil
for transformation into petroleum products."

"An important American development was continuous-process
manufacturing. In continuous-process manufacturing, large quantities
of the same product, such as cigarettes or canned food, are made in a
nonstop operation. The process runs continuously, except for repairs
to or maintenance of the machinery used. In the late 18th century,
inventor Oliver Evans of Delaware created a remarkable water-powered
flour mill. In Evans?s mill, machinery elevated the grain to the top
of the mill and then moved it mechanically through various processing
steps, eventually producing flour at the bottom of the mill. The
process greatly reduced the need for manual labor and cut milling
costs dramatically. Mills modeled after Evans?s were built along the
Delaware and Brandywine rivers and Chesapeake Bay, and by the time of
the American Revolution (1775-1783) they were arguably the most
productive in the world. Similar milling technology was also used to
grind snuff and other tobacco products in the same region.

As the 19th century passed, Americans improved continuous-process
technology and expanded its use."
