This Desktop Factory, from the Japan Micromachine Center, is a working concept production line that can be placed on a desktop. It includes everything that a full size factory line would use, just done very teeny.

‘A processing unit, conveyor unit, assembly unit, inspection unit and other unit indispensable to large-scale factories are marvelously integrated into this microfactory. In addition, it is possible to set up a perfect on-demand system in the home and office by downloading programs off of the Internet at any time.’
