Batch processes.

In general practice, batch process and jobbing processes can be similar, but the batch processes have less variety compared with the jobbing processes. 

As the term batch indicates, the output of each process will make more than one piece of the product. In the manufacturing line, each single operation has its own repeatable part. 

The individual operation is repeating itself during the batch production. If the size of the batch is small, only two or three pieces, the batch processes will be nearly the same as the jobbing processes. 

This is normally in the case of a new product. However, if the batch size is large, and the products are frequently manufactured on the production lines, the batch processes can be repetitive. 

Therefore, the batch processes can support a wider range of volume and variety, compared with other processes. Take an LED bulb manufacturer for example. 

The manufacturing of the T12 LED tube light and T8 LED tube light can be batch processes, and the size will be large.

Mass processes.

The mass processes are designed to deal with products in high volume but low variety, in terms of the design or mechanism of the products. The LED tube light products can be an example. 

There are many types of tubes available, such as the T12 LED tube light and T8 LED tube light. 

However, the manufacturing lines are still mass processes because the different features or variants of the tubes do not affect the nature of the manufacturing activities.

They are using the same processes, with only some different spare parts installed on the lines. The processes in the LED light production lines are most likely repetitive and predictable. 

For examples, the tubes are firstly neonskyltar assembled with the chips, then with the drivers, and finally with the housing. Of course, different tubes may use different types of LED chips, LED drivers and housing.

Continuous processes.

The continuous processes are the next stop of the mass processes, which work at higher volume and lower variety. These processes can be interpreted as the production activities with longer timescale. 

In some cases, the manufacturing lines work endlessly to make huge quantity of products. These products seem inseparable and are needed in an endless flow.

In some extreme cases, the continuous processes are required to work continuously, as the operation needs to supply the goods without a break. 

These processes are normally designed to deal with relatively inflexible, capital-intensive technologies with highly predictable flow.
