Manufacturing is converting from blue collar to white collar.
It's more important to be a process developer and a technologist to operate the machinery and design the assembly process than it is to actually turn a wrench.
I can only imagine 3d printing and accelerating product cycles will increase this effect. Dev ops in the real world - the designers and the manufacturers become the same people and the result is 'autonomation' to use the toyota term.
