In cursul acestui an compania Apple va activa linii de productie automate pentru fabricarea de baterii dedicate iPhone-urilor, totul intr-o tentativa de a reduce numarul de angajati din fabricile proprii. Apple a trecut deja la linii de productie automate pentru Mac Pro si iMac, iar pentru baterii se va face exact aceeasi schimbare, ea permitand o reducere substantiala a costurilor de productie. Schimbarea procesului de fabricatie nu ar trebui sa aiba vreun impact asupra produselor finale, insa bateriile Apple nu sunt cunoscute ca fiind extraordinar de bune, multe dintre ele cedand si distrugand iDevice-uri.
Apple is planning to have its iPhone batteries fully manufactured on automated production lines in 2014 to reduce its manpower demand. The move is expected to trigger other brand vendors to follow suit, according to sources from the upstream supply chain. Apple has already automated its Mac Pro and iMac production lines. Other than materials and final assembly, manpower is not required for the rest of the manufacturing.
Nu se stie deocamdata cand ar urma sa aiba loc acest proces de tranzitie, insa exista sanse mari ca iPhone 6 si noile tablete iPad sa aiba baterii fabricate in noile linii automatizate.
