Automation technology has made manufacturing a quick and practically effortless job.
In the present day and age we have a machine to do almost everything.
The technology that exists in our world has transformed time and time again. There are things people used to do by hand exclusively that are rarely done by hand anymore. We may find our elders argue that in the old days things were much simpler and in many ways they probably were. But then you get conflicting messages for example I remember my grandparents saying that in their day, life was a lot harder.
Why exactly was that? Lets dig deeper shall we?
Well, they said that things like washing machines, mobile phones and vacume cleaners didn't exist in their youth. Things still got done, they just were done differently. Things that are simple now just to be quite complex and require a lot of human labor.
Nowadays, it seems we have a machine to do almost everything. Things we don't have a machine to do for us yet there is certainly someone working on making one! This is an exciting time to be alive indeed!
Automation technology has made manufacturing a quick and practically effortless job. In this article I'll present some fascinating machines that you've probably never heard of or seen. If you wonder how an ice-cream cone gets made, let me show you!
- The Ice Cream Cone Maker
Who doesn't love ice cream and who doesn't love it even more when it comes in a waffle cone?
The waffle cone is an interesting sort of delicacy. Crunchy and delicious while being strong enough to hold two or even three scoops of ice cream without crumbling under pressure!
I'd have to speculate that waffle cones were around before a machine was invented to make them but they needed to be rolled by hand and that of course took skill and labor.

- The Apple Peeler, Slicer and Corer.
I've been peeling, slicing and coring apples since I was a child. There's something fun about an apple, it takes a bit of work to get it ready but when you bite into its juicy goodness it all seems like its worth it in the end. But isn't it a pain to peel, slice and core your own apples?
If you are like me you may have been in a rush, popped into a supermarket and bought a packed of sliced apple that had been prepared and ready to snack on?
But have you ever thought about what goes into the process to get it ready for you? Surely there aren't people spending their days away slicing and peeling for you are there? How do they make each slice of apple so perfect?
Take a look for yourself and see how that gets done below!
So far I've discussed two inventions that amounted to a complete shift from human labor to automation. The waffle cone maker and apple peeler are certainly reducing the time and amount of human labor required to complete the same tasks by hand. But beyond the scope of inventions that have taken human labor out of the equation, there are also inventions that have allowed us to expand and create new possibilities. The next two inventions I will discuss aren't quite as straight forward as the apple peeler but they are both quite interesting and provide ample room for speculation.
So without further delay, I bring you an invention that before its time I have absolutely no clue if it was even possible to create a similar product...
- The Globe Presser
How is a teacher supposed to teach geography without a globe to show their kids? Before globes people needed to resort to 2d maps which simply distort what is really going on with the world.
Before the invention of plastics and rubber products people most likely used other materials in their place to create similar objects. I would imagine that a paper globe most likely existed long before a rubber or plastic version was ever made.
Everybody loves a good globe to throw around and play dodge ball with or heaven forbid, learn geography from! This is how worlds are made!
