New manufacturing processes are constantly added to this optimization process, or existing manufacturing processes are recombined. Manufacturing technologies are also strongly linked to advances in related sciences, such as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eblum.ch\/en\/areas-of-technology\/materials-science\/\">materials science<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eblum.ch\/en\/areas-of-technology\/computer-engineering\/\">computer science<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A patent application can be filed for both manufacturing processes (e.g. a deep-drawing process for the production of coffee capsules) and the necessary manufacturing machines. Often, it is even possible to patent the products and to achieve a monopoly in the consumer markets.
