Dataset description

Final assembly and factory testing/quality control to deliver finished poultry-keeping machinery at the plant gate. This is the reference-flow-producing process for the cradle-to-gate 'at plant' production mix.

Technology description

Cradle-to-gate production mix at the manufacturing plant: upstream raw material supply (primarily steel/iron and other metals), component fabrication, surface finishing, and final assembly/testing into finished poultry-keeping machinery.; Final assembly and factory testing/quality control to deliver finished poultry-keeping machinery at the plant gate. This is the reference-flow-producing process for the cradle-to-gate 'at plant' production mix.; Flow represents a finished, manufactured product at the plant ('Production mix, at plant'), so use/operation and end-of-life are out of scope for this route.; Given the machinery classification and the machinery-focused reference cluster, a metal-dominant material composition is assumed; steel/iron is treated as a key upstream contributor.

Geographic context

China assumed for the manufacturing plant due to missing explicit geography for the poultry-keeping machinery production mix. Scope remains cradle-to-gate at plant; proxy machinery lifecycle literature (10.1007/s11367-020-01769-x) is used only for structural support, not for location matching.
