English term or phrase: industrialization
Can the word "industrialization" have a meaning "a process of having a developed equipment made at a factory"? For example, one developed a product, for example, a car, and now one have to go on with making it, proceeds from paper drawings of a car to a real object made of metal and all that stuff. Can we call it industrialization?

Here is an original abstract from the article:

"If this process is to progress beyond an interesting area of investigation with limited application, a clear objective of industrialisation and commercial application must be pursued at some point."

large scale manufacture not merely fabrication
Explanation:
The fabrication of a machine from a design is different than the industrial application of that fabrication.

It is the process of going from a physical prototype (the fabrication of a machine from a prototype) to large scale production that is industrialization.

Here is a useful example from a commercial website:

Coming up with a great idea for a product, building different prototypes and producing a small series are all different to producing a product in high volume. When the numbers go up, the drive for reliability goes up as well. Philips Innovation Services provides a full spectrum of industrialization services that can cover every step from prototype and low volume production to high volume manufacturing with Industrialization scenarios & concept - See more at: http://www.innovationservices.philips.com/service-catalog/se...

"Effective Prototyping and Industrialization

Unlike most rapid prototyping houses, AMTI has in-house design and industrial engineering assets with years of experience bringing new products through the New Product Introduction process.

This direct experience provides peace of mind and brings new opportunities to save costs on larger production volumes."
