During this year the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), will activate automatic production lines for the manufacture of batteries dedicated to iPhones, all in an attempt to reduce the number of employees in its factories. Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), has already switched to automatic production lines for Mac Pro si iMac, and for batteries the exact same change will be made, allowing a substantial reduction in production costs. The change in the manufacturing process should not have any impact on the final products, but Apple's batteries are not known to be exceptionally good, with many of them failing and destroying iDevices.
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.
It is not yet known when this transition process would take place, but there is a good chance that it will iPhone 6 and the new iPad tablets to have batteries manufactured in the new automated lines.
