Arkwright system

The Arkwright system refers to a method of organized textile manufacturing developed by Sir Richard Arkwright in the late 18th century. It combined water-powered spinning frames with centralized factories, allowing many workers and machines to operate together efficiently. This system increased production speed and consistency, revolutionizing the textile industry. It marked a shift from small-scale, manual production to large-scale industrial manufacturing, paving the way for modern factory-based economies. The Arkwright system was significant for its use of water power, mechanization, and factory organization, contributing to the Industrial Revolution's profound economic and social changes.
