  Interchangeable parts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Interchangeable parts are components of an assembly which are designed to meet specific tolerances so that any component of one type can be fitted with any component of a second type.
The first concepts of interchangeability began to be developed in France during the 18th century, and around 1778, Honoré Blanc began producing some of the first firearms with interchangeable parts.
With interchangeable parts, the problems that had plagued the era of unique weapons and equipment passed, and if one mechanism in a weapon failed, a new piece could be ordered and the weapon would not have to be discarded.

 American system of manufacturing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Since parts are interchangeable, it is also possible to separate manufacture from assembly, and assembly may be carried out by semi-skilled labor on an assembly line - an example of the division of labor.
But however skilled the machinist, parts were never identical, and each part had to be manufactured separately to fit its counterpart—almost always by one person who produced each completed item from start to finish.
Although the use of machines and templates was developed by le Blanc and Whitney, the idea of interchangeable parts and the separate assembly line was not new, though it was little used.

 The Eli Whitney Museum, Eli Whitney: The Inventor
The concept of interchangeable parts was used by Christopher Polhem in the manufacture of clock gears in Sweden at the beginning of the 1700s.
Interchangeability requires precision machine tools to make exact parts; it appears that the Whitneyville milling machine was made after Whitney’s death when his nephews modernized the factory in 1827.
Interchangeability might have been a by-product of his ideal factory; it was certainly not his single goal.

X company's sales or use of the interchangeable parts and accessories are not subject to the tax imposed by section 4061(b)(1) of the Code by reason of the exemption provided by section 4061(b)(2).

 Caught in the Web
Although the concept of interchangeable parts did not originate with Whitney and did not become widespread until the later development of the machine tool industry...Whitney designed and built the necessary machinery and trained workers to use it, tasks that took longer than he originally expected.
The exciting part of that equation is that it does not matter where the parts (the objects that make up the application) reside--some could be within an organization, others a partner could host.
Interchangeable parts are the precursor to the modern day assembly line.
