I am trying to create a custom Inventory Route that creates Manufacturing Orders when the required components are moved to a specific Location. However, it appears that the Manufacture Rule in Routes only creates Manufacturing Orders when Sales Orders are used.

"When products are needed in Destination Location,
a manufacturing order is created to fulfill the need."

I would classify this as "Pull" Manufacturing but I am trying to use "Push" manufacturing that automatically transforms material and requires no Sales Orders.

Example: Product 001 BOM contains a single component: 002. 
1. QTY:10 002's are moved to PROD Location
2. Manufacturing Order for QTY:10 001's is automatically created

I would appreciate any suggestions or advice.

You need a requirement for the finish products.   Create a reordering rule for the finish products and manufacturing orders will be created from the route when the program "Scheduler" runs. 

I don't think you can create manufacturing orders with a push rule. Push rules are most for stock placement (Like: "When products get into receive location, move to storage location").
