Ford Motors Production Line, What It Looks Like 100 Years Ago And Now(Photos) by Explorers(m): 11:25am On Dec 14, 2017 |
Over one hundred years ago, Henry Ford and his team at Highland Park assembly plant launched the world’s greatest contribution to auto manufacturing, the world's first moving assembly line. It simplified assembly of the Ford Model T’s 3,000 parts by breaking it into 84 distinct steps performed by groups of workers as a rope pulled the vehicle chassis down the line. When engineers constructed a crude system using a rope and winch to pull a Ford Model T past 140 workers in a sprawling new factory. Not only did the moving assembly line drastically increase the pace at which cars were produced, it also drove down the price of each car making them more accessible to the masses. Bringing the product to the worker instead of moving various teams of workers to the product became the idea that overhauled the manufacturing industry as a whole. A new standard had taken over making it possible to generate more products and greater income through mass production. The pictures below tell a story of just how innovative the moving assembly line was at its genesis and how continued progress has refined the process over the last ten decades. Early Model T assembly at Highland Park Plant. https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/features/celebrating-the-moving-assembly-line-in-pictures.html?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C4264109672 Lalasticlala, Mynd44 1 Like

Improved processes and ergonomics, as displayed here in 2012 at a plant, have brought many workers out of the pits and into a safer, healthier work environment. 1 Like

I doubt if the guy behind this monicker "explorers" is a Nigerian. He doesn't think like an African not to mention Nigeria. Back to topic; this whites are more human tha. Most of we blacks. They aim in life is to make it easy for humans. NOTE: I don't stand to be corrected 2 Likes
