Assembly Line
built 643 days ago
Custom lines represent another innovation in assembly line methods. Rather than relying on a common assembly line, one automotive supplier that specialized in after-model-year parts such as hoods and fenders developed a system to make custom assembly lines that could be put together and dismantled in a short time. With floor space at a premium, the facility was designed so that nothing was attached to the floor; all of the machinery could either be lifted and carried, or it had wheels or forklift notches for easy movement.
