FORD MOTOR CO ASSEMBLY LINE
December 1, 1913 - Highland Park, Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A.
The continuous moving assembly line introduced by Ford in his Highland Park, Detroit, Michigan, factory was capable of delivering a car every 2-min 38-sec. By the summer of 1913, three subassemblies (magnetos, motors, and transmissions) were assembled on moving lines using conveyor belts. Because these moving lines produced subassemblies faster than the main production line could take them, a moving chassis line was added to replace his "push" assembly line. The method was so successful that the Ford Motor Co. became the world's largest car manufacturer. Business men the world over flocked to Detroit to glean the secrets of the moving assembly line.
