Before assembly lines
Both
After assembly lines
Before assembly lines:
- Car manufacturing was a slow and labor-intensive process
- Each car was assembled by hand, with workers performing specific tasks
- Manufacturing was often done in small workshops or factories
- Production rates were limited and cars were expensive
Both:
- Skilled workers were still required to build cars
- Cars were still built using various parts and components
After assembly lines:
- Car manufacturing became faster and more efficient
- The moving assembly line allowed cars to be built in a continuous flow
- Tasks were divided into smaller, repetitive steps
- Production rates increased significantly
- Cars became more affordable for the average consumer
