Modern automobile assembly line.

The assembly line developed by Ford Motor Company between 1908 and 1915 made assembly lines famous in the following decade through the social ramifications of mass production, such as the affordability of the Ford Model T and the introduction of high wages for Ford workers.

Henry Ford was the first to master the moving assembly line and was able to improve other aspects of industry by doing so ( such as reducing labor hours required to produce a single vehicle, and increased production numbers and parts ).

Ford was the first company to build large factories around the assembly line concept.

Lotus Cars assembly line as of 2008

Consider the assembly of a car: assume that certain steps in the assembly line are to install the engine, install the hood, and install the wheels ( in that order, with arbitrary interstitial steps ); only one of these steps can be done at a time.

In an assembly line, car assembly is split between several stations, all working simultaneously.

Assuming no loss of time when moving a car from one station to another, the longest stage on the assembly line determines the throughput ( 20 minutes for the engine installation ) so a car can be produced every 20 minutes, once the first car taking 35 minutes has been produced.

The actual assembly line used an overhead crane to mount the body.

The assembly line concept was independently redeveloped throughout history and not " invented " at one time by one person.

The development of toolpath control via jigs, fixtures, for machine tools ( such as the screw-cutting lathe, metal planer and milling machine ) during the early 19th century provided the prerequisites for the modern assembly line by making interchangeable parts a practical reality.

Thus, before the modern assembly line took shape, there were prototypical forms in various industries, as outlined below.

This separation can be compared to an assembly line, in which an instruction is made more complete at each stage until it exits the execution pipeline and is retired.

Besides flathead bronze screws, silicon bronze Stronghold nails ( made by Independent Nail & Packing Co., Bridgewater, Mass. ) are used extensively in assembly and Weldwood resorcinol glue is used in all the joints.

It is presumed that this negative head was associated with some geometric factor of the assembly, since different readings were obtained with the same fluid and the only apparent difference was the assembly and disassembly of the apparatus.

There is a wide variety of representations possible and one can express a given Turing machine program as a sequence of machine tables ( see more at finite state machine, state transition table and control table ), as flowcharts ( see more at state diagram ), or as a form of rudimentary machine code or assembly code called " sets of quadruples " ( see more at Turing machine ).

Mass production via assembly lines is widely considered to be the catalyst which initiated the modern consumer culture by making possible low unit cost for manufactured goods.

The Amber multiverse consists of Amber, a city at one pole of the universe wherein is found the Pattern, the symbol of Order ; The Courts of Chaos, an assembly of worlds at the other pole where can be found the Logrus, the manifestation of Chaos, and the Abyss, the source or end of all reality ; and Shadow, the collection of all possible universes ( shadows ) between and around them.

These measured positions are then compared with those calculated by the laws of celestial mechanics: an assembly of calculated positions is often referred to as an ephemeris, in which distances are commonly calculated in astronomical units.

An assembly language is a low-level programming language for a computer, microcontroller, or other programmable device, in which each statement corresponds to a single machine code instruction.

Each assembly language is specific to a particular computer architecture, in contrast to most high-level programming languages, which are generally portable across multiple systems.

Assembly language is converted into executable machine code by a utility program referred to as an assembler ; the conversion process is referred to as assembly, or assembling the code.

Honduras's manufacturing sector has not yet developed beyond simple textile and agricultural processing industries and assembly operations.

Hundreds of small manufacturing firms, the traditional backbone of Honduran enterprise, began to go out of business beginning in the early 1990s, as import costs rose and competition through increasing wages for skilled labor from the mostly Asian-owned assembly industries strengthened.

In recent times, the employment of joysticks has become commonplace in many industrial and manufacturing applications, such as ; cranes, assembly lines, forestry equipment, mining trucks, and excavators.

The car sold for an expensive 4, 500 marks ( expensive considering the less expensive manufacturing process ) but by the 1930s this type of vehicle would cost a mere 1, 990 marks – due in part to the assembly line, but also due to the skyrocketing demand for cars.

Conveyor technology is also used in conveyor transport such as moving sidewalks or escalators, as well as on many manufacturing assembly lines.

Each category can have a number of sub-categories, for example, within the commercial category there may be separate zones for small-retail, large retail, office use, lodging and others, while industrial may be subdivided into heavy manufacturing, light assembly and warehouse uses.
