Each sheet is formed so that the battery can be attached behind the structure of car body panels .

Carbon fiber
Glance looks like ordinary carbon fiber material , sepewrti used in racing cars . However, this panel can store and deliver electricity . The body panels generate electricity voltage of 12 volts , can be used for the needs of the completeness of cars that use electricity . Volvo call components as "Structural Super Capacitor " that can recharge its power faster than regular batteries .

Imagine if this technology is embedded in all panels of vehicles, such as the hood, trunk lid , roof and doors , will produce electrical energy which can drive the car.

Before automated assembly line, modern car assembly line is dominated

Dearborn - Do you know that before automated assembly line, modern car assembly line is dominated because of giving more efficient procedures?

Today almost all brands have done their production activities at the plant with a more systematic . But it turns out , the first brand which adopted the moving assembly system which is now adopted almost every brand is Ford .

In the moving assembly systems , cars are assembled in the production line where each worker installing car parts separately before passed to another worker who put in front of another part . When he reached the threshold , the car has been finished assembled .



The method has been made ​​Ford one century ago this was a method of mass production of the car was then considered the most efficient method and was later adopted by almost all the brands in the world .

" A hundred years ago , my great-grandfather had a vision to build a safe and efficient transportation for everyone , " said Bill Ford , Ford's executive chairman .

" The core principles of Henry Ford that quality components , workflow , and efficiency of the division of labor is still relevant today . Taking advantage of that tradition , we accelerate efforts to standardize production , creating a more flexible production facilities and introducing advanced technologies to efficiently produce vehicles best at the best value to our customers wherever they are , " said John Fleming , Ford executive vice president of Global Manufacturing .

With this system in 2013, Ford is also expected to produce 6 million vehicles , or about 16 vehicles every 60 seconds ( 1 minute ) around the world .

This October , moving production method has touched the life of 100 years after a hundred years ago , Henry Ford and his team at Highland Park assembly facility run first moving assembly lines in the world .

This innovation simplifies component assembly 3000 Ford Model T to break it down into 84 different steps are performed by the same group of workers , with pull straps on the vehicle chassis assembly lines .

This new process is revolutionizing the production and reduce the assembly time for one vehicle from 12 hours to about 90 minutes .

By reducing the money , time and manpower needed to build along with Henry Ford's automobile assembly lines improve over the years , Ford is able to lower the price of Model T from $ 850 to less than $ 300 .

And for the first time in history , quality vehicles become affordable for the community . Finally , Ford is producing a Model T every 24 seconds and managed to sell over 15 million units worldwide in 1927 , approximately half of all cars sold at that time .

" Ford's new approach spread rapidly , not only to other car manufacturers , but also to record producers , vacuum cleaners , refrigerators and other consumer goods , " said Bob Casey , a former curator of transportation at The Henry Ford , and author of The Model T : A Centennial History .

In 1914 , Ford set a " daily wage of $ 5 " , a significant wage at the time, to allow employees to buy vehicles they produce . This step creates loyalty among workers and acclaimed Ford raises new middle-class consumers who are not hindered by geographical boundaries , free to travel on the open road , live wherever they want and pursue the dream of " America ".
