The assembly line
How the assemly line Works
The assembly line is a manufacturing method that divides the jobs to different people that takes less time and makes the product cheaper to the public. The workers repeat one step doing what ever needs to be done. It is for the division of labor because it breaks up the hard steps into small individual steps. It also helps that the two same products actually look the same. They use interchangeable parts so the normal public can repair their vehicles or whatever it is. The conveyor belt helped move the product to places faster. The assembly line helped unskilled workers preform jobs. But know there is robots that can do the same thing for cheap.
