Honda använder robotar och skalar bort 40 minuters monteringstid per bil.

The new factory is in Yorii, nestled in rolling green foothills just north of Tokyo as part of Honda’s Saitama assembly complex. It is equipped with Honda’s most advanced manufacturing machines and equipment. It boasts nine automated production processes, compared with just one at the nearby 50-year old Sayama plant.

The production systems makes heavy use of robotics, which are used to install instrument panels, seats, tires and suspension systems. High-speed welding robots make the car body frames, advanced hemming machines shape doors and hoods, and streamlined stamping lines also employ cutting-edge technology.
