The Rise of Australia

Arthur was dumbfounded. He had forgotten that cars are all handmade now. The relative labor cost and time cost will make the car very expensive.

The price of relatively ordinary cars on the market is generally as high as hundreds of pounds, and the price of a car with relatively advanced performance like the Victor Dea is nearly two hundred pounds.

A car costs much more than that. Because every part of a hand-built car has major or minor differences, this also leads to a significant increase in the cost and time of repairing the car.

Precisely because it is hand-made, the stability of the car is not very good, and problems may even occur every three days.

Due to various factors, the cost of a car is far more than the selling price. This is also the reason why the potential of automobiles has far exceeded that of horse-drawn carriages, but it is still not popular all over the world.

"Mr. Benz, I know a new way of car production that may be able to solve the problems of car production cost and construction time." Arthur looked at the two people who looked disappointed and said with a smile.

"Really? Your Highness, what is the method?" Sure enough, the two people who were still in a low mood suddenly became energetic and asked Arthur impatiently.

"Both of you, your current production method is to have a team build a car together, right?" Arthur did not answer directly, but asked his own question.

"Of course, Your Highness. Only when several workers who are familiar with each other form a team to build a car together, with the blessing of tacit understanding, can the production time and error rate of the car be reduced." Benz nodded matter-of-factly and answered road.

"So, why don't we try to take apart a complete car?" Arthur asked with a smile: "A complete car can be split into multiple parts, doors, wheels, body, engine, etc. Wait for the module. Each person is only responsible for one part of it, just like running water, from one end of the production line to the other, isn't it good to complete the assembly of a car bit by bit?"

Because there is no concept of assembly line production yet, Arthur can only use specific descriptions to summarize this statement.

But it was obvious that both men quickly grasped the assembly line method and were frowning as they considered its role and advantages.

"Split a complete car into many modules?" Benz frowned and thought. After a while, Benz looked at Diesel with excitement, and saw the equally excited Diesel giving the same look. gaze.

"If one person only completes one module, it will not only increase the speed of car assembly, but also reduce the error rate in parts production and car assembly. My God, Your Highness, this is really a genius idea. Thank you, this idea is completely It can save the automobile market, and it can even be transferred to other industries." Benz said to Arthur with excitement.

This is indeed the case. The assembly line production technology invented by Ford has been applied to all walks of life.

The discovery of this technology also greatly increased the production speed of the machinery industry. It not only promoted the popularization of automobiles and market expansion, but also made huge contributions to other industries around the world.

"If possible, I hope that the automobile factory can be modified according to this theory. If the assembly line production method can be used to speed up the production of automobiles and reduce the cost of automobiles, then our automobile factory will be the leader in developing the world's automobile market ." Arthur nodded slightly and said with a smile.

It is obvious that both Benz and Diesel have been attracted by the assembly line theory proposed by Arthur.

If the experiment on the new car had not been completed, the two of them might have been eager to start the renovation of the factory.

However, expectations are expectations, and the experiments that new cars should have should not be missed.

It is the culmination of Benz and Diesel's existing knowledge and is arguably the most advanced car in the world.

The two are still very confident about the experiment of new cars.

The current vehicle inspection technology is also relatively rudimentary. It mainly tests the maximum speed and stability of the vehicle at a constant speed, as well as the failure rate on some more complex road sections.

In terms of speed, due to the use of a powerful diesel engine, the top speed of the new car is very satisfactory, and it can reach a terrifying speed of more than 80 and nearly 90 kilometers.

The figures obtained for constant speed driving are also very attractive. The new car is fully capable of driving at a speed of 40 kilometers per hour until the fuel tank is empty, a process that takes more than seven hours.

Although this number is nothing compared to the cars of later generations, at the stage when cars were just born, this was a number that no one could dare to imagine.

You know, the most commonly used small means of transportation in Europe is still horse-drawn carriages. The average speed of a horse-drawn carriage is only a dozen kilometers. Any faster will cause severe bumps and even vehicle crashes and deaths.

The speed of cars born now is generally in the range of twenty to thirty kilometers per hour. First, cars are still in the exploratory stage, and most people are not familiar with this emerging thing. This also leads to a reduction in car speed in disguise, because most people cannot adapt to excessive speeds.

Secondly, the frequent failure rate of existing cars also means that the car cannot drive too fast.

There are often times when the car's fuel tank is less than half full, and the car has already broken down and cannot move.

Against this background, the car developed by Benz and Diesel can have a maximum speed of nearly ninety kilometers and can travel at a constant speed of forty kilometers per hour for nearly seven hours.

Throwing away the production cost and construction time, the performance of such a car can be fully put into the market, and even the Model T car will not compromise on its performance.

After reading the first two speed tests, Arthur, Benz and Diesel were very satisfied.

As for the subsequent stability and failure rate tests, since they require long-term testing on different road sections, they can only be conducted on another day.

But based on the first two tests alone, the performance of the new car is fully qualified and meets Arthur's expectations for cars of this era.

Now it depends on whether Benz and Diesel can successfully master the theory of assembly lines and reconstruct their respective factories.

Once the transformation is completed, Arthur's car will be one step ahead of the Model T, laying out and planning the world's automobile market in advance.

Thinking of this, Arthur looked at Diesel and Benz and said with a smile: "Mr. Diesel, Mr. Benz. I am very satisfied with this car. I hope you can work out a specific assembly line production method as soon as possible. Renovate your factory. Once you can successfully reduce the production cost and construction time of cars, you will all be Australia's heroes."
