He was important to modernizing the US industrial capacity. He was also the founder of the Ford company and father of the moving assembly line.
No, he didn't. Ransome E. Olds invented the first assembly line. However, Henry Ford did create the first MOVING assembly line by adding conveyor belts to Old's model.
Henry Ford invented the assembly-line method of production
Henry Ford did not invent the assembly line. The modern assembly line and its basic concept is credited to Ransome Olds, who used it to build the first mass-produced automobile, the Oldsmobile Curved Dash, beginning in 1901.

Henry Ford invented the automobile I believe this answer is inaccurate. Ford invented the assembly line mode of production. I'm sorry but I don't know who invented the automobile. Henry Ford invented the MOVING assembly line. Karl F. Benz is credited with building the first gasoline powered vehicle in 1865-86.

Yes, he invented it and perfected it. Ford 'invented' and perfected the moving assembly line. Therefore increasing production and keeping costs down by having employees stay in one place. Assembling a vehicle one piece at a time instead one vehicle at a time. Ransom Olds is credited with inventing the assembly line.
Henry ford did not invent cars, he invented a line of free-moving vehicles that did not need horses to pull it, it involved engines that were never before seen by the human eye.a ford
That's what I'm trying to figure out!! But I looked up who invented the assembly line, and apparently Ransom E. Olds invented the assembly line in 1901. But the assembly line was "popularized" by the Ford Motor Company in 1908. Hope this helps :)
The united States. It was invented by Henry Ford
Ransom E. Olds mass produced his "Curved Dash" Oldsmobile on an assembly line in 1901. Henry Ford mass produced his "Model T" Ford on a moving assembly line in 1908.
