A moving assembly line is a manufacturing process in which a product is assembled in a sequential manner as it moves along a conveyor system. Workers or machines perform specific tasks at designated stations, allowing for increased efficiency and reduced production time. This method, popularized by Henry Ford in the early 20th century, revolutionized mass production by streamlining workflows and minimizing handling time. It is widely used in industries such as automotive and electronics.
1901
The official definition for the term assembly line is "a series of workers and machines in a factory by which a succession of identical items is progressively assembled."
Workers stationed at a moving track to attach parts are typically referred to as line assemblers or assembly line workers. Their main task is to assemble components or parts as they move along the conveyor belt or moving track in a factory setting.

Mass production and the moving assembly line.
Moving assembly line. do your homework yourself!
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.
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.
That is called an assembly line.
