Some interesting notes,
the bumper covers are IMP at the facility (woulda expected perhaps a sub-contractor for that but perhaps it's cheaper to bring that inhouse)
the paint robots now are totally covered in plastic sheeting, I always wondered about why other painting robots were not covered

 

Thanks for posting. I'm always fascinated to see these modern assembly lines in action. The car looks pretty good too!

 

^ Yeah, I'm always interested with modern car assembly

 

Thanks for sharing. It's fascinating to see how cars are built now. The robots are crazy....I would love to spend a few hours at facility where they are making cars

 

Same here, I'd love to tour and watch all the operations at work. A former colleague worked at Audi with their SAP S/W which was termed "God" in that it ran the whole operation.
The whole lower cradle concept for drivetrain/suspension for uni-bodies has really changed how much simpler it is to assemble cars from Ferrari to minivans.

 

Perhaps it's changed since Covid, but I believe you formerly were able to sign up for a high level plant tour of the Marysville facility. I was tempted to do it once while there, but didn't have the time. Instead, we just toured the Honda museum there, which itself has some pretty cool cars/motorcycles. They also had demos of a couple of stages of the production process.

 

I went to Marysville and took the full tour (over an hour in the assembly plant) and it was an awesome experience. I hope to do it again if Honda conducts them in the future.
