Summary
AO Smith Corporation of Milwaukee Wisconsin designed and successfully employed an automatic factory to manufacture automotive frames. This image shows the automatic devices used to rivet the frames (adding cross arms to the rails, etc.)
The almost fully-automatic assembly line became known as the "mechanical marvel." It went into operation in 1921. It was designated a Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark by ASME in 1979.
Photo prior to 1923.
