The assembly line was one of the key components of the Industrial Revolution. The principles of the assembly line allowed manufacturers to produce greatly increased amounts of products at lower cost and indirectly made for easier maintenance of products after their assembly.
Not only does division of labor allow automobiles to be assembled more quickly and efficiently, it also allows them to be manufactured more cheaply. Henry Ford's improvements to the assembly line system allowed cars to be made for a price that allowed the average American to hit the open road. In turn, American society was revolutionized as travel became more popular and widespread.
