Today we did a tour of TOYOTA plant in Nagoya. Toyota has several plants in Japan; the one we visited called Motomachi where they produce three main models: Crown, Mark X and Estima. The plant tour was exciting; we were able to see the welding and assembly process of the cars. The welding process is made by robots that weld about 400 body parts to form a car. The latest welding line can handle multiple models on a single line and produce precisely finished car bodies. As for the assembly process, engines, wheels and other body parts are installed. After being fully assembled, vehicles are tested and verified in the final inspection before being shipped. After the plant visit, we visited the Toyota showroom where we saw the latest car models (Crown, Toyota, Lexus…) and innovations (robots) of Toyota.
