The Canadian Ford Company has ` Spent
Over a Million Dollars on New Equipment
Since the eginning- of W
To increase the efficiency and the capacity of the Ford
Canadian plant and its service stations -to produce
even a better car at a lower cost of manufacture, thus
to sell at a lower price, the Ford Canadian executives
have put ever a million dollars into new equipment
since August, 1914.
That this expenditure has been made since war began
indicates most emphatically the unquestionable belief
of the Canadian Ford Company in the present and future
prosperity of Canada and the triumph of the Empire.•
• In fact the Ford Canadian executives are so firmly con-
vinced of this that they are governing the entire policy
of a great ten million dollar Canadian Company in
accordance with this belief.
Since the beginning of war they have spent approx-
imately a million and three-quarters in new buildings,
twice reduced the price of the car by $60 ($120 in all)
and reduced the price of spare parts $147 per car -all
in addition to this million dollars worth of new equip-
ment. •
But, in turn, it has been this new equipment that has
been responsible in,great part for these reductions in
prices. Marvelous ew labor saving machinery installed
in the recently enlarged two -acre machine shop has
effected big savings in cost of manufacture.
]?or instance three drill presses that formerly were
used to turn out 600 parts a day, now have been sup-
planted by three punch pressen that turn out 3000 parts
a day, and there is absolutely no sacrifice in quality of
work.
At a cost of $40,000 three truly wonderful milling
machines were installed that mill 48 Ford engine cylin-
ders at•onee with perfect accuracy.
Perhaps the most wonderful of all are the new gear
cutting machines that are a source of amazement to
these acquainted with gear cutting methods in vogue
serveral years ago. Then there were only two or three
shops on the eontinent where gear cutting could be done
at all and it was a slow and most exacting process. But
in the Ford Canadian plant there are no less than 46
wonderful automatic gear cutting maehines that turn
out gears cut absolutely perfect in one -twentieth the
time without the touch of human hands except for
putting in the blank and taking out the finished gear.
Wheir the machine has finished the work it notifies the
operator by. ringing a bell. One roan can operate
two or three of these machines, a fact which gives some
indication of the grout saving in labor thatAhle,new
equipment has made possible and which also plays a
very important part in reducing the manufacturing cost
and the selling price of Ford cars.
Again, think of the great saving in labor, as well as
time, effected by the remarkable Ford drilling machine
that bores 45 holes in a cylinder casting in four directions
at a single turn. .
Do not assume from this, however, that the number
of employees has been decreased. On the contrary, the
Ford staff has been increased by 900 men sinde war
began. Furthermore when the present Ford schedule
of wages went into effect in April 1915, the wages of these
employees were increased $50,000 a month.
If it were not for the exceedingly substantial economies
made possible by this new equipment, it can be readily
understood that the price of the Forkcar, built as it is
today of the finest materials procurable, would be•very
much higher.
No firm that did not have the immense quantity pro••
duction of the Canadian Ford plant could possibly
afford to instals such equipment as this and consequently
could not sell a car as good as the Ford at anywhere near
the Ford prices.
In addition to the equipment told of above new engines
were installed in the power plant at Ford, Ontario -650
horse power gas engines specially designed by Ford
Engineers.
Also the four new Ford Branch buildings at 1,2ontreal;
Toronto, London' and Winnipeg, each of them as large
as many automobile factories, had to be furnished with
machinery and appliances. Each one of these branches
is so thoroughly equipped as to be able to build a Ford
car complete. Each one forms n still further perfection
in the already unrivalled Ford. Service to Ford owners.
• And the feet cannot be overlooked that a policy that
dictated the e•:peliditure of such a great sum of cold
cash duri;i5• the progress of the war must have been
prompted by a very plactieul and sincere belief in
Canada's, prosperity -in her future and in her people.
