The Canaolan Ford. Company has Spent
Over a Million Dollars on New Equipment
Since the Beginning of War
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 (:xecutives
have put over 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-
- winced 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 redactions in
prices. Marvelous new labor saving machinery installed
in the recently enlarged two -acre machine shop has
effected big savings in cost of manufacture.
For instance three drill presses that formerly were
used to turn out 600 parts a day, now have boon
sup-
planted by three punch presses that tutu out 3
OUOn ar
is
it day, and there is absolutely no sacrifice inualii: of ..
q y
work.
At a cost of $40,000 three truly wonderful milling
machines were installed that mill 48 Ford engine cylim•
dere at once with perfect accuracy.
Perhaps the most wonderful nderful o
fall are
the new
gear
cuttingi
machines
that are a source of amazement to
those acquainted with gear cutting methocltl in vogue
serveral years ago. 'Then there were only two or three
shops on the continent where gear cutting could be dote
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 euttilig maehinea that turn
out gears tut absolutely perfect in one -twentieth the
time without the touch of human hands except for
f
putting n the blank and taking out the finirhod gots.
When the machine has finished the work It notifies the
operator by ringing a bell. One man can operate
two or three of these machines, a fact which gives some
indication of the great saving in labor that this new
equipment has made possible and which also plays a
very it: portant part in reducing the manufacturing cost
and the selling price of Ford cam.
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 wince war
began. Furthermore when the present Ford schedule
of wages went into effect in Apri11916, the wages of these
employees wero increased $50,000 a month.
If it were not for the exceedingly substantial economies]
