    Excellent system, I would not get bored as quickly building a whole machine, but I would in an assembly line.

    No way this can beat assembly line productivity.

    With 50 products they can't have 50 lines so i see the point. That would be the most important thing to emphasize. Lastly, motivated employees and competitive market sound like irrelevant subjects.

    For hitech quality goods, this thing might work. However, I would put a chair around the employe.

    interesting mix. I would have thought that having multiple workstations would be better, as you would be able to increase the throughput rate, reduce idle equipment, and reduce training costs. Is this actually cost-effective for the company?

    This seems pretty unbelievable. Sure the computer goes through it all step by step but how can they possibly outpace a industrial machine like Foxconn? It just doesn't seem feasible
