POMS Ford Explorer Manufacturing
The Ford Explorer, one of the most popular mid-size SUVs in the world, has been a key product in Ford’s lineup since its introduction in 1990. As the automotive industry has evolved, so has the manufacturing process behind this iconic vehicle.
The first step in manufacturing any vehicle, including the Ford Explorer, begins with the design and engineering phase. Ford engineers and designers use advanced software tools, such as CAD (Computer-Aided Design) systems, to create detailed digital models of the vehicle. During this phase, engineers analyze every aspect of the vehicle’s design, including aerodynamics, safety features, fuel efficiency, and performance.
Once the design is finalized, the manufacturing process shifts to material sourcing. The Ford Explorer is made from a wide variety of materials, including high-strength steel, aluminum, plastic, and glass. Ford sources these materials from suppliers around the world, with a focus on quality, cost efficiency, and sustainability.
