“…In contrast, the toy tab is dependent on the Underbody and the sub-assemblies of the front and rear. So, by this, we can say that BIW consists of both independent and dependent process flow [18], [19].…”

“…Under Body: -Under Body assembly, majorly consists of 3 parts that are the front floor, rear floor and engine compartment this will make a platform for the entire BIW and each component is assembled on the Underbody [18], [19]. And the type chassis that we are taking into the consideration for the entire layout is a monocoque chassis, where we will not find and ladder structure to assemble the BIW [18], [19]. So, in our analysis of monocoque chassis, the Underbody will act as a basic structural frame to assemble the components [18], [19].…”

“…This inner panels will also be housing the guideways for the electrical lining. In contrast, the outer panels will be like smooth finished work without any penetrations on them [18], [19]. This panel assembly will mainly have the pillars of the Automobile like A pillar, B pillar, and C pillar according to the design of the Automobile this pillar may vary [18], [19].…”

This panel assembly will mainly have the pillars of the Automobile like A pillar, B pillar, and C pillar according to the design of the Automobile this pillar may vary [18], [19]. This side panel assembly will be directly going to the framing process, and this assembly might have some buffer time to it because the framing is dependent on the toy tab [18], [19].…”

The Automobile is the most complex product, and the development of a vehicle will take years of Research and Development (R&D) starting from designing, analyzing the product structure from sub-levels, building prototypes, testing the prototypes, finalizing the vehicle to manufacture. It is also essential to find the correct suppliers to manufacture the components, parts for the vehicle, assembly of all these to the vehicle, and go through examination and analysis of various stages of the processes in building the vehicle, and it is a herculean task. With the increase in competitiveness in the Automobile industry, the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM’s) want to reduce their investments in manufacturing, keeping core competencies of R&D within the industry, and outsourcing remaining functionaries to Tire companies. The main goal of this paper is to illustrate the step by a step manufacturing process that is needed to produce an Automobile. And explaining each step that takes the Automobile from sheet metal to complete product, this helps to understand the process chain, logistical and distribution network that an Automobile follows throughout its Product Life Cycle (PLC)
