| Abstract(E) | In the second-generation fuel cell system, Honda successfully established a scalable high-volume manufacturing system for fuel cell systems. By consolidating production engineering expertise cultivated through previous in-house models development, Honda launched its first mass production of fuel cells in North America. Key innovations—such as the consolidation of electrode rolls into 2 rolls, integration of MEA manufacturing processes, and complete automation of cell stack assembly—enabled substantial labor reduction, improved utilization of high-cost materials, and the shift away from operator-dependent processes. These achievements transformed the manufacturing capability into a robust production platform designed for future business expansion. |
