Fabrication of automobile parts at the Ford factory Rouge River plant in Dearborn Michigan

At beginning, film shows a man feeding a bar of steel into a cutter. On the opposite side, a man handles the cut pieces. Next a man (unseen) uses a tong to move a hot piece of steel from a small furnace. He places it into a form where a machine then presses it to produce curved part. The operator (hands seen only) uses tongs to place the part into another machine that shapes it into a disk. The operator (now seen) uses tongs to put the disk into another machine that hot stamps it into finer shape. The man holds it for a closeup by the camera. Next, the same part is held by the man after further machining. It now has nine holes around its circumference. The part is then processed in a gear cutter and shown in closeup as a finished bevel gear.
