The origins of conveyor belts can be traced back to the late 18th century. In 1795, the first conveyor belt was created for use in a flour mill. However, it wasn’t until the early 20th century that conveyor belts gained widespread popularity, especially in automotive assembly lines. Henry Ford famously incorporated them into his production processes, which significantly reduced the time it took to manufacture vehicles. This innovation not only revolutionized the automotive industry but also set a precedent for other sectors to adopt conveyor systems as a standard practice.
