Ford says it will be able to manufacture 50,000 ventilators by July 4. It's
retooling a plant in Michigan, which is set to begin operations on Monday.
Last month, Ford Motor Co. announced plans to build simple medical
ventilators, with a goal of producing 50,000 of the devices over the next
three months.
NPR's Rachel Martin checked in with Adrian Price, Ford's director of global
core engineering for vehicle manufacturing, for an update on those plans. He
said Ford should be able to make its target by July 4.
NPR: We've known for a while that mid-April would be the peak of the virus,
and the specific Ford plant that you're going to reopen to make ventilators
in Michigan isn't open yet, right?
Ford: No, actually, our team has been working round the clock to retool that
facility [in Ypsilanti, Mich.]. First of all, to make it safe for our
employees in this environment. And then secondly, to get all the station
facilities in place, the medical oxygen supplies that we need. In fact, our
team of facilities engineers, who are used to retooling facilities to make
all new cars and trucks, are out there right now building that facility —
and as an example, putting together an oxygen supply tank farm. They started
from the ground up and had the thing finished and complete in 10 hours. | C**********e
