BIW framing is a main assembly process in the Body Shop, using an automated system to assemble body parts into a BIW. Challenges include high investment, model or product lifecycle changes, and multiple or mixed models on a single line. The current trend is towards flexibility, with a shift from dedicated model to multiple models in framing systems.
