31 déc. 1812 - Lowell Factories/Factory System of 1813
Description:
The Lowell System was a labor production model invented by Francis Cabot Lowell in Massachusetts in the 19th century.The system was designed so that every step of the manufacturing process was done under one roof and the work was performed by young adult women instead of children or young men.
The Lowell System, which is also sometimes called the Waltham-Lowell System, was first used in the Waltham and Lowell textile mills during the industrial revolution.
This model was so successful that Lowell’s business associates expanded and opened numerous textile mills in Massachusetts using this model.
