No.

Completed covers would come in from one supplier; seat foam from another.

They would be added to the seat frame in a remote area of the plant (called the "Cushion Room"), due to fire concerns, and then conveyed to the trim line in sequence with the build.

Using this process there is no location where the cover, the foam and a sewing machine would be together in the same place.
