车间 (chē jiān): workshop

My father has worked in the workshop of a car manufacturing plant for twenty years, dealing with machines every day.

In order to finish the order before the Spring Festival, the workers in this workshop work in three shifts, and the machines run 24 hours a day.

Before entering the workshop, all visitors must put on safety helmets and goggles to prevent accidents.

This factory has introduced automated equipment; the workshop is no longer as crowded and noisy as before, and only a few technicians are needed to watch the screens.

The workshop supervisor makes a round every morning to check whether the production line is running normally and to remind the workers to pay attention to safety.
