With more than 11,000 employees, the Mercedes-Benz plant in Wörth is the largest truck factory in the world. Every day more than 400 fully roadworthy trucks run off the line here. From Wörth am Rhein they are exported all over the world - sometimes even via the factory-owned container port. The report accompanies the development of a Tractor Actros - from the first drawings of the designers, the work steps in the engine plant in Mannheim to the final assembly of the truck in Wörth.

To me, this is better than watching a BlockBuster Movie!
I agree man
Thank you so much for uploading these docs. I can watch these for hours!
My last Truck was an Actross, before I retired. It was the Best, most comfortable to drive and fuel efficient vehicle I had ever owned. Reliability was a must for me, and my Actross never once let me down. I can't praise it enough.
The level of efficiency brings a tear to my eye, i wish my job had that level of efficiency
"You want me to say So-called 62 times?....Done!"
I love that the background music is a clear knockoff of the main theme from the movie "The Rock"
Do they still make the Uni-Mog?
My great grandfather started working at Mack Trucks in Allentown Pa. around 1904 when Mack moved from New York, he was one of the original dozen or so employees in Allentown and worked as a tool and die maker, he worked there until shortly after WWII. His son , my grand father, started in 1926 and worked on the bus line for a year ( the bodies of the buses were made of wood then) and then he worked as a foreman for 39 additional years until he retired in 1966. One of the stories my grand father told me was how they built the trucks that were being shipped overseas, mostly to South America, and that they disassembled them before shipping. When i asked why they did this he said that when they shipped the trucks disassembled they were considered :"truck parts" and not trucks, therefore they wouldn't have to pay various tariffs or taxes that were imposed on fully assembled trucks. When I saw in the video that they were were shipping: "CKD" crates of disassembled trucks I remembered that conversation and I'm assuming they do this for the same reason. As a side note during the 1980's I had few tours of the then modern Mack Truck assembly plant in Macungie Pa. while they were building fire trucks for my volunteer fire department. At the time, when they built that plant, it had a few of the innovative processes in that plant as shown in this video, mainly the robotic parts distribution system, I'm pretty sure there wasn't a single robot in the rest of the plant. Also at that time Mack used the :"just in time" delivery system for bringing parts to the plant to cut down on the need for warehouse space for parts. I must say that the producers of this documentary should be given the highest award there is for such productions, it was perfect! Just saying...
If only Boeing could figure these processes out.
Yes that is team work
Engine!
To please our fanbase, we concentrate 75% of this video on the painting process. And won't mention the tons weight of these huge engines and transmissions and auxiliaries in order that the "knowledgeable" critics of electric trucks don't begin thinking.
Electric trucks are a fantasy.
People who really know about trucks realize that the total propulsion system weight in a diesel truck is less than the weight of the battery in an electric truck.
@andyharman3022 reliable reference please? Everyone knows that 2,000 lb more is acknowledged and allowed for. You appear to be either unaware of that or claiming that diesel drives are significantly lighter than that, highly doubtful. The numbers ive done using actual mfgrs specs come in just 2,000 lb less than batteries.
@@lengould9262 2000 pounds? Are you talking about semi trucks or pickup trucks?
The "knowledgeable" critics of electric trucks ignore the existence of trains...
Electric propulsion is fantastic, it's the energy generation and storage you should be arguing about
If Germans and Japanese worked together to create a diesel engine the thing would last forever. Owners would just buy a new model vehicle without the engine and transfer theirs into the new one.
We already saw once how well the German and Japanese actually work together: not well.
It is not in the manufacturers best interest to make engines or other parts that last too long, or 'forever'. They need to keep busy,
"In any system of energy, Control is what consumes energy the most.
No energy store holds enough energy to extract an amount of energy equal to the total energy it stores.
No system of energy can deliver sum useful energy in excess of the total energy put into constructing it.
This universal truth applies to all systems.
Energy, like time, flows from past to future" (2017).
So, if you slow down the speed one notch the video is less annoying, albeit longer.

Really!? The robots reduce the "burden" for employees? Well I guess in a way that's true. If the robot replaces ten employees, that's ten employees not working at that plant and burdening themselves with a paycheck.

If this was filmed in the last two years, why are they still exporting CKD kits to Russia?
@@MrStevecrasher Not quite 2 years ago (although we're only a few days from that now). If done in late 2021 or January 2022 there were no sanctions with Russia.
@@MrStevecrasher GO RUSSIA!
To bad it isnt BEVs!
Peterbilt > Merc
How old is the movie? Why do you deliver to Russia???
GO RUSSIA!
Referance to an engine as a motor is an unprofessional error. Electric motor / gasoline or diesel engine. Not the end of the world, easy to get it right!
Germans always call it a motor, always have.
No one has ever called motor racing, engine racing. And its not just Germans that use the word motor frequently.
@@darrylhorne1256 hey its kelly, thanks for that clarification
@@MrStevecrasher Hello, its Kelly here, thanks for the correction. That updates my knowledge when using the term "motor"
funny thing is that the people who invented combustion engines, Nikolaus Otto in Germany for the gasoline engine and Rudolf Diesel in France for the Diesel engine called it Motor all along- yet somehow in the English language it was switched to engine at some point for combustion units and motor for electric units.
You’re showing this in America no one knows what a football pitch is if you’re talking about a football field say it because you’re a football pictures they don’t exist over here in the United States. We have soccer football hockey baseball. We don’t have those so-called footballs that you call over thereuse English
If this dude calls technology magic one more time I'm going to find out who he is and show him what a ritual looks like 🫠

Don't buy China truck..
