Good to see my sector at work (Cybertruck Stamping) being shown to the public like this for the first time. Been an operator on the Hot Press for a while now.
And this is just the beginning
Thanks for your great work in helping produce an incredible vehicle. I’m curious though, can you say or do you what type 3xx of SS is used in stamping the inner door panels? Clearly, it’s not the same as the HFS outer skin. I totally understand if you cannot say anything though.
Thank you for being part of such an inspirational vehicle and company.
Crazy, what you are doing there, my greatest respect, I worked with stainless steel for over 20 years.
I'm kinda jealous.
Thank you for your service to humanity.
This place ain’t no joke, these are serious machines making serious trucks. Thank you SpaceX for your contributions.
CYBERTRUCK=FIRST GENERATION HONDA RIDGELINE IT'S A POOR DESIGN THE CAB AND BED BEING ONE PIECE=CRAPPY DESIGN SECOND GENERATION HONDA RIDGELINE UNIBODY ON FRAME IS FAR MORE UNIQUE THAN ONE PIECE BED/CAB UNIBODY WITH SOME CRAPPY BOLTED ON GIGACASTINGS WITH INFERIOR TOWING RANGE AT THAT
Aging [75] Canadian man here. My specialty before retiring was designing/manufacturing electronic instruments for the geophysics community. Tiny production volumes, mostly hand assembly, but high value. Here I see the flip side of modern tech - high volume providing max manufacturing efficiency to make cost-effective vehicles for the masses. Great to be alive to see this! Many thanks to Mr. Munro & his team. We live in a time of true miracles.
The only miracle is that God came down to save us from hell in human form. Jesus Christ is God
Good thing you retired! 😂
You mean thanks to Elon and Tesla team
A $100k 3 ton pick up truck isn't exactly what I'd call a "vehicle for the masses"
@@GeneralKenobi69420*semantics
This is insane, Sandy being given access to this is a blessing for all of us.
he sucked elons dick just long enough. what a blessing!
What other manufacturer would allow Sandy Monro this level of access?
This is exactly the right thing for Tesla to do .
There are experts out there that they can hire, but who would pay them to create a new, or improve upon the already used processes which costs money, and time, AND new machines which costs money also big time. Tesla is one of the FEW in the world that does this and they are not a manufacturer of parts. They are a Car company which is different from all the other car companies. Tesla is a Tech Company which can create a new manufacturing processes or methods. All of this is EXPENSIVE which others are afraid to do, but Tesla does it.
@@1flash3571In a long term all of this research and developent and pushing techologies will pay of with huge numbers. And Tesla is playing the longest game while even smashing the short game🎉
We saw nothing. Two guys hand stacking panels, 1922!
@@1flash3571it’s impressive for sure, but we only know about it because Tesla is public about everything. Who’s to say there aren’t others doing equally impressive things? BMW’s carbon fiber i3 frame was just as groundbreaking, so was Toyota/Lexus’ carbon loom for the LFA (now used for other parts). And this was over a decade ago.
. @GlitterGuru Why did BMW stop with the i3 manufacturing methods and materials? Because they were a dead end and not fit for mass manufacturing at cost. Same goes for Audi A2. Also brilliantly ahead of its time with the full aluminium body. They all lack execution at scale and the will to drive innovation in manufacturing to the point where Tesla has gotten with it, sadly.
One of your best videos I have seen of a manufacturing plant. The factory is so clean and pristine. Sandy got unprecedented access to the most advanced auto manufacturing plant in the world. Mind blowing!
Once the vehicle is outside it is a dust storm. That will change as the construction site gets finished. They do wash the vehciels before they are driving on to carriers.
This plant is pretty typical for a Japanese auto plant.
The Porsche construction factory is practically a hospital. Everyone looks like they're going to a crime scene, booties, hair nets, soft white coveralls. It seems like overkill, but if you're going to do it, do it right, right!
@@rollingstone70 No Japanese auto plant is cold working ss, laser blanking it and then air bending it...
@@boostavno Japanese plant would use thick ass stainless sheet for car parts. Why? Carbon steel sheet in structure is stronger and lighter. It is completely unnecessary. Cyber truck is $100k pointless truck. A vanity vehicle for the top 5%. No one in Kansas or Iowa is going to buy this truck. I think the Cybertruck plant will go the way of Airbus’s A-380 plant. Great engineering achievement but will cease production due to lack of demand.
For all the 10 years that I have been working in Japan as an engineer with electronic manufacturers, I never could see more than a second of an assembly line. This tour is just so deep and amazing! Thanks!
The respect given to Sandy by the entire Tesla team is amazing to watch… great job guys!
with the amount of free publicity and butt kissing he is doing, they are happy to spend their time with him. Its not respect, its sales
@@idolshrubs2728-_-
Haha! Wow!!
Qeeeeèeèeèeeeeee@@oggyoggy1299
Treating a paid advertiser with "respect" is what's really happening here. Who the fuck is this Sandy guy anyway and what credibility does he lend to this auto? I would be much more impressed if the thing was given to people who needed their minds changed before liking it.
I’m loving this series, gives my How It’s Made vibes. Makes me appreciate Tesla and the Cybertruck all the more. Thanks Sandy.
Been following this channel since very beginning.
Oooft, the level of access has gone through the roof!
This is an astounding level of access from Tesla here.
Brave new World.
Thanks for watching!
Yeah, it's like Koenigsegg. We don't mind showing you, because you couldn't copy us if you tried
Is it just me or is this an unprecedented level of openness?
Not really, there are lots of automotive factory tours.
The best show ever for this old tinner. So much insight on how Tesla is working with stainless steel. My experience with 304 and 316 SS taught me that it's really tough on the tools. Love the innovative solutions that Tesla uses. Thanks Sandy.
I love how freaking smart, competent, and articulate Lars is, indeed the entire Tesla leadership team.
Also, this was great Munro content. Sandy did more listening and little talking, let the experts speak. The video of the process was splendid. TH-cam Gem Quality.
Yes, exactly my thoughts
Lars is very much smart, competent and articulate and MODEST no arrogance here. Btw love the Tesla Vest but even more so the safety helmet. So cool .
Such a contrast to the other guy whose name we didn't have a chance to hear. But you can clearly see, who's living at the plant and who's a talking head
@@InformedKiwi Suggested Lars put copies of that Hard Hat for sale in the Tesla Shop
@@cathyk9197Hard-hat looks like the ones SpaceX gave the workers at Starbase.
So cool that Munro is a key player in exposing a vehicle to the world that I believe he always wanted to see, and that he truly loves
Sandy has given Elon many tips - constructive criticism - over the years on improving their products, many of which have been implemented. I imagine that Elon told the Cybertruck crew, "Okay guys, I'm sending Sandy Munro to you guys today. Show him everything he wants to see. Impress him. But most importantly, _listen_ to what he says."
@@JustWasted3HoursHere it's so cool to see their relationship benefit each other - and for us to be able to take a back seat in it all
Exposing is the wrong word nigga
EV VEHICLES ARE *FINNISHED*
WILL BE REPLACED BY HYDROGEN VEHICLES
@@David-zl3bi First, the CT could be EV, Hydrogen, even freakin' ICE if they wanted, so what does your comment have to do with anything on this video? Second, to use hydrogen is *SO* much much less efficient, it just makes most hydrogen applications a non starter. There will be, (actually already is in some areas) some applications for hydrogen, but in the mainstream vehicle market no, won't happen.
16:15 is the best moment of this entire awesome video. Love Sandy's reaction, "This is aluminum-bronze?!?! And you can stamp with it?!" Great stuff.
can you explain the situation happened there
@@kateebameer5477 aluminum and bronze are both very soft metals so he's surprised u can mold these hard steel panels with it :)
And he’s right too - that die won’t hold up. Which means every time it’s used, the result degrades. Not very encouraging.
@@ssnoc It sounded like it was just an aluminium bronze coating on the die. If not, that's what they should be doing.
Sandy has his doubts, listen to his tone of voice and statement again
I thought the episode with the engineers was going to be tough to top, but this one is even better. It’s awesome to see the inside of the factory and how things are done. Can’t wait for the next one.
I can’t believe the amount of access that Tesla affords to Sandy. What a great relationship! Thanks to Tesla and thanks to Sandy for another great tour! Amazing technology!
It's marketing you fing wank.
I’m not sure how to break this to you but Sandy owns Tesla stock….like legit not an index fund common single stock. Of course he’s going to say great stuff about Tesla, of course because it’s his money involved. And yes I know he did initially say bad things about QC
Other people would call it free advertisement 😂
@@Jkeys-ov1mw disregarding the stock comment, but do you have anything against what you have seen here? Seriously?
Do you even realize how far behind other manufacturers are?
Go have a look, and you will find better appreciation for this.
If one of the foremost experts in the world, who had initially criticized their manufacturing, ends up being so blown away by their manufacturing that he goes all-in on the stock… what does that say about the company?
teslas transparency is as refreshing as it is unprecedented.
they are 100% confident nobody can do that. And they are right
@@michalsalaj And Tesla WANTS others to follow their leadership, because it supports their mission: to accelerate the transition to sustainable energy
Amazing that Tesla has opened it all out to Sandy (he does not have to do a tear down!). And so uplifting to watch the enthusiasm of the people who work there. That is an beautiful factory! ❤
This is SUPER interesting to see. I love to see new techniques employed and challenges met. The US used to much more about this and it's great to see it still happens somewhere -outside of the defense contractors. Big thanks to Tesla and Sandy for showing this. I've briefly worked as a laser and press brake operator and love to see state-of-the-art processes.
I have to admit it's fun to see Sandy speechless.
I love a guy who has as much experience as him. He was undeniably impressed.
He just takes it in, quietly processes what he's seeing and hearing. This is why we all rely on Sandy!
Agreed , i think he was speechless most of the time because he'd never seen or heard of some of the processes that Tesla has either invented or improvised. Once Sandy has gathered his thoughts after this and the coming walk through series, i think we will can look forward to an explosion of praise and admiration.
I am no Sandie but I have seen countless videos of car parts being fabricated but NONE had micron level precision, red hot stamping, all stainless steel construction on one floor and shown in side of 30 minutes. I know that they are truly only limited by the batteries at this point and again that is also a matter of time.
I think he is speechless, cos he knovs how to do something, but time after time he see somethng different and stupidly "easyer". Most genious things looks easy and you thinking "why everyone dont do it?".
Admitting ya come from Ford, shows not exactly knowing what you are doing. ford has the highest recall of any maker around the world. so much for more plastic snaps...clueless
That is totally true, but how well does a financial advisor improve your profit? What is the experience like using an advisor?
What I learned:
1.8 and 1.4mm thick exterior panels (not 3mm)
The entire door shell is stainless. No rusty door seams, ever!
Door rings are powder coated. And made of boron steel.
Bent panels are not scored. Outer door panels handle 75% of the crash load (that sounds like exoskeleton to me).
It's kinda impressive they got it to be so strong that they went from 3mm to 1.8 and 1.4, makes you wonder how strong would 5 or 10 mm be.
@@-JustHuman-
As mentioned, you couldn't bend the radius without cracking at 5mm.
And, dropping to 1.8 for the doors/ 1.4 for other sections effectively halves the volume of HFS and therefore the weight.
@@rogerstarkey5390 Not about bending it, just how strong it is. There are more ways you could form the sheet, like a laser cut bend or hydro forming it.
I believe the 5mm refers to the radius of the bend, not the thickness of the material.
As a Tesla customer and investor based in the UK I really appreciate seeing this level of detail and the willingness of the Tesla team to share it. I was concerned the CT production capability still had some way to go, but I can see what stage you're at and I remain impressed.
So awesome to get to see a tour of the factory with people who actually know how to answer questions; as well as someone to ask good ones.
Oh my God! Gives a lot of insight into why prototypes are easy, but production is hard! All the massive equipment required to make this stuff in large numbers is truly mind blowing.
Makes us appreciate why CT was 4 years in the making. So many problems to solve and techniques to invent.
Prototyping is not easy either lol
@@jamesbizs- it's a relative things.
There are doubtless dozens, probably hundreds, and possibly thousands of shops in the U.S. that could make a decent prototype.
There's only a handful of shops that can do mass manufacturing on this scale.
I blown away that all of this was accomplished in only 4 short years. I was shocked to hear that the doors inner shell is also made from SS. I Love watching manufacturing!
@@aussie_alit actually didn't take 4. They designed the truck twice. The first one was to big and musk didn't like it and made them redesign the entire thing again a bit smaller. Pretty crazy that they got it together so fast when you take that into consideration
All I can say is WOW! This is some of the best PR Tesla has ever done IMO.
Agreed but the problem is that there are still millions of potential buyers who don't know what a Tesla or CT is. Hopefully that will turn around quickly and they can ramp quickly.
@@aussie_al No point attracting more customers until you have the production to meet the demand. Tesla has been production-constrained until now with the 3 and Y. Cybertruck will be too, for years to come.
This is just absolutely unreal! I used to work in an aluminum foundry up north and just watching this is like seeing WAY into the future from what I used to see and within heat treatment plants. Wish it was possible to see this in person for tours. Can't wait to put my hands on my own cybertruck! I'm in absolute awe at the technology and specs of accuracy here! Well done!
Hats of to them really. They made quite a tough life for themselves with the choice of material, but they've found a way to make it work. EDIT TO ADD: Plate and sheet levelling (cold levelling) can be quite tricky to get right. The key is to even out all the internal stresses so that when you cut or bend, things don't spring out into different positions/shapes. Don't want to be taking out the laser head just as the cut finishes! (seen it happen). This requires the levelling machines to be set correctly of course (which can be a bit of a black-art to some people) but also maintenance of the machines is key. I've worked in some steel mills where they simply are chasing their tails all the time because the kit is not treated well or maintained right. So it will be interesting to see how much sheet they have to throw away because levelling didn't quite work and how they can maintain the performance over time (its all great when stuff is new!). Do we know who makes the cold levelling machine?
Interesting that they were able to come down from 2.3 mm ish to 1.4 mm sheet. That is the problem with going for flat surfaces, you don't get the benefit of stamping shapes into it add rigidity. For example, some high-strength mild-steel body panels for are only 0.65mm (though 0.8 mm is a more typical number). Very flimsy sounding, but if you can stamp a pattern in it its OK.
Smartest move tesla made touring Sandy through. The legacy companies are jaws dropped right now, bet...
One of the reasons other manufacturers cut production targets for 2024 in half.
you can imagine everyone of them is watching this
And a couple of thousand extra job applicants of ambitious young people. With next to zero advertising costs.
I'm German and I love what I see there being done in Austin, Texas. Well done 👍🏾, really. The equipment that has been invested in makes my guess easy that Cybertruck won't be the last of its kind coming from this factory, it's just the beginning !!!
This tour is free and perfect advertising.
Thank you Sandy and thank you to all the Tesla workers who stayed late to demo it for us!
The camera operator is exceptional. Smooth, slow movements that allow us time to take in what we’re seeing. Versus fast swing shots. Well done
Thanks
I am truly grateful to have been able to visit parts of the Giga factory with Sandy. Way to go, Sandy.
We would love to hear Sandy's thought at length once he processed all these info for himself.
Good idea!
@@MunroLive Really sad that Cory missed this opportunity to see a real car company under the covers. Unfortunately he chose to go elsewhere to a company which will soon be belly up. Shame
@@aussie_alHe’ll end up at Ford I think.
Lucid needs a tub of help, maybe Cory can help them. Sandy will take Cory back anyway.
@wadafruit it's my understanding that Cory went to Lucid. What was he thinking FFS ???
Finally, we get to see a ramp-up of new manufacturing tech as it happens. Everyone in the video has worked intensely and smiled with pride at this world's first accomplishment...
Awesome to see Sandy get to go to his style of Disney World and see behind the scenes. Well deserved to a guy who's come a long way, its great to see him getting such exclusive access. Keep it real Sandy!
OMG, just OMG! 🤯
I had imagined the air bender was some kind of super humongous complicated press. Tesla manufacturing solutions are so elegant and straightforward. The best part is no part. The best process is no process.
No risk of any Legacy OEM catching up! Engineers run the company - not lawyers, accountants, and business majors! New materials, new processes! Micron precision! Robots! Incredible planning! And very competent and nice people working together!
You left out unions.
It’s how Porsche used to be before the take over, they touted being ran by engineers and not accountants.
@@jasonengland2357Also Boeing, before McDonald Douglas.........
you know from where Schuler, Kuka, Triumpf has it's HQ? All high quality Production technology comes from Germany. they even use item profiles. for a new building it looks dirty.
Sandy has had such amazing access to the Cybertruck process that the teardown is almost going to be redundant 😮
Exactly my thoughts.
Exactly my thoughts.
I sense Tesla gave him the deep tour because he wouldn’t understand or appreciate some of what he was looking at, or the process that makes the parts. Saved the life of a CT and we learned more.
This is amazing! I was looking forward to seeing the air-bending of the HFS. It's definitely a lot simpler process than I thought it was going to be.
Yeah , thought the same. Was expecting a bigger tool , doing all the bends in one hit. Removing the plate and turning it and then rebending introduces the possibility of having tighter tolerances and repeatability issues. But yes it's simpler and cheaper to do the way there doing it.
Tesla is really not afraid of the competition. “Make sure you get the camera in there!” They know just how hard it was to create. No way legacy could replicate this.
This video will definitely open many people's eyes to the amount of effort and love that actually went into cybertruck. Thank you as always Munro team for bringing high quality videos.
i think these morons of teslaq and others dont want to see it or just don't get it. But we can be happy to see it!
It feels like Tesla is the only American company building for the future. The engineers at Tesla are really world class and you can tell just by looking at their workspace and listening to their passion.
Don't forget SpaceX.
Don't forget Sandy trashing their panel gaps 😅
LOL what. They don’t even have union workers. They are paid poorly. GM and Ford have things in a better direction.
Other non legacy (but much smaller)voem's. Lucid, Rivian etc. In Canada there is Edison and others also
They are in a way lower league - you can't compare them to Tesla's lingering might.@@idrisddraig2
I love how Sandy is holding himself together and not giggling like a school girl the whole time! This is amazing to see a process before it's fully automated. I hope he gets to go back in a year or more to see it basically put one together without people manually moving parts around. Hell by then we may have tesla robots doing the work in between!
Special thanks to all involved to make this happen. All the people that stayed late! The innovation, teamwork and pride... Amazing, truly next level!!!
What a wonderful time to be alive and have the privilege of seeing top notch engineering and production . I’m now 67 , but this is so inspiring for me and hopefully any young artisan or mech engineering student - huge thanks to all 👍
I watched this twice which is rare for me. I’m impressed with the simplicity of the manufacturing process of which “experts” said would be impossible. Well done Lars, Rich, Elon and the whole Tesla team. Thank you Sandy for giving us a glimpse of the new standard in manufacturing.
Except it didn't show a completely manufactured Cyberjunk, which is the whole point of an assembly line.
Stay tuned. This disrespect is noted.
Reducing the complex to the simple is what's hard.
It's simple because it's a simple design. When there are no curves, just bends things get a lot simpler.
@@user-mc5wc6od8m You clearly missed the title of this video, didn't you? :D
They will show more later. this was just one vid.
A SS inner door structure AND a SS 1.8mm door skin? Holy crap, this truck should last 100 + years!!!
Nobody, I mean nobody could have pulled this off except Tesla. The engineers must be super proud of the work they have done using the first principles approach to engineering.
Huge props to Tesla, the Workers, and Elon on this one. No other manufacturer would let you in like these while they are still developing the process. 'We're a relatively open book, if you can do it better, go for it.'
"Utilization is usually 45%" "Well, Yeah, if You are bad at what You are doing." - savage
Amazing that Tesla is so far ahead they're not even afraid to show all this to potential competitors because they know they have the lead that can't be caught..
Exactly!
They make it look easy but it’s not. A ton of work and $$ went into this. It seems it’s paid off.
Far ahead? I don't understand what that means.
Everything to help humanity become multi planetary .
Lol it’s not even about being far ahead. No one else is even planning on doing this. That’s why he doesn’t care. He can get more costumers out of showing off the production, than he’d lose from competition stealing ideas.
The company that made the machines are the geniuses.
good machines are needed. Teslat quality when it comes to assembling the body has been lousy
and they don't seem to have any follow-up checks because they release cars that should never have left the factory
this does not make a good impression on Tesla's quality
Two. Thumbs up to Sandy Monroe for the incredible level of technical detail, he is bringing to us to see. I'm very impressed with what Tesla is doing here. They even developed their own steel alloy to get the right characteristics they wanted!
Exclusive and best of coverage always here with Munro... Cheers!
Much appreciated!
... you can also clearly see how much love the Tesla production team has for producing these things at ridiculously high quality standards. It's not just a job for them, it's passion and pride. Sandy is clearly blown away by what they are pulling off.
Is his helmet the equivalent of the gold storm trooper armor? 😂
For the looks😂
Gotta know who the boss is 😂
you know it
"And over here is our All Terrain Armored Transport prototype. We call it an AT-AT for short."
Lars is great he's my favorite. I've seen him in several videos I really like they way he delivers the content.
Absolutely wild how much access Tesla allows. These guys are truly bringing the whole industry (kicking and screaming, in many cases) along with them. Love it.
Production is hard. Breathtaking how this plant has come together in such a short time, and having to visualize, plan, design, build, assemble, test, document, train and execute. This is a pure example of why Tesla is unstoppable and will not be beat for a time. Great job.
Best. Video. To. Date. Well done sir - insanely cool to have Tesla allow anyone to see this stuff.
If I understood correctly, the door inners are made of the same material, just thinner so it can be stamped while hot. And then just not painted. Laser welded with enough precision not to make marks on the outside. Tiny imperfections on the inside fixed with another laser. It is all frickin laserbeams! No chemicals, no water, no solvents, no paint, no internal steel beam to resist side impact placed exactly where the crash test hits, no door handle. Just door. Tough door. Corrosion resistant door. The end. Chef's kiss, or whatever the engineering equivalent is!
They are not made of the same finished material. They are made of SS but not HFS SS.
@@AntaniusX That would make sense, but I wouldn't put it past Tesla to have formulated another special steel (optimal for hot stamping) just for this.
Just amazing! When I was a young buck in 1985, saw a prototype machine that assembled radiators for Harris radiator. It had rfid tags for each radiator to track the product, it was 150ft long and capped to and bottom ends to the cores, pressure tested the radiator in about 38secs. We thought this was amazing in those days. What Tesla is doing in 40 second cycle time laser welding door structures /assemblies and other factory automation is phenomenal! Thanks Sandy and Munro Live
Talk about next level manufacturing. The future really does look like the future
That was a very impressive tour. Thanks for the video!
You bet!
You know that they are showing cool stuff when sandy is quiet and soaking in the experience.
This is freakin' amazing. Mad props to Tesla for letting us see (although I suspect it's really about recruiting engineering talent) and to Munro bringing this to us.
Wow-very cool to see how this works. Thanks to you guys at Tesla for letting Sandy bring this to us!
Brilliant. Munro knocking it out of the park again. Can't wait for the full CyberTruck teardown, 🎉
I mean, at this point it is a reverse teardown. 😇
No need for a teardown of body
sandy i am amazed at the access you were granted! Impressive. Tesla never fails to amaze
So cool to walk through the factory and see the production methods.
*WOW! Sandy has gone down the rabbit hole!
What stood out to me was how few people there were attending those machines. Tesla is closing in on perfecting the alien dreadnought concept.
I could see Optimus filling in some spots in the future
They were filming during an idle shift.
@@PygKLB There wont be that many more with all those machines doing most of the work. Only few places where the workers place the pressed parts onto a laser welding station and anywhere they have to handle the parts manually is where you would see the most of the people working.
Would you be willing to pay the price if production was limited to human speeds. You saw what it took just to move parts a few feet using two human power. Can't have your cake and eat it too. Tesla is bringing you tomorrow's technology today. There are better, safer things for humans to do.
I used to work in metal stamps years ago and there used to be oil and grease all over the place. I love how clean it is there.
This is DOPE 🤯🤯🤯 congrats to the Muro team that has worked their way through to be able to get this level of access and insight 👏👏👏
That factory is mind blowing!!!
Woah. More content. Super cool of Lars to show you around the factory!
How many years have we been waiting to see this stuff... and wow it does not disappoint.
Mind blowing commitment, skill and determination.
Thanks to all involved.
and they pulled together during COVID... just saying
Flat body panels with a couple of bends are mind-blowing?
@@theflew Yes, because no one else can do it. Not with the hardness of the stainless steel that Tesla is using that is. 14:48 26:40
That Texas Tesla hard hat is something else. Tesla should sell those!
Seeing the level of engineering required to produce the CT as well as the enthusiasm of the employees makes me want the truck that much more. Can't wait! The Foundation Series should be arriving in a few months... giddy!! :)
Sandy, this is likely my favorite video you have ever posted so far. What an amazing factory. This truck is no joke!!
Yeah me too , really liked the video.
Thank you very much sandy for showing us this amazing factory.
You’re a very special person to be granted access to such a high profile operation .
Great to see the inside of the factory, with Sandy as the guide! Thank you so much, Sandy, and everybody at Tesla. You are my hero.
I actually think Dan the stamping Guy was the most impressive here. He knew his brief, had a brilliant attitude, and was keen to ask Sandy if he had any questions. Top bloke Dan👍👍👏👏
MY family and I had a tours in several auto manufacturers in the US like Ford, Honda, Toyota, BMW all of them prohibits you to take a pictures or videos inside thier plant. Meanwhile, TESLA is sharing thier techniques on how to build a magnificent EVs to all these long time players.....and they are still behind TESLA. BRAVO TESLA BRAVO👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I feel like the other manufacturers don't actually have anything innovative enough to hide from the naked eye; they're just piecing cars together in the same old way. Nothing to be proud of or top secret.
Agree, you are not allowed to make any picture of their ancient technology demonstrating they have zero innovation intentions. This type of culture will simply be washed away
Seeing this level engineering, I'm betting the OEM's C-suite sphincters are puckered. As you pointed out in the video, Tesla is maximizing the equipment ROI and the line's not even breaking a sweat speedwise, with room to get under a minute. It's genius Elon gave you this level of access, shot's fired!
Can not wait to see the next video!
I think a lot of the other OEM's are laughing at how overly complicated this line is!!! Don't get me wrong it's incredibly impressive, but super complicated and hard to see how this will scale. 150 stampings before reworking?! Laser cut panels?
@@Gr0gansm1th I disagree. We saw 6 machines which weren't running anywhere near capacity. Plus, no paint shop. Paint shops alone are more complex than what was shown on the tour.
I've never seen Sandy so quiet 😄 That was a lot of information to take in and process!
It is just astonishing that we can get to see all the workings and with such knowledgeable people. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Wow! Another impressive video by Sandy Munro/Munro Live! These are some of the billion dollar questions that makes everyone scratch their heads trying to figure out how it was done! Tesla is still at least 10 to 15 years ahead of legacy automakers.1.8mm stainless steel is very impressive!
Epic tour for engineers and machinists! Great job recruiting tour for Tesla!
This was an incredible video. I wish it kept going! Love Munro and Tesla. ❤
The CT build system is amazing in the sheer number of manufacturing innovations needed to build it. Tesla must be an engineers paradise while the legacy makers worship accountants.
Is it weird that the hair on my arms stood up when they showed the 5-axis laser cutter rotating around a central point in mid air? Holy crap. What an amazing piece of manufacturing technology! I guess my spidey-sense nerd-alert went way off the charts on that one.
Seriously an insane amount of access. I loved the worker comment we are ready for full production. I worked at Toyota Georgetown and the difference is amazing. The place is amazingly clean. Thank you Elon.
Regardless of what you might think about the looks of the CT you have to appreciate and respect the levels of manufacturing and engineering that went into developing it and I have much respect for the Tesla employees. Truly next level manufacturing!
My thoughts exactly.
I had and still have no interest in ever owning one of these things.
But I often admire when someone takes a different approach to the design and manufacturing of something.
Basically every advanced machine in that building is made in Germany/EU.
Just saying
Oh so much respect.
Boy, the ad was the best part!
Brilliant insight into the still early days of building the CT! All the new tech which had to be designed & developed in only four years, is just incredible!
That Tesla signed off on this video being published, shows that they think they are running faster than anybody else and in the right direction 😂
Such a project would have bankrupted other companies. Tesla took huge risk and is showing off, how far ahead they are.....
@@user-hq8lb1yv9k agreed. Tesla is almost doing open development here. Very few patent lawyers and PR people required
Incredible coverage and thanks to Tesla for sharing!
Absolutely mesmerizing. I’m blown away that all of the design, new techniques, tooling, engineering, etc. was completed in only five short years. NOBODY but Tesla could have pulled this off.
the secret is all technology that to make this happen comes from germany. when you see Schuler presses or Triump Laser there is no other option when you want quality.
unprecedented access! Great job Sandy and team.
Thank you kindly!
Looks like where Steve Austen was Built, we have the technology We have the know how, we can build a bionic scrambler meat wagon
@@nathanthomas8184 Wait till we see the line to build Optimus Bots!
The Machine that talks about the Machine that builds the Machine. Munro is the man! Love this stuff!
Thanks Sandy for posting your Cybertruck factory tour. I am now even more convinced of the engineering talents at Tesla are the best in the industry. Lars Moravy is an amazing engineer. :) Learned a lot from this video and vicariously toured the factory. Please keep it coming
Sandy is the man, nobody else would be able to bring this content to us, thank you so much, I can't wait to get my CT.
Dreamy voice: "Magnificent..." 🤩 The Elon interview (in front of the Cybertruck in pieces) makes so much more sense now. These are all the things we "boys and girls" were screaming at the screen to ask Elon about, but you did it right: Show, don't tell! All the thumbs up!
