Im working also in a big company in Stuttgart Germany we make parts for engine for Audi,Bmw and more Apprentice ship with 40 people lots cncs and grinders.
Working in manufacturing is a horrible thing, you cannot work your ass off standing all day, it's great to work in air conditioned software industry like google or Microsoft, which makes you rich, poor guys only work in manufacturing
@@TITANSofCNC ,Manufacturing industries are very capital intensive industry, requires more time, effort and patience, no body knows the output of worthy efforts in future, like how covid 19 lock down have affected manufacturing industry no workers only software companies gave WFH with fully salaried, pretty flexible and more happy, sitting in home earning thousands of dollars, more over point is that manufacturing cannot compromise or pay you lucarctive as finance, banking or software companies provide, as that would hit their profit margins.

@@tejaamuthuraam2458 ...you make a very valid point ....which this titan salesman is NOT going to mention. CNC machining is NOT demanding or challenging, once the setup is completed. "140 cnc machines" showed very few people around. 140 conventional machines would have been jammed pack with TRADES PEOPLE ....JOURNEYMEN MACHINISTS. These shops have minimal journeymen .....and a fair volume of "SETUP PEOPLE" ....who need only training in fundamental part changing. The FMS machines need even less than this ......BUT THIS SALESMAN HAS MENTIONED NOTHING ABOUT THIS FACT. Just a lot of HOT AIR .....and of course the SMILING and HAND-SHAKING/FIST BUMPING. For a JOURNEYMAN machinist, this company does not offer much. This kind of company would be horrible for someone looking to make things and be involved. There are only a small number of people being regularly challenged. .
Glad to see a CEO who knows what he's talking about and leading from the front....from tools to machining processes to tolerances etc....German engineering at its best....would love to walk through that shop.....
Lots of machines and a minimal supporting labour group ....keeping costs down. Nothing mentioned about this in the video. Apprentices are paid low compared with journeymen. .
This is usually the standard at high end German manufacturers. At Hermle for example, even the salespeople has to go through an apprenticeship where you wrench on the machines!
@@taxicamel well, this is 2022 and not 1902. What do you expect? Lol If you try to do mass manufacturing without automation, you are bound to fail. Even if you are doing it in China where labor is cheaper.
and Im actually glad to hear an CEO of an international corporate being able to speak fluent English without any crazy amount of German accent. There are so many CEOs holding international press conferences and you have a hard time to understand a single word.
We need more Titan videos. As a German I should add that we also need to bring manufacturing back. Our industry has been very keen on outsourcing production to other EU and non-EU countries. It starts with the identity and our core competences. Time to get that back, especially in the minds of the general public.
Yea bring it back, bring it back right now. Made in Germany should be made in Germany and not just designed in Germany. Und wie im Video erwähnt, die Firmen sollten wieder ihre Produktion im Zentrum haben. Alles was wir in den Händen halten können, muss produziert werden und das sind die Wurzeln von unserem Wohlstand. Die produzierende Hand muss unbedingt wieder Respekt in der Gesellschaft und in der Geschäftswelt haben. Btw. Bin selber in einer Firma als CNC/ CAM Fachkraft hier in Bayern/Deutschland tätig und auch unsere Firma hat eine Fertigung in China.... Dieser tägliche Kampf gegen Preise ist frustrierend, aber bei der Qualität, da ist es genau andersrum. Blöd halt, das auf allen Produkten der Firmenname steht... Zeitenwende sollte auch in den Köpfen der Chefetage stattfinden.
@@marcelbrieg3581 ja aber ich glaube das ist der beste Mittelweg. Ne stammfertigung in Deutschland und dann das ein oder andere werk außerhalb. Deutschland als Produktionsstandort ist halt teuer aber so kann man wettbewerbsfähig bleiben und weiter in Deutschland fertigen
Im mostly impressed by the way they "calculate", as a businessman my self i see that they do calculate everything into pricing... machines, amortisation, research and development financing and.. they even calculated the "education" of the new generation into it! those are all "long time calculations" on a 10-15 year basis. Thats why companies survive.. and get even promoted due to young people having a nice apprenticeship.. they have so many young people, which are trained on their own machines, so they start with top performance even at 20yrs old! amazing operational accounting in all aspects!
get them when they are young, give them the tools and knowledge and experience to become masters of their craft, support them whatever the state of the economy, because machines can be bought and sold, but your trained employees can't. You depend on these people as the bedrock of your operation and your company can only scale with the amount of quality employees you have.
but we still have far too few young skilled workers in Germany. So if you want to work in Germany, take the chance! Germans are very nice to people from other countries, especially if they want to work here!
Yes its a great system, and happens in so many profesion not only machining. They start with a company, make a apentoship contract between them, get payed monthly and atent special shools and work at learn at the company the same time. Duration is between 3 to 3.5 years. At final they have to make a test in theory and praktic work, if passed, they own the title in this profesion and are real profecionals you can count on in their field. Perfect trained, perfect educated, perfect knowledge. Just outstanding... They are the pros you want in your company working for you. Germany education system in this handy profesion is unique and a outstanding sucess. This is what makes the German industrie so powerfull! I do not know something similar happening in other countries up to now.
I'm American, and I work at the Ohio plant for a German auto parts manufacturer and have been lucky enough to be one of the first four students in an American adaptation of the German apprenticeship program. It is simply amazing and I hope this spreads more into the world as it's a highly effective way to learn.
German precision manufacturing is the greatest industry to work in ! Working nearly 6 years in the trade, completed the dual-system apprentice as a tool maker in 2016 and now being head- lathe operator besides my boss. (Ok, honeastly, we are only 6 workers) Turning crazy stainless parts, bar-feeder automated parts at incredible speed and hitting an 8,090mm diameter in Hasteloy with a tolerance of only 8µm (Microns). So much experience gained and so much to be gained in the future. CNC-Maching is so awesome and fascinating - Love this trade - Greetings from Germany

@@davidcheung8595 double check yourself too lol 😂 different parts of the world use different decimal points, just like how they have different date formatting.
Absolutely incredible, as a CNC instructor it's been extremely difficult to get full classes going. Granted our program is 12 weeks and not 3.5 years but its fully funded. I feel like they pulled the trades out of schools and pushed college onto high schoolers when the trades are a more realistic approach for many teenagers. Honestly I wish I had known sooner how satisfying a career in machining could be now I'm trying to inspire a new generation who has no idea that there's a career path for them that doesn't involve 4 years of college.
It feels really weird for me as well, i hear so many dropouts say that they didnt know what they wanted but had to choose in less time than that. 12 weeks (or even months) to get a stable trade education in the general direction that you're interested in is awesome. Figuring out what precisely you want while on a stable income and under minimal stress..... I sort of had that luxury by already working night and i saw so many of my friends stressed into bad decisions and uni debt.
Too bad you haven't explained where you are in your schooling system. I have no idea what a "fully-funded 12 week course" is. What age are you talking? "High schoolers" are typically only exposed to a variety of trades ......IF THEY CHOOSE TO SIGN UP. Wood, metal, electrical, plumbing, drawing ....and perhaps some other areas are presented for short periods throughout one year. THEN people graduate and those that have chosen go to an apprenticeship course, go specifically to the field of their choice. This is a formal program of specific years and of specific training, which is often coordinated with industry. This is what happens in Canada ....in very general terms. You did NOT provide much of an explanation ....more like general rhetoric. .
The First 12 weeks of German apprenticeship is to File an U-Steel to perfect 90° Angle and flatness. After that, maybe Drilling some holes on the Drillpress.....
That was an amazing video - I was an apprentice toolmaker for Laepple in Ireland which was a German Company so was lucky to complete the German program, got to compete in the world skills competition and went on to be a CNC machinist and now a mechanical engineer in medical devices for a german company based in the US. German Engineering - BOOM
Thanks Titan for bringing and explaining the German apprenticeship program to the world, which is the most important base pillar of German manufacturing and engineering!!! Thank you Titan!
The commitment and the mindset in south Germany's engineering companies is just awesome... and most are still family businesses ! The amount of knowledge and expertise is just breathtaking, Arburg, Festo, Hermle, Trumpf, ZF, and many, many more...(not to mention the automotive industry), no area in the world has so much engineering knowledge concentrated in a relatively small place !
As a technician, I'm always amazed when I walk into a shop with white floors, walls, and everything has its own spot. And its almost like the whole shop glows.
The shop cleanliness is incredible. I've been in places where the air is full of coolant mist, dried coolant coats everything, dark, dirty dingy, oil resistant boots start sliding, epoxy coating is peeled up and worn out. My tools need to be wiped down at the end of the day. It's amazing when management puts some money into keeping the thing that makes money nice. I've been in some nicer facilities and the difference in the employees attitudes is night and day too. I know the employees get the work done, well done management on doing right by your employees, facilities and buildings!
I was surprised to mention Brazil. I'm from Brazil and I've been working with CNC Machines for 20 years. I love what I do and will spend the rest of my life doing stuff! "Boom"
I am proud to work in this industry for almost 10 years now. Still at the same company where I made my apprenticeship. Nowadays I work on a EMCO Hyperturn 65 Powermill, creat all kinds of stuff from spare and ware parts, equipment for production and assembly to parts which are in early development. From time to time even parts for customers. Even though others design those parts, even I as a machinist can bring in my own ideas. After almost quitting my apprenticeship I'm proud of what I become in such a underrated industry
It is the best video that I ever seen.I just cry all over the time of the video.They have the biggest company that I ever seen and I wish a just CNC machine.good luck to you and good luck to Haimer.😭😭😭😭😭
Watching this has refuelled me. As a teacher of Engineering by choice I research non stop as there aren’t good programs in Jamaica 🇯🇲 where I live for CNC machining. Seeing those guys operate those lathes and mills somehow gave me a sense of hope for my own program. I now feel rejuvenated to press on for the betterment of my country through machining. Thanks guys.
@@SAXONWARLORD1000AD we do have CNC machines (too few) but non in the high school program or tertiary for that matter. I am actively trying to raise funds to change that
Worked on a custom made 10 million dollar German machine that had over 50 motors & hundreds of air solenoids & little air pistons. Every hole was dead on and built like a Sherman tank. Was lucky to work with 4 German techs & a electrician for two months assembling this machine. They had a maybe 20 year old apprentice that could weld & run our Bridgeports, lathes, etc better then our guys who were twice his age.
This is what leadership and company culture looks like. Your people will die for you (not literally) if you show them you care for them. In the Aerospace shop we owned, we personally greeted every employee every day. In 25 years, thru good times and bad, we never laid off a one no matter if it hurt the company or not. We grew to be a highly respected business in our realm. If it wasn't good for our employees, it wasn't good for our company. Paid us back as owners in spades. But mostly in pride. Kudos to the Heimer family, an example of a fine and highly respected company.
I just started in the manufacturing industry about 8 months ago and I’m completely addicted to the amount of knowledge I come home with every night. I Cnc parts for fracking in the oil and gas field using haas 5-axis vertical mills. Love your videos and it pushes me to better my self and to learn more🤙🏻
@@Oldtimer_Prototyp yes very inspirational! In our Country, the bigger capitalist and conglomerates ate every niche and pushing the SME's to the corner and stop at nothing...
@@metalextras Unfortunately, small companies are finding it harder and harder to find people and buy resources as they become more and more expensive. I hope the situation will improve at some point again

If we talk actual production - r&d within enginering and cnc, it actually even predates the WW2. They the german always impress me when it comes down to manufacturing quality and its cool to see these new generations flourish the ever search towards perfection, as perfection never can be reach but to always strive for it is what makes the difference. I love these videos! Cheers from Sweden 🇸🇪 to Titan CNC 🇺🇸 .
Thanks from a German. Sweedish Engineering is also great! We should stop outsourcing our work and knowledge to Countrys in the Asia Region an bring Manufacturing back to Europe/US
Cheers, mate, from SWEDEN 🇸🇪! As a young boy, i ask my Grand Pa: "What separates Germany(the people) from other Countries? Where's the difference?" He said to me: "Michael, short answer: May be, in other countries the people are working to live... Here, in Germany, the people are living to work... That could be the difference..." Only to get things done is not enough... Your inner attitude toward things is what counts... You should love your profession deeply in your heart. BUT: In a globalised world, however, that's increasingly not enough. The fight become to be harder and harder. Ancient companies have already died because intellectual property was simply stolen in parts of a company that produced in China... Many employees, peoples, entire families, Grand Pa's, Fathers, Sons, Grandsons are loosing her jobs... That's it, what's going on today in this world, where WE ALL living in... Do you know, Do you feel what i mean?... Greatings from old Germany, from an old man, working in this industry since allmost 42 years... Still standing strong... 😉 😎 👍
@@QuantumWaveMaster I agree, i dont want to disrespect the hard working people of China working for little to no money in these factories, but i blame the establishment and the boards for outsourcing so much to Asia. A company should be staying in the nation it was started and if outsourcing it should be for the sales nothing else. A little sidestory, i recently bought a pair of clutch and throttle cables for my motorcycle from a famous american company that is well reputated, when i got the cables it said made in Taiwan and China, i took to the email and asked the manufacture, that i thought the products were 100% made in USA, and he told me they are made to our specs but in these countries. I was disapointed.
@@mikebrown41182 Hi, mate! I TOTALY agree you opinion! I know this big ol' proud american motorcycle company... (me as a Biker and YAMAHA Fan) The profit drove them to China... AND they wanted to circumvent the European Embargo (punitive tariffs)... It's a dirty game they play in this world... ONLY profit counts... NOT the people... Not the pure chinese workers, not the families, not the history of old european companies ... The FAST GLOBAL generated money counts...
My Apprenticeship back in the late 60's and early 70's in the UK, was for 5 years, one day a week was spent at Technical College and 4 days on the tools, learning the hand skills that live with you all your life. Great work you are doing Titan, engineering forgot to train the next generation, they didn't see the need as they would get all their manufacturing made abroad and we can see today how that turned out.

@@Kspice9000 Thank you, but teaching is all about communication and the internet maximises that. You still need to learn the hand skills and that comes with experience but todays machinists need a lot of technical information that can be taught via the internet. In my day, the machines I used were all used by hand and that could not be learnt by text books, but todays CNC's are a technical marvel, that I have been proud to have experienced from day one
Madness, what a company. I know Haimer and have worked with the tools myself - I am also a cutting machine operator and have also completed a state-certified technician. I often wish I could just stand at the machines again and get out of the office. Production like this makes every machinist's heart beat faster. It's nice to see that there are still companies in Germany that you can be proud of. Very nice insight.
So inspiring! I’m not even a machinist but I can appreciate the accuracy, perfection, attention to detail and “can do” attitude. Attributes important to any business on earth!
I had the pleasure of visiting the HAIMER central 2 years ago - inspiring Plant-tour - and I know that I will be working on this equipments- I saw the quality with my own eyes.
Amazing trip and very inspiring! Everything you say about taking pride in the industry is truth. Titan, start up your apprenticeship program and I'm there! Your passion about this trade is insane. Much love and gratitude

Grew up in a machine shop, at 45 years old after watching the industry slowly fade I was forced to take a job doing something I’m not meant to do. You said it perfectly, We need to embrace manufacturing, teach it, respect it, take pride in it.
beautiful ! I used to work for konigmetals a german company i woked at their waterloo ON location for many years. I have the most respesct for Germany and their whole manufacturing evolution. they are hardcore and they dont F*#$ around PERIOD. i lived it i know.Germany is HARDCORE
I did an apprenticeship as an Industrial Mechanic in Germany and I studied in the UK. After my studies, I returned to Germany. I am working as an Accountant full-time and as an Industrial mechanic part-time. I am a Greek with American and German background I would say that Germany gives a lot of opportunities to young people. If someone has a motivation, he can achieve everything in Germany. The manufacturing in Germany has proven how the country stable is. The main priorities would be to restore back production to Germany and to attract more people back to the trades.

I had the opportunity, &went to Germany/,Poland, 07 Different work environments. All positive owners to employees . Thanks Tiatin for your luv of CNC , ☆☆☆☆☆!! Jeff in Virginia
Btw, little known fun fact Titan, Made in Germany came from victrorian england and it started as a warning, at that time we were just copying British engineering, it was what cheaply made in china is today, but after some time that was getting on our nerves, so we improved and the warning made in germany slowly shifted from a warning to the sign of superior quality.
Only at halfway through my german engineering degree i began to understand why the german engineering is so famous. Its not because of our engineers. Its because we have really skilled workers. Masters of their craft. I worked in manufacturing/industrial engineering some time ago, mostly optimization of all kinds. The best ideas always came from the shopfloor. Sometimes there is resentment between shopfloor and engineering, I think both "sides" should talk more with each other. Manufacturing has to understand that their primary goal is making products, engineers have to understand their job is to serve manufacturing by making the job safer, lighter or more efficient.
Titan Ive been machining for a year and have decided to get my degree in precision machining. I love the industry, nothing more satisfying than hitting tight tolerances

It is normal and natural to greet the guest with honor, the flag of his home country belongs of course. Welcoming your visitor respectfully shows seriousness and professionalism.
One difference one can see between old-school companies you see in Germany and many companies you see in the US is represented in that "in the company for 20+ years" moment. It's still pretty common here that you start your career in the same company that you end it in - and that makes you value your own work completely different. If you expect to leave company after 2-5 years, you might be motivated to do a good job and keep your job as long as possible, but you will never feel like it's YOUR company that you are a part of. You don't think in terms of "I want this place to be better in 10-20 years" and you rarely think "let me learn EVERYTHING there is to learn and become a great asset for the company in long terms".

Most of the things that have made in germany sign are of outstanding quality. We had a 3d taster from Haimer in our cnc shop very impressive tool. Set-up was much faster than using spring loaded edge locators, it was like that for a month all good cheers, till a guy spinned it at 7000 RPM destroying it beyond repair. My boss has ever since told us he's not gonna buy a new one because we aren't prepared for that technology...
My Callipers in my apprentice years where also from Mittutoyo, i think its the industry standart here. They make really good stuff and they definety know what they are doing.
german apprenticeship here from augsburg as a cnc machine operator, at first i only got into it because i couldnt find anything else. After a whole year i started to grow interest actually and now realize what a cool job this is. And yes, in germany its getting more and more popular, even for the women, and you titan are also a big reason why i started to like this job.
That was a beautiful video to watch, man! I'm 66 and retired, but I always wanted to learn this trade. You have to start young, but I'd surely would love to learn this process even at my age. I love the European way of thinking when it touches the educational aspect of it. I always believed that working in shoulder with a master craftsman is the way to go. Awesome job man!
Big manufacturer. Hard to take it all in as fast as your video tour was. Beautiful parts everywhere and all the metal outside wow. I could see the dollar signs coming in and going out. Great video.

America needs to bring back apprenticeships. Manufacturing has been unbelievably amazing to me over the last 30 years. I started in high school working at shops and going to vo-tech, got into CNC service, then sales, and have since gone on to work for some of the worlds leading machine tool companies, many of which are shown in this video. None if it would have been possible without those early opportunities in the trade and the people who cared enough to give me a chance and mentor me.
How does it even work? In Germany for most jobs you need between 2.5 and 3.5 years otherwise you need to study or work unlearned stuff which pays very bad
@@srck4035 That is why it's important to start the apprenticeship in high school when money is not important. American schools are largely focused on academics and college prep, and the trades are not well supported. In fact they are often looked down on by schools. This is why America has a huge skills gap in the trades and STEM. Too much academics and not enough real world.

@@_PJB_ No knock but are they really academic? Going to a shitty college and learning nothing but how to party and you can easily get 6 figures by being sociable as a salesman.

There's a reason fine engineering products usually come out of smaller countries. Everything else being equal, career choices are made based on compensation.

I think it's fantastic that they have a full in-house paid apprenticeship program AND they start their apprentices on manual machines. I think that learning manual machining well can only help to build a more solid foundation of machining knowledge to build your machinist career on, even if you never touch a manual machine again after completing the apprenticeship.

Thanks, Titan, for the cool vid!!! Um, I believe why German Co.s are so popular/reknownwed is because most big Co.s are family owned, and have been for a long time. Sure there is a heirarcy, but the families are commited to keeping their Firms together, treating coworkers as equals. Yes, alot is 'outsourced' or being produced in cheaper cost countries, but the ownership belongs in Germany. I think this is the reason why USA and GB are having economic problems. Foreign investors the just want money, and do not give 2 hoots about the workers.... Here, they invest in the future, training youth (apprenticeship programm), and if possible, keeping these young people as empoyees, or releasing them into the workforce with some knowledge, having been tutored by a 'Meister/Master' (Heavily trained teacher so to say). Anyway, keep them vids coming, bro. Best wishes to you and your company/workmen, ja? Regards
I toured this factory a couple weeks ago as part of a DMG Mori & Haimer open house. They are extremely strict about precision and which holders are allowed to leave the factory.
im very impressed watching the last videos in studer and haimer, specially for haimer create a company like this in short time since cero, im from latin america and i am a huge fan of manufacturing power in USA, germany and switzerland, i admire the ability in this countries to create and improve, create own machines, own tools, own process, its not only metal and machines, also engenniering, finacial management, acounting process, logistics, this is what this poor countries in latam needs, more manufacturing process, this is so important create and export your products and process, i think latin america are wasting time thinking in stupid topics. finally i would like to learn and live in factories like this hope one day....because in this latam countries find a job is a challenge and some times you need to accept jobs which you dont like because yo need to do money, not a real carreer in thigs you really like greetings from colombia
To buy and use us stuff like hightech, cars and tools is one thing… see german stuff over seas in a extremely good shop is more than Just boom! Keep up the good work in Front of and behind the camera 🇺🇸🇩🇪
Titan, I really love your enthusiasm! These factory tours are great! Keep up the good work!
@@gordonstyles5676 Hey Brother… I remember you😉 Thanks
Im working also in a big company in Stuttgart Germany we make parts for engine for Audi,Bmw and more Apprentice ship with 40 people lots cncs and grinders.
Working in manufacturing is a horrible thing, you cannot work your ass off standing all day, it's great to work in air conditioned software industry like google or Microsoft, which makes you rich, poor guys only work in manufacturing
@@TITANSofCNC ,Manufacturing industries are very capital intensive industry, requires more time, effort and patience, no body knows the output of worthy efforts in future, like how covid 19 lock down have affected manufacturing industry no workers only software companies gave WFH with fully salaried, pretty flexible and more happy, sitting in home earning thousands of dollars, more over point is that manufacturing cannot compromise or pay you lucarctive as finance, banking or software companies provide, as that would hit their profit margins. IT going to employ more people rule the world by WFH, manufacturing sucks.
@@tejaamuthuraam2458 ...you make a very valid point ....which this titan salesman is NOT going to mention. CNC machining is NOT demanding or challenging, once the setup is completed. "140 cnc machines" showed very few people around. 140 conventional machines would have been jammed pack with TRADES PEOPLE ....JOURNEYMEN MACHINISTS.
These shops have minimal journeymen .....and a fair volume of "SETUP PEOPLE" ....who need only training in fundamental part changing. The FMS machines need even less than this ......BUT THIS SALESMAN HAS MENTIONED NOTHING ABOUT THIS FACT. Just a lot of HOT AIR .....and of course the SMILING and HAND-SHAKING/FIST BUMPING.
For a JOURNEYMAN machinist, this company does not offer much. This kind of company would be horrible for someone looking to make things and be involved. There are only a small number of people being regularly challenged.
.
Glad to see a CEO who knows what he's talking about and leading from the front....from tools to machining processes to tolerances etc....German engineering at its best....would love to walk through that shop.....
Lots of machines and a minimal supporting labour group ....keeping costs down. Nothing mentioned about this in the video. Apprentices are paid low compared with journeymen.
.
This is usually the standard at high end German manufacturers. At Hermle for example, even the salespeople has to go through an apprenticeship where you wrench on the machines!
@@taxicamel well, this is 2022 and not 1902. What do you expect? Lol
If you try to do mass manufacturing without automation, you are bound to fail. Even if you are doing it in China where labor is cheaper.
@@taxicamel apprentices also spend almost half their time in vocational schools. 🤷🏼♂️
and Im actually glad to hear an CEO of an international corporate being able to speak fluent English without any crazy amount of German accent. There are so many CEOs holding international press conferences and you have a hard time to understand a single word.
We need more Titan videos. As a German I should add that we also need to bring manufacturing back. Our industry has been very keen on outsourcing production to other EU and non-EU countries. It starts with the identity and our core competences. Time to get that back, especially in the minds of the general public.
Yea bring it back, bring it back right now. Made in Germany should be made in Germany and not just designed in Germany.
Und wie im Video erwähnt, die Firmen sollten wieder ihre Produktion im Zentrum haben. Alles was wir in den Händen halten können, muss produziert werden und das sind die Wurzeln von unserem Wohlstand. Die produzierende Hand muss unbedingt wieder Respekt in der Gesellschaft und in der Geschäftswelt haben.
Btw. Bin selber in einer Firma als CNC/ CAM Fachkraft hier in Bayern/Deutschland tätig und auch unsere Firma hat eine Fertigung in China.... Dieser tägliche Kampf gegen Preise ist frustrierend, aber bei der Qualität, da ist es genau andersrum. Blöd halt, das auf allen Produkten der Firmenname steht... Zeitenwende sollte auch in den Köpfen der Chefetage stattfinden.
@@marcelbrieg3581 Hello what cam software do you use.
@@freedomenergy6644 i use solidcam
so true. we really need to bring it back. Too much machining jobs went to china...
@@marcelbrieg3581 ja aber ich glaube das ist der beste Mittelweg. Ne stammfertigung in Deutschland und dann das ein oder andere werk außerhalb. Deutschland als Produktionsstandort ist halt teuer aber so kann man wettbewerbsfähig bleiben und weiter in Deutschland fertigen
Im mostly impressed by the way they "calculate", as a businessman my self i see that they do calculate everything into pricing... machines, amortisation, research and development financing and.. they even calculated the "education" of the new generation into it!
those are all "long time calculations" on a 10-15 year basis.
Thats why companies survive.. and get even promoted due to young people having a nice apprenticeship.. they have so many young people, which are trained on their own machines, so they start with top performance even at 20yrs old!
amazing operational accounting in all aspects!
love the German approach to getting youngsters into the industry
Fg
get them when they are young, give them the tools and knowledge and experience to become masters of their craft, support them whatever the state of the economy, because machines can be bought and sold, but your trained employees can't. You depend on these people as the bedrock of your operation and your company can only scale with the amount of quality employees you have.
but we still have far too few young skilled workers in Germany. So if you want to work in Germany, take the chance! Germans are very nice to people from other countries, especially if they want to work here!
Yes its a great system, and happens in so many profesion not only machining. They start with a company, make a apentoship contract between them, get payed monthly and atent special shools and work at learn at the company the same time. Duration is between 3 to 3.5 years. At final they have to make a test in theory and praktic work, if passed, they own the title in this profesion and are real profecionals you can count on in their field. Perfect trained, perfect educated, perfect knowledge. Just outstanding...
They are the pros you want in your company working for you. Germany education system in this handy profesion is unique and a outstanding sucess. This is what makes the German industrie so powerfull! I do not know something similar happening in other countries up to now.
I'm American, and I work at the Ohio plant for a German auto parts manufacturer and have been lucky enough to be one of the first four students in an American adaptation of the German apprenticeship program. It is simply amazing and I hope this spreads more into the world as it's a highly effective way to learn.
German precision manufacturing is the greatest industry to work in !
Working nearly 6 years in the trade, completed the dual-system apprentice as a tool maker in 2016 and now being head- lathe operator besides my boss. (Ok, honeastly, we are only 6 workers)
Turning crazy stainless parts, bar-feeder automated parts at incredible speed and hitting an 8,090mm diameter in Hasteloy with a tolerance of only 8µm (Microns).
So much experience gained and so much to be gained in the future.
CNC-Maching is so awesome and fascinating -
Love this trade - Greetings from Germany

@@davidcheung8595 In Germany a comma is what´s your decimal point.
@@davidcheung8595 double check yourself too lol 😂 different parts of the world use different decimal points, just like how they have different date formatting.
Absolutely incredible, as a CNC instructor it's been extremely difficult to get full classes going. Granted our program is 12 weeks and not 3.5 years but its fully funded. I feel like they pulled the trades out of schools and pushed college onto high schoolers when the trades are a more realistic approach for many teenagers. Honestly I wish I had known sooner how satisfying a career in machining could be now I'm trying to inspire a new generation who has no idea that there's a career path for them that doesn't involve 4 years of college.
Well said.
It feels really weird for me as well, i hear so many dropouts say that they didnt know what they wanted but had to choose in less time than that.
12 weeks (or even months) to get a stable trade education in the general direction that you're interested in is awesome. Figuring out what precisely you want while on a stable income and under minimal stress..... I sort of had that luxury by already working night and i saw so many of my friends stressed into bad decisions and uni debt.
I studied CNC machining for 11-12 month and I can say it should take at least 2 years to really get comfortable
And know what you’re actually doing
Too bad you haven't explained where you are in your schooling system. I have no idea what a "fully-funded 12 week course" is. What age are you talking?
"High schoolers" are typically only exposed to a variety of trades ......IF THEY CHOOSE TO SIGN UP. Wood, metal, electrical, plumbing, drawing ....and perhaps some other areas are presented for short periods throughout one year.
THEN people graduate and those that have chosen go to an apprenticeship course, go specifically to the field of their choice. This is a formal program of specific years and of specific training, which is often coordinated with industry. This is what happens in Canada ....in very general terms.
You did NOT provide much of an explanation ....more like general rhetoric.
.
The First 12 weeks of German apprenticeship is to File an U-Steel to perfect 90° Angle and flatness. After that, maybe Drilling some holes on the Drillpress.....
That was an amazing video - I was an apprentice toolmaker for Laepple in Ireland which was a German Company so was lucky to complete the German program, got to compete in the world skills competition and went on to be a CNC machinist and now a mechanical engineer in medical devices for a german company based in the US. German Engineering - BOOM
Thanks Titan for bringing and explaining the German apprenticeship program to the world, which is the most important base pillar of German manufacturing and engineering!!! Thank you Titan!
This is why Swiss, German and Austrian are the best
The commitment and the mindset in south Germany's engineering companies is just awesome... and most are still family businesses ! The amount of knowledge and expertise is just breathtaking, Arburg, Festo, Hermle, Trumpf, ZF, and many, many more...(not to mention the automotive industry), no area in the world has so much engineering knowledge concentrated in a relatively small place !
true that
As a technician, I'm always amazed when I walk into a shop with white floors, walls, and everything has its own spot. And its almost like the whole shop glows.
The shop cleanliness is incredible.
I've been in places where the air is full of coolant mist, dried coolant coats everything, dark, dirty dingy, oil resistant boots start sliding, epoxy coating is peeled up and worn out. My tools need to be wiped down at the end of the day.
It's amazing when management puts some money into keeping the thing that makes money nice.
I've been in some nicer facilities and the difference in the employees attitudes is night and day too.
I know the employees get the work done, well done management on doing right by your employees, facilities and buildings!
I was surprised to mention Brazil. I'm from Brazil and I've been working with CNC Machines for 20 years. I love what I do and will spend the rest of my life doing stuff! "Boom"
BOOM😁
I am proud to work in this industry for almost 10 years now. Still at the same company where I made my apprenticeship. Nowadays I work on a EMCO Hyperturn 65 Powermill, creat all kinds of stuff from spare and ware parts, equipment for production and assembly to parts which are in early development. From time to time even parts for customers.
Even though others design those parts, even I as a machinist can bring in my own ideas.
After almost quitting my apprenticeship I'm proud of what I become in such a underrated industry
It is the best video that I ever seen.I just cry all over the time of the video.They have the biggest company that I ever seen and I wish a just CNC machine.good luck to you and good luck to Haimer.😭😭😭😭😭
Watching this has refuelled me. As a teacher of Engineering by choice I research non stop as there aren’t good programs in Jamaica 🇯🇲 where I live for CNC machining. Seeing those guys operate those lathes and mills somehow gave me a sense of hope for my own program. I now feel rejuvenated to press on for the betterment of my country through machining. Thanks guys.
Does Jamaica have a CNC machine
@@SAXONWARLORD1000AD we do have CNC machines (too few) but non in the high school program or tertiary for that matter. I am actively trying to raise funds to change that
Worked on a custom made 10 million dollar German machine that had over 50 motors & hundreds of air solenoids & little air pistons. Every hole was dead on and built like a Sherman tank. Was lucky to work with 4 German techs & a electrician for two months assembling this machine. They had a maybe 20 year old apprentice that could weld & run our Bridgeports, lathes, etc better then our guys who were twice his age.
Titan, I know you visit a lot of machine shops, but this one is off the charts. You can tell the excitement you have from being there.
This is what leadership and company culture looks like. Your people will die for you (not literally) if you show them you care for them. In the Aerospace shop we owned, we personally greeted every employee every day. In 25 years, thru good times and bad, we never laid off a one no matter if it hurt the company or not. We grew to be a highly respected business in our realm. If it wasn't good for our employees, it wasn't good for our company. Paid us back as owners in spades. But mostly in pride. Kudos to the Heimer family, an example of a fine and highly respected company.
I just started in the manufacturing industry about 8 months ago and I’m completely addicted to the amount of knowledge I come home with every night. I Cnc parts for fracking in the oil and gas field using haas 5-axis vertical mills. Love your videos and it pushes me to better my self and to learn more🤙🏻
It is nice to see more family-owned company grow as major brands...
That’s the normal thing in Germany. That’s why our country is so strong. Lots of small champions
@@Oldtimer_Prototyp yes very inspirational! In our Country, the bigger capitalist and conglomerates ate every niche and pushing the SME's to the corner and stop at nothing...
@@metalextras Unfortunately, small companies are finding it harder and harder to find people and buy resources as they become more and more expensive. I hope the situation will improve at some point again

If we talk actual production - r&d within enginering and cnc, it actually even predates the WW2. They the german always impress me when it comes down to manufacturing quality and its cool to see these new generations flourish the ever search towards perfection, as perfection never can be reach but to always strive for it is what makes the difference.
I love these videos! Cheers from Sweden 🇸🇪 to Titan CNC 🇺🇸 .
Thanks from a German. Sweedish Engineering is also great! We should stop outsourcing our work and knowledge to Countrys in the Asia Region an bring Manufacturing back to Europe/US
Cheers, mate, from SWEDEN 🇸🇪! As a young boy, i ask my Grand Pa:
"What separates Germany(the people) from other Countries? Where's the difference?"
He said to me:
"Michael, short answer:
May be, in other countries the people are working to live...
Here, in Germany, the people are living to work... That could be the difference..." Only to get things done is not enough... Your inner attitude toward things is what counts... You should love your profession deeply in your heart.
BUT:
In a globalised world, however, that's increasingly not enough. The fight become to be harder and harder. Ancient companies have already died because intellectual property was simply stolen in parts of a company that produced in China... Many employees, peoples, entire families, Grand Pa's, Fathers, Sons, Grandsons are loosing her jobs... That's it, what's going on today in this world, where WE ALL living in... Do you know, Do you feel what i mean?... Greatings from old Germany, from an old man, working in this industry since allmost 42 years... Still standing strong... 😉 😎 👍
@@michaeltrilck5680 Thanks for sharing the story Michael. To put it lightly, the profession can also be the love of your life.
@@QuantumWaveMaster I agree, i dont want to disrespect the hard working people of China working for little to no money in these factories, but i blame the establishment and the boards for outsourcing so much to Asia. A company should be staying in the nation it was started and if outsourcing it should be for the sales nothing else.
A little sidestory, i recently bought a pair of clutch and throttle cables for my motorcycle from a famous american company that is well reputated, when i got the cables it said made in Taiwan and China, i took to the email and asked the manufacture, that i thought the products were 100% made in USA, and he told me they are made to our specs but in these countries. I was disapointed.
@@mikebrown41182 Hi, mate! I TOTALY agree you opinion! I know this big ol' proud american motorcycle company... (me as a Biker and YAMAHA Fan) The profit drove them to China... AND they wanted to circumvent the European Embargo (punitive tariffs)... It's a dirty game they play in this world... ONLY profit counts... NOT the people... Not the pure chinese workers, not the families, not the history of old european companies ... The FAST GLOBAL generated money counts...
My Apprenticeship back in the late 60's and early 70's in the UK, was for 5 years, one day a week was spent at Technical College and 4 days on the tools, learning the hand skills that live with you all your life.
Great work you are doing Titan, engineering forgot to train the next generation, they didn't see the need as they would get all their manufacturing made abroad and we can see today how that turned out.

Thats awesome.
Trade school for it now is embarrassing. All online and no one with the patience or ability to teach.
@@Kspice9000 Thank you, but teaching is all about communication and the internet maximises that. You still need to learn the hand skills and that comes with experience but todays machinists need a lot of technical information that can be taught via the internet.
In my day, the machines I used were all used by hand and that could not be learnt by text books, but todays CNC's are a technical marvel, that I have been proud to have experienced from day one
Madness, what a company. I know Haimer and have worked with the tools myself - I am also a cutting machine operator and have also completed a state-certified technician. I often wish I could just stand at the machines again and get out of the office. Production like this makes every machinist's heart beat faster. It's nice to see that there are still companies in Germany that you can be proud of. Very nice insight.
So inspiring! I’m not even a machinist but I can appreciate the accuracy, perfection, attention to detail and “can do” attitude. Attributes important to any business on earth!
Andreas and family are so kind and accommodating. What an exceptional share. Thank you!
We only use the Haimer 3D-sensor at work. We do prototypes and the speed of using the 3D-sensor compared to a probe is awesome.
Liebe an die Kollegen! es lebe der Arbeiter! Ihr macht nen tollen Job! seid Stolz auf euch!!!
Man it’s great that you have such an appreciation for our manufacturing!
In our tool management, we are using more than 10.000 tool holders from HAIMER. Cool to see how they are made.
I had the pleasure of visiting the HAIMER central 2 years ago -
inspiring Plant-tour -
and I know that I will be working on this equipments- I saw the quality with my own eyes.

OMY GOD thank you so much for permitting us to see such a wonderful company.. they are really in other levels.. this is amazing.. thanks alot ..
Grew up in a machine shop, at 45 years old after watching the industry slowly fade I was forced to take a job doing something I’m not meant to do. You said it perfectly, We need to embrace manufacturing, teach it, respect it, take pride in it.
I have been to Germany 7 times for my job. Great people to work with and great country. Great food also!
They are known for being a bit stiff and formal business wise, but one get a hang of it after a while) Solid food, and beer
Short answer: yes. Learning from how they do things is always a joy and a privilege.
beautiful ! I used to work for konigmetals a german company i woked at their waterloo ON location for many years. I have the most respesct for Germany and their whole manufacturing evolution. they are hardcore and they dont F*#$ around PERIOD. i lived it i know.Germany is HARDCORE
Titan your energy is off the charts, really enjoying these videos!
These vlogs are genuine, you can tell Titan really is impressed. READY FOR BATTLE!
I did an apprenticeship as an Industrial Mechanic in Germany and I studied in the UK. After my studies, I returned to Germany. I am working as an Accountant full-time and as an Industrial mechanic part-time. I am a Greek with American and German background I would say that Germany gives a lot of opportunities to young people. If someone has a motivation, he can achieve everything in Germany. The manufacturing in Germany has proven how the country stable is. The main priorities would be to restore back production to Germany and to attract more people back to the trades.

Btw, little known fun fact Titan, Made in Germany came from victrorian england and it started as a warning, at that time we were just copying British engineering, it was what cheaply made in china is today, but after some time that was getting on our nerves, so we improved and the warning made in germany slowly shifted from a warning to the sign of superior quality.
Incredible facility, crew and company; a HUGE inspiration.
Only at halfway through my german engineering degree i began to understand why the german engineering is so famous.
Its not because of our engineers. Its because we have really skilled workers. Masters of their craft.
I worked in manufacturing/industrial engineering some time ago, mostly optimization of all kinds. The best ideas always came from the shopfloor.
Sometimes there is resentment between shopfloor and engineering, I think both "sides" should talk more with each other.
Manufacturing has to understand that their primary goal is making products, engineers have to understand their job is to serve manufacturing by making the job safer, lighter or more efficient.
Haimer is the best toolholder brand...

Can u help me in making cnc machine
Man that shop is incredible! Awesome setup!!!
One difference one can see between old-school companies you see in Germany and many companies you see in the US is represented in that "in the company for 20+ years" moment.
It's still pretty common here that you start your career in the same company that you end it in - and that makes you value your own work completely different.
If you expect to leave company after 2-5 years, you might be motivated to do a good job and keep your job as long as possible, but you will never feel like it's YOUR company that you are a part of.
You don't think in terms of "I want this place to be better in 10-20 years" and you rarely think "let me learn EVERYTHING there is to learn and become a great asset for the company in long terms".

Most of the things that have made in germany sign are of outstanding quality. We had a 3d taster from Haimer in our cnc shop very impressive tool. Set-up was much faster than using spring loaded edge locators, it was like that for a month all good cheers, till a guy spinned it at 7000 RPM destroying it beyond repair. My boss has ever since told us he's not gonna buy a new one because we aren't prepared for that technology...

german apprenticeship here from augsburg as a cnc machine operator, at first i only got into it because i couldnt find anything else. After a whole year i started to grow interest actually and now realize what a cool job this is. And yes, in germany its getting more and more popular, even for the women, and you titan are also a big reason why i started to like this job.
That was a beautiful video to watch, man! I'm 66 and retired, but I always wanted to learn this trade. You have to start young, but I'd surely would love to learn this process even at my age. I love the European way of thinking when it touches the educational aspect of it. I always believed that working in shoulder with a master craftsman is the way to go. Awesome job man!
Big manufacturer. Hard to take it all in as fast as your video tour was. Beautiful parts everywhere and all the metal outside wow.
I could see the dollar signs coming in and going out.
Great video.
When I was in the Air Force I was stationed in Germany for 2 years starting in 1982. Wonderful people and food. Loved it all. Didn't ever pass anyone on the Autobahn lol.
,Manufacturing industries are very capital intensive industry, requires more time, effort and patience, no body knows the output of worthy efforts in future, like how covid 19 lock down have affected manufacturing industry no workers only software companies gave WFH with fully salaried, pretty flexible and more happy, sitting in home earning thousands of dollars, more over point is that manufacturing cannot compromise or pay you lucarctive as finance, banking or software companies provide, as that would hit their profit margins. IT going to employ more people rule the world by WFH, manufacturing sucks.
America needs to bring back apprenticeships. Manufacturing has been unbelievably amazing to me over the last 30 years. I started in high school working at shops and going to vo-tech, got into CNC service, then sales, and have since gone on to work for some of the worlds leading machine tool companies, many of which are shown in this video. None if it would have been possible without those early opportunities in the trade and the people who cared enough to give me a chance and mentor me.
How does it even work? In Germany for most jobs you need between 2.5 and 3.5 years otherwise you need to study or work unlearned stuff which pays very bad
@@srck4035 That is why it's important to start the apprenticeship in high school when money is not important. American schools are largely focused on academics and college prep, and the trades are not well supported. In fact they are often looked down on by schools. This is why America has a huge skills gap in the trades and STEM. Too much academics and not enough real world.

@@_PJB_ No knock but are they really academic? Going to a shitty college and learning nothing but how to party and you can easily get 6 figures by being sociable as a salesman. Salespeople make way too much compared to skilled workers or even professionals. That's a problem when you have a huge market. Ironically that's the same issue shared between US and China. There's a reason fine engineering products usually come out of smaller countries. Everything else being equal, career choices are made based on compensation.
It's great to see people so stroked about what they do. That's how I felt about being and industrial Maintenance Tech. I am retired now. Kinda miss it.
Thanks for your introduction,I learned a lot ~😃
Thank you Titan for coming by! Looking forward to visiting you in Texas soon!
Titan your a inspiration to all self employed business owners ! Miss your T.V. program glad you give credit to our Father for your success.

Looks like a fantastic company to work for 👏👏👏
Titan is crazy he is wandering around the whole factory like a new hire…. I love it
I love that the president knows exactly what he's owned and not just another suit tie guy in the office!
can't agree more, some are just born to build things!
Love that Attitude and hope our society in U.S give manufacturers or builders, credit how it is important
I think it's fantastic that they have a full in-house paid apprenticeship program AND they start their apprentices on manual machines. I think that learning manual machining well can only help to build a more solid foundation of machining knowledge to build your machinist career on, even if you never touch a manual machine again after completing the apprenticeship.
Machining brings the world together . . . we all speak the same language.

Great video. Germany does make great products. I love watching your videos. They are so motivating. It is exciting to see all the workers actually enjoying their work, building parts. It puts a huge smile on my face.
Thank you for the great video
You are amazing, truly inspirational to see these videos, being in the industry in India it really shows us the direction we should be working in.
Yes I need one of those 3D Sensors! Such a brilliant tool
My heart is overflowing with joy. I can't believe how I'm feeling watching..😁
I'm Amedeo. 25 years old from Italy. I'm technician designer with some software and data entry. I work for iveco defense with catià v5, solid works and another data software. One day I wanna work in Germany also

Thanks, Titan, for the cool vid!!! Um, I believe why German Co.s are so popular/reknownwed is because most big Co.s are family owned, and have been for a long time. Sure there is a heirarcy, but the families are commited to keeping their Firms together, treating coworkers as equals. Yes, alot is 'outsourced' or being produced in cheaper cost countries, but the ownership belongs in Germany. I think this is the reason why USA and GB are having economic problems. Foreign investors the just want money, and do not give 2 hoots about the workers.... Here, they invest in the future, training youth (apprenticeship programm), and if possible, keeping these young people as empoyees, or releasing them into the workforce with some knowledge, having been tutored by a 'Meister/Master' (Heavily trained teacher so to say). Anyway, keep them vids coming, bro. Best wishes to you and your company/workmen, ja? Regards
Truly beautiful shop. I hope I can achieve that scale some day.
Check out the basement! they are making Leopard 3 tanks.
I toured this factory a couple weeks ago as part of a DMG Mori & Haimer open house. They are extremely strict about precision and which holders are allowed to leave the factory.
im very impressed watching the last videos in studer and haimer, specially for haimer create a company like this in short time since cero, im from latin america and i am a huge fan of manufacturing power in USA, germany and switzerland, i admire the ability in this countries to create and improve, create own machines, own tools, own process, its not only metal and machines, also engenniering, finacial management, acounting process, logistics, this is what this poor countries in latam needs, more manufacturing process, this is so important create and export your products and process, i think latin america are wasting time thinking in stupid topics.
finally i would like to learn and live in factories like this hope one day....because in this latam countries find a job is a challenge and some times you need to accept jobs which you dont like because yo need to do money, not a real carreer in thigs you really like
greetings from colombia
To buy and use us stuff like hightech, cars and tools is one thing… see german stuff over seas in a extremely good shop is more than Just boom! Keep up the good work in Front of and behind the camera 🇺🇸🇩🇪
thanks to show these production factory, it is enormous, a big greeting from Peru
Thanks for sharing such a great content Titan! These Haimer guys can be really proud of what they created. Awesome!
