Love what you are doing! There are WAYYYY too many people that think manufacturing is beneath them. Machinists and Welders are looked down on and this needs to change!
I'm a Tooling Engineer at Blue Origin and I totally agree with your statement. I tell engineers all the time to take their prints to the machinists, welders, and inspectors for feedback. These people have a depth of understanding of their processes that we as engineers almost never get, and their experience is hugely valuable. Also, it is huge to see this on TH-cam! I've been in Aerospace for 22 years, and I can't show or talk about most of the things I've worked on. Super pumped to see excitment about American manufacturing!
@@bennymech I worked at Lockheed for several years, oftentimes working directly with tooling engineers to help them redesign tools from the 70s and 80s. My input as a welder was definitely invaluable. I totally agree.
Special thanks to not only Titans of CNC Machining, but most especially Blue Origin for allowing this tour! This is what we need to see more of from Blue, as long as it doesn't violate ITAR.

I wonder what it’s like engineering presumably great stuff that goes nowhere. 23 years, billions of dollars, nothing to orbit yet and nothing to orbit for probably another year or two. Can’t help but feel bad for the engineers doing all this work for nothing.
@@qwerty112311 you know not everyone is as big as space x. they had less than 1/10th the workforce, engineering and produciton crew. now they're just ramping up.
This is an absolute fantastic machine, manufacturing facility. And made right here in the Alabama, USA. 🇺🇸 Thanks for sharing this Titan. And for Blue letting you in.

That's just crazy, I didn't think we would be shown such deep insights, thank you titan for giving us the opportunity to keep improving. Thank you very much and stay healthy. Best regards from Germany.
Incredible facility, employees, machines, everything! Such an awesome tour and shout out to Blue Origin for allowing cameras inside to show how incredible this trade is! BOOM!
Worked at an Aerospace shop that tried to take on a blue origin part. Spent like $19000 before they decided nah we can't do this. I was just a Bridgeport jockey at the time. I'd have given anything for a shot at that part. So cool.
Blue just Relocated me and my family of 6 to the Huntsville office. I can look over from my desk and see all of that CNC glory! Best move I've ever made. Unfortunately I missed Titan by 2 days.
Titan, thank you for gaining the access and sharing this to the CNC world. I hope someone takes the initiative to apply and get a job there. An amazing opportunity, if I wasn't so old and set in my ways, I would love to work there.
Pretty cool to see this. Just got laid off from my aerospace machining job working on a DMG. There are some crazy machining jobs out there right now. Between commercial space and the national labs there are really high paying manufacturing jobs. I'm surprised they let you show as much as you have. It's too bad the listings don't actually show the pay. States need to catch up to Colorado and just start showing the pay.
@@barrysetzer Nice that's good money especially for Alabama and Florida. The thing that is frustrating that companies aren't catching up to states like Colorado is people don't even know if it's worth looking in to if they are out of state. Once you have the pay transparency, it makes the searching much more fruitful for companies and the employees. Soon the days of playing this salary game will be over nationwide and people will just know what positions pay. I'm sure they pay well considering they have millions of dollars worth of high end machines. It's just something that stood out when clicking on the links. Also worth noting even on those listings they say apply if you still don't meet 100% of the "requirements". This is something that is frustrating for highly skilled younger machinists. My analogy is this; take two people with machining experience. 1 has 20 years of experience operating machines in a bottle opener factory. Yes that's right they simply load parts for making bottle openers. No programming, maybe some setup just high volume production. Then take another person with 2 years of high end prototyping + programming + setup experience with aerospace parts or similar. On paper the first person is "more qualified" and will make much more money but anyone who knows anything about manufacturing knows the second person is more capable. Machining is weird at the high end it's this cross between engineering and manufacturing. You have to know so much to make these crazy parts yet engineers with 2 years of experience make more than most machinists. I worked at a prototype casting shop and they actually had the engineers design the fixturing, if you wanted to so much as chamfer a sharp edge an engineering change order needed to be submitted. So it shouldn't be a big deal to pay highly skilled machinists with clever fixturing designing like the part shown on that big horizontal mill @ 2:00, engineering salaries. There is this disconnect between pay and skill. One of my ex co workers put it best. He left the industry and got a degree in data science. He told me that over the years the machinist had to wear more hats. When he first started as a machinist all you had to do was make parts. Then companies got cheap. Then the machinists had to advise the draftsmen on how to make prints. Then they had to correct the 3d models. Then they had to advise on inspection. Then they have to tell engineers that their designs are too hard to make because of x or y reason. The modern day prototype machinist is heavily under rated and I predict a huge pay spike for the top tier prototype machinists. Lots of retirements coming up soon. O yea I'm impressed you guys toured this facility before @smartereveryday since it's in his backyard haha. Keep on keepin on you guys have a good thing going with the sponsorships and the academy and whatnot.
Great tour! Blue origin has a stunning facility with some high end precision machinery. I would encourage everyone to jump on the opportunity to work here.
I love the tours. In my lifetime, I watched American manufacturing dominance nearly vanish. My first tool and die job was sent to China in the early 80s. I respect the messaging and awareness the channel brings to the trade. I've been saying for the past 40 years how important the skilled trade jobs are to making America the manufacturing power house we once were. We went from the world's most innovative nation on earth to farming out our "dirty jobs" knowledge and manufacturing prowess to the lowest bidder. Ronald Ragan oversaw the mass exodus of manufacturing. Driving down wages in the skilled trades and telling kids to go to college, don't get your hands dirty in manufacturing. Trade deals killed the tradesmen. Nothing gets made without machining and skilled tradesmen. A few skilled trades make the world go round without us. The front office doesn't exist.
Dmg installed largest 5 axis in indiana was 2 year special machine all germans that set it up where going to china next job they ordered hundreds dmg so china getting ready for real world
Let's not get it twisted Blue Origins may produce Beautiful parts and they are indeed talented individuals, but to claim they make THE G.O.A.T. engine is Blasphemy
Thank you Titan You're the best I thought you were crazy when you were giving away for free the CNC academy ! Know you sharing a special way to welcome new gen machinest off the world to have a unique chance to become and keep advancing the carrier to the no limit level ! Thanks to all your team for all the efforts off each one making this amazing quality video!
20+ years ago I went to the machine auction that McDonald Douglas/Boeing plant in Torrance, Ca. that made the parts for the DC-10 jetliner. The plant was made for WWII plane production. They had everything in there including a CMM that had a Plexiglas surround to keep its temp stable. Size, 30' X 20' X 20'. Drop forging, heat treating, machining, plating, you name it they did it. They turned it into a warehouse complex for Asian made stuff. Biggest jobs, forklift drivers I bet.
A few years back I visited the museum there. What’s amazing is that they built rocket engines way back in time before machines like this even existed! In talking with several engineers in their late 80’s was so awesome! One of them told me they actually had to build special machines just to make most of the large parts. Simply amazing facility. Every guidance counselor in the high schools should watch this video . BOOM! Great job !
Wow, the nozzles are manufactured using SLS technology, and coated with a technology similar to TiAlSiN plasma spraying on cutters to increase wear resistance, thermal stability, and reduce friction. It's awesome! Thank you Titans for introducing us to the production of engines for spacecraft on Blue Origin!
You are right about people thinking that machining is below them when I was in high school people used to give me a hard time about going to the tech school for machining. But now I’ve talked to some of those people and they can’t believe how much money I make. I’m 25 and I’m making a little over $70,000 and I absolutely love what I do! I’m currently working at Cloeren Inc. making extrusion dies
Yea kids are indoctrinated to believe that college is the only way to be successful in life, so many go there without a clue what they want to do. Many go in arrogant, and come out more arrogant. And tens of thousands in debt. And with a minimum wage service job because they got a useless degree.
We are very proud to see several of our custom built Hydraulic Lift Tables in there to help support this growing team. Amazing, mind-blowing facility! 🤯
Watching this video made me feel like that one GIF of the guy with the exploding cosmos overlaid on it! Seriously, this tour was an absolute trip to watch-I can only imagine what it was like to be there in person!
Hello titan of cncI like the video's you guys put out. I am 14 years old I have a milling machine and a lathe and ome more stuff. I would like to get a cnc one day. You're my inspiration ❤👍👍
@mr.g937 the raptor is overworked consistently running at 100 percent which is why they have constant engine failures. Meanwhile BE4 runs at like 75 80 percent of what it's capable of
@@NextGen48lol the raptor operates at 100% cause it's under powered. Which is also why it has failures on every launch. I mean 4 failed on the most recent starship launch. Do some reading cause unlike you I actually understand what I'm talking about
Awesome that a place I got the ability to go into an company we get to work with opened the doors and I can show others what I couldn't because of this video. Thanks Blue Origin for allowing the the highlight to be put on them with this video. The place is awesome and the people are world class. Great work Titan's of CNC.
Thanks for doing this. I love the rocket channels and Destin doing rocket shop tours, but you bring a different perspective. I love seeing the more technical perspective you bring. Thanks
Greetings from the UK. I've been CNC Turning nearly 38 years. A week ago my company has purchased a VF2 Haas year 2020. We've been given just 2 days to learn everything. Boom Boom BANG!😅
This is awesome! I know they had subcontractors in Sweden in the past as well. I don't know if i am alloved to say which company or for what, but it was parts of a machine involved in the early engine production. We have our own legacy here from Volvo flygmotor (it was not that company however) who also made rocket engines for the european space program beside the figther engines for our own aircraft. I always found this type of things super interesting since i was a little kid and discovered the work by Alfred Nobel black powder rockets and later Goddard and Tsiolkovskys work leading to the first flying bi-fuel rockets as we know them today! (Sorry for my English, it is not my native language...)
Good stuff. Very unexpected that they opened their doors. With the miniscule information blue origin has been putting out, one would expect a giant pit in the middle of an empty facility with bezos just shoveling cash into a fire. But surprisingly, that doesnt seem to be the case.
My gd&t getting rusty but if they’re willing to train why not out the work in, pretty tempting offer don’t see why not to roll the dice and apply if you had even a inclination too
Wow! What a place to work. You can even take a vacation day and go to the fence of the rocket engine test facility and have your teeth fillings rattled out.
I’m guessing it’s not a coincidence that they chose a thrust rating of 550,000, because that last digit is how many rockets Blue Origin has sent to orbit.
working at a company who makes alot of tooling for blue origin, and more specifically alot of tooling for the hunstville location, this was a super cool video to watch!
I really love living in Huntsville. And when they play around at the arsenal, you can hear it 20-30miles away. We blow shit up around here. Rocket engines and missiles both 😂
I saw how cool Blue Origin's machine shop is, especially making rocket engines. It is awesome! Big shoutout to your team - you are rocking in educating us! I am curious about the tricky stuff you face in making rocket engines so well. I am curious to know more about the specific challenges in handover from design team to production team. Could you share some insights?
Awesome video!!!! I so proud for you! When you want come to Finland, just take contact and maby you can see some awesome special machine!!!! +60 Meter x-axis :) Thank you and your team!
This is such a weird coincidence! Just heard about a bunch of machinist jobs for blue origin, and I just machined my first part for blue origin where I work today! They are a relatively New customer for us. How amazing for blue origin to let you guys in to make a video ! The space race is really picking up! I’m sure they want the advertisement, I don’t think spacex would ever ever do this.
Titan, you nailed it. It's such a positive video, and I feel like i should submit a resume even though i started life as a tool maker and ended up becoming a welding inspector
I watched some of the videos from the PRI Show at Indianapolis last night (Steve Morris Engines - 1 Million Feet Of Race Car Stuff) and a vendor at (TrueArc Laser Weld 1000 @ 23:00 min.) said that there's going to be a shortage of 400,000 welders in the U.S. because most of the smaller companies can't or don't want to innovate with the costlier new automated welding machines.
Hey this is my first time ever seeing your channel, I think it’s really going to help me for when I actually get a lathe/Mill for at home and it’s really going to help me feel like I need to know like to upgrade and stuff like that
you need to do a video again in switzerland at Pilatus Aircraft. they upgradet to automated riveting of aircraft fuselage and 4 years ago they installed a GROB cell with 6 machines and 4 starrag ecospeed.... made my appreticeship there... HUGE company and huge "family" feeling there, they offer 150 jobs for apprenticeships every year on 10 different jobs (machinists, sheet metal, assembly, automation, plastics, painter etc), all in house
I’ve commented many times, but if you could get ahold of Alex Wright at Ariel Corporation in Mount Vernon, Ohio, I think you’d really like their story and the culture. It would be great for showing women and youth with their apprentice program. They are huge on fixturing too. They are the top dog when it comes to reciprocating gas compressors.
@17:55 It's good to see this wasn't scripted, since 3 (edit:5)tools are missing and the bench is empty =P It shows how important organization is, and how quickly a missing tool can be noted with proper station setup. Without the cutouts for every tool it would be impossible to tell at a glance that what you are looking for isn't there. Great work, guys who designed and made the foam cutouts! This is a HUGE time sink at disorganized places
So cool. I would have loved to have been a machinist. I went the electrician route instead and it has been a good career too but I love to see these videos of all the awesome work that is being done in the industry.
Love what you are doing! There are WAYYYY too many people that think manufacturing is beneath them. Machinists and Welders are looked down on and this needs to change!

S/O to Huntsville! Huntsville is host to MANY leading edge companies doing incredible aerospace work.
Such a cool behind the scenes!
Awesome that a place I got the ability to go into an company we get to work with opened the doors and I can show others what I couldn't because of this video. Thanks Blue Origin for allowing the the highlight to be put on them with this video. The place is awesome and the people are world class. Great work Titan's of CNC.
This tour is amazing. Newest machines, lots of experience all around and great people.
Thanks for doing this. I love the rocket channels and Destin doing rocket shop tours, but you bring a different perspective. I love seeing the more technical perspective you bring. Thanks
Greetings from the UK. I've been CNC Turning nearly 38 years. A week ago my company has purchased a VF2 Haas year 2020. We've been given just 2 days to learn everything. Boom Boom BANG!😅
Grateful that your team was able to make this happen. Keep up the good job spreading the word about how cool manufacturing actually is!!
This is awesome! I know they had subcontractors in Sweden in the past as well. I don't know if i am alloved to say which company or for what, but it was parts of a machine involved in the early engine production. We have our own legacy here from Volvo flygmotor (it was not that company however) who also made rocket engines for the european space program beside the figther engines for our own aircraft. I always found this type of things super interesting since i was a little kid and discovered the work by Alfred Nobel black powder rockets and later Goddard and Tsiolkovskys work leading to the first flying bi-fuel rockets as we know them today! (Sorry for my English, it is not my native language...)
You are a blessing to youtube. Keep up the great work and know you are inspiring small shop owners out here. God bless you brother.
Impressive facility!
Good stuff.
Very unexpected that they opened their doors.
With the miniscule information blue origin has been putting out, one would expect a giant pit in the middle of an empty facility with bezos just shoveling cash into a fire.
But surprisingly, that doesnt seem to be the case.
Hahaha nice visual. LMAO
My gd&t getting rusty but if they’re willing to train why not out the work in, pretty tempting offer don’t see why not to roll the dice and apply if you had even a inclination too
Wow! What a place to work.
You can even take a vacation day and go to the fence of the rocket engine test facility and have your teeth fillings rattled out.
Guessing it's not a coincidence the BE-4 generates 550,000lbf of thrust and the shop is 550,000sq.ft.
No that is a total coincidence.
I’m guessing it’s not a coincidence that they chose a thrust rating of 550,000, because that last digit is how many rockets Blue Origin has sent to orbit.
working at a company who makes alot of tooling for blue origin, and more specifically alot of tooling for the hunstville location, this was a super cool video to watch!
I used to work in CRP right down from here.. that place is MASSIVE!
haha Titan walking around a rocket factory shouting BOOM!!!!
WOW....... COOL ,......gives a whole new meaning to *Machine Shop (lol)..... guess I should call it a Rocket Shop.
I really love living in Huntsville. And when they play around at the arsenal, you can hear it 20-30miles away. We blow shit up around here. Rocket engines and missiles both 😂
Huge video
Outstanding… If I was a younger person wanting a great career,I’d be camping out in their parking lot until I got in…
TITANS + SPACE ENGINEERING LEVEL + CNCs + good BGM = BOOOM❣
I saw how cool Blue Origin's machine shop is, especially making rocket engines. It is awesome!
Big shoutout to your team - you are rocking in educating us! I am curious about the tricky stuff you face in making rocket engines so well. I am curious to know more about the specific challenges in handover from design team to production team. Could you share some insights?
Awesome video!!!! I so proud for you! When you want come to Finland, just take contact and maby you can see some awesome special machine!!!! +60 Meter x-axis :) Thank you and your team!
This is such a weird coincidence! Just heard about a bunch of machinist jobs for blue origin, and I just machined my first part for blue origin where I work today! They are a relatively
New customer for us. How amazing for blue origin to let you guys in to make a video ! The space race is really picking up! I’m sure they want the advertisement, I don’t think spacex would ever ever do this.
are they doing their work in metric or imperial ?
i am a specialist from germany, i would love to come to the USA, but these inches scare me off :D
If I had to guess I would say it's a combination of both
Just set numbers but lot more deslexia happens mm much less because less numbers to calculate calculate
Most shops in the US use both, depends on the customer. Why would inches scare you? It's simple math.
Inches × 25.4 = MM
MM ÷ 25.4 = Inches.
Inches add dialect mm less numbers all set worked inches 33years mm 3years much simpler less inverting of n8mbers when hung over
How big is the shop and where is it again?
Titans of CNC……….keeps getting better! Keep up the great work.
Awesome Tour...... Keep it up Titan - Your fantastic to show everyone about the great career paths out there
Titan, you nailed it. It's such a positive video, and I feel like i should submit a resume even though i started life as a tool maker and ended up becoming a welding inspector
Thanks for sharing. Really appreciate
I watched some of the videos from the PRI Show at Indianapolis last night (Steve Morris Engines - 1 Million Feet Of Race Car Stuff) and a
vendor at (TrueArc Laser Weld 1000 @ 23:00 min.) said that there's going to be a shortage of 400,000 welders in the U.S. because most of
the smaller companies can't or don't want to innovate with the costlier new automated welding machines.
Hi,
Can you please, make video on RTCP, DWO to 5 Axis?
Titan! you need to fly on New Glen!
Hey this is my first time ever seeing your channel, I think it’s really going to help me for when I actually get a lathe/Mill for at home and it’s really going to help me feel like I need to know like to upgrade and stuff like that
you need to do a video again in switzerland at Pilatus Aircraft.
they upgradet to automated riveting of aircraft fuselage and 4 years ago they installed a GROB cell with 6 machines and 4 starrag ecospeed....
made my appreticeship there... HUGE company and huge "family" feeling there, they offer 150 jobs for apprenticeships every year on 10 different jobs (machinists, sheet metal, assembly, automation, plastics, painter etc), all in house
I’ve commented many times, but if you could get ahold of Alex Wright at Ariel Corporation in Mount Vernon, Ohio, I think you’d really like their story and the culture. It would be great for showing women and youth with their apprentice program. They are huge on fixturing too. They are the top dog when it comes to reciprocating gas compressors.
How about the dental assistant making a career change like that. Awesome!
she still is a dental assistant in some sense
Sorry, I'm a bit confused- how many square feet is this shop? I think I missed the part where you mentioned that key detail.
This channel has inspired me to be an engineer making these awesome CNC machines🔥🔥
Absolutely it's amazing manufacturing machine shop
Why a tortoise cavity in the turbine compartment? Does that cavity causes the turbine to be inefficient? Does the welding on the cone get machined?
WOOWWW!! What amazing place to work. This is an eye opener. Go blue!!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you for this great video! Martin from Space Intelligence
My beautiful Droop and Rein 5 axis being installed.
@17:55 It's good to see this wasn't scripted, since 3 (edit:5)tools are missing and the bench is empty =P
It shows how important organization is, and how quickly a missing tool can be noted with proper station setup.
Without the cutouts for every tool it would be impossible to tell at a glance that what you are looking for isn't there. Great work, guys who designed and made the foam cutouts!
This is a HUGE time sink at disorganized places
manufacturing is king 💪 love the mission you’re on titan!!
can we have a huntsville alabama counter? haha
Make it a coffee drinking game!
So cool. I would have loved to have been a machinist. I went the electrician route instead and it has been a good career too but I love to see these videos of all the awesome work that is being done in the industry.
LOL 11:11 that sure looks familiar
Amazing access, inspiring video. Thank you Titan. Ciao, Marco.
I'm beginning to like the new Blue Origin!
Huge respect for anyone who opens their doors.
