my father was project manager for Walsh. From the first day of construction of this plant, I was fortunate to work there and watch Cat use hundreds of local men build this awesome piece of property. I also have worked in vessels that use cat engines. Watching this clip really fortifies "God Blesses America". Peace Brothers.
Took a tour a few years ago. Incredible facility. When I was there, they were getting ready to ship out 5 - 5mw generators to the navy, to go in an aircraft carrier. (Used to provide power to get the reactor started.)
I love these How It's Done videos. Positives: mostly enjoyable, informative, good camera work. Negatives: why-why-why must video editors shift so quickly from one image to the next? Might viewers see something - ahem - top secret? Most unlikely. The music - bleeeugh!
@transcendtient I think you're missunderstanding what I say, I did work many years as a heavy equipment tech. in USA. It was a hard work, many jobs were exported out of USA. I prefered work on Caterpillar equipment, excavators,compactors,motor graders,tractors and many others. I learned to fly @ Fullerton, I was one of those that could teach anyone wanting to learn, very expierenced in welding and more. I love USA,loved Norwalk,Bellflower,Long Beach,Sta Fe Springs,and many more cities.
The union has made little effort to unionize Lafayette, because the workers there are mainly happy about the wages and benefits they are getting, Cat wants to keep it that way.
Watching this video, and seeing the quality and dedication going into the product, I can only hope the bean-counters aren't contemplating moving the facilities offshore. Seeking cheap labor has become a national tragedy these days.
This is Auxiliary Engine you need to look for Main Engine propulion MAK or MAN B&W for ex MAK 9M43 or VM43C in same Company line so search for Germany - Kiel, MaK Motoren GmbH & Co. also Caterpillar Motoren since 97'
@64jorthom I could not agree more, unions aren't just an American problem but it is worse here because they have complete control of the democratic party. Walmart is only giving the American people what they want and they do it with out unions. One of the reasons Scarebus is so competative is because EADS unions aren't alowed to strike.
Stay on the subject longer. Give the viewer a chance to process what is being shown. If you are going to show how it's made....show how it's made, don't just jump from one image to the next. Please.
I work at Mahle. We make the pistons for these engines. We can't take pictures of anything. If I brought a camera to work they would fire me, LOL. They are very secretive about their product and the way it's manufactured.
hmmmm I import Mahle Clevite aluminium pistons for Caterpillar 3500 series diesel engines in Lahore Pakistan. I also rebuilt these engines in own service workshop and offer Mahle Clevite engine parts for all CAT engines as OEM. I don't know why Mahle do not offer me CAT 3500 steel piston likewise CAT part number 314-5005 and 299-5204
@transcendtient Americans aren't cheap, we like things well done. The live in US is different, and those guys in China are living with the money you say, .35 cents an hour, it doesn't make think is a good money, what can someone buy with that money? Remember is a comunist country, whatever you do is for the gobernment.
Punishing repetitive musak. One would think if the company was proud of their product they would want the public to watch it, but no, they would prefer to drive people mad instead.
ماشاء الله فيديو أكثر من رائع أتمنى يكون عندنااا هذة الورشة العملاقة او خط الانتااج هذا الاكثر من رائع في ترسانة بورسعيد البحرية واتمنى تكون ورشة المحركات بترسانة بورسعيد مثل هذا الفيديو حقااااا شي جميل ورائع جدااااااا Mashallah video more than wonderful Andnaaa I hope this workshop will be a giant or a line Allantaj this most gorgeous of Port Said in the arsenal of the Marine Hakaaaaa Shi beautiful and wonderful Jadda
' that coool caterpillar company... workers musts using neat clothes codes at work... not use home slumpsy clothes at work... must use safety clear googgle eyeglasses and safety helmets at work... not use home cap cap cap cap at work
Compare the amount of profit those companies make, with the CEO's sallaries and than the workers pay-check. Can't blame unions for trying to get the workers a bigger cut. Companies, CEO's, stockholders want more profit, thats why they move to low-cost countries. Not just wages, but also tax, environmental and health regulations make them move...
stanley kwiecinski mostly hire thru temp agency. If they can't make it thru first 90 days or so without missing work they aren't hired full time. That pretty much weeds em out

Thank goodness for tariffs. Hopefully more jobs will return to America.
I've been to that plant. Very impressive. Nobody seems to be in a hurry, but everytime you look back, lots of progress has been made.
I worked at this plant for 13 years, best 13 years ever!
Took a tour a few years ago. Incredible facility. When I was there, they were getting ready to ship out 5 - 5mw generators to the navy, to go in an aircraft carrier. (Used to provide power to get the reactor started.)
I like The teamwork here that’s the way the jobs at companies should be” good job great place to work well organized “
The second best diesel engine manufacturer in Indiana.
There is nothing quite like the sound of a newborn Clatterpillar starting for the very first time.
Nothing beats a CAT engine
Great work colleagues.

missing work at Caterpillar!
As of Dec 2011 the build is just over 50 3500 series engines a day. Oh by the way, the Lafayette Large Engine Center is non union.
the build rate is at about 32 (3500) a day right now, but its going up here in the next month...
I dunno know about this plant, but my CAT plant is doing just fine!
This movi shows that in CAT factory during lifting operation, people do not using safety equipments.Safety First is not present here.Bravo!!!
Qualche giorno la procedura
its always been an designer's dream to design those and bulldozers and cranes
Why cant this be in 4k
Final inspection! Yep that paints dry now where is my burger
How much does this generator cost?
If you have to ask you can't afford it. I'm told by my boss there that they have a varying range from 250k to 1.5 mil.
Good job 👍 💯
great video
The union has made little effort to unionize Lafayette, because the workers there are mainly happy about the wages and benefits they are getting, Cat wants to keep it that way.
getting ready to get out school how do i apply
whats the song?
what music they using
well it's got a crankshaft and pistons, connecting rods, like any other internal combustion engine, just larger.
😎✌ I work there...
How come the last engine was white?
Watching this video, and seeing the quality and dedication going into the product, I can only hope the bean-counters aren't contemplating moving the facilities offshore. Seeking cheap labor has become a national tragedy these days.

Hey man ! Don't ask the impossible : this is a corporate film or so it seems. They didn't put on live sound either : too noisy for the shareholders !…
Most people get bored with that kind of stuff pretty fast, but as a motor head I'd like to see the uncut version.
as far as i know cat disassembly in corinth is non union also......
Haha.. Mini-Musser @ 2:13 . I used to work the line you see this guy running. Then I got laid off.
Music Sucks. But good Video. Thanks to Our new President jobs are still in Indiana. Go Trump. 👍

It would have been much better to have the live sound : all workers wear ear mufflers : this certainly is not for nothing !…
Where has that manufacturing business gone, Germany, Japan? They seem to do ok with unions.
Let's see how long before the union forces this plant to close.
es fantástico!!
Punishing repetitive musak. One would think if the company was proud of their product they would want the public to watch it, but no, they would prefer to drive people mad instead.
