Why would you pick up hundreds if not thousands of nut blanks off the floor day after day, one would think that it would of dawned on him to put some sort of a bucket / bin under the shears
They have nothing to pick up a heavy bin. You would think, though, they would raise the press and install a chute of some kind. Someone from India told me once that they just don’t bother to engineered things because the labor is so cheap.
Reminds me of when I was a young lad working part time in a small factory in Birmingham, we used to make piston ring clamps and hose pipe clamps, if you were caught talking to someone on the machine next to you, you had a bollocking from the foreman. If you dropped something on the floor you had another, followed with the words, “pick it up son, that’s one less clamp you can make”, I used to earn 2shillings and six pence an hour, the foreman spoke to me one day saying the boss, mr Arthur, has been watching you, and thinks you deserve a pay rise to 2shillings and eight pence an hour. Makes me smile, and brings back some happy memories of my youth!!
Oohhh, you lucky bastard....when I was young lad , I'd get 2 shiling a week . Forman would smack me on back of head just for being there...... I'd guess you know the rest.... I'm an old carpenter, so I can feel your pain . Back in the days when the forman was God and could treat you any way he wanted..... as you say good times though...😂😅😊🇦🇺

Das Video erinnert mich an meine Zeit als Schlosser-Lehrling: (die political-correctnes-Mächte werden das auf "Schlosser-Azubi" ändern?) ich war nicht barfuß, aber solange das Loch in meiner Schuhsohle klein genug war, um eine Einlage aus Pappe im Schuh zu halten, solange war es gut. Wesentlich: auch in den 1950er Jahren gab es schon genügend Pappe für diesen Zweck.
When I was 19 I had a job in a factory where they produced multiples of the same item day in and day out. 5000 of this, 10000, of that. All done? We'll bring you some more. It was the most mind numbing backbreaking work I had ever done. I was fortunate when the lead hand noticed I had a gift for working with machinery and setting up the dies they used. I was taken off the line after a while and did nothing but set ups and tear downs. When I walked away from that place I never looked back. I was fortunate enough to have the ability and hunger to do more. Some of those poor fellows spent their entire life working there running the same machines making the same products everyday..........
It drives me crazy watching these videos. These craftsmen seem able to build anything *except* a table and chairs (there is the odd chair). It would be so much more efficient.
Lean manufacturing and 5S would do these guys some good. I very much admire their hard work and craftsmanship, but efficiently, they have a lot to be desired.
It’s meant to be inefficient because that provides employment, when I was in India in 1973 the road workers had 2 guys on one shovel, this is how you keep the masses happy, not productive but they all have a little money and aren’t starving to death.
@@billdeburgh Makes sense, thanks. I didn't notice the writing on first viewing (too focused on old machines and dangerously exposed toes, I guess). On second look, I see a few letters--and Arabic numerals as well!
Interesting to see all of that old equipment still running. It's like the industrial revolution never graduated from kindergarten for some of these places though.
I suspect that most of those old heavy-duty machines were built for WW-II. Probably, many of them were built in the US to support the wartime effort. The good thing about those machines is that they were built to last. From 1986 - 1989 I was working as a civilian aerospace engineer for the US Navy in Alameda California at the Naval Air Rework Facility. We repaired and rebuilt aircraft. There was a very large machine shop on that naval base, built inside of a huge aircraft hanger. In that shop, we had many WW-II era machines working alongside completely modern, precise CNC (computer numerically controlled) machines. It worked well. We just matched the machining task with the best machine to perform the task. In about 1991 (after the Soviet Union collapsed), that naval base was closed. I suspect that some of the equipment was moved to other rework facilities. But some of that WW-II equipment may have ended up in Indian factories, still being used today. There is still a lot of that old machinery being used in the US today.
@@edschultheis9537Same here in the UK, lots of Empire machinery from railway building etc. still in place. A video elsewhere shows a huge centre lathe in use with 'Birmingham, England', on the casting!
I don't imagine the health & safety guys are too busy in that place. "Boss! Brother Iftikhar has just lost his hand in the nut press!" "Allah willed it. Tell him to use his other one. Next!"
That will teach him to use his hand to play with his nuts! He knows he supposed to use the salad tongs! What happened to the salad tongs? I have to use them to make lunch!
It amazes me how they use individual production methods to mass produce items. I see so many places that they use hands and fingers to do what very small machinery additions can do without risk to life and limb.
As a teenager I worked after school at a factory where lamps were made. It saddened me to learn why some of the time cards had a bent corner or other distinguishing mark. A sizeable number of workers were unable to read even their own names. I continue to be in awe of their determination to be productive. Long ago and far away!
Ah... life at the sweat shop... touching hazardous chemicals with bare hands, playing with dangerous machines, working day and night, all while wearing slippers and not having a care in the world. I sure don't miss it.
Falls under the category of "this is how we've always done it." I mean hey if it works for them. Not the most efficient but it seems to work out in the end. Although, it makes my knees hurt to think about constantly picking stuff up off the floor. 😂
Has nobody in that place ever thought of maybe hanging a bucket to simply catch the nuts at each stage instead of manually scooping EVERY ONE of those thousands of nuts off the floor 10 times for every nut produced??? I guess people are worth less than buckets wherever that place is.
Probably something similar to about 1025 carbon steel, based on how they seem to be machining. There’s enough cold-working to give the resulting fasteners “reasonable” strength, but the nuts are probably somewhat variable in their dimensions…
@@robertbiondo namely, the usual “grade 2” fasteners - soft metal. The ones shown might not even come up to grade 2 levels of tensile and yield strength! (Dimensions, though - they need to have wide tolerances!) Grade 5 and (especially!) grade 8 are stronger, with metric 12.9 a bit stouter than SAE grade 8.
В свое время в Европе с появлением машин и мануфактур рабочие устраивали восстания и ломали машины, когда поняли, что массовое производство может лишить их работы и куска хлеба. Здесь примерно такой же уровень. Механизируешь процесс, и половина рабочих лишился средств к существованию. Поэтому они подбирают гайки с пола всю жизнь.
@StringDriver, As soon as the genius in Washington blow the ###@@%% the world up you may be lucky (if you survive) to find a couple of these guys still able to make a nut---for the bolt which doesn't exist anymore
We live an a world where 25 % of the population doesn't have access to clean, safe drinking water and over 40 doesn't have adequate sanitation. This shouldn't surprise you at all. A large percentage of the world is still going through their "industrial revolution". A lot of the word hasn't got that far yet.
So, if I understand it, our Congress established a massive OSHA plan to protect US workers from injury and then when global businesses ship manufacturing over seas where workers work in deadly conditions, we allow those products to be shipped back in without batting an eye as long as those global corporations fund the Congressmen.
I thought that only US corporations were allowed to make donations to Congressmen. But yeah - if the product passes QA/QC to suit the buyer, what business of the government is it where one buys one's supplies. Are you some sort of socialist, to demand government regulation of businesses? ("Socialist" isn't an insult in this country.)
It's in Pakistan and they still use the old machines back to 1900 or 1950. This people are real craftsmen, I saw that in India & Pakistan. Very good mechanicans (as well as mathematicans).
Where did you get the idea that the initial material was scrap? I looked at it - it's not even surplus lengths of construction rebar (which would probably be the wrong grade of steel anyway, which would get rejected as soon as the purchasers got a report back from their inspection lab). It's new-from-the-factory bars of a specified length and diameter. If the bars came too long, that chain-driven machine for drawing the bar (diameter X) into hex bar (mean diameter X-something) would reach it's end stop with the bar still protruding from the die. Which probably wouldn't be good.
It's pure iron though. I find it very ironic that engineering calls pure iron without any carbon"steel" and very high carbon content cast iron is "iron"
@@GerManBearPig Greater than 2 percent carbon is iron, less than 2 percent carbon is steel. If that was pure iron it would be much to brittle for processes such as drawing and cold forming.
Maybe the TH-cam poster could spring for some safety equip for the hard workers. Does seem like management is too interested. Working with antique machinery, these guys still making a usable product. Hard work!
So why aren’t we making some kind of box or device to catch all of the following nuts that are just falling on the floor all over the place? Can we please make a box a catcher for all of the nuts!🛠️
Some may laugh others may criticize but these are the skills and machinery that will be absolutely necessary if/when the shiet hits the big fan. (It also doesn't hurt to be able to manufacture an AK-47 by hand.)
Britain may no longer be able to produce steel but if these workers are able to keep us in nuts and bolts we can continue with the Industrial Revolution 😂😊
Can someone explain to me how the nuts drop off the tap at 15:44 to 16:05? I can't for the life of me figure out what sorcery is going on here. What's holding and spinning the tap if the nut enters one end and exits the other?
I'd like to learn a little bit more about the machinery they used. Very old and primitive compared to the robots making hardware today, but still interesting to see working. I also just wish the people working in these factories had a better life. Lots of dangerous things going on there, but safety isn't a top concern in these Southern Asian countries.
It might surprise you to know that the vast majority of nuts used in developed countries aren't heat treated either. I had a business next to a company that made millions of bolts, none were heat treated, whether they are heat treated or not depends on the application.
@@TaintedMojo A standard nut that comes with a bolt with 8.8 stamped on its head is not heat treated... You need to go to a higher grade bolt/ nut before various degrees of heat treatment are used.
For all those complaining about efficiency - they are getting the job done. If you put a bucket underneath, you need to make sure it isn't too big or it will get too heavy to lift. Letting the pieces fall to the floor is working out just fine for them.
Hate throw politics in here, but this is part of what Project 2025 is all about. Reduced workplace safety and environmental standards, union busting and child labour. And the billionaires just sitting back raking it in and laughing at you. This could be you, guys.
Какой простор для рационализации! Буквально, каждый этап можно изменить для большего удобства и производительности. Взять хотя бы многократное собирание совком изделий. Разве сложно сделать, чтоб из станка они сыпались сразу в контейнер для переноски? Не говоря уже о том, чтобы они сами перемещались на следующий станок по транспортировочной линии. Хотя, возможно, я ошибаюсь, и у них чем больше народу занято - тем лучше.
Wow. I was in modern ball-bearing manufacturing for Ford.. full ISO Quality certifications, etc., the huge lack of any "controls" on these processes is mind-blowing. HOW ABOUT A BOX UNDER THE OUT-FLOW
Now when I go into a Home Depot, I see the hardware aisle in a completely different perspective. That box of 1/4 nuts may have been handled by 50 guys in sandals and robes before they were even boxed
And people say that the English didn’t improve the lot of the brown man! Imagine what it would be without colonialism! ( I’m a descendant of convicts in Australia, and very thankful)
I agree with your name. These people are making product with what is available to them and to the limitations imposed by that, if it does the job, who are you to judge, quality control engineer or not.
Its amazing to me that their processes involve unsafe practices, ancient machinery being run by 12 year olds with no safety guards, poor lighting, no eye protection, substandard materials that are regularly thrown in the dirt, men dipping their hands in pools of acid to fish things out...all for some non-uniform nuts that are made of mild steel that are only good for holding a wheelbarrow together. We were making better hardware in the USA over 100 years ago, probably with these very machines.

I also just wish the people working in these factories had a better life. Lots of dangerous things going on there, but safety isn't a top concern in these Southern Asian countries.
No heat treatment? I sure hope these aren’t being used on any load bearing structures
It might surprise you to know that the vast majority of nuts used in developed countries aren't heat treated either. I had a business next to a company that made millions of bolts, none were heat treated, whether they are heat treated or not depends on the application.
@@TaintedMojo A standard nut that comes with a bolt with 8.8 stamped on its head is not heat treated... You need to go to a higher grade bolt/ nut before various degrees of heat treatment are used.
For all those complaining about efficiency - they are getting the job done. If you put a bucket underneath, you need to make sure it isn't too big or it will get too heavy to lift. Letting the pieces fall to the floor is working out just fine for them.
10:40 I just can't believe this... the guy throwing the lever while his idle left hand remains in the press near the die head.
OSHA would have a field day there
Hate throw politics in here, but this is part of what Project 2025 is all about. Reduced workplace safety and environmental standards, union busting and child labour. And the billionaires just sitting back raking it in and laughing at you. This could be you, guys.
Think of all $$$ saved on tooling and material handling, if everything didn't land in the dirt.
Crazy, crazy, crazy!
अच्छी प्रस्तुति
This is just nuts.....
If the world stopped buying products from companies with no H & E, safely would soon improve and be safer for the workers.
Just place a bucket under the machine to collect the plugs. 😅😅😂😂
I'd hate to think these nuts were required on some quality critical application - Gadzooks!
Какой простор для рационализации! Буквально, каждый этап можно изменить для большего удобства и производительности. Взять хотя бы многократное собирание совком изделий. Разве сложно сделать, чтоб из станка они сыпались сразу в контейнер для переноски? Не говоря уже о том, чтобы они сами перемещались на следующий станок по транспортировочной линии. Хотя, возможно, я ошибаюсь, и у них чем больше народу занято - тем лучше.
По-видимому, там настолько дешёвый труд, что проще поставить ещё одного мужика с совком, чем сделать простейший желоб.
Thats Nuts !
7:21 it's amazing he still has all hind fingers. Next time I tighten down a bolt, I will think of these people with thanks.
Yesterday, these were old sauspans, today they are holding on your truck wheels.
Society develops when people get good nutrition and good food. These people only eat roti and chai. Don't blame them.
What can one say about a comment like that?
Islam??????
@@dennisneo1608 No, racism, hubris and arrogance!
3 brain cells helps!
@7:50 we found the only smart guy who put a container under his work pieces
How sketchy bolts are made😊
That's nuts....
Amazing work 👏 👏
are you taking the piss
Wow. I was in modern ball-bearing manufacturing for Ford.. full ISO Quality certifications, etc., the huge lack of any "controls" on these processes is mind-blowing. HOW ABOUT A BOX UNDER THE OUT-FLOW
Пашут как рабы на галерах, работая в скотских условиях и за гроши😢
Probably safer than a Russian soldier in Ukraine!
And would be a good wage in many countries that make products for 'developed nations'.
Рабский труд - двигатель прогресса!
Might enjoyed it
Now when I go into a Home Depot, I see the hardware aisle in a completely different perspective. That box of 1/4 nuts may have been handled by 50 guys in sandals and robes before they were even boxed
I didn't think we had video cameras in 1850.
Remember this when you order stuff from Temu.
And people say that the English didn’t improve the lot of the brown man! Imagine what it would be without colonialism! ( I’m a descendant of convicts in Australia, and very thankful)
Is this why foreign engines fall apart?
Steel capped safety sandals 😉
Ooo that guy got sandals, he must be a supervisor…
Nice nutz!
Seeing such youngsters is what gets me. Ya the drop it on the ground over and over to pick it up just doesn’t make sense either
12:15. Quality control engineer there. I wouldn't use that stuff on my lawn mower.
I agree with your name. These people are making product with what is available to them and to the limitations imposed by that, if it does the job, who are you to judge, quality control engineer or not.
@ms.annthrope, They only do these videos to amuse all the "American" genius here...after all what else would they have to laugh at?
And your mower is junk in 5 years
I'll bet a lot of those old machines were powerd by steam over head shaft and pulley systems
Wonder if that’s the QC guy at end of vid checking every nut to make sure it spins on the bolt.
At least they still manufacture in Pakistan. Here in Australia we manufacture NOTHING!
Didn’t quite see the tap removal.
I was wondering how that part worked too
Its amazing to me that their processes involve unsafe practices, ancient machinery being run by 12 year olds with no safety guards, poor lighting, no eye protection, substandard materials that are regularly thrown in the dirt, men dipping their hands in pools of acid to fish things out...all for some non-uniform nuts that are made of mild steel that are only good for holding a wheelbarrow together. We were making better hardware in the USA over 100 years ago, probably with these very machines.
