      Good catch, and thank you for the comment! Just to clarify for everyone, what we observed was that there was a 15cm delta in height from the floor pan to the bottom fastener for the IP between the MY and M3, (Model Y was 63cm from floor to fastener, Model 3 was 48cm), and when we measured the height of the seat riser, we found that it was 13cm. So, by lifting the IP by 15cm and the seat by only 13cm, you get the perceived effect of 2 additional centimeters of head room. Thanks for tuning in!

      @@MunroLive How can someone get more head room by lifting the instrument panel? That makes no sense. The head room is between the seat and the interior ceiling regardless of where the instrument panel is. What you really get is 2 cm more height between the (raised) floor and the lower part of the instrument panel, so it's more height for legs.

      JakesOnline I work in manufacturing/aerospace. The longer I am exposed to advanced design/engineering/manufacturing, the more amazed I am that we have the technology and machinery that we have in the modern world.
      Cars especially, have a huge number of unique parts that must interact with each other perfectly, while lasting a huge and strenuous life cycle, while also needing to be affordable to the average person, and cheap/easy to build. It’s absolutely mind blowing. And it’s the reason Elon talks about the machine that builds the machine. It’s so complex and amazing even genius minds are in awe of what we can achieve as humans working together
      My favorite part though is probably the fact that most car bodies are a reproduction of a hand sculpted model made by humans. When you look at a car on the road, remember that artists/craftspeople literally sculpted it out of clay then made the tooling for the body (the molds) from those hand sculptures. Our cars are literally sculptures. Rolling artwork that take us everywhere, and last more miles than any covered wagon could ever dream of 😉

    Thank you Sandy and Co for this content. It’s so neat to be able to see the complex inner workings of some of the most advanced technology on the planet!
    It really puts into perspective how incredible modern cars are, and I am incredibly grateful that we have the manufacturing technology to make these machines generally affordable to so many humans.
    If I imagine this was a one-off hand built machine, with each and every part needing to be designed, built, and assembled by a single person, I imagine many lifetimes of tireless work being poured into it it, and a value of many millions of dollars worth of work. Yet here we are with teams of people, and advanced machines, able to pump out something like 1,000 of these every day and sell them for a price hundreds of thousands of people can pay.

      The manufacturing of a Tesla car is hardly the most advanced technology on the planet... When it comes to cars that are being sold to the public, MAYBE. Most advanced technology today would be 7nm semiconductors, rocket engines, jet engines and other stuff that needs an electron microscope just to diagnose... (drugs etc)
      I am not forgetting there are high performance semiconductors in a Tesla, however, anyone can run Openpilot on supported cars, and there isn't that significant of a technological difference between any GPU being manufactured today.

      I'd have a problem if I were a cashiere too; I thought about it because use to be a busboy. If i were told to 'keep the change' as a cashiere I wouldn't have a way to know whether that means u the person or u the company, keep the change. Its not explicit. If I then pocketed it then it'd be theft, If I didn't and my drawer was over, i've heard some say being over is as bad as being short in that it suggests u overcharged someone or gave them incorrect change. If it was explicit that it was intended for me, managers my see me pocket it on camera and just think i'm skimming from the register, one way to do that so it doesn't show up would be to give incorrect change and pocket the difference and everything balances. As a busboy the problem I had is i'd get direct tips but then the people would be gone so quick if I pocketed it it'd appear to managers, customers, other busboys and waitresess who are all around u that ur pocketing a waitresess tip, and i'm aware enough to be ware of that so i'd always just toss it on the table and let the waitress have it, that way nobody thinks i'm stealing. So many busboy tips i'd just cough up cause of that. Only way to do it right, is put it into their pocket urself. I made the waiter/waitresses do that when they'd tip me cause otherwise stuck in the same situation of having managers, customers, and other waitresses, and other busboys wonder why u got money in ur hand and putting it into ur pocket once the waitress/waiter has already walked away. :P As for customers i'd just toss their busboy tips onto the table and keep on walking. It doesn't look good in some of these professions to be seen putting money in ur pocket, assumptions are made. Those assumptions are not worth the tip. If a manager is nearby and a person is often told to keep the change then they can ask what do I do, this is now common. I guess it would have to become common and have manager buyin otherwise it'd just look wrong. Like having an actual tip jar would make it easier. Could even discuss who do these tips belong to.

Would make sense to run the defroster like a dehumidifier with evap to strip moisture and condenser to reheat the air. There has to be resistance heat someplace to deal with a cold soaked car. Will be interesting to see how they do that.

      @@carholic-sz3qv Not trying to say Tesla will innovate in home AC, but I find it hard to defend the existing industry. There are good systems out there but the cost is so prohibitive that they are rarely used. This all comes down to the high cost of labor and the failure to innovate around this limitation. Even when you do see a variable speed high seer system, it's still only supporting a single zone most times. The ducting is terrible and very little innovation happening and what is happening is aimed at charging more money. You don't see any improvements where it's both better and cheaper. Of course homes are poorly insulated but it's even worse than that. Most homes are insulated completely wrong. In the south if you have an insulated attic floor rather than the roof itself being insulated then it's just terrible and you are losing 20%-30% of your heating and cooling energy. The AC industry can't do anything about that but they can recolonize the issues and provide solutions like ducts that don't leak 20% of their energy if you are going through an unconditioned space.

Tesla does this-> removes weight from where it's not needed and can put it where it matters like the battery.

      Good catch, good analogy, and thank you keeping us on our toes! We always appreciate feedback. Just to clarify for everyone, what we observed was that there was a 15cm delta in height from the floor pan to the bottom fastener for the IP between the MY and M3, (Model Y was 63cm from floor to fastener, Model 3 was 48cm), and when we measured the height of the seat riser, we found that it was 13cm. So, by lifting the IP by 15cm and the seat by only 13cm, you get the perceived effect of 2 additional centimeters of head room. Thanks for tuning in!

    I've never seen an overmolding like that. Do they surface treat the aluminum or is the plastic relying only on the ridge? The overmoldings are even done on bent parts, I'm surprised they can get decent tolerance between the bar and the tool without excessive flashing. Is the aluminum bar just an extrusion?
    It is pretty clear that FEA played a big role in the way the PA wraps around the bar, from a structural point of view. What an interesting part, from a manufacturing perspective.

    • @bradcomis1066
      @bradcomis1066 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can see at 5:47 that there is some sort of flashing or plastic over run that is parallel to the length of the beam. Since these are all in a line I would guess that there is a low spot in the extrusion that is allowing some plastic to squeak by in the mold. It is possible that the beam is hydroformed and then dropped into the injection mold afterwards. That would probably allow for a more accurate profile than using conventional bending dies. The flashing on the beam doesn't really matter since the part is hidden from view.

    • @MunroLive
      @MunroLive  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      This isn't necessarily the first time that we've seen one of these cross car beams, but the technology is not widely used at this point. The aluminum portion is an extrusion that gets hydroformed prior to being overmolded.

    Can you invetigate the 3 extra refridgerant pipes going in to the dash? Have they fitted an a/c condenser coil in situe of the electric heater? My guess is that the existing plate and fin Evaporator cant take the pressure required to work as a condenser, and there are 3 small pipes (2 in 1 out) used to connect the condenser so that they can take the pressure required while maintaining adaquate flow.
