how do you weave a carbon fiber A-pillar?

ehhh thats nothing, you should see the machine that makes press-fit cam lobes on all the newer style assembled camshafts. Itll pump out a million lobes an hour with perfect dimensions

I wanted to take one, but its a special process they didnt want shown to the world. But you basically have a playdoh machine shooting out red hot 30' bars , then they cut it off and smack it into perfect shape 100 at a time...it was crazy
 
i bet a million parts an hour is pretty amazing through put. thats

thats only like 16666 parts a minute lol,

the only thing i have to compete against that is a scanner our company built, i did the controls for it with a total power output of 1.5 megawatts twin 700kw solid state ac/dc/ac inverters at 1khz.

you have not lived till you pulled the trigger on something that is the equivalent of turning on 25,000 100 watt light bulbs on at once. its currently making axle shafts for ford

whoops, i meant million a day. But yeah, electricity is sweet. Ive been to steel foundrys that heat all their metal electrically, how about a $1,000,000.00 electric bill every month
 
I'm always amazed at how fast they can run the Dies we build. The presses we have for tryout only run upto 30 cycles a minute I think the big three have a few that get into the 40-60's.

We got stuck running gas tanks for the fusion because Ford kept blowing up a press last month. I can see why they have robots doing that stuff really killer work :( i was happy to get back to my cushy CNC job thats for sure :thumbsup:
