Inside Tesla’s Model 3 Factory

Inside Tesla’s Model 3 Factory
Stamping Tesla Model 3 uses a high-end Schuler servo stamping press to turn giant rolls of steel into Model 3 body parts. There are only 35 such presses in auto manufacturing worldwide, and Tesla says it is the first in the U.S. The equipment has allowed Tesla to crank out unique parts, like the Model 3 front fender, which engineers say has greater depth in a single piece of stamped steel than any other fender in production.

Assembly Putting together the pieces of the car’s body is an area that all automakers automate to varying degrees. However even state-of-the-art factories tend to rely on people to transport parts and load them onto the machines. Car parts are packed together for storage and shipping, and picking them back up is difficult without human fingers.
Seat Factory Car manufacturers hate seats. They're tedious to make and require different skills and materials than the rest of the car. It’s easier to outsource, and no major manufacturer does it all themselves. But relying on suppliers got Tesla into trouble with the Model X, when its engineers designed an extremely difficult-to-make “monopost” seat and an impossible-to-hit timeline. Problems with suppliers set production back by months, and Musk decided he wasn’t going to put up with it again.
Quality Control Tesla says it has 47 robots deployed in scanning stations throughout the body line. They measure 1,900 points in every Model 3 to match them to design specs—with a precision of 0.15 millimeters. Torque measurements are also automatically recorded for every bolt that’s fastened.

Let’s give an applause to all the
Minds behind these fantastic robots that do most of the work

Hopefully Berlin Gigafactory will make better cars in terms of finishing, so I can dream of ordering Model Y...

How are the panel gaps and glass placement so inconsistent when its assembled entirely by robots?

Almost! The establishing shot and some of the rest is Giga New York. . . .

Genial Il y a même une trentaine d’années, tout cela aurait été considéré comme de la science fiction le passage sur les soudeurs latéraux simultanés, on se croirait dans Alien manque plus que l’image cinématique !

[MannyCuadra]

Wow, this is amazing. No humans at all. Just robots lol :)

I was going to get model 3 but after watching numerous quality issue videos I settled with Hyundai ion q

[Tonton-Flingueur]

I don't know why but this is scary

[nuzcxdt]

Come on Tesla hurry and send me my car

[snehashrestha]

what should one study to have a job at tesla ( in case of engineering ?

Hier kann man sehr schön erkennen wie die unterschiedlichen Spaltmaße millimetergenau eingebaut werden 🤣
Here you can see very well how the different gap dimensions are installed with millimeter precision

[governmentlab]

I don't think those robots will buy a car.

[davidnightingale]

Tesla - AMC of the future, workers holding hands doing the job one person could do. Robot implementation leaves a lot to be desired.

[kaibakker]

why are you guys dont love the sound of a exhaust

[Invicibles]

Giga Berlin and Giga Texas will ensure adequate supply of Tesla vehicles worldwide including Africa...

[Amine]

Ok, but you must imagine solution for true life in lany country with no roads no station

[BRBallin]

Kudos to the bright and hard working minds responsible for designing, engineering, and manufacturing these incredible vehicles. I'm willing to stretch my budget to buy a new $55k model 3. Otherwise I would've settled for a used ICE in the $30k mark.

Soon it will be all robots better have a backup plan in place
