Robot Assembly: BMW

The first video is 15 min and highly recommended. No words spoken or written...pay attention to the details.

  1. It's kind of freaky to watch the way those paint machines open and close the doors, hood, and trunk. And were those blue sensors mapping out where to place the adhesive on the rear window? Those Germans have efficiency down to a T, ya?

    That what I took that process to be. Good eye. Right arm...etc. (;

  3. Wow! from start to finish!!! I used to work at a whole sale distributor of electrical parts. This included Allen-Bradley Rockwell Automation products. I can only venture to guess that this factory might have a few bits and pieces of said automation products in place. Most of what we sold was to fisheries, refineries, and lumber mills. What fascinates me is the way the robotic arms move, it almost seems organic, yet its completely mechanical. i am really glad I took the time to watch these. Thanks!
