strike that, basic robot made by KUKA starts from 11k but has no equipment, so at 70k it would have full equipment, reducing the total costs from 1,2bn to like 400 millions or so

I visited Wolfsburg on a day trip (from Berlin) in October 2023 and got lucky with a space on the VW factory tour, it's a nominal amount (from memory about 15 Euros). That stamping shop at the start of this video - again from memory I think our guide said it covers the area of 10 football pitches and just under half a million separate metal panels are produced each day. It's absolutely staggering and the tour was the highlight of my week's vacation. VW employ about 62,000 people in Wolfsburg alone, that's about the size of the entire British army.

I work in this very Volkswagen plant, in press tool construction. We make the pressing tools that were shown at the beginning, I rarely see the tools in use, but I always find it impressive to feel this enormous power when I stand in front of the press. This noise and this automatism is overwhelming. Down in the cellar there is even more noise and you can hear the rattling of the waste plates.

Cool watching this after receiving my 2024 golf R last Saturday.

Then of course other robots with bigger loading capacity 300-400 kg, are about maybe 50-70k Euro. Kuka, Fanuc, Abb whatever, prices are pretty similar. Yes if we talk about the final price per unit with everything functional, robot programmer, tool design mounted on robot etc etc, can be just for one robot around 100kEuro. But 1.2M never, I think they mean something else when they say 1.2M euroes per robot.

Cool. 🎉

Just seeing how briskly the body panels get produced shows you how fast the Golf can get made. It only compounds the fact that Golf GTI production for North America is artificially being limited to create some sort of rare-model demand that really isn't there because the current generation has many design faults that customers are turned off by. The sheer greediness of the inflated price of what was supposed to be a nameplate that was more affordable, and a "people's car" just isn't anymore and it's mostly due to corporate greed at a manufacturer level and then at the franchise level.

£600 billion worth of robots in one factory 😳mustve been a typo

You guys arguing over catalogue prices, while u dont realize that the effector is custom made and custom engineered for that exact process. You have any idea how much that costs? Ive seen a kuka R&D plant from the inside, and they are mimickinhg the production lines they are supplying in their halls first and test and optimize absolutely everything, before building it up at the customer plant (eg VW). Of course the base robot is not much, but that exact robot in that production line for that specific task is way more expensive then that. You are comparing apples and oranges. It could also be possible, that the internal engineering and process development is priced into that claim, but Im pretty sure its upwards of 300k per robot on average.

Factory sound, background music and dialogue, I think you are overdoing it. People with hearing Impairment can not hear your dialogue.

6000 drones costing $100 million each is an absurdly incorrect statement. That would equal $600 billion. The VW group factory in Wolfsburg, Lower Saxony, would have to assemble cars longer than the thousand year reich to monetize that plant. FYI, the city of Wolfsburgh was founded by the government of the 3rd reich. By the way, the orange drones are manufactured by Kuka one of the most famous and important company's in Deutschland.

I hope they don’t still using the dq200 Dsg. It’s a shame that the mk7 has that gearbox.
