I own an Audi and work in this DX space in South Africa. To see this how Industry 4.0 is being led in Germany is very encouraging. Congratulations Audi.
Robotics will be creating a gap between the haves and the have nots that will be as great as the gap between apes and humans. The society of humans with access to the benefits of these incredible robotic factories will be separated from a society of humans whose existence will grow more and more primitive and destitute. Human Greed can not be satiated.
*Hyrule Hero*....Aha, but who's to say that extremely high tech robots will not be able to create more robots. The era of *science non-fiction* has arrived, so that maybe stock holders will own a vehicle manufacturing plant, but the entire factory will be entirely automated, with vehicles coming off the production lines without a single human interaction. Supplies to the factory I imagine, would continue as normal. I tend to think that's it's doable, but of course it's how we humans initially programme the robots in the first place...
David Hamilton Because Robots have a program made by a human, they cannot just get their own personality and build more robots because they are NOT made of carbon. They are NOT living creatures and they won't ever be, because for a true artificial intelligence, you would need to reconstruct the human brain, wich is not possible. EVERY robot follows a step by step program, even those "self learning" robots.
That assembly is slow but they can run it 24/7 365 plus with the google glass and HTC virtual reality, anyone can be taken off the street, trained to do anything and be ready to go in 24 hrs, so if anyone doesn't like how things are, they can easily be replaced. Also, with no conveyors because of the drones and free moving machines, some trucks can pull up and offload all that stuff, and anywhere can instantly be turned into a production facility. You don't need to take forever to set up a traditional assembly line based production facility with conveyor belts and heavy machinery that's fixed in place and takes forever to move if you wan't to adjust your production line.
This is genius. During the day you can have employees (who are much quicker) work and then close up shop and allow the smart factory to take over with light supervision.
love audi - it's all i drive. with that being said... do we really need flying steering wheels delivered by drones? why does it have to fly? can we keep it real please?
Вы самые крутые,ребята!!!Especially the serious man who was in the frame with the wires and cool as well guys who wore glasses and did everything in virtual reality! Is this really the way cars do, people? It's certainly a masterpiece, steeper not, you are really worthy of an Oscar !!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!Bravo!!!I want to have a wheelbarrow of your masterwork process !!!!! It will really be an honor for me!Дай Бог!
Muss sehr angenehm sein vom Geräuschverhalten her wenn etliche Drohnen durch eine Produktionshalle fliegen ^^ Jetzt weiß ich wenigstens warum Audi so hochpreisig ist. Bei der ganzen Technik, die muss ja auch finanziert werden =D
do you know how much it goes to have "robots do robot things automatically"? If it's automated, someone had to teach a piece of metal to do human stuff.
^Aerodynamic testing of Audi chassis for intended driving speeds. Joking aside are those just driving slow cause the next operation is a slight bottleneck anyway and they're only driving the speed to get there on time, or is that as fast as they go anywhere in the production line?
Sehr gut! In Zukunft hat niemand mehr Arbeit, und weil keiner mehr Arbeit hat kann man sich auch kein Auto mehr Leisten. Für was Auto wenn man nicht zur Arbeit muß? Alles läuft nach Plan! Sehr Gut. Außerdem werden Autos nicht immer günstiger. Wer soll sie sich noch Leisten?
@ 6:00 - patterning bench. good idea. "teaches the robot to install plugs at exact spots. @ 8:00 - air drones w/ parts. inefficient but interesting for memo's and what-nots. @ 9:30 - optical harness on human. inefficient. installing a gasket is for a robot. @10:30 - IA operator drill. ?what's the point? ?phantom interior design drill? @ 12:20 - laser etching of different materials. human vacuuming of dust. inefficient. @ 13:00 - remote sensing and guidance of human to unplug robot. inefficient. Overall an interesting but BASIC presentation of the capability of AUDI Smart Factory. Rating - 2 stars out of possible 5 stars.
10:30 is clearly about Smart Engineering, an integral part of smart factories. Regarding all other points: This video clearly presents no more than a manufacturer's first steps in exploring smart factory solutions. That is the whole smart factory concept: just develop new tech. Applications will be found anyway, if not now than in the near future.
Wenn die Assistenzsysteme in den Autos auch so funktionieren würden wie die Robotet in der Fertigung, wäre dem Kunden mehr geholfen. Für die Autos sind wohl eher Bastlergruppen zuständig.
So why haven't they developed a industrial robot hand for the more delicate parts of the production yet! , the robots need hands so they can feel what they see.
so if that guy didn't get that plug in right, and he walked away with the unit, would it show a frowny face, yelling nein nein nein and just start chasing him?
Despite that "smart" movements of quite a few robots, the most vital jobs like assembling are still carried out by hands. And by the way, why the lonely worker under the car body walking without safety helmet and company uniform??)))
Everytime i see automation or smart technology in a work place I don't think wow that's amazing! I think how many people will lose a job, automation ain't always smart
This is what it should have been like back in 2000... 18 years ago... Another 18 years from now and this will be almost the same as now.. So slow moving and when will driving cameras be built into cars as standard...?? Maybe in another 20 years time i guess...
nur weil es machbar ist, heisst es nicht das es gut ist. In der realen Produktion ist so gut wie nichts von dem gezeigten wirtschaftlich und scho garnicht sinnvoll.
@ Arno Nym Gewiss ist mancherlei Gezeigtes unter einem experimentellen Hintergrund zu sehen; Die mögliche Anzahl nahe der Produktionslinie fliegender Drohnen ist begrenzt. Dennoch kann diese Art des Transports in einzelnen Fälle eine interessante Ergänzung zu bisherigen Methoden sein.
Doch, es ist sehr sinnvoll... in der Produktion passieren häufig Fehler, aber da die Autos fest auf dem Band sitzen, können sie nicht aus diesem entfernt werden, um den Fehler sofort zu beheben; sie müssen fertig gebaut werden... danach müssen sie WIEDER zerlegt werden, um den Fehler zi beheben. Dieses Problem wird hier gelöst.
Kommentator ergibt sich das nächste Problem, Teile die immer mehr JIT angestellt werden, würden dann durcheinander kommen somit auch nicht wirklich sinnvoll bzw nur sehr eingeschränkt.
Quello che non viene mostrato in questo filmato è come vengono create le carrozzerie.... Sono create da robot CO.MA.U. (FIAT) e questo la dice lunga sul basso livello di automazione e tecnologia di Audi.
CSCOTTREDFIELD We never recommend laying off employees in digital transformation. Allocation, re-education, and maximize efficiency would be the recommended option. Its people that makes the final calls after all. When people are all replaced by robots, nobody would have to work ever again :)
mohamed zyad ait batahar the drone concept is for example if a wrong steering wheel or any other wrong part was delivered, they can very fast bring the right part to its installation place and don't have to run down the production line for a long time
Pr04basher ja die Entwicklung und Herstellung der Roboter, aber das wird dann auch automatisiert, aber danach heißt es villt. 1 Techniker der 5 Robot überwacht und wartet.
und dennoch sind Firmen auf der ganzen Welt auf der suche nach abeitern... allein in dieser Region hier, werden für solche Arbeiten ca. 300 Arbeiter gesucht... und das für nur eine Firma... und sollte sich das irgendwas wirklich auf die Arbeitslosigkeit auswirken, sollte man eher das System ändern... dann muss eben keiner mehr 12h am Tag arbeiten, um das selbe zu verdienen, da es ja ein Roboter macht... hier ist dann eben die Politik gefragt es müssten mehr Menschen arbeiten können, weil man sich am Ende die Arbeit teilt, die noch von Hand gemacht werden muss... das ersparte Geld darf eben nicht zu 100% in der Tasche der Firma landen... aber bis wir an dem Punkt sind, an dem das relevant ist, ist es noch ein weiter weg
"Lame Factory" would have been more accurate. Decades old technology...and MOST of it moves as slowly as it did decades ago. I feel like I was watching a video from the 90's. Get with the times Outtie. The car takes longer to build and costs more. How is this forward thinking? No one cares about about snooty "German Engineering" anymore. Give me a Japanese engineered car at half the price with double the lifespan. All at a quarter of the maintenance and ownership cost. Now THAT'S forward thinking.
Most of this stuff is pointless and inefficient, more like a cargo cult thinking "hey look, drones and VR, we smart now". Meanwhile humans still have to do actual work like putting small parts together or plugging cables into sockets.
Ich geb euch mal n tip ihr Schlaumeier. Bei 10:20 ist der Tisch für stehende arbeiten zu niedrig. Aber hauptsache so'ne dämliche brille auf. Weil man ja auch nach dem 10. Mal noch nicht weis, dass da zuerst eine Dichtung drauf muss.
