@@zatgeye7320 so most people are what, worthless trash? are you sure that bolt was *that* good they couldn't have just used any old bolt? was it not already toleranced appropriately in cad?
What kind of a dumb comment, is that? Even as a joke it's moronic, because of how impossible that is on all levels. And no that doesn't always make a joke funny.
Like a CNC programmer and ex machinist .. Absolutely cannot understand what incredible on that for u ? Literally every day in work ... and we creating what u designers and engineers designed. Sounds like u missing huge part of ur job. Like its kinda essential to know hot others people manufacture things u designed. For design it well. ... Or .. ?
Normally when you design a part the engineer draws a sketch first to discuss the possible options. Then when a solution is chosen you start with modeling the 3D model etc. and thats what i think they were trying to show there.
When I did technical drawing at school, the colouring was called "rendering", and was to be done in a very precise, uniform way, all the lines going in one direction and with one consistent weight of pressing on the paper for each face. I think part of it is to make complex 3D objects easier to view rather than just the pencilled outline, and also could be used to demonstrate different materials - a glass surface, for example, was always shown by two pale blue diagonal lines, and no other fill.
This is the kind of stuff I think about when I see or hold something and then I go deep into rabbit holes when it comes to antiques like, “How tf did they used to make THAT?!”
You think so? As an engineering student I see the basic steps of manufacturing components. 1. The technical drawing. 2. Production. And 3. Quality check.
the attention to detail on bolts etc is like that on many many cars. Just f1 makes it look cool. Nothing fancy about designing or producing a bolt even in a machine like that. Cnc machines takes the effort out of it tbh. Still can’t believe an f1 team uses messy wax to protect gauges that’s so 20 years ago.
This is definitely one of the best video I've seen so far. Love the whole process, this is amazing and make you think how much work there's behind even just for one bolt! Please do more like this, it's absolutely stunning, informative and catching at the same time!
Unless your jeep has centerlock wheels made of magnesium with an Inconel threaded shaft, and a highly engineered lock nut… no… I don’t think it’s quite the same
@@Jlinwoodjackson i know my jeep isnt an f1 car, thanks for pointing that out. i also know you saw the video and therefore, you saw the technician slapping the tire into place... which is what i was talking about. i've been to a GP and i did the pit experience in the "fanzone" so im quite familiar with how different it is from a normal road car. that doesn't change the fact that he slapped that tire though.
@@Jlinwoodjackson hitting your tires into place, like they did in this video, has nothing to do with the type of tires your vehicle has. It's all about the method of getting any type of tire onto it mounts. I bite into an apple, using my front teeth, just like I do with a steak. I'm not saying a steak and an apple are the exact same thing.
Everything that matters but doesn’t get attention is either not making money or even worse an endless money vacuum. Cant have both in life either capitalism or communism both have pros/cons 😂
That was really cool...I just had to swap a Torx bolt for a water bottle cage fastener on my new derailleur cable anchor, this last weekend. To keep the bike running. I was fairly stoked with that.😅
All that beautiful work, pain staking precision and designing, decades of experience and talent put to work, and how do we make sure the tyre is snug in place? Just whack it a few times 😂
Probably one of the best videos I’ve seen on RU-vid. That was put together so well, no talking, and best of all no music.. just the sweet sound of manufacturing insanely expensive products. Now how much do we figure that bolt costs? All in probably $10,000?
I love it and it inspires me to do the same in my marketing job. To put your heart into every small detail, because they are all part of the big picture.
my dads a machinist (not for f1, i wish) and it’s honestly so awesome to understand most of what they’re doing (towards the middle) is it’s such a fun craft
It’s amazing how much work is put in to each and every single part on the cars, and then they have spare parts, and also spare cars. And all of that work could possibly go to waste because of a issue or a bad driver or a crash. Nobody gives engineers as much credit as they should get.
Yeah but it’s the same in every industry. Bolts are designed. Cut. Checked for accuracy. Painted/coated. Engraved. Delivered. Most of this is done by machines/computers elsewhere, and not captured like this
Similar stuff happens with the raf and other airforces. From an airshow I bought an old Vulcan part. It came in a bag and had these tags from around 1983 that declared it was serviceable. I had been told that this part was used on a Vulcan. It was a navigators switch, imagine all the thousands of parts out there that need to be tested every so often by a person. It’s truly incredible. However that was a long time ago so maybe there’s a better computerised way of doing it.
It's not surprising at all imo. Carbon fiber responds horribly to threading in general, the layers of weave doesn't have the strength at that thickness as it builds strength through multiple layers. Perhaps if you drenched the threaded hole in binder, but I think it would have issues with stripping threads as it's either too hard (and therefore brittle) or delamination (literally pulling the sheets of carbon fibre weave apart). The only way a threaded hole of carbon holds well is with few threads per inch, which won't have much thread engagement unless it's a really thick part. I don't think it's applicable in F1. But hey, I'm just a layman and could be entirely wrong.
@@NuclearHeadshot this sounds correct to me, a mechanical engineering student. I believe it's preferred to bond CFRP together instead of bolting where you would normally weld it, since it's so bad at taking threads and metal inserts add weight and complexity. It's also not a material suitable for any engine internals, mainly because of the heat.
That’s more like thousands for that 1 bolt. You had the engineer, cnc machinist, quality inspector, finish coating guy, laser etch guy, parts guy, parts runner, mechanic, and the driver.. heck don’t forget the video crew as well lol 😅
I’m a part or FSUK ( Formula Student ), while we do everything f1 does but challenges rather than races ( which I wish we did) as a form of scoring points, it is so much fun finding sponsors each year and going through the process of building a car ground up: the aero, suspension, chassis. Truly satisfying and rewarding experience
To many people, this kind of precision seems over the top. To the racing world not so much. A lot of auto innovation started at F1. These are perfect vehicles. And they still break.
