I was really super grateful that Michael Hauser (Torno's CEO), gave me a personal factory tour! It was incredible to get to talk to him for a few hours, and get an in depth look at some of their production processes. And don't worry, I filmed most of it...so you guys get to come along for the ride too!!

Man, I've got no idea who Tornos is, but that CEO makes me want to buy their product! Seems like an awesome dude with a real passion for his craft.

@AandHAutomationllc 5 лет назад

The is a CEO who understands culture and investing in young mind. Congratulations on an amazing product and company. Hope to use your products soon.

Pretty Amazing Tornos is willing to open the doors of their 100 year Old technology Center where it ALL Happens. Thanks Michael for the Tour!

That was a great video! The CEO seemed very accommodating. He exuded a very sincere passion for his company and their craft. Im excited to see what you do with that new expensive toy!

Great tour! Sympatic and down to earth CEO, taking his time doing this tour)

@LowRoller420 4 года назад

I worked with a guy who grew up in the Tornos valley. He told us his father would dig out watch parts from under his fingernails when he got home from work. He was the only machinist I worked with that was allowed to drink wine with his cheese at lunch.

@juandejesus2497 5 лет назад

I had the opportunity to work at a Tornos loyal medical shop in Connecticut. They were a state of the art shop. 4 of the US's first Swissnanos, 2 Multiswiss, 4 EvoDecos, 2 ST26s, and another assortment of 15 or so Deco 13s. Best shop I've had the opportunity to work for.

@user-jd2wo4yn8y Год назад

It is very fateful to meet you. I have more than 50 Swiss-type turning-milling automatic machine tools, including Tornas GT26, DT20, Miyano 42, Citizen A20, L20, etc., but we do not have Tornas nanos series, hope to have the opportunity Can cooperate and communicate with your company. Courage from China.

@omkarnadkarni1096 2 года назад

Hi John Being in engineering field For past 30 years, I must say your video is a kind of delightful treat in it self. Thanks for making such beautiful film and I must appreciate support of Tornos for being so libral to show off all the operations. It's great to know what there work culture and system they work with. It's like many companies will come and go in this competitive market, they may steal the technology but one thing they can't steal is there culture. Great video once again and thanks warm regards

@Raptorman0909 5 лет назад

It just goes to show the power and importance of significant social media types, particularly the ones that are grounded in the industry they're in and not doing the Logan Paul shtick. Guys like John Grimsmo and John Saunders are important to the industry and the industry realizes the value that they provide. Make no mistake, the CEO hopes this exposure leads to sales and that's just fine -- if they have a great product, and they do, they should benefit from the exposure.

@Sharklops 4 года назад

I think what sets the people you're talking about apart from the rest is that they aren't really even "social media types" in the first place. To me, that term describes the Logan Pauls of the world who see themselves as a product they're selling and their audience is the customer. If their followers disappeared so would they. I consider people like Grimsmo and Saunders to be "community builders". They have vocations they are passionate about and could continue to provide for themselves and their families if RU-vid shut down tomorrow. RU-vid simply allowed them to share the things they love doing with others. Their pure enthusiasm is infectious and has naturally gathered all kinds of people together around them. Fellow professionals, hobbyists, and people who'd never given a moment's thought to machining or pocket knives - we came for different reasons but all stayed for the essentially the same one: it's nice to be around nice people who love what they do. Just compare this comment section to Logan Paul's and it will be obvious to anyone that they are not the same thing.

@coreyb4073 5 лет назад

welcome to the dark side, the worst part about swiss lathes is they have a tendency to breed, I have 4 now and 2 more due next month. been running them since 2008 and love the baby machines.

@movax20h 4 года назад

I live in Switzerland, and would love to work there. So many smart and dedicated people, engineers, machinists, designers, management, software developers. And they make really unique machines with a lot of huge impact in real world.

@arnljotseem8794 5 лет назад

Wow. Such a cool factory tour. Amazed at the CEO's enthusiasm for the company, their products, people and their future. No wonder the make such great products. Can you give us a hint at what a machine like yours is costing? Please.

@movax20h 5 лет назад

Really cool guy. They run everything so clean, organized, with many talented people around and make no compromises. So nice for them to be really future oriented and also working close and well with customer.

@JohnnyProfit13 5 лет назад

John, I just love how high your passion is! Man it's super fun to watch these videos. Most of us are here because we love your products and passion obviously. But these are the videos that give us the glimpses to how Grimsmo ticks. It never gets old. I love watching success and good fortune favor you and your family and team.

@MrSoulisTG 5 лет назад

Fun fact... (i dont know if somebody else mentioned it before)... The companys name "TORNOS"... with the same exact pronunciation... in Greek language is written "ΤΟΡΝΟΣ" (almost the same letters, actually they are the same but in Greek)... and it translates to the English word "LATHE" !!! So... TORNOS = ΤΟΡΝΟΣ = LATHE !!! You can check it on Google Translate if you dont believe me !!!

@DanielPierce 5 лет назад

They actually anodize the titanium to give it micropores that the bone can grow into, and at the end of manufacturing they irradiate the screws to make them completely free of any organic compounds.

@bcbloc02 5 лет назад

A note about shop windows, they should always be on the North side so you never get direct sunlight. If you get sunlight hitting a machine you can for sure expect to be chasing tolerance issues.

This was very cool to see, too bad I was a punk ass kid when I worked there and didn't appreciate how cool it really was, it was just a job in my eyes. I also wasn't into CNC and manufacturing yet, I mean I was doing it I just didn't like/enjoy or appreciate it until it came to me making my own products lol

@TandaMadison 5 лет назад

Absolutely nothing against SCRUM approach but I had a good laugh in that segment because my personal experience (probably because it was not run well) was that we were always in meetings and never at our desks programming and designing.

@TandaMadison 5 лет назад

@@John-ik2eg I'm not arguing against any of these methodologies. These are world class companies making remarkable products. My experience was with a small company and I was wearing far to many hats which resulted in lots of meetings for me when we introduced Agile/SCRUM. I think some people in government and education have the wrong idea about Makerspaces/Incubators. An Incubator doesn't produce talented people. It does however attract talented people and let them explore and demonstrate that talent. I think companies like Tornos have recognized that Instead of throwing a big net around the throngs of people being pushed through trade schools, it's far more efficient to set out some bait like a incubator and wait for the Grimsmos of the world to walk in.

It all depends on what you're making. John was making tiny stop pins, screws, etc on that "giant" Nakamura Tome lathe, and those parts would be better suited to a smaller, faster, machine that's more specialized. Like a Swiss lathe.
