Episode: Peterbilt truck

go to top

mega version:

At the Peterbilt factory, workers are busy building Model 387 trucks - titans of the road, made to pull vehicles weighing up to 36 tonnes. To produce this aerodynamic marvel, the Peterbilt design team partnered with its engineers to create the ideal full-scale model. However, with more than 20,000 parts per vehicle, turning this truck from a lifesize model into a full-fledged vehicle made of aluminium and steel is a formidable task. Making things more difficult, each truck is individually made to fit exact customer specifications so no two trucks are built exactly alike. Giant robotic arms, capable of lifting over 8000 kilograms, are put to the test of hoisting the truck's entire chassis. When robotic ""Rembrandts"" are used to paint the truck's cab with any of more than 5,000 different paint colours, assemblers must assemble by hand a custom-made dashboard featuring anywhere from 50 to 60 connections and roughly 300 metres of wiring. With its mechanical brute strength and human creativity, this mega factory brings Peterbilt's aerodynamic king of the long-distance fleet to the road.

Ferdinand Porsche was a self-taught automotive designer and engineer. In 1900, at the age of 25, he designed the first hybrid gasoline-electric car for an Austrian company. Then in the ‘30s he sold the German government on his dream of a small, simple car that would be affordable for the masses. That car became the Volkswagen Beetle.

The Phantom is the first Rolls-Royce motorcar to be introduced since the company was acquired by BMW in 1998. Each Phantom is a unique combination of state-of-the-art technology and old-world craftsmanship, constructed with meticulous attention to detail. Manufacture of the Phantom begins in Unterhallerau, Germany, where its strong, stiff and lightweight space frame chassis is built. Each space frame and body shell assembly is then sent to BMWs factory in Dingolfing, Germany for corrosion-resistance treatment and primer paint.
