- I visited the Rolls Royce Engine factory in Derby, England in January. This vlog takes a detailed look at how Rolls Royce build the XWB engine, the exclusive engine on Airbus A350. We also take a look at the various engine test bed sites, including their latest test site bed 80 which is under construction.
In the vlog Rolls Royce explain what went wrong with their Trent 1000 engines on the Boeing 787, also their future plans for the much bigger Ultra Fan Engine.
From a boy of 17 to a 55 year old retiring, I`ve worked on / produced most RR stuff be they RR UK or RR Germany, but I also was just only 1 of 2 people making Airbus landing gear parts.. So proud to watch this Video SAM, thank you,.. Ian, now 72 years of age.
They had big fuck up few years ago and many faulty engines.
That's a great lifetime opportunity 👏👏👍
@@nnnnnn3647 lol
@@nnnnnn3647 yeah, Qantas 32. A single imperfectly drilled oil passage almost crashed an a380. They tired to do a secret recall on all of those Trent 900 engines but it got out anyway. They basically just stopped talking to the press until it was addressed. Had it not been for the A380 having 300 miles of internal wiring (the debris from the explosion actually severed the fly by wire controls for the side sticks, thankfully it has a duplicate set on the other side) it certainly would have been the first and only A380 crash and the first and only fatal crash for Quantas.
Many many kudos to the Rolls engineers !! You guys keep reinventing the wheel. I am actually checking these videos out to soothe my mind. I have invested heavily into RR stock and I’m going to keep it that way regardless of what happens price wise. I have a lot of faith in this company. The world would be very different and run by a little mustachioed fellow if not for you guys ! The beauty of these machines is on another level.
Currently you are podcasting a variety of videos which included most aspects of aviation industry instead of just cabin experiences. You are a true AVGEEK. We all appreciate your efforts.
Agreed, love that he has more variety now. great youtuber
Yes, definitely really legit content. Hope to invite Sam once to our NATO base of the RAF. BTW I've been at the plant when I was 7 but can't remember a thing so much sentimental value here.
He ain't podcasting
Looks more clinically clean than a Hospital. Same factory that produced the incredible Rolls Royce Dart turboprop engine. Over 7000 were made.
@Tech Just once or sometimes not.
It probably is, both in the US and UK. People go into hospitals with all kinds of diseases, infections and other ailments that need to be treated. Yes I know nurses change the bedding and they use hand sanitizers and whatnot, but still, there’s probably loads and loads of built up filth in all kinds of places
@@xenomorphbiologist-xx1214 not so fast the USA Boeing planes are riddled with faults and shoddy husbandry left tools and junk in all planes that can cause shorts never mind the fatigue cracks in 787 and dare i say the MIN sorry MAX USA JUNK for profit over safety
Great to see Sam in my home town at the place where my and many of my friends' fathers worked.
My grandad worked here for 30 years, and on the Concorde, so proud to be able to see his work place
Edit- he passed away late January 2021, honored to have known him and to share his passions
The Olympus 593 was built in Bristol

Great
Great video ! Great efforts !
Jafar Almusawi loooool😂
Real Av Geeks will appreciate how rare this content is.
Like me
It is, however we're setting up a rebuild shop in the US. Similar/same, like the only engine assembled upright.
I work here! 🙌🏼
i was just like, WHAT SAM IS SO LUCKY!!!!
I certainly appreciated it! :-)
Served my engineering apprenticeship at RR Derby, from 1964 to 1971. Left in 1974. It was a wonderful company to serve an aprrenticeship in. I worked in every department in several different factories. Unforgettable experience and I am proud to see them continue to thrive.
I visited Rolls Royce as a schoolboy in the 1970's - it was impressive. Your visit was better, everything was so clean and a huge upgrade! You ARE a lucky boy!
They look quite small when you look at them from the terminal but they are HUGE. Stay safe Sam and everyone else
@paul sticks i hopenot
Aviation 2409 Yeah I saw a Rolls Royce Trent XWB. Cause I was going to Germany 🇩🇪 on Lufthansa’s A-350-900. And its a MASSIVE engine once you see t in person.
Aviation 2409 that’s what she said
@@Cars-N-Jets they need to be as only 2 of these beasts are able to lift a structure off the ground that weighs over 200 tons or more than 200,000kg!
paul sticks U r right.
I like this video because Sam let the professionals talk instead of constantly talking about other things
Wow Sam !
I am a pilot myself and everytime I do a walk around and start the engine I feel obliged & proud considering the majestic technology & complex hardware of the engine.
Who designs jet engines would you plz tell me all types of engineers who designes jet engines
As spoken of I made parts for RR for 40 years being in a sub contracting company just one of many making parts, but I retired to the coast at 55 years of age.. I live under the flight path for Heathrow so see many reducing Hight although still high but each time I see a plane I wonder If I made parts for it.. I watch You Tube on time served once passenger planes been converted to air freight and still working hard.. "Flight Radar 24" keeps me amused for hours also... Thanks for your service..
Aha what about when they blow up? Still majestic?
This is engineering at its best. RR are superb at what they do. Incredible workmanship !
No they ain't. Generally Dynamics make better engines. USA USA USA!!!!
@@leeduncan6595how old are you?!!
@@leeduncan6595 FWIW: General Dynamics owns Gulfstream.Gulfstream uses RollsRoyce engines.
I worked as an intern at Rolls-Royce Derby for a year. Probably one of the best years of my life!!
Done a lot of work for all RR plants including derby, but also Industrial Marine divisions also BIG stuff
To the moon 🌙 🚀
Wowww, basically my dream for next year. I applied but I don't have too much confidence in it
I worked there forty years. The shine wears off, believe me!
OK did you figure it out ? Why do these engines explode? Do they have any plans on stop making engines that blow up?
This is such a gold content and the production value is as good as any documentary out there! Good job!
such a sweet comment... but didnt got the red heart like from corona virus......
@@D.Multani hahahhaha
@@D.Multani omg xD
@@D.Multani huh?
@@tyecollaborator5017 Ur comment sounds like u r fan of Corona virus...... U please stay home and dont comment on videos ... please and thank you....
Sam can really can not say a word because they explain it so well
He is behaving like a student..that explains the silence
A+ for this tour Sam !🤗 Absolutely AMAZING what man can and has built .
Beautifully made. The precision offers me so much comfort when flying
Hi Sam, I grew up in Derby, and my parents still live there - I have lived in Brisbane, Australia now for the past 35 years, and I am incredibly proud of my roots. Derby plays an incredibly pivotal role in the UK - Rolls Royce aero engines, Bombardier, Toyota, East Midlands Airport, Peak District, etc, etc. Great video and report Sam!!! Wished I was going through the factory as well...
Have a friend in Beenleigh, going to visit some time, Lovely place.
Aup me duck nice to see another derby lad on here 👍
Man this place is unbelievably cool. So much raw power at the bleeding edge of engine technology.
I've toured around their museum in their Derby facility. It's absolutely amazing inside there!
My Grandfather work for Rolls at their two sites at Barnoldswick in Lancshire. When he passed away both Factories turned our to show there respects to Him on way to the Cremetorium. It still impresses me still to this day over 30 years after. They really had a sence of family with those that work within the Rolls family even those that had Retired.
I work for a company in the UK that supplies goods to Rolls Royce (as do many). I've never had the chance to visit the site so this was really neat to see and gave me a lot of context as to the work they do. Great video, thanks.
So sad to hear.
What parts do you supply?
Jordi Tribo wring comment lol
$RYCEY I love the stock, I believe in the company.
I'm with you man. The worst is behind them, it's only up from here.
Me 3
Is that the American stock
Bought it at the bottom... Holding for a long while.
Got in at 1.79 , I missed the 1.37, bought more at 1.54 now I’m at 1.69 🚀
This is one of the coolest videos I've seen in a long time.
Oh! I'm sure with 3D printing, you can make one. You could even "eyeball" it. Remember the Wright Bros. made theirs out of wood. LOL!
How are you
This takes me back. Retired after 33 years from RR in 2011 and was a final assembly inspector for RR North America on both helicopter and Large Engine assembly engines. Probably the best built and assembled engines in the world. Rolls-Royce means Quality and Reliability at every level. Literally millions of machining operations completed by the highest skillful machinists in the world. Great Video. I would do it all over again.
Ted Carruthers The back side of RR is the dark side.....The wages from RR in United States was fought for by a UAW Union contract, otherwise the company is not any different from any other. Have you ever seen any big company that was so gracious with sharing their profits, they would actually pay you for your high level skills? Smoke and mirrors..BUT, in their defense, the quality is good.....not because of their company itself but because of the skills and workmanship of the workers.
Thanks for visiting Sam. Even though I work here at RR in Derby, you've visited some facilities I have not been to yet!
Stop lying bro
Inside Rolls Royce Factory - Building Future Jet Engines, Seeing this video I was amazed, thank you for sharing the information... success for "Sam .........".....Pekalongan, Central Java, Indonesia ok
Thank you so much for this video! I'm taking a propulsion class right now and this is really helpful, giving me a real world perspective of what I'm learning in class.
The best of British engineering👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Do you believe that in 2020 we can say that technology or engineering is British or German or French?
Do you believe RR, BMW, Airbus is hiring only British, German, German-French people?
Dont' forgot, noww china will be new competitive tehnology...
siεrus - it’s a British company 😂
@@AnglersUAE please tell me you're taking the piss ?.
Its racist to hire someone based on race, rather than qualifications, as you're discriminating against the race you've rejected for the job.
Race shouldn't be a factor in the work place, qualifications, merit and overall being a keen,harding working worker, is what really matters.
Anglers UAE Companies hire based on qualifications, not race. If you want to live in a communist utopia, consider North Korea.
Finally you talked about Rolls-Royce..!! Happy that you visited our test facilities where we work day and night...!!
how to get a job there ? as an engineer
@@vaibhavsingh9990 Idk
Fantastic company with great heritage of aero engines. It's the mecca for Mechanical Engineers.
Now this is some real engineering, right from the blades and other bits being manufactured to the assembly and final testing, I am amazed, great video!
Amazing video Sam. The most fascinating part of this video was the testing facility. ✈️
As a mechanical engineer student, this is one of the companies that i would like to work in
It's always nice to see inside a company you admire and see what a good environment it is.
The disappointment I felt when I saw how space x was run and worked...
@@BeKindToBirds Elaborate. I've heard people are underpaid and overworked but there are also tons of others with positive comments. What was your experience
@@fokjohnpainkiller His company is run with a lot of micromanaging, a massive amount of overtime and corner cutting, underpaid workers bringing down the industry standard, union busting, idea theft, and more.
I've heard lots of horror stories about what the future of aerospace work is going to be if space x is the future
One of the cleanest if not the cleanest factory I’ve ever seen, just incredible! 👏🏽
I just can't understand how can someone dislike this!!! Salute to you Sam on the amazing vlog 👏 👏👏👏
Be grateful that sam still post content during isolation 🙏. love the content sam!😄
Thank you. I am ramping up production as I’ve received many requests recently. The next one will be a Classic Airplane Spotting video mid week!
@@SamChui wow I am very excited!!
Sam Chui thanks Sam keep it up! Demand of your videos are much in need right now thanks 😊
@@josephholland2091 there is no need for this airline rubbish
Fascinating Sam, thanks for keeping us sane through these times ❤️
Great to see some familiar faces in this video, R-R doing a fantastic job pioneering the future of aviation. Good job all round.
Insanely Great, well done Sam, Excellent work RR and Derby
Good job Sam, never thought you would have gone to explore this engine workshop. Thanks Rolls Royce and the team very sincerely showed to the world the cutting edge technology from UK .
This Chanel is so interesting. I never really knew much about jets “I just ride them” but my eyes are being opened thanks Sam 👍🏽✌🏽
Feels like an episode of How its made! but better! Thank you for this exclusive video!
thanks for sharing Sam .. what an awesome and impressive manufacturing plant .. i like the enthusiasm of the Rolls Royce engineers show casing the manufacturing process ... LOVE IT !
This is what I also love to watch Sam aside from Airline Reviews everytime you travel. I believe there's so much to learn in aviation.
Great Video! Always amazing to have an inside look in big companies. Thanks for that. Love aero engineering and these XWB engine looks so nice...
Amazing, as I’m only watching this for school I appreciate how you showed me how they are made.
Hi Sam. Good to see you making the most for your enthusiasm for air travel by looking to the future of engine development at Rolls Royce.
I'm amazed. A lot of engineering hours go into producing an engine 😃
And many more precision parts made to fit that many dont realise
Impressive facility. Sam is great at getting access to places most of us can never go. Thanks for sharing.
It's amazing how you can learn everything today just by clicking a button. Ty Sam for the great video :)
I'm sure Sam has an entire team for video shooting and editing.
That's some professional stuff that he did with his camera.
They should test their engines on Brighton beach for us to enjoy being thrown away into the air like a paper😊
Yea, enjoy all the shit coming from the engine when something goes wrong or when they are doing bird test etc.
@@pilluritari can be funny...
So you’re saying Brightoners like being blown hard in public places? Who’d have known...
well, thats fun I guess czcams.com/video/a9oXVNXz8nA/video.html
Sand is bad for jet engines believe it or not.
When I learned about these engines, it was the first time I saw a nearly cost no object machine. Every material and process are the best for their particular job.
Here i learned so much how the engine build. I thought 1 mounth how this jet engine build and NOW I KNOW HOW THEY BUILD. When i watch you you make me happy very happy.
Thankyou for this show! Loved it. Love rolls Royce xx
Sam´s quality of videos has reached TV level, could be on tv channels like National Geographic etc.
I had no idea this wasn't produced by a network until I read your comment. Great work Sam
Love Them RR engines
Especially on the A330 and A350!!
So proud of all you do - making the biggest and best jet engines in the world. Derby rocks, yay!
GREAT JOB! DOING EVERYTHING TO KEEP OUR FLIGHTS SAFE AND SMOOTH. THANKS GUYS.
"We can do bird strike testing, where we fire birds at the engine... "
Me: can I see?
czcams.com/video/0qpD6MDYEGY/video.html
This shows just how big jet engines are unlike the pentagon that had just one hole in the building with no luggage seats, people laying all over the ground and the lawn untouched? Hmmm and ya wonder why the public asks questions about what we see as fact as opposed to what we're told and people changing stories (msm) to fit the narrative, also the confiscation of all surveillance videos from around the area...
Hamadi M hi my name is kagiso this corona is killing people #stayhome 😣

@@shirilomakumbela2642 what the hell has corona got to do with the engine?
Good job Sam ~ this is something amazing
The real aviation geek would appreciate this a lot ~~
Starting an apprenticeship here on the 7th September! Never been more excited
Great video! I've worked at RR Derby since 1999. It's been a privilege.
I love Rolls Royce. They make the most innovative designs. Long live the Ultrafan.
Thank you Sam for bringing us such interesting content and for providing us with an on-site into future technologies like I requested on your wing shaped aircraft design video.
So proud to see where my grandfather worked..
He keeps the floor so shiny and clean so engineers can work with ease... 😊
Loved it!
My best wishes to Rolls for their ULTRAFAN!
Sam: "That's huge"
Michael Scott: "That's What's She Said"
Stay Inside Sessions that is Kim Jong Un
Thrust is made by large turbofans like these
Unrelated but you have a good taste in music
Why are you the way you are?
This is the only video I could understand a British accent almost perfectly.
Great video! A rare view behind the scenes of a great British company!
Thanks nice meeting you sir have a great day
More content to watch at home during the pandemic :D
Awesome video Sam Chui, you are a tru aviation geek and journalist :-)
Excellent walkabout at RR, really informative...
This is such a well produced video certainly rivals if not exceeds what’s seen on television. Kudos!
One of the most amazing pieces of modern engineering
cmair77 Sort of. Just a huge fan, theoretically speaking. Space rockets are far more complex and mesmerizing
@@garrisonmcgugin8206 Yes.
However I think jet engines requires much more complex engineering than rockets.
Though spacex's engines have surpassed it by becoming reusable.
You're great Sam. As an airline pilot, I'm very amazed with your videos. Thanks a lot and keep going.
Wow. Thanks for this touring for us Sam...
Awesome video with excellent explanations and descriptions of the process.
Rolls-Royce don't make cars. The company started with cars, but Rolls-Royce Motor Cars as it is called now, is a subsidiary of BMW, who are licensed to use the name.
At least BMW makes Rolls Royce's cars better, unlike Volkswagen making Bentley worse
No, it's correct to say RR make cars. However his introduction outside the building suggested he thought RR Motor Cars and RR PLC (aero engines) were the same company.
@Kyros - lol at your blind irony
MercyReaper you can look at the company registration on the UK GOV website. It is Rolls-Royce Motor Cars (subsidiary of BMW). Yes they do the detailed work and upholstery etc in the UK. I'm sure they probably do a lot of design for aesthetics too. My point is that Rolls-Royce (PLC) is a global industrial technology company and the automotive side was licenced off to BMW. So the company 'Rolls-Royce' doesn't make cars. The subsidiary 'Rolls-Royce Motor Cars' does. I work for Rolls-Royce PLC and many people don't make it through interviews because they talk about cars 😂
@@timothyn4929 I hate when companies screen from simple mistakes like that instead of blatant ones....(I know they make cars wouldn't sound bad if they also mentioned the big company as a whole and different industries within). What do you do for them?
You hit 2 Million subs! Congrads for you, Sam! Keep it rolling...
Wow the production of these videos are so damn good, it's like watching TV documentaries
this is INSANE. Incredible to see industry leading engine design and manufacture
Awesome stuff. I am glad to see it's made in Britain where a RR product should be made.
This was really cool to see, thanks
Why school when I can watch sam’s videos. So cool and educational!
Very much enjoyed your content while flicking through various flight channels really good content thanks Sam
At 57 years of age I hope to live long enough to see an all electric engine on aircraft, that would be great.
Keep the great videos coming.
God bless you and your family.
Simply Amazing!
This is almost a rly rly fun and enjoyable documentary.....
Almost a documentary...
Thank You For SHARING
Wow! Just seen myself on here, I work in the prep shop and dreamfix in Derby and build TXWB & T1000 daily. Always lots to learn as things change but that’s all part of the fun! Great video! 👍😊😊
I was a RR apprentice 1956 - 1961; great memories.
Are you being laid off?
Airport Documentaries will find out end of the month! 😬🤞
You work as a mechanical engineer?
@@marieahiba2457 👍
That chief engineer is so confident and enthusiastic that shows how much he loves his job.
Enthousiasm, knowledge and clarity.
Fan-tastic video insight!
Awesome video Sam, great video and interesting eye opener on how a RR Engine is built.
LOVE FROM INDIA.. kerala💕

Me too from Mizoram
Brilliant video, thank you. A big salute to Rolls Royce for making such an amazing engines
My favorite engineering workshop
Brilliant video great content.
