- čas přidán 16. 01. 2020
- With more than 11,000 employees, the Mercedes-Benz plant in Wörth is the largest truck factory in the world. Every day more than 400 fully roadworthy trucks run off the line here. From Wörth am Rhein they are exported all over the world - sometimes even via the factory-owned container port.
Our truck documentary accompanies the development of a Tractor Actros - from the first drawings of the designers, the work steps in the engine plant in Mannheim to the final assembly of the truck in Wörth.

WELT Documentary really awesome documentary
Thanks Welt. Am from Zambia and am an expert on Mercedes Benz Axor. I would love to see how these trucks are are assembled.
Is the MB engines are the same Detroit Diesel engines, that goes in the Freyghliner truck 🚚 in USA?
Does MB, doesn't make a V8 engines anymore?
And this MB engines are the same the ones that sells in MB🇧🇷 Brazil and in USA🇺🇸 as a Detroit engine, or all is different?

My wife, and I, went to this factory, last December. Incredible! It really shows off the quality of German engineering. We were completely amazed!
Did you bought some truck? 🙂
I would love to have the opportunity to visit the plant.
What do they require to visit the site?
Brrrrrrrrrrraka mo no da!
German engineering is the best in the world.
I work there 😂
@@capitanulcacaoernesto8215 German engineering is top notch. But best in the world? I don’t know. I guess it depends on what they’re making. I can tell you first hand, they can’t make a coke worth I plug nickel. It taste dirty compared to here in the USA. I’m kidding of course, you are correct, they’re incredible. The workmanship is astounding, but it’s more than that. It like their products have soul or personality, it’s a bit spooky really. Also, just to work in a Mercedes plant, one must be identified early in their education, then they must pursue that track. Then make a minimum GPA, then they must serve and apprenticeship before they are fully vested with company. Those people a serious!
And, of course, the unsung heroes are the people who fix these factory robots, conveyor belts and all when they break down. I respect an individual who can help their team succeed in silence.
Great video. I loved all the details showed in this video.
As I always say: German people take serious quality and precision.
The way that they store and pick up parts are amazing. The way that they built and test the engines are fantastic.
Thanks for post this video. I loved.
You should see/ check how the Swiss are about quality of ANYTHING if German stuff blew your mind just a thought🤷🏼♂️
This was an incredible exhibition of the genius of German engineering. They are a truly remarkable people. Even the workers look clean cut and intelligent. It is a real "first world" country.
It's not just a truck... it's a piece of art!

It’s piece of shit compare to Volvo
absolutely mind blowing, so much detail in building these trucks. Brilliant..
Recently went there to watch my own truck assembly...(model 5 AROCS) REAL piece or planning.. and work!
@@TheSuitedTruckDriver Congrats on the arocs! i lovee mercedes
@Henry Discipline uncle doesn't know his elbow from his rear end then..
@@TheSuitedTruckDriver aàaaà
@@jwmcclanahan4690 i’ve been there trying to see my truck being assembled.. great experience! Mind blowing facility!
Simply Amazing how far technology has come, it's hard to comprehend what happened to the Truck and auto industry just in the past 50 years, 100 years ago most people were riding horses lol. Very impressive.
Никакой суеты все работает как часы. Молодцы немцы.
They need to make cabovers in America again, such nice trucks.
"words like cupcake & crocodile are not easily forgotten" ain't that the truth I got that stuck in my head now thanks a lot Mercedes.
God bless Great Germany.
i have a workshop in Chile, we repair Mercedes Benz trucks, this documentary is absoluty amazing, i never I thought the engineering behind these trucks, i hope know that factory, you have a new follower, thank you!
I used to drive one of these for a living. Wonderful. More comfortable than any car. A pleasure to go to work.
thank you!
when you put so much effort into production of a truck, there's no way it can't be the best or nothing
This is an amazing insight to the stringent safety checks, an expertise used in creating these incredible trucks. Every aspect is well thought out, an strategically engineered for maximum efficiency. The Germans put the "T" in technology...............................
This seems to define the terms 'Effecient and Effective' pretty well. The level of tech is mind blowing. Respect
Good documentary, from beginning to the end, very informative...well done WELT.
The amount of automation is mind boggling!!
i would love to see an actros engine gets a tune from AMG😂
They need one
And then a brabus version of that amg truck
Hugh Russell With 2,000+hp
A european muscle😆😆😆😆😆
Yesssssssss!!!!!!
I love the humor of the production crew, playing "Aces high" over a documentary about a factory in Germany...
Its a BLACK SABBATH - "Paranoid"
It's German humour. No laughing matter...
You have to be kidding. The documentary starts out with BLACK SABBATH music? Cool or what? Hell of an operation. The Germans know how to build things.
yeah with cheap plastic like the oil pan...
Such an excellent documentary!! Congrats!!
Absolutely Brilliant
Gotta love the Black Sabbath playing!
And Iron Maiden 👍
Black Sabbath 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
These old trucks can still be seen in the middle East
Thank you, this is my second one now i watched Volvo trucks now im watching the stunning Mercedes and as someone that loves trucks this is amazing no wonder why i go truck spotting and play euro truck simulator 2 i just love trucks.
Great i am fan toó but in México there arent but yesterday i saw my first mercedes benz acctros pepsi truck awesome
you are not alone
I'm already looking forward for a Scania episode
Mecedes was my first truck there. Best cabin for the stock game. But I fell love in Peterbuilt (mod). But in my personal garage and fleet there will be one.
Now I know how they are built.
Can we get a Mercedes Actros truck in America?? 🇺🇸 🇩🇪
Cascadia prob the closest you'll get to an actros in the u.s
You don't see a lot of the cabover design in North America. Not really sure why, they were big in the 70s and early 80s.
@@MGower4465 Length limits were dropped, hence the design currently popular in NA became the most economical again.
European trucks to American trucks are what a 5-star michelin meal is to a microwave dinner found in a skip.
Bruh Peterbilt will stomp on any truck brand.
Peterbilt, Mack, Kenworth, Westernstar 💯💯💯
Volvo, Benz, International, Sterling 🗑
@West Coast lol no. A peterbilt can go for decent amounts
@West Coast funny that we don't have issues with ours, at least not such issues; Where I work we depend on van-based units and we beat quite the shit out of them, driving them at their limits ... we use the Sprinter for many generations so far and didn't have engine problems. Also many trucking companies rely on the Mercedes-Benz trucks here, no matter if they operate in the flatlands or the mountains, in the far north or south
@West Coast they have issues because they are built by American not German.
@West Coast bro i think the one's in US is more different than the one's in Europe here.
This is excellent...thankyou...
Say "as if by magic" one more goddamn time, i dare you...
Nikodem Śliwka That’s the crutch of an ignorant script writer.

RE: "Say 'as if by magic' one more goddamn time, i dare you..."
One man's magic is another man's engineering.
Wow your so tough
@@duncan_donuts_1347 *You're
This channel is awesome!
Wow every single step of this production line is just spectacular
Any AMG trim for those trucks?
Really very cool, glad I found it! Bravo!
Fantastic documentary💪🏻💪🏻
Beautiful video, well-paced, informative, entertaining, great package! Other than the spelling mistake in the subject line, really well done. I've subscribed.
@Christopher Schuster actually thats not true. From the looks of it this is the english youtube channel of the german tv station that produces these documentaries
@@hugo3144 You nailed it!
That poor bloke has been fired now. Hope you're happy lol
@@JohnSmith-nz4bn 🤣🤣
Hi 💜
Superb!
I do have to say: Back in the 1970s, who would have thought that a Black Sabbath backing track would be played during a Mercedes Truck factory documentary? :)
Excellent documentary!
Not a single word about these beautiful aluminium Diesel Tanks...?
Amazing
Very nice video, thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you
I really like german trucks such beauty. Their technology is mind blowing
Volvo trucks are the most beautiful and safest trucks in the world that's why America only use Volvo's not Benz.
@@paulhoffman1854 nope they are not
Fantastic video. Great job.
I just watched the Volvo factory in USA and it looks soo rudimentary compared to this one. Mercedes FTW (except in F1, I want RB to win this year)
Genius .CAMERA MAN Excellent JOB.
I hear terminator music! love it!! great documentary!
Nah, that was the movie “The Rock” at 10:02.
I am a Vietnamese automotive engineer, hopefully one day I will work here
Yes my wish
@@DungNguyen-gp6uv You can do it!
@@Flex2212 It was hard, I had no way to work for this company
There are many cars in the world. The best cars are Mercedes Benz. One name is the whole price
Tnx for this video 🇩🇪⭐🔝👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome amazing documentary
Jn
... Amazing
Black Sabbath playing in the background 😁 nice, pleased to know that Mercedes aren't above adopting improved work practices from the Japanese
so I tip my hat to them.
AMAZING.👽🖖🏾✔️
The world needs Germany.
Imagine a world without it.
no WW2 xD
they are masters at engineering, tedious in bureaucracy but appaling with expanding their internet broadband
More would be driving Scania and Volvo.
Impressive
AMAZING
Great video. If only I could understand your other vids which are in German, I love German culture.
10:10 is why once you even scratch your car it will never be the same, especially plastics like the bumper
Лав Юююююююю❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Мерседес, Лав юююю%Актрос!!!!!!! Супер грузовик🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Love the video.
Hi 🌹🌹
Nice to meet you 💜💜
thank you for Posting your videos , incredible construction, great to see !!!! thank you !!!!!😁😁😁😁😁
Schön!
Wow, awesome, every 130 secs.
Germani is good ! 👍👍👍
amazing....
Opening intro music, Black Sabbath
Me: oh this is going to be good! 😂
Heavy metal originating from the factories and foundries in the UK: sort of ironic!
I was stunned to see the incredible number of holes in the 2 frame sections at the very beginning of this video. I realize that these frames come standard and are used for many different variations of trucks,. when the truck is done there are so many holes without a bolt in them , how strong is that frame really?
Maybe it's to reduce weight haha. Doesn't look too aerodynamic either. There's nothing like North American made.
@@markm.3297 Yeah, there's nothing as shit as North American made.
It Passed all of the Required test without an Issue so i wouldnt worry about the holes .. alot of companys acutally add Compressors with some of the Holes are used for since atleast here in germany youare not allowed to add more holes lol (not that that would be nessescarry lol)
The holes are all on the sides, there are no holes in the top and bottom, that is where the strength is.
Also you are not allowed to weld anything to the chassis, the only welded joints are where sections are joined together, there is normally two channels one inside the other and riveted together so that the holes between the inner and outer line up for the bolts and cross member installation and they help reinforce the welded joints.
Chassis is very springy, even removal of one cross member as an effect on the overall rigidity. Its incredible how much torsional twist there is on the overall length of a bare chassis when driven, I mean if you follow one on the road you can see it quite noticeably.
@@markm.3297 sure, American is the one and only, with nothing else being good :D :D :D
Congratulation my dear friends. This is a perfect movie. After this movie I understand more about trucks. Thank you.
It’s the second time I’ve watch this I love watching how it’s all put together but I have to say I noted this twice now the Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath soundtrack in the background every now and then I love it! Yes I Caught it LOL
Ozzy all the way!!
Dah mercedes trucks ni vyuma aisee🔥
Ni vyuma sana jamaa wako makini sana
Why are Kenyans on every video I'm watching? Actros mambo mbaya!
The engine is bad on the Actros. Not actually bad, but slow. All truck drivers say that VOLVO and SCANIA are the kings. MAN as well has a strong engine.
bogdan tranca several years ago,,I visited family in PFORZHEIM and driving the AUDUBOHN (Sp) I NEVER SAW ONE MB TRACTOR THERE , DAF, MAN, SCANIA , & others , there must be a reason ! Cheers FROM NJ USA🇩🇪🇺🇸
Der Streit zwischen MAN und Mercedes ist so alt wie das Automobil. Letztlich ist es Ansichtssache. Übrigens: MAN und SCANIA sind Teile des VW-Konzerns.
Sind Sie auf einem Auge oder auf beiden Augen blind? Mercedes in Wörth ist deshalb die größte Truck-Fabrik der Welt, weil die Trucks so schlecht sind? Sind die Käufer alle so dumm, dass sie nicht erkennen, dass SCANIA, VOLVO, DAF so viel besser sind?
Dass müssen Sie mir erklären.
Excellent episode!!
AWESOME ++++++++++++++
Awesome advance engineering
9:00 as a die hard Mercedes I do have to say . Sprinter vans rust like it’s their job. Not sure if the sprinters get the same treatment
MBmann completely agree !! Sprinter pick ups can pull a decent amount of weight though
Yet here in Australia I've never seen one with rust. But then again rusting cars in most of Australia is quite a rare thing nowadays.
I'm in the North East of the U.S and due to the snow and the salt we use to melt the ice on the roads , the sprinters tend to rust .
Coover they rust in the uk because of the rain and if they are near the sea, if you want to buy a 2nd hand car or van then personally I’d try get one inland there usually in better condition
Iveco daily isn't much better sadly
Anyone else notice music from the movie "The Rock" at ~9:50-10:20 mark and around 32:10-15?
I know it's showing German efficiency, but damn, totally got psyched for it lol
Oh and Iron Maiden! Aces High ~40:20-40:40
It works!

Keep watching and you will learn how to become fluent in your language by learning how to choose the correct words. Unlike the U.S. so-called education system which is at the bottom end of the top 50 OECD countries. #45.

Hi
Absolutely incredible. Absolutely German!!
2:16 - a reminder of how extremely similar German can be to Swedish. Kraftfull und robust in German, Kraftfull och robust in Swedish.
*kraftvoll*...😉
Such advancement.
Please, please stop saying "so-called." It's not "so-called picking," it's just "picking." It's not the "so-called shake test," it's the "shake test." Incredibly annoying.
Thanks... I read your comment half way through now I can't stop hearing it!
you're so-called right
The “Shake Test” as they say.
Someone explain to me the cost savings of:
1)Having the manufacturer assemble your truck, disassemble it, pack it, and ship it out?
2)Then you receive the container, ship it to your factory, have all your employees organize the parts and begin assembly.
It is a whole lot cheaper to ship something in a standardized container than it is to have someone haul it to wherever on a trailer and/or ferry. Combine that with the much lower wages people have in, say, Russia or South Africa, and CKD becomes the cheaper option.
How come they don’t use cab over like this Mercedes in the USA anymore, I believe freightliner is owned by Mercedes correct?
More interesting than most movie theater films...
A few scenes would have been cool with classical dance music (waltz or similar) in synch 😉
incredible
Hi 🌹
Good morning
W
Mercedes Benz
When it comes to making things. you can't beat the Germany. they are so good at it.
8:15 that's hillarious lmao
9:44 call me crazy but is that not the music from "The Rock" lol
Yes it is, I started yelling "Welcome to The Rock!!"
Definitely is, I love that film
@@sebtarta haha
COOL
Not seen much here in North America but I have worked internationally and I have seen a lot of them in Europe, South America, Central America and Africa.
I guess that's quite an understatement: apart from a few Unimogs, are there any Mercedes-Benz trucks around in the USA?
@@EnjoyFirefighting frightliner and thomas built is mercedes/daimler, so there are some mercedes trucks in the us
@@stevenbodum3405 well that doesn't mean it's a Mercedes-Benz. Skoda is part of the Volkswagen group and their cars use many VW parts, but although VW is sold in the USA ... Skoda definetly isn't.
There are no Mercedes-Benz Actros, Zetros etc sold in the USA
Bueatiful process
Electric motors are at least 3 times more efficient. All you need is a battery technology system that can give you a 500 mile range.
42:09 Optimus Prime arriving in the background!
38:19 Isabell Eichnerger. Worth watching the whole thing right there.
