Again amazing to see how 3d printing can improve development. For prototyping or functional parts in industrial environment there is nothing better, cheaper or faster than a 3d print. Thanks for this great open source project printers
Great video showing how 3D printing is used in the real world!!
Sehr gute Wahl!
Sehr geiles Video ❤
I've heard they 3D print the DSG mechatronic units, cam chain sprockets and wheel bearings with chocolate.
Well done Video. Quite interesting to watch.
Seeing a 3-D printing array at Volkswagen of Prusa printers, well I can hear Andrés Cantor now.!!!!!
Sehr cooles Video. Kleiner Hinweis: Es heißt genau genommen nicht Carbon, sondern Kohlenstofffaserverstärkter Kunststoff.
With out subtitles, it's just fun 😊

Ok, they build a build plate changing robot. That is impressive, but even more the little detail that a push block mounted on the extruder just pushes the finished part from the plate so it can just restart again. How does it deal with the prime line? Is it removed from the start g-code?
Good question! Are you sure they removed the prime line or is it your assumption? I'm not seeing one on the plate indeed. Prime line is primarily to build up pressure in the nozzle right? Can we do without it?
Check out Slant3D if you want to see some hardcore 3D printing automation ;)
They also do the extruder pushing things of the buildplate trick but a lot more efficiently
@@_renze_ haven't tried it myself before but if you add a brim and the printer starts with that, it wouldn't a big deal if the first few millimeters aren't done properly
Perhaps we don't see the entire process in the video? One possibility is that once the finished part is pushed off the plate, the robotic arm picks up the plate to have it cleaned (in the chamber we see from 0:38-0:45) replacing it with a clean plate?
@@bhartissimo I mean at 3:30. This printer isn't connected to a robot. The part falls into a bin.
was eine geile ausbildung !
Ihr könnt euch glücklich schätzen. Ich arbeite bei Volkswagen Baunatal und nutze privat zwei prusa mk3s. Wie gerne würde ich in so einer Abteilung arbeiten. 😅
Ich arbeite bei Volkswagen in Baunatal im 3D Druck. Gerne kann man sich mal austauschen.
@@MikeHaft Hey gerne. Ich habe kürzlich schon mal eine E-Mail an verantwortliche bei euch versandt aber leider hat sich keiner gemeldet. Vielleicht sollte ich einfach Mal reinschauen bei euch?
Shiny. But when will the MMU3 for MK4 ready to ship?
4:20 warum hat man den nicht mit 5 Werkzeugköpfen ausgestattet?
Hätte eine Frage welche Fabrikaten an Filament verwendet vw?
Das kann man nicht verallgemeinern, wir kaufen bei uns in VW Akademie Emden wenn möglich bei Prusa, sonst hauptsächlich Filafarm oder für spezielle Filamente bestellen wir bei IGUS.
Den bei Prusa gibt es kein blaues Nylon bekommt man den link dafür?
endlich mal in deutsch.^^
Wie man bei 4:30 voll merkt das er das so von Prusa aufgetragen bekommen hat zu sagen. 🤣
Ob die auch 2 Jahre auf den XL gewartet haben?
@@TheCoilboy bestimmt. 😂 Mich wundert eher, dass alle anderen noch MK3s+ sind und kein Mk4 bei ist.
Wenn ich schon Catia V5 höre, stellen sich einem die Nackenhaare auf.
sebi
nice to see FreeCAD in use
They mentioned Catia v5, did you see FreeCAD somewhere?
CATIA V5
@@logicalfundy Catia looks like FreeCAD at first glance. Guess Catia was the inspiration for FreeCADs UI design.
1:28 Hände in den Taschen? Was soll ich dazu sagen.
Nix, weil es nichts zu sagen gibt an der Stelle.
any jobs going?
Falls ich euch die Drucker richtig einstellen soll, kurz anschreiben
leave it to a big company to automate what can be accomplished by a single human hand
not exactly the best brand to collab considering their reliability issues LOL
What'd he say? lol
He say exactly what you hear
Speaking English would have been a smart move...
Oh wow, I didn’t know VW was from an english speaking country??
Subtitles exist..
Imagine them using a CoreXY printer instead?? Their mind would blow away.
I mean, a reliable CoreXY.
That is what they have with the Prusa XL.
I don't understand why that is not the base printer as break even would be a couple of weeks
@@jenspetersen5865because its VW they do not care about brake even. They only care about corporate structure and hiding that they faild their transition to EVs and are gonne go bankrupt in the next 10a
Out of principle I cannot support them for their lies on emissions
Espacially in productions like VW it makes no sense to use MK3(S+) tbh. The time, quality and ease to use gain with a MK4 or X1C would be so big that the investment is already paid off within weeks if not even days.
yes the newer mk4 would definitely be a better option and makes more sense but the thing is that all of there programs and machines are made for the mk3s+, also they have them calibrated really good from the looks of it so why fix something that isn't broken
we are currently making the transition to mk4
in my basement there is more highend stuff...
English title, but no english language, sad and annoying.
*HOW ABOUT SOME ENGLISH?!!*
Turn on subtitles please
@@Prusa3D Yo man, atleast dont depend on YT algorithm for important message wtf. Why Prusa3d (or the social media guy) are getting lazy?
Awesome to see how VW is trying to modernize and keep up. Shame that they recently announced that they must get rid of a massive 40% of their car production capacity to cut costs ... simply to survive the transition to EV's, because they simply can't make a profitable EV, they kicked out the CEO who was actually pushing to try to keep up with Tesla, and because of delays of a few years on software due to a catastrophically failed software development program for the cars. But what do you expect from a company that literally killed thousands of people by intentionally cheating on car emissions tests.
They kicked out the CEO for bad decisions, MEB platform is bad they need to change, they removed important buttons like AC(now is coming back), change from click buttons to touch buttons (now is coming back), Software bugs for years (now is starting to be ok), no light on the touch buttons beneath the central console screen (no its fixed), list goes on and on.
MEB is so bad that AUDI cancel the contract with VW and change to porsche.
VAG was not the only company cheating on the emissions, we have also Mercedes, BMW, Citroen, Ford, Chrysler, Fiat, Hyundai, Land Rover, Mini, Renault, Volvo, Opel, Peugeot, Jaguar, Nissan, Kia.
Herbert Diess exactly predicted it that if they will ever fail in EVs, they will have to get rid of 40 000 employees and close several factories and its already happening. He publicly warned that if they didn’t kick their lazy asses they will end like Nokia. And so they get rid of Diess and they run in all this deep sh!t. Bravo! 👏 Time to get rid of today’s dinosaur in mangement and send there progresive geeks who knows what to do in today quickly changing world. Old days of german ICE engineering are over. Change or die. 🤷♂️🦕🦖⚰️🪦
Actually Herbert Diess was the one responsible for the softwareproblems. He pushed for Softwaredevelopment to be done inhouse. Sadly VW had to this point always bought its Software. They didnt have the know how at that point in time.
@@berndsassen9828 So you want to outsource it? That would be fail. They must to learn it in house or they can close it. No other way. They must take compete control on their core thing ant that is cell and battery production and software development. Cell and batteries because of possible lowest price, software because of complete control above the car. If they are not able to make it they are done. Outsourcing 150 Control Units with 150 different softwares from 150 different vendors and ask them every time for change is pure suicide. 👎
@@berndsassen9828 Actually ... software not being developed in house is a huge roadblock for the legacy car makers. You can't just buy the software. Like seriously how shallow did you look into this? To quote Ford's CEO Jim Farley:
"We farmed out all the modules that control the vehicles to our suppliers because we could bid them against each other," said Farley. "So Bosch should do the body control module, someone else to do the seat control module, someone else to do the engine control module. We have about 150 of these modules with semiconductors all through the car."
"The problem is that the software is all written by 150 different companies and they don't talk to each other," Farley said. "So even though it says Ford on the front, I actually have to go to Bosch to get permission to change their seat control software. Even if I had a high-speed modem in the vehicle and I had the ability to write their software, it's actually their IP. We call it the 'loose confederation of software providers.' One-hundred-fifty completely different software programming languages. All the structure of the software is different. It's millions [of lines] of code."
And it ends up as crap when you link it all together ... It's such a problem that Ford is planning on having it all in house for their next gen EVs.
Diess saw what Tesla was doing, and how much better their systems work, but other powers at VW pushed him out for trying to make the company change. So now VW has crap EVs that are poorly designed and aren't compelling to drive. As can be seen by independent groups like Munro And Associates tearing them down and reverse engineering them. And their cars take 2x or more to build each one compared to Teslas. VW delivered nearly 400k ev's in 2023, but lost money on them. Tesla is the only EV maker outside of China making a profit on EV's.
Worst product. I don’t believe it will last. Their machines are poorly produced with terrible service. I am nervous to by a VW.
VW? Nö, never.
Nobody seems to be amazed about volkswagen using Catia as their preferred CAD software in 2024 😶🌫️🥹
