    I know a lot of people want to see a How It's Made segment about the manufacturing machines themselves, but I can safely say (as someone who works in manufacturing) that the majority of those machines are custom built for the job. In other words they're completely unique. I'm sure there are some high-demand machines they could cover, but those would be hard to find.
    Edit: Case in point, that tablet press has quite a few uses in both medicine and candy, like what we see with the mints, so that one could certainly get a segment.

      @jeffreystarks Před měsícem +5

      One of my clients is an engineer who makes those machines and we were talking about how long it takes to go from idea, to successfully making the product and it's a long process. I feel like any machine would be awesome to see, not just.the ones that have the ability to make multiple items such as the candy/pills one.
      Btw, I think.its funny that two items that you definitely don't want to mix up comes from the same machine lol .

    The tissue segment reminded me of how various paper products used to be available in different colors. Tissues, toilet paper, paper towels-- all came in a variety of colors from about the 1960's until the 1980's. I'm not sure why that stopped.

    I love to fall asleep to these. I remember when I'd go to my godfathers house I'd always spend super early mornings watching this while intermittently napping until it finally got daylight enough I could get in my 4 foot deep little pool in his backyard. Then in the afternoon I'd watch it while I ate lunch and then I'd take another nap because I was only 7 and a pool made me tired especially after spending 3 hours jumping and splashing and doing tricks

    Anyone else catch onto the part where packaging those band-aids in air tight packaging doesn't even remotely make them "sterile"? Good to know. I mean the one worker was just feeding the machine with their bare hands. How are these "sterile" if there's already germs on them in the first place?

      They didn't say the air-tight packaging was what sterilized the bandages. They were probably sterilized by heat. Sometimes they don't show footage of some steps due to time constraints.
