[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 2897252, member: 7629"] [SIZE=6][B]Elon Musk: Tesla’s Model 3 factory could look like an alien warship[/B][/SIZE] August 4 [IMG]https://img.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=https://img.washingtonpost.com/rf/image_960w/2010-2019/Wires/Images/2016-07-26/Reuters/2016-07-27T005227Z_01_TOR310_RTRIDSP_3_TESLA-GIGAFACTORY.jpg&w=480[/IMG] Robots named Thundebird and Cyclops work together to lower a Tesla vehicle onto the assembly line at Tesla Motors factory in Fremont, Calif. The machine will ultimately be so complex that no humans will be expected to operate it directly, or to participate in the actual building of each Model 3. "You really can't have people in the production line itself," said Musk. "Otherwise you'll automatically drop to people speed." (He didn't elaborate on how much faster these machines will be able to work.) With Tesla coming under increasing pressure to meet its production targets, Musk's factory will need to move at much greater than "people speed" if it wants to satisfy demand. There'll still be people working in the factory, though, mostly overseeing the robots and making sure everything is running at peak efficiency.
