Mega Diesel Engine made in Germany. MTU (Engine and Turbine Union Friedrichshafen) is a brand of Rolls-Royce Power Systems. Their propulsion systems and large diesel engines, for example, neatly heat ships, heavy and military vehicles or railways. Not infrequently bring such drives namely achievements of up to 12,000 hp. The mega diesel engines are manufactured in the idyllic Friedrichshafen on Lake Constance, but the engines "Made in Germany" have long been used worldwide.

Had the privilege of going to the factory twice. Awsome place in a beautiful part of Germany
I rode my Harley past it and didn't know it was there.
I work for MTU in SC, and have personally rebuilt 40+ series 8000 turbos and 40 of the power units, pulling 90 degrees on the 20 bolts by hand is no fun.
@@Den-ml7zg Where can I look for the generators/ alternators? Does anyone have them used for sale? Rebuilt, WHERE?
anyone else notice the guy using his foot 😂
@@ftl989 its called walking give it a try,
I'm a 70yr old Brit, that lives and worked in the city, that Produced Perkins Diesel Engines, The Big Engines, that rival these, are built at Stafford, UK, my first time working @ Perkins after my 2wk induction training, was a block wash machine, the first machine @ the start of the V8 production line, As a C+G qualified motor mechanic, it was a eye opener,
Respect!!! Even the foundry is clean that is no easy you can see the pride and confidence when they speak
Plus it has been around for 600 years. 💪
there german what else do you expect
You said it… pride! I worked in a lot of steel mills as an outside contractor. And they were dumps with employees sleeping in their cubby holes while the place was falling in around them.
Mega engine manufacturing, FD Engineering? How many environmental disasters are you planning to cause with your reckless production methods?
I grew up next to a shipyard that built giant LNG tankers and I remember watching them being launched in the 1970's as a teen, ships are amazing. 🇺🇸 Quincy, Mass.
I love cars, love engines, and love engineering which the Germans are the best at, I knew id love this video, amazing!
best in what way? hard to fix and maintain, russian engines won war
@@Jonjs99 oh yea I forgot the first car was Russian not German🤣 I forgot Russians make sig sauers, best guns in the world, them awesome Russians did get Sputnik up early though
Makes all the engines I worked on look like childs play, this is awesome
This is an amazing feat of engineering and skilled craftsmanship. Awesome 👍
German Giants in engine manufacturing? How many workers are you exploiting in your sweatshops to meet your production quotas?
Here's another Idea, why are there Lawn mower Blades. We can use a water jet blade to cut the grass. And the same to cut trees ???
Mimic Mother nature, she does things for a reason. If I could stand long enough. I could show you. Remember the old Hobart washing Machine ???
TBH, as a kid, the most impressive German things I ever saw in person, were the 1972-1973 Porsche 917/30 CAN-AM cars being driven at Riverside Raceway.
Roger Penske was the crew chief way back then, and he is still at it in racing. These cars were so fast/powerful, they were outlawed, the following season.
Piloted by Americans, Mark Donohue and George Follmer.
There is a reason why German engineering costs money and your looking at it right here 💪💪
Not ALL German engineering, there cars are garbage
@@josephludwig1126 some of their cars for sure are, but they also produce some good and reliable vehicles, too. Volkswagens TDI vehicles for example, beyond reliable.
@@whatta7793 Volkswagen was caught in a massive emissions scandal, my daughter owns a 2018 Tiguan, 69,000, won't pass envisions, secondary air won't pass, needs $6,900 foam new head, Volkswagen will not cover it, Garbage Company
@@josephludwig1126 Not just VW, pretty much all of the car industry was.
Everyone that used a Bosch ECU were cheating but somehow it's just called the VW emissions scandal, perhaps so the less intelligent amongst us hate only them or something. ;)
@@josephludwig1126 Saying German cars are garbage whilst being an American is honestly so damn funny, you make the worst cars in the world lol
Such an intense and well edited and narrated upload. I saw this process for these engines in another video; but it wasn't this detailed...I was spellbound and proud of my nationality and recognize the centuries of trial and error that have arrived at this point...Thanks for the upload...
I wish we had that kind of German Engineering in My America. Precision Building or just dont do it. My Respects, DSD Hoffmann
Don't wish and don't buy into German hyperbole. US can and does have facilities to build engines. It's just Germany is good at telling itself it's superior.
Conversely look at all the utter German luxury rubbish junk cars it sells around the world where a designed to fail component requires the removal of the engine. They're conceited idiots like everyone else - we're all in the same boat LOL. Oh the humanity!
Germany has the finest craftsman in the world. They do this with there trade schools, they start young. They fuel Germanys economy.
MTU is British Owned.
@@yakacm
What we saw here was in Germany, it could be owned by Eskimo's it doesn't change what was said
I had an Audi for a few years. It broke down to the point of being undrivable 5 times over 30k-60k miles and ~3yrs... I know it is a sample size of 1, but it really put me off... I will stick with Japanese engineering. I have never had that issue with japaese cars.
@@crunks420 same experience, but with a lexus. mechanical issues and ridiculously poor rust protection for a premium product. switched to mercedes and no issues since.
@@JobyFluorine-ru4bd
🤔 😂
Absolutely brilliant video thank you so much. Take care and stay safe everyone. Tom.
Brings back memories or feeding smelting pots with a double overhead crane! nice and warm in the winter with all windows open.
Simply incredible!
The annoying thing is that the UK used to build ship's engines but our industry suffered from poor management, short termism and a lack of investment. Plus of course a series of governments who just didn't understand or even care about manufacturing.
Don’t forget UNIONS😅
I wish they would have shown the bolting in of the crankshaft this video don't show enough of the good stuff
No one sells their manufacturer secrets
Mega engine manufacturing, FD Engineering? How many ethical standards did you sacrifice to maintain your competitive edge?
That's a magnificent piece of work, kudos from America, nice to see such pride taken in work these days.
The background music so annoying, distracting and totally unnecessary,otherwise very interesting
German Giants, huh? How many corners did you cut in the manufacturing process to save a few bucks?
Yes agree
Absolutely agree. Whoever came upon the idea to give this potentially interesting film a touch of drama a la American ridiculous TV show. and a narrator from like the Discovery channel.. Look for another job.
Please lose the dramatic music - and after the first 28 mentions that a mistake would be bad, we get it. Mistakes bad.
The CAD blowups on this are next level kind of cool.
Beautiful German engineering
That crew of technicians should all get Medals .
Believe me, they are well paid. I would guess that medals don't mean much. When that engine didn't start right up is when the boss of that crew earned his pay!
Mega engine manufacturing, FD Engineering? How many safety regulations did you conveniently overlook to meet your deadlines?
would be a whole crew of absolute Chads. Bravo
Amazing engineering and team work.
Even so it should have been checked for accuracy. My experience with doing business with the Germans is that they are never wrong, and even worse they must never be seen to be wrong.
Love this. Love the engine episodes
Mega engine manufacturing, FD Engineering? How many lawsuits are you expecting for your blatant disregard for safety?
Very interesting piece of engineering in this great factory. Excellent documentary, I want to see more of this kind.
“Cam shaft rotates at 20 revolutions per second”
1,200 engine rpm?
If it is a 2-stroke diesel. That was not mentioned but I believe that the narration implied that its maximum RPM is 1,500.
German Giants, really? How many shortcuts are you taking in your manufacturing process to maximize your profits?
I NEED one of those turbos for my diesel pickup!
I like the way they reuse the sand by putting it back to St Tropez
Well done! Great story for all involved.
Excellent documentary
If you wait all your kindness will always come back to you do everything you can to help family friends and strangers and never expect nothing back in return. Always better to give than take
The electric power of a small city, to run the furnaces. BUT, the engines last decades with rebuilds of power units, occasionally, so well worth it.
Clean enough to eat off the factory floor I’m sure that might be an insult in another country but if you had a factory in America that clean, that would be a compliment. That says it all.
Good video. My T level is back and I feel like eating a 2 pound steak and chasing skirts again.
Hail the power of steel.😅
AWESOME = Thanks from 🇺🇸
if you have ever torn apart and rebuilt a small block Ford or Chevy, you would fit right in at the factory.
I know, right? The biggest difference is a separate camshaft for each cylinder bank. I would feel like an ant!
German Giants, eh? How many lives are you willing to sacrifice for your bottom line?
@@clgusa23689 sorry; I'm not tracking; i wrote that in reference to V-type engines following similar layouts.
These are trade secrets but who could copy this feat?
Wish they could build a car that last this long.
What are you talking about?
@@Look_What_You_Did state of the art diesel power blocks. 2 cycle
That's why I Only use what I need. Laugh @ me all you wan't... I've lived it, I saw what I saw !!!
They can but it would probably have a top speed of 5mph.
Mega engine manufacturing, FD Engineering? How many lobbyists did you hire to turn a blind eye to your environmental destruction?
You think I can fit one of these in a Tahoe? 😅🤣😂 Jokes aside, this is so cool to see them make these massive engines. And cutting metal is not welding. If you are welding something you are putting them together. You know, like mufflers.
😂😂 you have a better chance of putting a Tahoe inside the engine 😂😂
German State of the art quality💪🏻😎👍🏻
I don't like the crack in the crane lifting gear at 14:22
Sure is a big bloody crack ,, now that you have found it for them I bet they repaired it asap, great spotting 👍😎
Well spotted !! Can you imagine the cost (and danger) if that gave way and dropped the whole thing ?!
German Giants, boastful much? How many human rights violations are you committing in your factories?
I do hope its not related to BMW, as the engine will be back in the workshop before they have even been fitted
Stop using the word "steel" - it is iron and when treated a magnesium addition it becomes Nodular, ductle or Spheroidal Iron (SG Iron). Also stop using the word "elastic" it is ductile and the casting has "annealed" itself in the mould to give a ferritic micro - structure. Sorry to be so pickie but accuracy is important when describing a process.
@@bigboreracing356 It is not "cast steel" - and that's from a metallurgist.
While we're at it: they're not "gantries" they're bridge cranes.
The word "elastic" instead of ductile was bothering this engineer, too.
Oh hell, we got a rocket scientist in the house.
@kevink8481, Correct terminology is imperative so other engineers know precisely what is described, and or required.
Although it's said that ignorance is bliss, so it's your choice to remain uninformed.
Nerds 😂😂😂
But the material they cut off is by no means scrap. It will be needed for the next melt...
As scrap...
It makes me wonder , what was the hugely labour-intensive paint job at the end for ? Most parts are either aluminium , brass , copper or massive steel components , corrosion is not a problem especially in a hot engine room . In fact these engines will never cool down in use so even condensation will not be a problem . I suspect the paint job is just to make it look pretty !
I want one of those engines in my Land Rover discovery 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm chuckling over the brands recognized. I see DeWalt cordless, and Loctite (Henkels) sealant.
Always amazes me how long piston rings, and valves and valve seats, last so long. Notice, everything is gear-driven, like in a piston airplane engine, or racing car.
I wander how much one of engin costs. Great engineering work. This is why Germany 🇩🇪 number one!
Look at the crack in the hoist when they lift the casting
I bet I can fit those turbos in my Miata ;)
On the Canaries, the same fast ferries runs pretty clean on gas. With turbines and big CAT diesels converted to LNG in Cartagena.
Super.
36:15 is there a gasket for the oil pan?
Amazing!
When your engines have staircases, then you have no doubt they are big, not South Korean transport ship big, but big.
Cool !
I remember seeing this show several years ago.
Congratulations?
@@derekspringer6448 No. I only commented because it appears they are recycling content but making it look like new content.
German Giants, engine manufacturing? How many toxic chemicals are you releasing into the atmosphere?
33:18 some kid with a 1990s Honda-car, has dreamt of fitting that to his engine.
big turbo on a small engine is useless as it will never spool up properly but i get your joke
Exelent video to learn
17: perfectly clean?!
"Do you think this would fit on my Honda?"
How can we get one of these engines in a Miata?
70yo gearhead here. This is practically pornographic to me. I would have loved to have a job in that factory.
Each of the cylinders in this v20 engine is bore 10.4" and stroke - 12.4". That's 1,053 ci - like 3 Chevy 350's per cylinder. It makes 13,400 BHP at 1,150 RPM. And uses 633 gallons of diesel fuel per hour!
Boeing needs to watch these craftsman! 😊
Comparing apples to oranges here.
German Giants, making engines, huh? How many indigenous lands did you bulldoze for your factories?
@@clgusa23689 what do Indigenous people have to do with this topic ? Go somewhere else with your opinion
@@amatuer2 It's important to acknowledge the impact of industrial development on indigenous communities. Dismissing their concerns only perpetuates the cycle of marginalization and exploitation. Let's strive for inclusive and sustainable practices that respect the rights and livelihoods of all people affected by industrialization.
Nice music video, what was the engine called. 😂😂
Rudolf Diesel is smiling. Mr. OTTO too, TBH.
"Con Rod" - do you mean Connecting Rod? And a "bolt" holds the Con Rod to the piston ? Do you mean the Wrist Pin? Guess you took a transcript from Germany to create this vid.
Yep, bolt is wrong. But as an auto tech myself, we often do use con rod as an abbreviation for connecting rod, but i think in a documentary it should be the full name.
Con rod is 100% accurate
Calling the guy with the oxy acetylene torch a welder was annoying too.
Mega engine manufacturing, FD Engineering? How many cover-ups are you planning for your workplace accidents?
This engine underway consumes 14 fluid ounces per second 8.8 gallons per minute 529 gallons per hour!! That is for each engine so all 4 consume 2,000 gallons an hour or 56 ounces per second. 🤯
Using the jet drives rather than propellers drops the efficiency by 35-40%.
I'll Bet Dan Dan's Glad he's back to work ... 🤔
Mega engine manufacturing, FD Engineering? How many child laborers did you exploit to cut costs?
@@clgusa23689 This is in Germany dude, take your trolling somewhere else.
I've already seen this episode like 2 years ago
24:00 Germany really gave us "the shaft"
will it fit in a miata????
Can we have a video on the marine diesels on the Dali
Give it up for overhead cranes.
What is the firing sequence of a 20 cylinder engines
German steel awesome
Almost like German silver
I bet that pipe something like monel k500 for corrosion resistance
I would like that turbocharger on my motorcycle. I’m know engineer but I like watching these videos just think how much that CNC machine cost.
impressive, but the maintenance cover is bent on one corner and needs maintenance.
If I was a billionaire I would want two of these awesome engines at my secondary power units buried into the mountain bunker…. Lmao 35yrs with just maintenance. Then you do a rebuild in place. 72k hours,,,holy smokes
Interesting that you give the engine 35 years while at a different source they give a ship 20 years to be replaced. Somebody is off the scale.
IKR? Then they show them dismantling part of the engine, which has been damaged by a crack in the block.
"UP TO" 35yrs. It depends on the application.
Mega engine manufacturing, FD Engineering? How many corporate executives are lining their pockets with blood money?
I'd like that turbo in my 2JZ supra
it wil never spool up😅
crank case? engine block? is it not an engine block you are talking about, the crank case is only part of that
Hey bro, i found The new turbo for the carproject
The point is that consumer vehicles are built to last around 9 years, so you keep buying a new ones. Repair of older vehicles does not help the mega companies. If they wanted we could have cars built to last a lifetime. They don’t want to make those cars.
The price for that car would be a lot higher also. Accountants build cars not the engineers.
Hard to believe John is still with you ??
Hmmm interesting these engines are not dry sump lubrication..
Would need a separate oil tank and plumbing.
Please be carefull not to lose that expertise like we did here in my country, Denmark. It will not come again if you lose it to East Asia.
This informational production could have been a real documentary without the reality show drama and music detracting from the presentation.
At 20:34 it's : Hey KIA take notes...and yet its sister company under his HHI division also make large marine engines. Maybe they equipped the Dali ? The answer is Yes. Her main engine, a 9-cylinder MAN-B&W 9S90ME-C9.2 unit manufactured by Hyundai Heavy Industries under license.
Everything in the Human body is Mechanical. But the thing's people don't understand. With Mother Nature theres no give no take any longer. She put us in this shelter to stop us to comfort us from a fall. She new it was evident, as we age. Our bone would get brittle like Pretzles. Sorry I had to sneak that in there... 🤔
Hopefully, they are more reliable than a BMW.
forgot to put some egr, dpf and adblue garbage systems in there
Just glad Dodge doesnt make this thing or they would be doing cam/valve changes on it way too often. No hemi-tick there!
What’s up with that dude’s white hardhat? It looks like he’s got a conehead underneath there.
In heaven, the chefs are French, police are British and the mechanics are German.
In hell, the chefs are British, the police are German and the mechanics are French.
Won't take long for AI to replace all of that ! (LOL)
lol @ the narrator it's not a bolt it is called a wrist pin.... hehe.
