It blows my mind that someone thought of all this, then sat down, made a plan, and made it all happen. Where are all those kind of people in my life???
The part where the molten hot glass rides on a slide and flies into the waiting presser, and a tiny little 'blocker' pops up on the rear end of the presser to prevent it from sliding to far, is pretty much the most amazing thing from me. Like it just feels like bubble gum and paper clips but it works so smooth and reliably XD
I was just wondering how glass products are mass produced. All I know about glass art is that it’s made by hand. I see, mass produced Glass is made from a mold.
How wonderful that was. Thank you, I am always amazed at automation. I think sometimes the process and machinery to produe the item is more fascinating than the item.
I'm the same way, man. Just in awe that these machines can successfully achieve something so delicate as making an incredibly fragile wine glasses by the thousands. I want a How It's Made on how some of these incredible manufacturing machines are designed and made!
I was a mold paster at a 24% full lead glass factory. I put the coating on the inside of the form for the blow machine. That was long ago. The only difference is our blow machine loaded the stem and fused the two all in one process.
Is it common to get tours of the factories where the goods you're delivering are being made? I've been considering getting my CDL, and this adds further motivation.
Thanks, well done the designers and the engineers who make the product. Using a carousel design machine is very efficient in this type of production, used it myself.
That was awesome. I wish it said something about what the prototype is for. It didn't seem to be used later on. They make new molds for the mass production. Maybe the prototype is used for testing? Or maybe they use it to know the exact weight of glass that goes into each part?
Thanks for a very interesting article, here are a few more tips for how to make wine… Use the correct equipment. Things like plastic buckets and bins come in different grades of plastic. You must use the food-grade plastic products not the cheaper buckets you might use to clean the floor! If plastic buckets and bins start getting scratched and grazed, replace them. The grazes will start harbouring microbes and eventually you’ll have a spoilt batch of wine. If stirring the must (the initial mix of fruit and water etc.) in a bin, scald the spoon with boiling water first to quickly sterilise it. Fill and top up airlocks with cooled, boiled water - never straight from the sink. Avoid metal spoons and sieves with fermenting wine - i.e. after the yeast has been added. Sometimes they can taint the wine. Avoid wooden spoons, which are hard to sterilise - plastic is far better. Reusing wine bottles is fine, ask friends to save them for you and check with local clubs or restaurants who are often happy to give them to you. Wash out immediately as a clean bottle will be a lot easier to sterilise when you come to use them. Rack your wine to clear it before bottling. That is, using a syphon tube, suck up the wine from one demijohn into another leaving the sediment (called lees) behind. The tubes with a base and valve are cheap enough and a make this easier. Allow the wine to settle for a week and repeat if necessary before bottling Never judge your wine by the taste as you bottle it. Most often you will think it is a disaster. Some wines can take two years to mature. As a general rule, try a bottle after six months. If it tastes harsh, leave the rest for at least another 5 or 6 months. Allow time. Time is the great wine maker and you should never be in a rush. We’ve made wine that was 9 months in the demijohn before bottling and drunk it three years later. The following year it was even better! (Reference: Pavas Grape Plan site )
Makes you wonder. Who is buying enough wine glasses to necessitate a whole automated factory. Like, do people just smash wine glasses left and right? The only wine glasses i've ever seen have been family heirlooms that never get used. Or "honey we need some wine glasses" type, that STILL never get used.
Yeah these are not super nice glasses you'd want to be really careful with and keep around for generations. These are for bars and restaurants that need to keep dozens or hundreds on hand and replace them regularly due to breakage or wear and tear from being used so heavily.

Mechanical Engineers :D
EXACTLY what I was thinking

Somehow i think these people are the professional equivalent of "fuck around and find out"

The best part about driving a truck was watching things like this be made!

That was amazing! Hail to the great production engineer's of today's world.
I never knew that different glass structure matters when drinking wine.
I did but I was too drunk to care.
What a manufacturing marvel! Very interesting.

That is insane!
just drinking wine and watching the johney depp case and i thought how tf is my glass made?! great video for my thought haha!
a mega pint !
Fascinating!
If the entire manufacturing process is mechanised, what is the purpose of making a prototype.?
Does anybody know the force of the air which is blowed to make the top of the glass ?
11
well human lungs can do it. how many PSI can the human lungs produce? are they drawing a vacuum at the bottom
I remember a test by experts blind testing wines, a couple of cheap wines were included. No one could pick out the cheap wine. Hahaha
I love my wine!!! White please sir.

That's the longest comment I've ever seen
Yeah but this "article" is about glass making.

05:38 not too rough for me to drink out of.
Perfect all is awsome..
actually learned something i thank you
Isn’t he the Kurzgesagt guy voice? Sounds offly similar 😮
Mosht intereshting. Hic!
My wine tastes better just from watching this.

Ours get used (always my wife's idea), but that's even worse. I get an anxiety attack whenever I have to handle or wash them.
Restraunts
Yeah these are not super nice glasses you'd want to be really careful with and keep around for generations. These are for bars and restaurants that need to keep dozens or hundreds on hand and replace them regularly due to breakage or wear and tear from being used so heavily.
Could you please tell me the name of the company which makes this video and manufactured the wine glass ?
Muhammad Renaldi well, idk the wine glass factory but this is from a show called How It’s Made

doubtful that this was a Reidel factory.... yet could have been. nothing in description.
Humans are amazing
Anyone else shocked no one is wearing any gloves while handling the molten glass?
It only takes 75 to 100 individual grapes to make a bottle of wine.
+Max Scadden OR.....one or two *really big* grapes!
Or 1000 little grapes. Don't forget about those little babies tucked in behind the big ones!
Faaaaaar less. Usually one vine gets a liter or so, from about 10 grapes
250,000 a day? Wow.
