  • With more than 11,000 employees, the Mercedes-Benz plant in Wörth is the largest truck factory in the world. Every day more than 400 fully roadworthy trucks run off the line here. From Wörth am Rhein they are exported all over the world - sometimes even via the factory-owned container port.
    Our truck documentary accompanies the development of a Tractor Actros - from the first drawings of the designers, the work steps in the engine plant in Mannheim to the final assembly of the truck in Wörth.

      @@capitanulcacaoernesto8215 German engineering is top notch. But best in the world? I don’t know. I guess it depends on what they’re making. I can tell you first hand, they can’t make a coke worth I plug nickel. It taste dirty compared to here in the USA. I’m kidding of course, you are correct, they’re incredible. The workmanship is astounding, but it’s more than that. It like their products have soul or personality, it’s a bit spooky really. Also, just to work in a Mercedes plant, one must be identified early in their education, then they must pursue that track. Then make a minimum GPA, then they must serve and apprenticeship before they are fully vested with company. Those people a serious!

Also many trucking companies rely on the Mercedes-Benz trucks here, no matter if they operate in the flatlands or the mountains, in the far north or south

    I was stunned to see the incredible number of holes in the 2 frame sections at the very beginning of this video. I realize that these frames come standard and are used for many different variations of trucks,. when the truck is done there are so many holes without a bolt in them , how strong is that frame really?

      It Passed all of the Required test without an Issue so i wouldnt worry about the holes .. alot of companys acutally add Compressors with some of the Holes are used for since atleast here in germany youare not allowed to add more holes lol (not that that would be nessescarry lol)

      @stoatrepublic 4 роки тому +10

      The holes are all on the sides, there are no holes in the top and bottom, that is where the strength is.
      Also you are not allowed to weld anything to the chassis, the only welded joints are where sections are joined together, there is normally two channels one inside the other and riveted together so that the holes between the inner and outer line up for the bolts and cross member installation and they help reinforce the welded joints.
      Chassis is very springy, even removal of one cross member as an effect on the overall rigidity. Its incredible how much torsional twist there is on the overall length of a bare chassis when driven, I mean if you follow one on the road you can see it quite noticeably.
