I worked as a Machine Designer for over 45 years. This is video is a real as it gets. It's challenging to come up with concepts that meet all the requirements, but deeply rewarding when you see it all come together and work.
@@maalikserebryakov Hi. First I need to say up front that I enrolled as an ME student but did not complete and get a degree. I was able to get into engineering as a draftsman, pre CAD era, and advanced from there. I thought that this would be a detriment and sometimes it was, but overall being able to come up with concepts to solve problems is more important. That's the part that I most enjoyed. Most designers rely on ratings from the manufacturers of the components that we incorporate into the designs. Most of these have huge safety factors designed into them. Components such as gears, sprockets and chains, pulleys and belts and others are designed, tested and rated by their manufacturers. If used appropriately, there shouldn't be any problems. Another thing at the time, pre CAD, was that strength calculations were laborious and expensive so it wasn't done if it could be avoided by just adding more heft. Most of the machine design I was involved in was for capital equipment; machines used to make consumer products. These were stationary and most engineers got away with overdesigning the components. However, there are systems and other operations within these machines where mass is detrimental. The newer CAD FEA programs get better every year and really show how kinetic mass can be reduced and still increase the strength of the components. And these calculations can be done quickly and efficiently and make for a better overall design. Having an engineering degree is invaluable for knowing how to setup CAD FEA parameters - knowing what range you expect for the outcome of the calculations provided by the program. The old GIGO still applies.
Hey brother , Can you tell me How You Engineers Think like what Gonna work And what not and Which material should we use And who is in charge for expense. And sometimes you Also fails so How your team manage Failures.
I just wanted to say that you are doing an incredible job by letting young people like myself know everything about what to do/what to expect etc. Just started watching your channel a month ago and have already finished all of your videos and waiting for more. :)
This is amazing and actually shows the depth of thinking every engineer needs to put in while designing a component which is actually practical. Having worked with Rolls-Royce PLC for 1.5 years now, I can say this is one of the best field a Mechanical Engineer can work in!
Very comforting to see such a smart and proactive young person getting the real world training required to make a Positive difference in the world. thanks for making this video.
Nice video. As a supplier of Tesla in Asia, it is really stressful for us while your assembly plan ramping especially parts including semi-conductors. I am pleased to work with many Tesla’s engineer and GSM(Global Supply Manager), SIE( Supply Industrialization Engineer) and PM(Program Manager). Although the request is sometimes demanding, it feels relieved and honored after both of us achieved a target altogether. Not only just DFM, there are so much Tesla language in a proto-build such as RC( release candidates), MRD and SOP etc. these confuses people if a supplier did not realize what these acronyms stand for.
Well SOP is industry standard.... But I thought Elon was against unnecessary abreveation? I'm the quality assurance and control specialist for Toyota Distributors. The confusion sounds bad, this is why industrial standard terminology makes work easier. Great video BTW.
Just the way how you pan out your videos and concisely choose the words you wanna say to put out the most informative video shows why you got into Tesla. Keep up the good work.
This is my dream job. I am so jealous, but I still have a long way to go since I am only in my second semester of college for electrical engineering at UF. Still, this video gives me second thoughts because of how you described the mechanical design engineering process. Thank you for your videos. They really do help.
Don’t switch from electrical, it’s a great field with big opportunities, you could work anywhere and I have found it so easy to learn knew things such as mechanical design while still working as an electrical engineer
i love how organized are your videos, the train of thought, the timestamps, very neat and clearly previously planned. Also, it's pretty cool to see what u do as an engineer, as a mechatronics undergrad, I get inspired by ur videos
I appreciate it and ya I understand that the people watching my videos value their time, so I try to deliver as much useful information in a concise manner.
I got to 3:28 and thought you said, “We usually don’t wear cologne” & I just nodded my head thinking… sure that makes sense, don’t want to fume out everyone you’re working with. Lol. Anyways, thanks so much for your help, I’m working on finding my first engineering job and all your videos are so helpful and really give me a good idea on landing something I hope to really enjoy
Amazing, that was a perfect overview for people looking to get into engineering. I've been doing it for over 30 years and learn something new every day. It's a very rewarding career.
You're so humble, I love it. No fancy laptop/desktop setup, no expensive ultra tech car. Just a normal dude not flexing and being simple, that uses what's needed.
Bro u don’t understand how much you have helped me. Not gonna go on a rant because it’s too long but I just wanna say thank you. Imma gonna sub to u now!
I really appreciate that you're down to earth. And nicely explaining things, and (not bragging). Thank you!🙂🙏 ( I've watched a number of engineers and programmers on UA-cam and some of them start acting like their gods😶)
I am a general contractor and have been project manager and arc/ engineering consultant on many diverse commercial projects. and this as accurate and concise a description as i every heard at many meetings. I wish you luck and success in your career
Wow, extremely well put together with no fluff just one crucial point after another with great examples. The quality is on par with the best educational videos I have ever seen.
I really appreciate your ability to be comprehensive and succinct while not being boring. Keep doing what you do! Those of us involved in a similar struggle really appreciate you.
Thank you for the video I really enjoyed it. I’m saving up to go to school for automotive and transportation design and the end goal is to design, build , and manufacture my own super cars and seeing this video was extremely helpful.
There's really nothing extra in the video, which is pretty impressive. I'm a highschooler who doesn't know what to choose after highschool, and I feel like your channel would be a great help!
I'm glad you like it. Spend time in high school trying as many things as possible (ex. sports, clubs, robotics, student council, side hustle, etc.) and eventually, you'll find out what you like.
As many others said, these videos are awesome. Thanks a ton for sharing your experiences. Is it a bit intimidating not knowing what to expect, being a student. These shed some light and bring some peace of mind.
Great video. I'm a new ME and I'm kinda worried about what to expect on my first job. I'd like to work with someone that really knows what they're doing before being responsible for a really important part.
I’m a Computer IT student at ACC (2nd year) and I’m thinking about changing my major to the manufacturing Tesla program, but I don’t know anything about the car parts, the technology, etc…., but this video helped a lot thank you! 🙂
Also ex-Tesla. Thanks for making this video! A lot of my coworkers who left have very similar experiences. For us in the ML side, we just got extremely high expectations and no roadway to get there. It was a "do this task no one has ever done before". Also agree that most people are amazing, kind, and extremely intelligent. That being said, about 10% is composed of what we used to call "cult-like behavior", where they lived and breathed everything Tesla. These people were really difficult to please and always had unrealistic expectations and work loads. Finally, the work hours, no remote option, and trash pay is why 25%+ of my team left. We were all surprised at how we get paid 2x or 3x the amount we used to get and have a MUCH healthier work life balance. I loved the learning but for us it was an overall really bad experience that left really bad burnout, anxiety, and depression for some.
get used to it.. same everywhere you go.. which is why people rotate jobs every so often.. or interview every so often to check if they can get increased salary..
@@ericy.2108 I would within the past 6 months, the pay rate has fallen quite a bit below average for engineers. Some of us got nearly 100k more salary by moving to a different company. This is one reason that we were all kind of frustrated -- Tesla rarely makes salary adjustments and with inflation with quite high these days, it makes other companies way more favorable
@@Mellowyellow8888 This is true but we shouldn't get used to it. It encourages companies to not compensate appropriately despite how essential they are
Thank you so much for the video, i didn't know what to expect. I'm going to graduate soon and I've been seriously thinking of applying to Tesla in one of their gigafactories as a mechanical design engineer. Sounds like it is a tough job but rewarding. If i can land the job i feel like it will be a great first step into my field.
im a mechanical design engineer in the oil/gas industry. this was surprisingly relatable. but i get my "A Surface" is normally on a napkin! i turn it into a concept then do engineering, sourcing materials, then turn that small 4x4 napkin into 200ft workover rigs!
Nice vid. Bit hectic pace but good walkthrough of ME role. Different companies have some different processes. Every working engineer kinda dreams and thinks a lot when “off the clock” and “out of the office”.
I also worked at Tesla as a full time grad student and boy was that stressful. Lots of times as I would come into the office in the morning, there were just people sleeping there near an outlet lol. The work you get to do is really interesting but you really gotta have a passion for the stuff or else you will burn out!!
Wonderful Thanks very much for the guidance and advice This is really helpful, Engineering is a quiet tough program and with such good motivation, positive energy will be activated in most of us Thanks very much Engineer
Now someone has to make it so there's not so many panel gaps upon delivery haha! That and what you mentioned at then end--making so many parts, but have them be the same.
such a great video, i will be graduating soon from engineering school and let me tell you how i have no idea what to expect haha, i obviously know the topics you talked about but it's all so cmplicated in my head, thank you for laking things clear

I worked as a Machine Designer for over 45 years. This is video is a real as it gets. It's challenging to come up with concepts that meet all the requirements, but deeply rewarding when you see it all come together and work.
I have a Q
How do engineers calculate the dimensions of their design’s parts?
do you do it on CAD or mathematical Programme or what

A proper BRIEF explantion !
Great work !
It's really nice video 🙂 thanks for clarification, it's was very important for me as CNC machinist and CAD designer
Great video, very informative! Also, nice Vivo boots!
This video gave some great insight. I'm in computer engineering so I haven't been exposed to mechanical processes like this very much.
Epic video. Your ability to get the information across in a quick, useful and fun way is brilliant. Well done
