I recommend you research the term “industrial automation”. A very common standard for industrial manufacturing machine components are called PLC, programmable logic controllers. Another common material is T-slot aluminum extrusion rails, commonly used for structural aspects of a machine, a common brand of these is called 80/20.

4:18 So the pins are sorted afterward depending on the diameter of the head. This implies that control of the glass head application is left up to chance. I wonder if there are days when the run just won't yield what size they are attempting to make.
I wanted to see how the mixed up masses of pins or needles were straightened out before they were packaged. Who cares about the end result, the tangle of pins and sorting them into neat packages is what I wanted to see.
2:30 glycerine is not an oil. It is a triol, which is in the alcohol group. It dissolves in water because it has polar properties. The actual name is glycerol or 1,2,3-propan-tri-ol.
No, well yes he probably has balls like the rest of us, but more to the point that he knows that the needles from that point don’t fire out quick enough to penetrate his skin.
I want a How it's Made movie that first focuses on one product, then explains how they make the machines that make the product, then the machines that make the machines , and so on and so forth.
Me: *sees title* Also me: so an entire factory of a-holes is responsible for the pins and needles in my leg when it falls asleep and starts waking back up 💀
Just as amazing as making products are the machines that make them... And the machines that make the machines that make the product... Clever little people are we.
In the 1800s, the process of grinding the needles to the point was done by hand, on large sharpening stones. The process was so dusty that the poor workman's lungs soon filled with dust, and most of them were dead because of this around the age of 40. Water could not be applied to the stones to remove the dust, as this would rust the needles. So, whenever you look an old needle, remember that some poor guy in the 1800s had his life drastically shortened to make it :(
That is sad indeed. Good thing engineers came up with a different and more efficient way of grinding the needles, otherwise, people would still be dying until now by just grinding needles.
Efren Joseph Padua It's not just better processes, but better safety precautions people take in any work activity. Remember the time people mined and handled asbestos without knowing how dangerous it was.
I would like to see a video on how acupuncture needles are made. They're a lot smaller and made from stronger metal. On top of that they need to be 100% clean and sterile.
@@hannaliza2221 Ohh, they electroplate nickel and then gold onto the heads. Basically suspending nickel ions in a solution, running a current through that solution, and then placing the pin's heads inside. They do the same with the gold.
I thought the heated metal has to be cool down slowly in order to make it stronger like they do it when building an aircraft. But here, they cool it really fast and no defects form as a result? Confused. Thanks for the video.
It depends on the metallic properties required. Rapid cooling makes the pins rigid, which is useful if you don't want them to bend when sewing, but the metal is brittle. Slow cooling of aeroplane parts reduces brittleness, allowing the parts to flex with the stresses of moving during flight, and not crack with metal fatigue.
surely if the sizing gap 'gradually narrows' then *all* the pins would fall through right at the start? if the gap starts big and gets smaller? it would have to start small and gradually widen to allow sorting to take place
2:57 "And they emerge looking much smoother" *looks rusted and somehow less pleasant than before* Then they wash it with soap and water and add electro plating to cover up their blunder, but hey, habit is habit. XD (and for the chemistry nerds, have a little fun! I know what electroplating is for XD)

Yeah pretty much
just a btw, watched this, not watching any more
@@creepychris420 You lier...
Instead, you watch a video of How it's ACTUALLY Made. (Huggbees)
I'm just seriously fascinated by the engineering that goes behind building the building machines
All very interesting, but I wish someone would make a video on how those automated machines that make the products are made.

They're assembled by hand. Many parts are machined by hand. Others are stock parts.

Many selling points. A good pun.
You can *hear* the smirk on her face, too.
I am more annoyed than I should be that she emphasized the selling portion, and not the points portion.

THAT is a smart person right there.
You pinhead XD
Yes
Who yah calling a pin head
Good ole Ironskin.
Professional point tester.
damn i gotta admire those engineers who designed the machine.

2:38, but how did they make THAT needle?!?!
what came first. the needle or the millions of dollars worth of needle making machines?
i thought the same , but i'm guessing they made the first one manually XD
tools are made from tools made from tools made from tools.
same process, this is just used to contain them, you can just pick a needle out of the pile for that

Why am I binge watching How it's Made videos at midnight?
because your life has no purpose and you are drifting in a sea of worthlessness until the sweet embrace of death takes you, like the rest of us?
why ARENT you binge watching how its made at midnight?
too funny.
Same reason we all do. Welcome to the Club.
I was so amazed at the glycerine wrapping thing and rolling for two days🤯
So they don't sit on someone's leg for three hours and extract the pins and needles from there?
What
@M Pulverman oh 😂😂😂
2:06 guy goes "Aaaaaahhhh!!!"
02:05 OUCH OUCH OUCH OUCH!!!!!
Thank you so much for the amazing video How It's Made on Needles and Pins always wondered how they were made
they use needles to help make needles.... BRILLIANT
I wouldn't have thought so much work goes into making such a simple tool.
We can finally play finding a hay in needle stack :)
Those needles are so well made; that every time they spot a defective one, is like finding a hey in a needle stack😝
Not a 'hey'. More like a YEET! In case of missed ones.
4:22 presenter says "the gap narrows" in reality the gap expands.
+wcolby Shes too busy making all those puns to pay attention HAHA
wcolby whoa shit bruh
I thought the exact same thing! Well spotted!
its relative to which direction you're looking at it from. it narrows towards the end where the pins first drop onto

Where's the haystack?
hidden in 100000 needles
please see: How it's Made: haystacks
You must find it in the needle stack first

Before I'm not curious about how needles are made, now because of lockdown, I'm wondering how needles are made during old times and what it looks like
First, you get a rat and harvest the bones....
Wire was cut and then the end flattened and awled out and it was sharpened on a whet stone.
Its 3:50am. Did i search this? No.
But will i happily watch it? Yes.

These videos really get to the point

good to see this video. helpful for my bussiness. Thanks

what's really amazing is the factory machine O_o

Hi O_o
And the engineers who designed them.
2:37 - How did they stitch up the first lot of needles if they hadnt made any needles to stitch with yet?
They used an Awl and string.
excellent

This bundle looks so tight, I'm surprised the needles can tumble around at all when they're in the polishing tumbler
If they stitch the bundle of needles before they are ready where do they get the ready needle to stitch the bundle in the first place?
Many operations have been done to make needle. Every thing is shown perfectly, from wire cutting to packaging.

honestly why youtube keep randomly giving me these recommendation after 8 years the video was posted???
What did the needle say to the pin, ??? I've got my eye on you.
damn I gotta admire those writers who add these puns.
This guy obviously lives life on the edge.
Anyone else watch that poor dude's hand flinch when the needle pricked him?
Imagine if someone fell into a bin of these in this factory 😣🤕
Then they would really be on pins and needles
That needle sorter is bad ass... o_o
3:29 seeinf all those needles an i'm thinking "all these get used?"
guy: Places hand under head first needles* GENIUS
Really appreciate your outstanding video. But it did not show the hay stack

2:38 and stitch it up (with another needle?)...
So, how was the first needle made :P
