Cool Full Camaro Ultimate Factories Video: From Sheet Metal to End of the Line


Featured on Camaro5 HOMEPAGE

This is Holidays time, so take a look at the 45 minutes video of the full, I mean full, assembly of our favorite car. ENJOY...

Sorry if it's a repost, but I have'nt seen any post of this video from months and months. You will all see what goes in and all the engeering required to build your car. Again Enjoy. 45 minutes video.

WATCH VIDEO @ http://www.camaro5.com/full-camaro-u...nd-of-the-line

Here are some interesting tidbits :
  • Each Camaro takes 18 hours of assembly time
  • There are 734 robots doing the nearly 5,000 spot welds needed to create the body shell for each Camaro Coupe.
  • In order to get to the paint shop the Camaro body has to be transported on a bridge over a city street where it is painted and then shipped back across the bridge to the trim area for final detailing.
  • One Camaro rolls off the assembly line approximately every minute.
  • The Camaro engine is produced at a different plant and has to be shipped approximately 2 hours to the assembly line where it finally meets the Camaro.

I took the tour this Summer- It took me over 2 hours going at a slow pace. Thanks GM.
Great experience.

Great experience.
I was at Oshawa also, but we did'nt have the chance too see all the robots working sheet metal and the paint section. No mans land.
But we saw all the assembly work from the pre-painting guys working from their white mits and then from the car coming out of the paint shop. We where so close thet we could even talk with some employees right from the line.

This was great! I would have loved to see more detail, like putting on the XM antenna and putting in the carpeting. Also I thought that a person actually got in the trunk to for the leak test.
