900 Fahrehenheit = 480 Celsius. You're welcome :)

great video but why in Fahrenheit, inch? You know that the common American-drinking-bud-watching-Football douchebags wouldn't have a slightest idea of what "extrusion" or "aging" is. Simply because you have to be an Engineering or Chemist student to understand it. And these guys usually know and prefer the metric system, quite naturally, like the rest of the world.

@nadavg10 Exactly, I'm an Engineering student and get so frustrated when Americans insists in using fahrenheit and inches. Not only does the calculations become inaccurate, but it takes up so much unnecessary time and energy to convert whatever you might need to convert.

@FreddoX1 At least you only have to deal with one of it. Like the Americans. Here in Canada. I have to put up with both. Which causes me to prefer some things Standard and other things Metric. Ex:

Large scale, in KM, to know the distance. Small scale, inches and feet. Like my height and working in the machine shop. Seeing that many 'mm' like 500 is hard to see. Likewise, 500feet, I can't see that either. I want that distance in meters.

@FreddoX1 con't: To visualise the weight of something and get a 'feel' for it. - pounds. If I have to actually work with it and apply math; metric. g and kg work together better than pounds and ounces.

Yeah, I know, it's all fucked up. and we should just move to metric, but the assholes in Toronto still want to communicate with the assholes in Detroit, because our borders are too close. Europe is in its nice own world. Lucky bastards. :)

@gredangeo Haha, yeah. It will take a while for North-Americans to have it in them naturally to have a feel for a certain weight measured in kg's and grams. Just the fact that our continents have these two separate types of measurements comes with a big draw-back; Very few people in Europe are willing to work with American companies.

Just look at Britain, they use the same system as America and their industry is horrible because Germans and Scandinavians avoid working with them.

man i am working at sapa right now and i wish they would pay more since we are working our asses off every 5 days 12 hours under hot temperature, to your interests they raised the hourly payment to 10,50 but it is not that great to the hours we work

@bbmohammed if you don't like the pay, I suggest you get yourself in school to learn a skilled trade so you have a marketable skill to offer. If you do the kind of things that guys in this video are doing you shouldn't be making good money, it lacks any skill other than a couple hours training. This isn't a dig on you or these guys, it is the reality of the working world. I trained as a machinist, when I started I didn't make shit, as I learned more I earned more.

how much would one of these machines cost? and where would they even purchase one of these machines

I worked for Universal Alloy in Canton, Ga where I ran a 16,200 ton press, it wasn't automated like this. The other guy is right, they don't pay shit, 10-12 bucks an hour. More if you work in Ultra Sonic Inspection or Die Repair.

How do you extrude stuff with holes in it?

@eyescreamcake basically the same way you would a solid die.

@TheAmericanArm Unfortunately manufacturing has become slave work. I know. I worked in forgings for a bit and saw how hard operators worked and how low a wage they earned. Helpers started at $9/hr (in 1998). This was evidenced by the very high turn over rate. They earn as much working at the mall.

what the product from this procrss ??

TheBestgajooo 1 year ago

@TheBestgajooo Those look like bearing housings. But absolutely loads of stuff is made by extrusion. Casings and heat sinks are common. As well as tubing. Most tubing is made by rolling sheet metal into a tube shape, then welding the seam shut. The seam can create a weak spot, it's an area for contamination to collect inside the tubing and it creates extra drag on the material passing through. Nuclear and aerospace guys will use pierced (extruded) tube instead, so it's all one piece minus welds.
