FloorMaster - Floor Truss Assembly Machine

[@straightjacket308]

Plant I work at has the table press bar welded together. A few months ago I noticed that the weld holding the two ends together, to make one long bar, had a significant crack in it. Our boss said it's nothing to worry about because all the pressure is going to keep anything from snapping. At the same time our maintenance man said he'll fix it when the weld finally snaps. 🤷 Guess we're just waiting to die at work. It's amazing how this company I'm watching on this video seems to care about their employees comforts, while at my plant our boss wants one person to lift one of those trusses by himself or herself. With expectations of getting 7,000 board foot a day.

Wonder why many truss manufacturer never use glue or even nails?

[@crosisofborg5524]

Why are the 2xs set with the larger dimension in the horizontal instead of the much stronger vertical?

[@billcoley8520]

Very nice setup.

[@davidrobins4025]

Slick way to do the job.

[@scottwebber652]

So if the trusses r all the same why isn’t the floor level. Where do strong backs get installed ?

[@jaewok5G]

somewhere is a factory floor assembly line manufacturing these machines to be installed on another factory floor assembly line.

how many feet produce between 4 people?

[@sbjforever]

Seems like a lot of investment needed to replace labor that needs to be there anyway, to set up each job before the machine sweeps.

I've alway ran into hydraulic issues with these things. It takes a while to work out the kinks

[@dareisnogod5711]

WRONG ! NOT: "I've always RAN..." ; I've always RUN...

[@wizbangFLL]

​@@dareisnogod5711 Well that sounds silly! You didn't mention about the word "always" was misspelled. If you are going to critique someone else you should be accurate and complete.

I wonder how the height stays. As always it looks good on paper as the pencils say but here in the real world it don't always go like the paper says

[@florianluncan9328]

250

[@memo247na7]

[@timoteovargas5764]

[@davidaguila1006]

This actually decreases production by alot

[@ramonmuniz5981]

All we do is work faster :) ...the tables nice and all . But I prefer manual tables with fast non lazy workers .
