The video was created by Sulzer in 1984 and is based on footage material from the 1930s. It shows factory work in Winterthur, the challenging delivery of products and visits from and to international customes.

In those days overweight people were not hired at companies like Sulzer. It was a bad reflection on the companies image. Swiss companies were very "image" conscience. Overweight people tended to be slow, under productive, fall asleep at their desk etc and were often laid off if one happened to "baloon up" or gain a lot of weight. There were no laws against discrimination in those days. Even today a fat person is usually not hired versus a slender person if their qualifications are the same. Some predjudices never change.

For the people wondering about workers drinking at work. In that time it was common to drink and smoke at work. As it was common to work without protections or taking deadly risks to accomplish it. It was even regarded as healthy (well compared to the work definitely yes) And to sustain such stamina at work, you needed to be up to it. It was no meant to aggressive on each other :-)) Wine gave you strength ! As Mathew Fogerty pointed out. Men were tough ! They need to be ! My father too was having his content of wine. Was cycling forth and back to work after his 10 hours of duty and was gardening for the family after work for the fare. I suspect it was to stretch a little before dinner ;-) As far as I remember he never hit one of his many children. The man was a machine. His work was a tough one and he committed to it with dedication precision and modesty. Which was and remains admirable. Like many of the men you can see in this video. So don't talk like a spoiled brat. Just watch...

This video brings back family memories. My mother accompanied her father to visit several German manufacturers at around this time. He was just getting a cold heading business going, and visited machine suppliers (of cold heading equipment) as well as customers (for his fasteners). My mom would have been about 15 at the time of these film clips. (I don't know if they visited Switzerland, or if Sultzer was either a supplier or a customer. I didn't see anyone who looked like them, though.) However, this kind of tour would have been typical of their visit, and the manufacturing methods and conditions would have been similar to those in the US at the time. My grandfather had a very paternal relationship with his employees and would visit their homes to see how they lived. (Such a relationship would not be tolerated these days.) Twenty-odd years later, as a teenager, I also travelled with my grandfather to visit machine suppliers and fastener customers (but US only). A few years after that I worked in the toolroom, and a few years after that my mother was Chairman of the Board. A family-run business as long as we owned it. One of my cousins turned out to be the longest-serving employee in the history of the company from his teens to his retirement.

@PeterWMeek
@PeterWMeek 6 жыл бұрын
Ring Screw Works (one of the very rare incorporated Michigan businesses without either Inc or Co in the registered name). My family sold it to Textron in the late '90s; Textron may have sold it to someone else. My grandfather was apprenticed as a blacksmith in Sweden when he was seven years old. He came to the US around 1905 to Rockford, IL (huge Swedish community there) where he worked as a machinist. In 1920, the family moved to Detroit to be near the budding automobile industry. In 1929 he founded Ring Screw Works. Eventually we had 10 plants in the Detroit area and around 1100 employees. (My grandfather believed that no single plant manager could manage more than about 100 employees, and know each one of them personally - their strengths and weaknesses.)

Peter W. Meek First off that is amazing your Grandpa started a company right in 1929 and didn’t fail!And it’s super amazing how many companies supply parts to the automakers and you never hear of them! Reading around through Ring screw seems to be owned by a company called Acument Global Technologies and not Textron anymore but I can’t find a date on that but either way I wish there were more business/boss that cared about their employees!

That is the main difference between family owned versus holding company-owned businesses. Families can look ahead for generations while stockholder-owned holding companies rarely look beyond the next quarter. In spite of promises (hah!) made to us by Textron that they were buying RSW for its ethos (best in the business) and that they did not plan to change a thing, within a few years, the Textron stockholders replaced their top management with people who would generate higher dividends RIGHT NOW. So they raped RSW and sold off the pieces. Needless to say, neither the "new" Textron nor AGT gave a damn about the employees who (justifiably) now felt that our family had let them down. I don't know what else we could have done, but we were no longer able to provide family people to run the company and rather than become absentee owners with remote managers, we sold it to a company that we thought would keep following our business model. Nearly 30 years later, I still feel sick about what happened to RSW employees. When my mother was Chairman of the BOD, she followed the family tradition and made it a point to visit each plant every few months and go around and talk to each of those 1100 employees individually. She was nearly 80 when we sold RSW, and she took her stewardship seriously. You are both right and wrong about the number of suppliers to the auto industry. In one decade the number of fastener suppliers dropped from over 50 to just 5. When we sold RSW to Textron it dropped to 4. The big three automakers (four if you count Honda) were making every effort to reduce the number of suppliers by introducing requirements that only the largest suppliers could comply with. It worked, and like most things it had unintended consequences.

The old Greeks already knew hydraulic principles and made some simple machines, during the industrial revolution hydraulics, albeit with water, were commonly used. Some British cities did even have hydraulic networks, where high pressure water was distributed trough a pipe network. Parts of this can be seen in the museum of science and industry in Manchester.

C Smith That's more correct, compared to modern oil based hydraulic systems those water based systems had only about 1/10th of the pressure, and quite large cylinders were needed, so those were only suitable for large machines but not for hand tools. By the way, the Tower Bridge in London is powered by water hydraulics.

They were somewhere between 70s and 90s. These days there are too many women working in a mans job, for example making important political decisions. Thats the reason why Sweden has no-go places. Sad to think about it.

Sulzer a été mis sur la liste noire par les Alliés pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale en raison d'une augmentation des échanges commerciaux avec les pays de l'Axe. Sulzer a refusé de signer un accord limitant la vente future de moteurs diesel marins aux pays de l'Axe et a été mis sur la liste noire par les Alliés.

This video shows almost all the reasons why I wouldn't like to live in the 30's. But, maybe 100 years later from now people will be looking at similar footage from 2019 and would feel exactly the same. Unless the world would turn dystopian and past would look actually pretty.

@@Killerean I think the early 30's were a delightful period in terms of technological development, resulting in the removal of drudgery for some sections of Western culture for perhaps 5 years until the dark days of 1939. In my opinion, the 1950's in Australia were a great time that only a few of us lucky ones knew about and experienced. Glad I was there 😃

Most of those workers had worked on the farms from small children to adult hood. If the mule or some other piece of equipment did not kill them they were ready for factory work. They knew how to work safely although it was grueling and around very dangerous equipment.
