Where the Factories Shop - Chinese Industrial Markets!

[@StrangeParts]

Thanks for all your concern regarding my health and the coronavirus. We filmed this in December, and I've been back in the US since Christmas. I've decided to stay on this side of the world until the epidemic dies down. In the meantime, I urge you to please be respectful of all the friends I have in China right now that may potentially be affected by this outbreak. This is obviously a scary thing, and the news isn't helping, but we're talking about real people, with real families, during Chinese New Year, with is the equivalent of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years all rolled into one big holiday. My thoughts and heart goes out to everyone in Shenzhen and across China!

About 30 years ago we built from scratch an arcade machine with 3 x 6" (stroke) air rams (2" wide) and a cockpit cabinet on a large steel frame. We installed a flying arcade game into it. It had a yoke flight control that I connected to the air control solenoids via darlington pair transistors to drive them. It used basic TTL logic to control the "flight" and I tapped into the game circuit board to automatically power up the control board and lift the front ram as it took off. When the game was finished I used an "end game signal" on the game board to shut the control board back off. We installed a seat belt as it was much more vigorous for smaller kids (It flew someone as big as 150Kg). It used 1/8" valves for the air flow to the rams and required a 10CF compressor to keep the air up to it. We tried 1/4" valves during our R&D phase and it was so fast and violent that it made the 200Kg machine bounce down the factory floor while I was yelling "Switch the f...ing thing off" as I was throwing the control lever backwards and forwards with no control. It had a 20" CRT mounted in it. It worked commercially in an arcade centre for about 5 years. There is a good air project for you.

[@PrimiusLovin]

I've never seen a similar place like this in Europe, which is a shame because it makes life easier for engineers and DIYs due to the brainstorming you get to build or fix something just from walking along these aisles! And besides waiting too long for items, buying online is also difficult to gauge what you want and compare what you're buying with other similar products just with a glance.

[@autonomousglisteningwater2286]

Its not in the best interest of big business to allow this. Basically they want you to buy their junk. Then throw it away if it malfunctions and buy the whole thing instead of fixing it yourself. Or even build your own.

[@OspreyKnight]

@@autonomousglisteningwater2286 Big business doesn't give a shit about DIY places like this. The number of people doing their own work even in industrial countries like this is insignificant compared to the regular consumer. In places like Europe or the US we have enough money to just buy another whatever so the number of people who would use a store like this are a few hobbyist makers. Reality is that these places aren't cost effective or efficient for business, and in places with safety and environmental standards the parts aren't cheap enough for steady diy business.

They also shows that there are people there who really are proud of their products. Most of the time we just hear about the bad products coming from China, but you show that there is more to it than that. Over time China is just becoming more and more of a mystery to me. You've got the government and the corruption, one the other hand there's thousands of years of history and art. They also have some pretty high tech industries and they are producing more and more original designs rather than simply copying products. But at the same time they flood the market with low quality knock off copies. There is a lot in China I find interesting and at the same time there is so much that makes me want to run in the general direction of away. And I'm already pretty far away...

Just going to add on the vibration sorter. I'm working in what is essentially a pepperoni factory. Small time family owned so automation is pretty limited, but we've got a sort of vibrating trough after the slicers which leads into an upwards elevator which dumps sausage into a weigher/bagging machine. trough's whole point is to vibrate all the pepperoni slices so that it consistently fills the next conveyor and doesn't overload it (since it's open and sausage can and does fall off onto the floor if it gets piled up). It's not a perfect solution since we have someone stationed at it to make sure it's working and everything is coming out of the trough nicely, but it definitely makes their job into more of a quality control thing instead of QC and constantly flattening piles of meat.

I'm in Shenzhen at the moment and would have loved to go there, Infortunetely I cannot find any references to any of the 2 names on the map. It would have been great I you could include a pin in the description of reviews.

When this video came out I was in a random other job; Now I have 3 years experience working between IT and OT in a factory with loads of different production lines it has taken on a whole new meaning on rewatch

[@berribeans6593]

Kenneth was a really fun addition to this! Thanks for the video!

[@reindeboer7374]

This is not the video that I expected but I really love it, you should do more of this random tech video’s!

[@paulojrg]

Those are the geek malls, love it!

if you could find an LED factory or LED stuff related theme would be so cool, i love LEDs

[@massimookissed1023]

I saw a vid on YT of a machine making LED Christmas light strings. It had that shaker-sorter pot to get the LEDs oriented & fed up to a gripper. The machine then electronically tested each LED for function & polarity. LEDs the wrong way round were diverted to be turned around. Another section measured out, stripped, & tinned wires. The oriented & working LEDs met up with the tinned wires & got soldered. Another section applied heatshrink. The whole thing just spat out a continuous stream of wired LEDs, in a choreographed mechanical ballet.

Vibration pods are one of the most impressive, it always made me think how things are completely passively moving UPWARDS ?!?!

I'm an engineering manager for a large pig and poultry feed producer, this place is heaven for me ❤ I'd love to visit! 😍😍😍😍

in the US we used to have supply chain stores like this but adopting JIT supply systems has left the US

[@nickmason279]

A new destination added to my bucket list. What an awesome place, thank you for sharing. We all know most of our stuff comes from China but to see a place like this is just WOW. As a Brit there's a question I've been dying to ask for ages concerning the American pronunciation of "solder" every American I've ever heard leaves the 'L' out and pronounces it 'sodder' while we say sol-der. It intrigues me.

[@JustAverageJeff]

I'm a fan of brave just started using it a couple months ago and I really like it, everyone should switch over to it.

[@jameswyatt1304]

Best travel channel on The Net, Scotty. Love every episode.

[@chinashorts1491]

Aw man, you even showed the lunch place. Damn, that really takes me back. I miss those places where you get a brick of rice, and then a whole bunch of whatevers to choose from.

[@joeextraknow2854]

I wish my house is near by so I can visit those places every day!!!

[@pyramydseven]

Kid in a candy shop. 👍🏼👽

[@sevenhenson3926]

Then u wont be earning enough to want to visit every day

I think "Watchon Bay" should be a good English name for HuaQiangBei ;)

I pay for KZbin red, I Hope you get a portion of that.

I do - Thank you!

[@JViello]

Ditto, was wondering the same thing. Thanks for asking and for answering.

@@StrangeParts As a note, I don't think I got shown one ad during this video, and I don't use ad blockers. So there might be something else going on with your ad revenue.

Try using the program called fluidsim pneumatics, it combines electrics and pneumatics and its has a very easy learning curve to it to start understanding and learning pneumatics :)

I think I'm blessed because if not I wouldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Mrs Lucy Mary Liam

Wow I'm just shocked someone mentioned expert Mrs Lucy Mary Liam I thought I'm the only one trading with her

@@CelestineGatley You don't need to be shocked I'm also a huge beneficiary of her trading, she has been handling my account for months now

If you think the solenoid is loud, imagine the sound of the air added to that, without the mufflers... then imagine 15 of them, running constantly, all day!

So basically factory for factories. Great video as always

[@vapex5462]

6:20 as far as I know (I'm integration engineer that worked with many different machines) red indicates that the motion on the machine is activated and that maintenance of the machine is dangerous green indicates that the machine is on "safe" condition when the motion is partly disabled and yellow is that the machine is off and there's live electricity on it.

12:09 I love how everything is made to look like Hakko soldering gear haha
