Q&A + Fun Facts!

Let's take a look at some answers to some of your questions as well as some fun facts about manufacturing!

Over 36,000 Lego bricks are made every single minute, and they’re so precise that they fit together perfectly, even from sets made years apart.

Parts of skyscrapers like the Burj Khalifa were prefabricated in factories and shipped to the construction site.

  • The PlayStation and Xbox are made using thousands of tiny parts that are put together by machines smaller than your hand. Without manufacturing, no gaming!
 
 
 

In some factories, robots work alongside people to build cool things like cars, gadgets, and even toys. Some robots can even dance when they finish their tasks!

A Look at
Maintenance & Repair Workers

Maintenance and repair workers in a manufacturing setting are responsible for ensuring that equipment and machinery operate efficiently and safely. They perform routine maintenance tasks, such as cleaning, lubricating, and adjusting machinery to prevent breakdowns. When equipment malfunctions, they diagnose issues and make necessary repairs, minimizing downtime and ensuring production continues without significant interruptions.

A Look at
Manufacturing Supervisors

Manufacturing supervisors oversee the daily operations of production teams in a manufacturing facility. They are responsible for ensuring that production goals are met, maintaining safety standards, and managing the workforce.

A Look at
Welders

Welders are skilled tradespeople who use heat to fuse metal parts together, creating strong, durable bonds in a wide range of materials, from steel to aluminum. They work with various welding techniques, such as MIG, TIG, and arc welding, to perform tasks in manufacturing.

A Look at
Machinists

 

Machinists are skilled workers who operate machines and tools to create precise metal parts and components used in manufacturing processes. They work with a variety of equipment, including lathes, mills, and CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines, to shape, cut, and finish materials according to detailed specifications.

A Look at
Production Workers

Production workers in manufacturing are responsible for assembling, operating, and maintaining machinery and equipment to produce goods in a timely and efficient manner. They perform tasks such as assembling components, inspecting finished products, and ensuring that production lines run smoothly.
