Those Kuka robots never fail to amaze me. Seeing them in action is simply astonishing. One of the things I recognize from my experience in Munich is that the CF molding and bonding process takes a lot longer than simply welding aluminum together. I wonder how much more time/cost this adds to the manufacturing process?

Personally, I think those robots should form a union. They are obviously overworked and rumor has it they don't make minimum wage. Plus, certain robot activities should be protected, like filing a complaint or being paid while enduring a lube job.

I have always wondered how they keep their factories so damn clean.
