Please remember I am starting a factory FROM SCRATCH! That means every single thing right down to refurbishing the toilet block and putting loo rolls on the holders right through to buying, installing and using new stamping, cutting, folding etc machinery and designing and making EVERY SINGLE PART!!!!! This whole project is a hell of a lot more extensive than simply designing a new pinball machine and assembling it using "off the shelf" parts.
Things are moving along at a brisk pace - the 4 x production line benches were delivered and installed today. They have excellent overhead lighting, power points along the underside of the top shelf (with circuit breakers and RCD installed on each bench) and anti static matting for the work surface. The top shelf allows for small bins of parts to be supplied to the exact work area where they are needed.
This will be the main assembly line for smaller assemblies such as flipper etc (10 metres long):
This is a shorter 5 meter line for checking PCB assemblies and to bench test mechanical assemblies:
This is the "R&D" room (more tables to be assembled, probably tommorow):
This will be the 5 meter PCB component assembly line - between the end of the line and the blue shelving will be the flow solder machine that I hope will be delivered before Chinese New Year so I can commission it while all the staff are off having a great time:
