00:00:00.030 right we're here today right now on the 00:00:02.54000:00:02.550 health and safety walkway I feel boilers 00:00:06.38000:00:06.390 ideal boilers have been manufacturing 00:00:08.24000:00:08.250 boilers on this site since they were 00:00:09.95000:00:09.960 founded in 1906 they were one of the 00:00:12.29000:00:12.300 first companies to invent a British 00:00:13.99900:00:14.009 boiler that had central heating in the 00:00:15.79900:00:15.809 cooking heat of the 1920s the O series 00:00:18.43900:00:18.449 to the mid 1930s the slightly more 00:00:20.39000:00:20.400 modern and koechli named number three 00:00:22.46000:00:22.470 domestic gas the 1950's autocrat the 00:00:25.22000:00:25.230 1960s elites the 1970s Concorde 1980s 00:00:29.00000:00:29.010 sprint the 1990s classic and classic se2 00:00:32.15000:00:32.160 boilers that we know today the 2009 00:00:34.40000:00:34.410 logic plus and the logic max one of 00:00:36.70900:00:36.719 which I'm going to be able to build 00:00:37.79000:00:37.800 later in this video and also the VOAD 00:00:39.77000:00:39.780 generation 2 and Katrina my guide showed 00:00:42.44000:00:42.450 me that they were still investing on 00:00:44.00000:00:44.010 improving their factory even today 00:00:52.02900:00:52.039 and your presence is this the bit you 00:00:54.65000:00:54.660 super super secret everywhere that see 00:00:58.09000:00:58.100 due to the pressure I mean it looks like 00:01:00.92000:01:00.930 they're in the in the process of in the 00:01:03.04900:01:03.059 tool okay 00:01:04.85000:01:04.860 these presses figure that you can say so 00:01:07.52000:01:07.530 we we met money but you all of the funds 00:01:09.95000:01:09.960 that going to go so they're not 00:01:13.85000:01:13.860 so it's in flat sheet and they get built 00:01:16.31000:01:16.320 and they get so having learned about how 00:01:24.29000:01:24.300 ideal borders are going to update their 00:01:25.85000:01:25.860 factory Katrina then led us off to the 00:01:27.83000:01:27.840 next stage 00:01:28.67000:01:28.680 the ominously named clench machine 00:01:34.38000:01:34.390 and that's what I'm gonna do that right 00:01:35.70000:01:35.710 now the truck is into the back 00:01:39.12000:01:39.130 so the sentences in that rate in that 00:01:40.95000:01:40.960 equipment 00:01:43.02000:01:43.030 all the panels that are made in the 00:01:45.19000:01:45.200 press and fought over to the clinch 00:01:46.71900:01:46.729 machine and then laid in this special 00:01:48.70000:01:48.710 unit by the guys on ship there's loads 00:01:50.64900:01:50.659 of little sensors that make sure they 00:01:51.91000:01:51.920 don't miss a unit out and then the 00:01:53.80000:01:53.810 clinch machine comes down and does its 00:01:55.77900:01:55.789 work and then the certain stage into the 00:01:57.91000:01:57.920 clinch machine 00:02:00.42000:02:00.430 [Music] 00:02:04.82000:02:04.830 I'm sure that there's no welding and 00:02:08.34000:02:08.350 there's no riveted on this chassis okay 00:02:11.67000:02:11.680 no wells at all no welding we then 00:02:14.85000:02:14.860 popped over to a really cool bit that I 00:02:16.50000:02:16.510 always loved to see and that's actually 00:02:18.21000:02:18.220 watching the chassis 'he's getting 00:02:19.65000:02:19.660 painted up the chassis x' and the whole 00:02:21.78000:02:21.790 line are electrostatically charged to 00:02:24.12000:02:24.130 actually attract the paint to them when 00:02:26.13000:02:26.140 it's being sprayed on 00:02:27.24000:02:27.250 I'll let Katrina explain more soil there 00:02:31.41000:02:31.420 this is a fully pulled out yes or no is 00:02:33.36000:02:33.370 that also not good area of which the 00:02:35.52000:02:35.530 guys who have put them there chassis 00:02:36.75000:02:36.760 John they'll have a quick look okay and 00:02:39.72000:02:39.730 it goes one they're not happy where 00:02:40.77000:02:40.780 they'll take off the line yes we can 00:02:45.38000:02:45.390 the shutters come round on the conveyor 00:02:48.29000:02:48.300 I'm going through and then the guns 00:02:50.21000:02:50.220 actually pin blasting the powder paint 00:02:53.39000:02:53.400 onto the shafts a solar brownies 00:02:55.13000:02:55.140 electrostatically charged and the Pens 00:02:57.59000:02:57.600 stick then it goes through the ovens and 00:02:59.81000:02:59.820 when it goes through the earth obviously 00:03:01.13000:03:01.140 it melts the pen who kills the page 00:03:03.05000:03:03.060 someone's seen how the chasis were made 00:03:05.06000:03:05.070 and I knew there in a few minutes time 00:03:06.62000:03:06.630 I'd be building one of these borders 00:03:08.18000:03:08.190 myself so I thought it'd be a good idea 00:03:09.83000:03:09.840 to not go into this completely blind and 00:03:12.23000:03:12.240 meet the people who make the components 00:03:13.94000:03:13.950 and see what the components are that go 00:03:15.98000:03:15.990 inside the boiler so these guys put in 00:03:17.81000:03:17.820 their gas governor I like to liken it to 00:03:26.30000:03:26.310 like a little bit the jigsaw so you have 00:03:28.04000:03:28.050 the chassis the box with all of its 00:03:29.60000:03:29.610 going to turn back over and then the 00:03:30.94900:03:30.959 series of subassemblies that the 00:03:32.93000:03:32.940 operator we actually all pick as soon as 00:03:36.29000:03:36.300 it burns put them together then ten 00:03:38.47900:03:38.489 minutes 00:03:39.73000:03:39.740 I had a quick chat with a lovely old boy 00:03:41.71000:03:41.720 called Li he was building and testing 00:03:43.57000:03:43.580 the gas valve slipped the bomb paint now 00:03:52.05000:03:52.060 what we do is scan the ball 00:03:54.64000:03:54.650 first of all Italy actually snapped onto 00:03:56.92000:03:56.930 the web station 00:03:58.68000:03:58.690 they started expertly constructing up 00:04:01.48000:04:01.490 this gas valve putting on the o-ring 00:04:03.07000:04:03.080 that I'm sure loads of you guys have 00:04:04.27000:04:04.280 seen but you probably didn't know that 00:04:06.01000:04:06.020 there's loads of cameras that are 00:04:07.27000:04:07.280 actually filming the back of the valve 00:04:08.77000:04:08.780 to make sure that certain things and 00:04:10.54000:04:10.550 clips are in even this torque wrench is 00:04:12.73000:04:12.740 using Reed's back to a computer to say 00:04:15.25000:04:15.260 that the actual gas valve has been 00:04:16.69000:04:16.700 tightened up properly and that plug is 00:04:18.58000:04:18.590 got there is telling the computer while 00:04:20.41000:04:20.420 it's being tested that everything's ok 00:04:22.24000:04:22.250 so we actually open the gas valve and 00:04:24.94000:04:24.950 Ringo's green 00:04:27.80000:04:27.810 okay they're bar tied on yeah and then 00:04:31.91000:04:31.920 banging over there onto the rig picnic 00:04:36.71000:04:36.720 the water set onto the rig fix yours 00:04:42.93000:04:42.940 and what's that little laser there 00:04:44.52000:04:44.530 there's like a little laser a bit 00:04:46.85000:04:46.860 there's a fight with a know about the 00:04:52.95000:04:52.960 washer passing that into the position 00:04:56.16000:04:56.170 tighten it finger tight 00:04:59.93900:04:59.949 once you've gotta talk to lights and 00:05:02.73000:05:02.740 come on man like I need a little washer 00:05:06.70000:05:06.71000:05:09.07000:05:09.080 ha 00:05:10.74000:05:10.75000:05:12.21000:05:12.220 that's it done I toured around the 00:05:15.72000:05:15.730 factory for a few hours and it doesn't 00:05:17.58000:05:17.590 take long to realize that everything is 00:05:19.29000:05:19.300 built with the utmost care and attention 00:05:21.06000:05:21.070 we saw everything being made from the 00:05:23.31000:05:23.320 waterways for the heat exchangers to the 00:05:25.59000:05:25.600 wiring systems to the content straps all 00:05:28.14000:05:28.150 the guys and girls who work there seemed 00:05:29.85000:05:29.860 really happy there's definitely not a 00:05:31.47000:05:31.480 real community vibe going on this is a 00:05:33.60000:05:33.610 big Factory in the whole area and loads 00:05:36.27000:05:36.280 of people work there know each other 00:05:37.95000:05:37.960 outside of work as well but as much as I 00:05:40.32000:05:40.330 might try I couldn't avoid any longer 00:05:42.42000:05:42.430 the building of my own logic and Tom 00:05:44.94000:05:44.950 took me over to the final assembly area 00:05:46.98000:05:46.990 to learn how we're doing the whole thing 00:05:48.75000:05:48.760 in yeah it's not finished 00:05:50.25000:05:50.260 yeah so they'll pick the chassis up and 00:05:51.90000:05:51.910 they've all got their individual cards 00:05:53.55000:05:53.560 yeah go into first station 00:06:00.96000:06:00.97000:06:07.53000:06:07.540 you're mixing 00:06:08.65000:06:08.66000:06:13.85000:06:13.860 it was great watching Tom expertly put 00:06:16.19000:06:16.200 the border together but also it was 00:06:17.66000:06:17.670 brilliant to watch the quality control 00:06:19.37000:06:19.380 aspect that goes behind this process for 00:06:22.07000:06:22.080 instance the screwdriver is using here 00:06:23.93000:06:23.940 is linked to the computer screen next to 00:06:26.03000:06:26.040 him that will tell him when the screw is 00:06:27.83000:06:27.840 on is properly tightened up and the same 00:06:29.81000:06:29.820 goes for tightening up nuts or bolts on 00:06:31.91000:06:31.920 the boiler in a few minutes time I'd be 00:06:33.68000:06:33.690 doing this process myself and thankfully 00:06:35.66000:06:35.670 with the guidance of Tom once he 00:06:37.19000:06:37.200 finished doing his boiler he put it into 00:06:39.17000:06:39.180 a special test rig that simulates being 00:06:41.03000:06:41.040 on a fully working system while a robot 00:06:43.16000:06:43.170 and a myriad of lasers check to make 00:06:44.99000:06:45.000 sure that every component was on the 00:06:46.52000:06:46.530 broiler at this point guys I started 00:06:48.68000:06:48.690 sweating a bit 00:06:55.19000:06:55.200 the connections on Craigslist so the 00:06:57.68000:06:57.690 robots actually doing this in the same 00:06:59.06000:06:59.070 cycle Tom's doing the pressure test oh 00:07:01.10000:07:01.110 yeah oh my god guys the moment of truth 00:07:03.59000:07:03.600 it was now my turn and I was definitely 00:07:06.68000:07:06.690 breaking it 00:07:07.23000:07:07.24000:07:29.73000:07:29.740 honestly I'd not have been able to do 00:07:31.93000:07:31.940 this without the help of the guys over 00:07:33.12900:07:33.139 there I got the base put together in 00:07:35.17000:07:35.180 about half an hour I think and then 00:07:36.99900:07:37.009 wheeled the boiler into the test rig 00:07:38.83000:07:38.840 where we wait with bated breath to see 00:07:40.54000:07:40.550 if it would pass 00:07:42.81000:07:42.82000:07:49.74900:07:49.759 guys I thought doing a best man's speech 00:07:51.90900:07:51.919 or getting married or having my appendix 00:07:54.30900:07:54.319 out was gonna be stressful but looking 00:07:56.20000:07:56.210 at that screen waiting for the boiler to 00:07:58.23900:07:58.249 have all its scans done is possibly one 00:08:00.21900:08:00.229 of the most terrifying moments of my 00:08:01.89900:08:01.909 life 00:08:02.37900:08:02.389 imagine the Space Center at Houston at 00:08:04.32900:08:04.339 the end of Apollo 13 it was that tense 00:08:18.33000:08:18.340 i watch the ballers get packaged up and 00:08:23.12900:08:23.139 come down the conveyor belt said goodbye 00:08:24.92900:08:24.939 to the team of ideal boilers and then 00:08:27.14900:08:27.159 headed across the Humber to actually 00:08:28.80000:08:28.810 watch the boiler be installed installed 00:08:49.59000:08:49.600 by the do to CD plumbing in Grimsby so 00:08:53.40000:08:53.410 we're going to go into on-site now and 00:08:55.53000:08:55.540 watch them install it so we did have a 00:08:58.86000:08:58.870 bit of a chat about how funny is that I 00:09:00.48000:09:00.490 was filming him do this because I 00:09:01.92000:09:01.930 personally hate customers watching me 00:09:03.93000:09:03.940 work but Chris and his team are top old 00:09:09.90000:09:09.910 boys they're part of the accredited 00:09:11.88000:09:11.890 installer network which means the 00:09:13.71000:09:13.720 standard of their work is really high I 00:09:15.63000:09:15.640 film with him for about four or five 00:09:17.00900:09:17.019 hours and just had a wicked time talking 00:09:18.93000:09:18.940 about like plumbing stuff and the trade 00:09:21.12000:09:21.130 and everything like that seriously I 00:09:22.92000:09:22.930 can't thank Chris and his team enough 00:09:24.38900:09:24.399 for letting us film get those lines 00:09:27.78000:09:27.79000:09:33.23000:09:33.240 where do you go towards me 00:09:40.62000:09:40.63000:09:44.21000:09:44.220 don't worry guys did pop out and by 00:09:46.79900:09:46.809 everyone I had a coffee so that kept 00:09:48.80900:09:48.819 Chris happy he started making those 00:09:50.73000:09:50.740 sorts of noises you know I mean anyway I 00:09:52.86000:09:52.870 thought I'd wait until he finished 00:09:54.11900:09:54.129 installing the boiler to ask him why he 00:09:56.24900:09:56.259 fits loads of ideals so how many ideal 00:09:58.79900:09:58.809 borders do you fit in like roughly a 00:10:00.44900:10:00.459 month or a year what's the most amount 00:10:02.28000:10:02.290 of portage appear last year we did 78 00:10:04.31900:10:04.329 this is a fault this month Saturn this 00:10:06.32900:10:06.339 year so far so what do you think so many 00:10:07.92000:10:07.930 ideas I mean there's a lots of different 00:10:09.11900:10:09.129 boiler manufacturers out there that sort 00:10:10.71000:10:10.720 of thing 00:10:11.06900:10:11.079 what is the one that sways you to fit so 00:10:12.74900:10:12.759 many of these for your customer and 00:10:14.36000:10:14.370 reliability really whenever a very 00:10:17.06900:10:17.079 rarely have problems I should say and if 00:10:19.11000:10:19.120 we ever do they don't work really 00:10:20.61000:10:20.620 quickly an idea of never once not to 00:10:22.67900:10:22.689 anything back on warrant is really 00:10:24.86900:10:24.879 what's your favorite bit about 00:10:25.94900:10:25.959 installing him as well just really 00:10:27.72000:10:27.730 heating and just ideal affair easy yeah 00:10:30.32900:10:30.339 yes so we do often gas to fit over 00:10:33.82900:10:33.839 manufacturers which we do do but 00:10:35.61000:10:35.620 generally if I can try and push them to 00:10:38.28000:10:38.290 what the ideal it's me that generally 00:10:39.90000:10:39.910 goes back I do this everything so it 00:10:42.32900:10:42.339 makes our life easier and they're a lot 00:10:44.04000:10:44.050 easier to service of a manufacturer 00:10:45.66000:10:45.670 that's wrong from a plumbers perspective
