I didn't see a naked body, but I'd guess max. one hour including polishing of the visible surfaces (and that is on the upper end, because you put more than one body in the jigs).
Edit: The tact time per casing is somewhere around 30 seconds (assuming 24/7 operations). Which is absolutely doable, not just for apple but for everyone with a demand of 1 million units per year for the same part.
- Retric 4y agoI have read 10 hours per Mack book initially split across multiple machines, but I don’t know how accurate that was. Or if that was adjusted for scrap rate and downtime etc. Presumably they wanted to create rumors to improve peoples perception of quality. On the other hand it’s several fairly large complicated parts and their removing a lot of material from the blanks.
- hef19898 4y agoDifficult to tell without having the naked housing parts, or ideally the drawings. 10 hours is more in aerospace territory so, if it really is that, something seems a bit of. But you never know, some designers come up with the strangest ideas.
