Until the battery packs can be built by robots or robotic assembly machines. Which cannot be too far away for that kind of volume.

- zeckalpha 13y agoWho will maintain/engineer/program/design the robots? It's not robots all the way down is it?
- toomuchtodo 13y agoNot yet, but eventually it will be. The battery pack cases could be SLS assembled (laser sintered) to exacting specifications. Pack disassembly could be automated. Not quite sure on raw material->cell construction though. I'll have to research that process and see if FANUC robotics has anything that would fit the bill for that sort of work
- zeckalpha 13y agoSomeone developed that technique.
- msandford 13y agoIt's fairly unlikely that it'll ever be robots all the way down. If it's not instrumented it can't be measured by automated systems and you can't instrument everything. Management is unlikely to be replaced by robots in the short and mid term.
