Many quite rightly consider Ilona Mask to be more of an adventurer than a talented entrepreneur, but so far fortune is on his side, and investors' money flows the river, allowing to achieve more and more ambitious goals.
Until recently, as the source explains, in mechanical engineering it was decided to debug the technology of assembling complex products with the help of simplified technological equipment, which, after eliminating the "weak spots" in the process technology, was replaced with more expensive equipment used already in batch production. The company Tesla in preparation for the production of an electric vehicle Model 3 wishes to pass the stage of debugging technology using the "rough" equipment. It is ready to eliminate problems immediately with the use of serial equipment, and already actively orders it to profile producers.
Of course, in part this behavior Tesla is due to the shortened preparation time. Again, , the company has not quite a pleasant experience of using classical technology in preparation for the release of Tesla Model X. Then it was not possible to draw conclusions and take measures based on the results of using the "rough" rigging Tesla, and the problems were solved by others using "Clean" snap.
Secondly, Tesla counts on the ability of specialized computer simulators to identify many weak points of the assembly technology even before the use of serial equipment. Finally, it is so pleased with the quality of the pre-production prototype Tesla Model 3, which is convinced that there will be fewer problems with this product on the assembly line than with its predecessors.
By the way, the resource Electrek informs that Tesla softens the requirements for the centers of body repair, wishing to pass the official certification of this automaker. Previously, employees of such centers had to undergo training in California, and to work with the bodies of electric vehicles Tesla was necessary to purchase new equipment. Now Tesla makes an allowance, at least in terms of training specialists: it can be remote, through online courses. Obviously, the infrastructure is preparing for the emergence of a large number of electric vehicles Tesla Model 3 on the roads of the planet.
