Mega Manufacturing: Custom-made Volvo Trucks in Belgium | 4K Engineering Documentary
An enormous output and yet, every-truck custom-made: this is Volvo Trucks in Belgium.
Trucks: Kings of the road with enormous power. Their manufacture demands a good eye, absolute precision and above all: perfect logistics. One of the world's largest truck factories is located in Belgium, close to the romantic town of Ghent. It's the ideal location, close to thousands of customers across Western Europe. This is where Volvo produces its bestseller: the all-time all-rounder "FH" - one of the most popular trucks in Europe with the most powerful engines in the industry! Approximately two hundred trucks each day! Each one unique: every truck leaving this factory is different: Mega Manufacturing individually tailored to customer requirements in a feat of logistical perfection. Timed to the minute. Around one thousand five hundred individual parts are installed by the workers in two hundred and ten operations over eight hours from the simple unadorned chassis - to a state of the art truck.
This Mega Manufacturing takes huge amounts of energy. But suprisingly without CO2 emissions. Volvo Trucks in Belgium was the first carbon-neutral car factory in the world. As early as 2009.
Green energy, perfect logistics, a gigantic, fully automated warehouse, modern robots: the factory is still high-tech. But nothing works here without well-trained people. Volvo Trucks calls themself a „people factory“. At the moment they are testing how to support their highly-trained workforces with new high-tech equipment: exoskeletons and virtual reality glasses allow workers and computers to become one! It could become the truck factory of the future!

Awesome video. As a truck driver in the USA most of the trucks I’ve drove are Volvo’s made in the USA but they use the Volvo engine from Sweden. Volvo ships the block from Sweden but the rest of the engine parts are made in the USA. And the I-Shift transmission is awesome with the shifter mounted on the drivers right side of the seat I can steer with my left arm and operate the shifter in auto mode or manual mode which is vary important. Their are times I need to downshift the up shift at the vary right spot in the road so to optimize truck performance. One point in particular is the turn on I-5 north bound in tumwater Washington and Olympia Washington going around the state capital in that a series of turns I need to slow down and then at the right moment downshift as the road doglegs to the left and goes uphill if you don’t you loose momentum and speed but if done right you go up the hill at highway speeds, you can’t do that in any other truck. Also with the I-Shift transmission and traction control in snow and ice the truck is virtually unstoppable I know I’ve done it and I have pictures to prove it. I’m now retired but I maintain my CDL people call me and I ask if the have Volvo’s with I-Shifts transmissions if not I don’t talk with them. Also I love the 4 stage Jake brake on the Volvo motor. Another aspect of the I-Shift transmission is the truck will automatically downshift going at highway speeds down any grade, you can’t do that with any other truck, it will get you killed. The only thing I wish I had was that 750 hp motor in my rigs I would of blown the doors off every Peterbilt on the road it would’ve been great. Peterbilt drivers hate to get passed by Volvo’s it pisses them off big time😀😀😀😀

I know I'm a bit late. However you must confuse cylinder block with cylinder head, the heads are only made in Sweden and only one factory alone. I know this because I work at the engine plant, and specfically the CH13 Liter machining line and we are the only supplier of heads in the entire Volvo Trucks Group Global.
