Thanks for watching! Now, who wants to drive a combine??

Pretty cool that they let you film in the factory!!

In an age of "How It's Made" and "Inside The Factory" it still hits different when do a factory tour in person. The scale, noise, skilled people, moving parts, all running like clockwork. Doesn't matter the product - it always is impressive! 😎🤟

Every junior and senior high school student in the country should be required to visit a factory like this to learn to appreciate the hard working and dedicated workers we have in this country. Most will go to college and never understand what it means to do a hard days work , not just sitting at a desk and watching a computer screen.

Back in the early 70's I was a welder at OMC. We made swathers, Hammer mills, different sizes of Skid Steers. There was no robotics, we did all the welding. Amazing how much has changed.

These videos show us all but especially the younger generation what humans can achieve when we all work together in order to produce the food we all love to eat. A big thank you to the Welker family for taking us on tour, from the UK, we appreciate your time & efforts.

No matter what field of manufacturing... when you meet those who know what they are doing and why, they leave you with a very deep appreciation of their work. A great video guys - thanks much! Happy 2024!!!

As a millwright it’s always fun to read the comments on factory tours. Because I do all the maintenance during factory downtime.

I started working there when it was a Ford/New Holland plant. Your tour guide hired me.

Nick. Thank you for taking all of us along with you as you walked through the combine new con factory

I grew up in Charles City, IA. The town where Oliver and White Farm tractors were made. I toured many times and was always amazed at the level of pride the workers had.

Welder here, this video speaks to my heart. Excellent!!!

I’ve a feeling this video only scratched the surface of the coordination of tasks from start to finish that must take place to produce these machines. It’s mind boggling to imagine how it all comes together in, as you said, a tuned symphony. Simply amazing.

its awesome how they just let you guys film most of the plant. it shows honesty and clearly nothing to hide.

CaseIH and the Welkers. ‘Merica. As good as it gets. Great tour!

I worked in the farm equipment industry for 42 years as an engineer. I tried to visit the shop floor once a week to see 1.) if there were issues; 2.) could a design be tweaked to make the job better; etc. Technology changed tremendously in that from the punch and crunch to the lasers of today that allows for more flexibility in design. Unfortunately, many of the designers today do not take the time to see how their designs are actually executed on the shop floor to see if something can be done better. Thanks for tour!

Go Case I m from Idaho it's hard to say when I'll get a chance to see the factory again thanks for the tour I appreciate this kind of contents

I enjoyed the plant tour very much

Thank you for taking us along for the tour.

Very impressive factory!

What an awesome plant tour! It is truly amazing what all goes into the making of a combine! Thank You Welker Farms for taking us along!! God Bless!

I love plant tours.... thanks

when I was 14, I took the rotors to our new holland combine to that factory to be balanced. they were in the back of a ford ranger. they had me drive the ranger down the forklift isles to the balancer machine. the people there were laughing because they said they hadnt seen that before. then some guy in a suit from the office gave me a one man tour. it felt very special. wish the hollands were still made here too.

great video, my aunt actually works at that factory its crazy what they can get all done in a day

Scott wish I could have come with you. Reminds me of the factory tours I did in college.

Awesome tour. Thank you. 13 a day very impressive.

Enjoyed it a lot,thanks for taking us along.

My Dad and I were in Grand Island for Red Power Round Up in June. They were offering factory tours, but we were too late to get on the list. Thanks for the tour!

Good to know still make made in America. Great video guys.

OUT STANDING. THANKS FOR THE TOUR.

All I can say is that I really enjoyed watching how my favorite combine is made, thanks!

Absolutely awesome, thanks y'all.

That's awesome. You guys are First Class. Scotts comment to the gentleman in the cab at end said it all. "Thank Yiu for everything you do for us." That means a lot. We are all in this together. It takes everyone doing their part for the Globe to turn.

Thanks for taking this video it is interesting to watch how they make them.

Now that's a very impressive video of the combined factory in Grand Island Nebraska... I have had the pleasure of touring the steiger tractor factory in Fargo North years ago .....

Interesting tour! Neat to see the robotics/human working together. Your tour guide knew everything front to back. Thanks to CaseIH for supporting Welker's too!

Really enjoyed the tour. Not a farmer, but a farmer lover. Without this, I would never had a opportunity to see this. My day is better. Thanx.

Awesome tour guys!

That was certainly interesting. The paint jobs are even excellent. . . . One of my uncles used to wax his combine and his tractors. He also gave factory tours when he left farming and your father, Bob, had the same uncle show him around the factory in Saskatoon. I would have been in awe on the Case factory tour. Thank you for sharing your video.

You guys sure are fun to watch 😊

My hometown. I remember when they manufactured New Holland TRW70 and 75’s. Amazing facility. Great video.

I think you have a greater appreciation for the equipment you own or operate when you know the people who built it.

That was a great tour! I was buyer for a major mfg company and there is something about metal just fascinates me.

Spent my career in manufacturing. Fun to see how other shops do similar work to my experience.

Did this tour in 2019 , also the Racine Wisconsin tractor assembly plant, Fascinating assembly and engineering. Thanks for bringing up a great memory. 12,000 parts and they all work !

Thanks for a great video visiting the combine factory. It was super interesting visit to the factory. Amazing how these combines are made and put together. Believe you said a combine is made in a day. Wow. All the technology we saw was beyond words. Technology does so much to put these machines together. Wow. Sincerely appreciate the Welkers taking us along for this tour of the case IH factory. Just was amazing!!!!!! Thanks. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

Hope you enjoyed your day at the factory. We drive by it half a dozen times a year going from Lincoln to our favorite camping spot about 30 miles west of there.

We got 12 combines out of that factory , awesome 😊

Very Cool... I got to go through the IH plant in Moline when they were still built there. Back when the 2388's were being produced..

That was awesome I always wanted to see the case ih combine factory .... it is awesome u guys got to see it and share it with us viewers....

I've been a Toolmaker for 20+years I am always amazed by how efficient this plants are! Minimum Waste, and Hi Productivity! These Plants are amazing, how every single part gets to the correct place at precisely the right time!! 😮

Hey you guys. Just stopped a my Shelby’s Pilot station last night. Headed to Calgary.

Very interesting video, subscription deserved.

I just love these type of videos I love factory tours, especially at heavy machinery like a combine awesome happy New Year’s guys

Impressive, thanks for sharing!

I toured the New Holland plant years ago when the combine plant was in Lexington. It was really something then and more so now. Lots of new technology.

❤❤😂😂 thanks for taking everyone along for the tour you guys are so cool and the caseih factory was freaking awesome 👍🏻😎😎😎😎😎😎

Would have been funny if you had stuck a Welker Farms sticker on one of the combines.

Awsome video. Reminds me of my factory days at International Truck and Engine. Thanks for sharing. God bless. Stay safe and healthy.

With the advent of robots and cnc...I imagine the quality of these machines has vastly improved over the last couple of decades.

Great to see. I was waiting for you to say at the end “this is our new combine”

Really enjoyed seeing the factory, it's amazing to see the amount of work it took to design, build, and then start the factory line to build a *single* product.

The Welker again showed us something very impressive. Very much impressed by how you all present content. Thank you so much for sharing your lives. It’s a treat

Thanks for the great video always wanted to visit a manufacturing facility.

Those Ursviken presses was made in my home country Sweden😊👍🏼

I worked at Steiger tractor plant in Fargo North Dakota way back from 75 to early 80's nothing like what is produced now . Not even close to as complex as they are now . The when the series three came out , there was some nice improvements throughout the complete lineup of tractors. International were also being produced off the same production line as well . Not much changed over the years with them besides horse power increases amongst there different models. Some Steiger tractors were painted different colors for Ford's , Allis Chalmers , and very limited number of few other colors . I still remember the 1976 model and the Pink Panther I put there tiers on before they were driving out the door . Back than the first automatic transmission were also starting to be optional as well in the series III . I mostly worked in final assembly , but was able to work in many different areas to fill in for sick call in's , injuries , or people who went on short vacation . So was never to boring or monotonous place to work . Plus there were many friends to make fun of ! Most importantly is there were a very very small number of workers who didn't care about each other like family ! I remember that one thing that was always fun was to start a rumor or jokes at one end of the plant to see if it would make it to a close friend at the other end .

Fascinating tour. Thanks for taking us along.

Very interesting. It rattles the brain to consider, the number of parts hands on and fancy machines it takes to produce a combine. There's the investment cost of the farmer approaching half a million and then how many hours is it used per year verses hours sitting idle, No wonder small farms are disappearing and corporate farming is expanding. It's impossible to see where the break even point shows let alone a profit column exists. Oh, isn't there a weather factor too? You have my admiration and sympathy for being a Farmer today. You are indeed the worlds biggest gambler. But ya can't beat living and breathing the fresh air, right? Few experiences in life are more gratifying than come harvest time. Lived that life style for a few years and wouldn't change it for anything. Thanks for sharing.

Very interesting video, guys. Thanks for taking us along.

Thank you Case IH. Very impressive.

Fantastic! Great job with the questions and the tour guide was the best! Thanks for the exclent content! Cheers!

Never even thouht how big the motor alone would be and all the plumbing to go with it... Impressive process that goes into making it.

VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!! Thanks for the tour!!

That was very enjoyable to watch. Thanks for providing that content!

Great tour. Never saw a combine being put together.

That was super cool to see thank you welkers for sharing this with us

I'm so jealous i drive by that plant 6 times a week, and crazy u boys were 20min from my house I've been watching your channel for 3/4 yrs

Realy great way to spend the day watch that crew build a new combine.😍🤩👍👍

Thank you - I've always loved seeing how some of the machinery is made, and when it's farm equipment it always seems to hold a special interest for me.

Impressive facility. Thanks for sharing that with us.

I’m like leg arm as I enjoy the process of building the combine. The part manufacturing and assembly order. Amazing set up!!!

Thanks for taking us with you, that was fun.

Thanks for the great combine video love seeing how things are built.

What an absolutely brilliant video .

Thanks for showing us how real combines are made!

So awesome! Love the end as to how they get back to the building from the lot. Thank you for sharing!

Very cool guys! Grew up about 20 miles from the plant👍🏻

Thank you so much. I know yal had a blast but it was certainly awesome to watch too. An experience to be had. Yal keep farming and we’ll see u on the next one

I have a 8230 also, but never seen the factory. Pretty awesome. I have been through the Steiger factory though.

Always interesting to such a production, how complicated , the workers, the size of the plant, the organization….thx for the tour!

Glad to see you got in there, I remember you weren't allowed in the Magnum factory.

That was an awesome video!! A big Thank You.

All your videos are awesome and the editing and video ideas you come up with are great. Thanks again and keep them coming.

Very interesting video! I always love seeing how things are manufactured. Take care and God bless!

Before it was closed and torn down, I'd gotten to tour the IH plant in East Moline, IL. Built combines, cotton pickers, some headers and planters. Got a personal tour, by a family member, and also when they did an open house, for the general public.
