JCB would never have a manufacturing facility with such old technology and primitive manufacturing processes as well as the scant regard for the employee's safety and health.
Maybe the title of the video is pure irony . But these people need this part for whatever reason and they are able to build it. It feeds their needs and it is absolutely great to see the manufacturing process. Everyone in our part of the world is on the comfortable side to buy it online or at a parts dealership and has not to build it under these conditions. So everyone who is critical keep calm, the brand is jic not jcb👍😎🙋🏻♂️ And, by the way, well done guys. Don‘ t give up and keep on building stuff✌️👍🇩🇪
I have worked in a Caterpillar factory fabricating heavy structural booms and arms of a Front end loader, excavators etc. Every piece is cut and bent to shape in a machine and not hammered and bent to fit. Using Clamps to bend, tack weld leaves residual stresses in the assembly and not a good idea. I don't think JCB buys assemblies from these shops as it wouldn't fit their quality standards. These are shops that build perhaps for the after market. Still amazing craftsmanship with just the press brake, cutting torch, card board templates and common sense. Must appreciate the extra ordinary skills these guys have and exhibit in the video.
