IDRA Group Confirms It Has Supplied Huge Casting Machine For The Tesla Model Y
The Italian company will supply Tesla with a 5,500-ton press, suggestively called Giga Press.

Half a dozen carmakers are adopting giga casting after Tesla to reduce costs and simplify manufacturing.
In a recent technical briefing session, Toyota announced a raft of new technologies as it catches up to other carmakers in electric vehicle expansion plans. One of them is giga casting, wherein a car body is constructed from two or three main components, simplifying the manufacturing process and reducing costs.
Tesla was the first to widely use the giga press, and multiple carmakers have attempted to emulate the approach. Geely uses the megacasting technique for the Zeekr 009 MPV and General Motors is reportedly using it for its upcoming flagship EV, the Cadillac Celestiq. Volvo and Hyundai have similar plans as well.
The giga press is a die-casting machine used to stamp aluminum sheets into large parts of a car’s body. Tesla is believed to have first used it on the Model Y, reportedly replacing assemblies consisting of 70 parts, with just two to three huge castings.
The house-sized machines have a clamping force of 55,000 to 61,000 kilonewtons (5,600 to 6,200 tons of force), although it may vary depending on configuration and make, as Tesla appears to be diversifying its giga press suppliers, and not rely solely on Italy’s IDRA. Switzerland’s Bühler and China’s LK Group are other big players in the space.
Giga casting benefits are multifold. The technology allowed Tesla to reduce Model Y manufacturing costs by 40 percent, as per Autoblog. For the Model 3, Tesla removed 600 robots from the assembly, as the giga press simplified production significantly. Meanwhile, Toyota has said the technology will reduce processes and plant investment by half.
Another reason for the wider adoption of technology is the potential weight savings. EV batteries are heavy, and manufacturers look to compensate for the additional weight elsewhere. Giga press presumably reduces carbon emissions as well by eliminating dozens of individual parts.

Although there are a few pitfalls to the technology. In case of accidents, replacing huge parts could cost a lot more than replacing smaller components. Moreover, it could be a painstaking task for legacy automakers with established manufacturing processes to incorporate giga casting.
Even though body manufacturing is highly automated nowadays, the practice can also impact businesses supplying smaller components, according to Automotive News Europe.

So I created ...that happened.....after graduating HIGH SCHOOL..
my 18th birthday when I envisioned RockLaHoma concert in the
UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA
OWEN FIELD
AFTER IN 1977 , graduating high school
There used to be a fair grounds raceway and where they had a concert..
Oklahoma Super Jam
.. where for 6.00 a ticket. I carried a 3 gallons plastic red gas can full of beer... into my first concert..
at the age of 18 there where 8,000 people.. and I did the math and I wanted to put on a concert.
I envisioned putting on a CONCERT in the largest stadium in my area.
OWEN FIELD
everyone said it was impossible but after a year with determination... on November 8,1978 I received a letter from the board of regents from the University authorizing me to proceed with my concert production in OWEN FIELD
