Re: Fabrication d'une lampe triode
That was fascinating! I would not have the patience to do that. You can see how much work and time it takes to simply do a single tube. Would like to see the same in a modern factory that mass produces these. Very good watch with the morning cup of coffee.

Re: Fabrication d'une lampe triode
I'm sure we've all seen the old Mullard Blackburn Works Ltd. film on YouTube by now.

But I can't seem to find any videos of a modern valve/tube manufacturing plant - Which is interesting/odd.
I've seen this episode of "How it's made" on TV before re: KR Audio - But where are the videos of the guitar amp valve/tube factories?

I have not seen any. Probably because of all the kids working in the factory in China...

Agreed - Mind you, I'm a little surprised Mike Matthews hasn't made a video for his ExpoPUL factory in Saratov.surfnorthwest wrote:I have not seen any. Probably because of all the kids working in the factory in China...
I did find this EI Niš factory tour...
