Boeing's $250 Million 787 Manufacturing Secret Revealed

Boeing's $250 Million 787 Manufacturing Secret Revealed

Welcome to the Boeing Everett Factory – the birthplace of the 787 Dreamliner.

In this documentary, we take you deep inside the world’s largest building to reveal the incredible engineering behind the Boeing 787. Unlike any aircraft before it, the Dreamliner ditched aluminum for carbon fiber, revolutionizing aircraft manufacturing.

From the winding of the composite fuselage barrels in Italy and Japan to the final assembly in Washington, witness the global logistics and precision mechanics required to build a modern airliner. We breakdown the autoclaves, the robotic painters, and the massive Rolls-Royce engines that power this machine.

In this video, you will see:
The Carbon Revolution: How robots weave the fuselage from black carbon tape.
The Mega Autoclaves: Baking the plane in giant pressure cookers.
Global Logistics: How the Dreamlifter transports massive parts.
Final Assembly: Joining the wings, installing the interiors, and attaching the engines.
First Flight: The rigorous testing required before delivery.
