The Gigapress is Tesla 's secret weapon for electric vehicle manufacturing, superiority.

Casting has been a staple in automotive manufacturing throughout the entire history of the industry.

The casting process is used to form critical components like the engine block and the transmission casings, but casting has never been implemented for a large structural section of the vehicle frame.

The largest amount of clamping force from a traditional casting machine is 4000 metric tons of pressure.

Tesla 's Gigapress will be making its way to the Gigafactory in Austin , TX , where it will cast the rear underbody frame for the Cybertruck .

This allowed Tesla to cast the entire front and rear sections of their Model Y frame.

Tesla 's cash conversion cycle for 20/21 was negative 15 days .

This means that inventory is sold before you even need to pay for it.

By comparison, Toyota had a conversion cycle in 2021 of 31 days and a competitor like Volkswagen was back at 74 days .

Tesla do things differently and they profit massively. That's probably not an accident.
