If I'm not mistaken, Apple's machine shops are almost fully automated. They bought an enormous number of CNC machines to make MacBooks, etc.



Of course noone solders SMD or mills device chassis manually, but top-level assembly is mostly manual labor.


That's not going to be done in the machine shops though, to GP's point.
