1388 01:43:40,547 --> 01:43:41,840 Yes. These are all automatic. 1389 01:43:41,924 --> 01:43:43,884 And you're replacing the rest with mechanical arms too? 1390 01:43:43,967 --> 01:43:46,595 Yes. I will replace the ones on side-window tempering. 1391 01:43:48,222 --> 01:43:49,556 This one is being tested now. 1392 01:43:49,640 --> 01:43:52,309 We're hoping to cancel four workers in July or August. 1393 01:43:53,101 --> 01:43:54,978 I'll change that into machine work. 1394 01:43:55,395 --> 01:43:57,522 We can't get the work done now. They are too slow.
