Lego Information
LEGO brick are made out of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene)
The material is heated to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (232 C), then injected into a mold which is kept at 85 degrees. The pressure used to mold the bricks varies from 24 to 150 tons. The molds are kept within one degree of the 85 degree specification. ABS absorbs moisture, so the entire molding hall is kept at 50% humidity. The allowable tolerance for a brick is two-hundredths of a millimeter, or about eight ten-thousands of an inch.
6 eight-stud bricks can be arranged 915,103,765 different ways.
Lego factories produce 15,000,000,000 pieces a year. 1,700,000 an hour. Or 28,500 a minute.
Lego produces makes 306,000,000 rubber tires a year, making them the world's No.1 tire manufacturer.
4,000,000,000 Mini Figures have been produced.
