Modern manufacturing.
Lots of automation. 17 people make 3,000 boards a day. Impressive.
And I bet there is no issue with the staff talking while they work (see below).

Compare to iPhone and iPad manufacture...

"You might be surprised to learn that the iPad and iPhone are mostly assembled by hand, not by a robotic arm and sophisticated assembly system. It takes your iPhone 141 steps to get from start to finish. The iPad takes 5 days to be assembled by 325 hands."
The above from a Nightline special when they toured a FoxConn plant

Each step is some very simple task that a worker does thousands of times per shift
AND
no talking is permitted.
12 hour shifts with two one hour meal breaks.
