Chapter 666: Fold it in half and make it whole
Professor Ali Khan's shock is not a fake.
He knows that metal matrix composites are simply strengthened with special fibers, but generally speaking, this special fiber is powerful and can make metal materials improve by leaps and bounds.
For example, borated fibers, graphite fibers, carbon fibers, silicon carbide fibers, and so on.
However, among the many fibers, there are few people who use glass fiber to strengthen metal materials, but they have not tried, the key is that the material characteristics of glass fiber are too general, even if it is strengthened into the metal, the improvement effect on the metal is not large, and it is not even as good as the alloy materials with good metallurgical processes.
Because of this, among the many fiber reinforced materials, glass fiber was quickly phased out, so that today it can only be combined with epoxy resin to make glass fiber reinforced plastic, which is used in non-load-bearing structures inside aircraft.
However, Tengfei Group not only combines glass fiber with aluminum to create a new superhybrid composite material that is no less than aluminum-lithium alloy, but also light in weight and lower in cost.
What this means, as Professor Ali Khan, who has worked in the aviation giant for half his life, simply knows too well.
But because of this, Professor Ali Khan is very puzzled, even if the cost of glass fiber is low, but if you want to integrate fiber materials into aluminum, the process should be similar to that of other reinforced fibers into metal, and the complexity of the process is almost the same, the only difference is that glass fiber is different from other reinforced fibers, so the length of process processing is very different.
However, these are completely negligible in terms of process costs.
Not to mention anything else, the most critical vacuum pressure furnace in the preparation of this kind of material, the cost of a single operation is tens of thousands of dollars, and the slightly larger one is even more than 100,000 dollars.
That's it, in order to ensure the quality of the material, the quantity of a preparation should not be too much, so shared, not to mention the value of the material itself, the process cost alone is high and scary, and this is just a vacuum pressure furnace, the whole fiber reinforced material process is not only such a kind of equipment, all kinds of things add up to more than ten.
It is precisely because of the complexity of the process preparation process that although the fiber-reinforced composite materials can be industrially produced, the output has never been up, and the cost cannot be diluted if the output is not increased, and the price will naturally be expensive if the cost cannot be amortized.
Therefore, the internal logic of the expensive composite material is not a gimmick, but the complexity of its process, the inevitable result of low production capacity, if not, the composite material is so good, why the major giants dare not let go of it? No way, too expensive.
How did the super-hybrid composite materials of the Ascendas Group achieve the cost of ordinary aluminum alloys?
If other people didn't turn this bull's horn, like Rahman and Zarif, they didn't understand the material or anything, so they didn't care how to make it.
As long as the cost is cost-effective and the performance is not bad, that's a good thing.
Anyway, they came to inspect the situation of the plane, and they didn't come to learn how to build an airplane, why did they think so much?
But Professor Ali Khan is different, he resigned from an aviation giant like Boeing and returned to Pakistan because he had the ambition to help Pakistan develop its aviation industry, so when he encountered a problem that he did not understand, he wanted to get to the bottom of it.
So after being surprised, Professor Ali Khan said euphemistically to Zhuang Jianye and Lin Guanghua: "Mr. Zhuang, Mr. Lin, I am very curious about the preparation of your superhybrid composite materials, and I don't know ......."
As a result, before Professor Ali Khan finished speaking, Zhuang Jianye waved his hand and smiled nonchalantly: "I want to see the production of this material, other materials may be a little troublesome, but the super-hybrid composite material is no problem, and the No. 7 workshop next to it is dedicated to the production of this material." ”
"Mr. Zhuang, what you said is true?" Professor Ali Khan couldn't believe his ears, and his eyes were as wide as bull's eyes, looking at Zhuang Jianye incredulously.
It is important to know that the production process of materials is an extremely important thing in any country, although it does not reach the level of complete secrecy, but it is not easy to show to outsiders under normal circumstances.
Professor Ali Khan knows this very well, otherwise he would not be able to use the word "curiosity" to test it, which Cheng thought that Zhuang Jianye was so generous, he didn't even hesitate, and directly agreed.
Professor Ali Khan couldn't be surprised.
Zhuang Jianye looked at Professor Ali Khan, who seemed to have won the 5 million lottery jackpot, and said with a smile: "Other people don't have this treatment, but you are guests from Pakistan, and we are brothers with you."
There is an old Chinese saying that a family does not speak two words, since it is a brother, then it is necessary to stick a knife in both ribs, otherwise what is it called a brother? Don't say that you want to see it, but if you want to take it back, our Tengfei Group will be fully packed and packed, free shipping and delivery, what is hidden and tucked? If you want to see it, let's see, you old iron ...... Bah...... Ladies and gentlemen, workshop 7 ......"
Zhuang Jianye said that he was full of pride, and if the Pakistani military delegation moved the entire Xiping factory back at the next moment, his brows would not wrinkle, brother, if you don't have this bit of courage, you still call it a brother?
The folds on Professor Ali Khan's face trembled directly, and he said that the friendship between China and Pakistan lasts forever, and the Chinese are really the most reliable friends of Pakistanis.
Rahman and Zarif also echoed excitedly, but compared to Professor Ali Khan's simple gratitude, these two thoughts are much more complicated, but they are also relieved, I thought that Zhuang Jianye was a ghost, but I didn't expect that he was also a generous lord, and he began to be poor and generous instead of some high hats.
But that's fine, if something is taken by them in the future, it's just a matter of it, they're all brothers!
Only the corners of Lin Guanghua's mouth twitched twice, and his heart was finished, these Pakistanis were fooled and lame by Lao Zhuang, and the family didn't speak two words, and there were brothers behind them to settle accounts.
What is a brother is to stick a knife in both ribs, but these Pakistani iron Hanhan people don't know that the object of the knife is particular, with Lao Zhuang's urine nature, inserting others is called a hand to catch!
Sure enough, when everyone came to the No. 7 workshop, the members of the Pakistani military delegation, including Professor Ali Khan, were shocked by a complete set of super-mixed material production equipment in front of them and couldn't speak, so they heard Zhuang Jianye wave his hand towards those equipment, and said in high spirits: "We spent 220 million US dollars on the construction of this set of super-hybrid composite material production equipment, if you want it, I won't say anything, make a discount, make up a whole, and take all the 100 million US dollars!"
