Chapter 649 - Automated Assembly Equipment!

"Chief Song, this is a crawling robot specially developed by Huaxing Group for the assembly line, which can achieve accurate drilling. ”

Yang Jie explained to Song Xinyang.

"You developed this robot yourself?"

"Yes, there is no similar type of equipment abroad, and I forced the machine tool research institute to use their respective technologies to jointly develop these research and development institutions. ”

Yang Jie said with a smile.

"Amazing! How did you do it?"

After these aircraft enter the assembly table, they use coordinate measuring machines, laser trackers, lidars, laser scanners, microwave interferometers and other equipment to accurately fix the coordinates designed in the fuselage and simulation software, and the crawling robot automatically processes according to the set program, and now the accuracy of the robot punching is very high. ”

Yang Jie is simple to say, but just the crawling robot is electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and automatic control, which is not a simple thing, and the robot's system also needs to interact and coordinate with the digital simulation software system and the software and hardware of the measurement system, forming a fully closed-loop control system that coordinates the operation requires a large number of engineers to write a large number of program codes and constantly modify.

In order to develop these equipment, Huaxing Group has almost concentrated thousands of engineers to complete.

And the development of automatic riveting machine automatic riveting machine and CNC bracket two parts, automatic riveting machine is used to complete a series of riveting process, and CNC bracket mainly includes CNC frame, supporting plate, column and various accessories, etc., for the positioning and clamping of the workpiece, the two sets of systems to match each other in order to give full play to the advantages of automatic riveting technology.

Automatic riveting of large aircraft fuselage and wing panels, as well as double-curvature panels, requires a special fully automatic bracket system to achieve automatic positioning and leveling of the workpiece.

Song Xinyang also noticed that after the assembly of different sections is completed, they will be hoisted to the next section by a large crane, which is very fast.

And when each section is assembled, a movable robot arm is used, and these assembled parts are fixed on a special fixture, and the assembler can easily adjust the orientation, and the laser guided positioning system is used to complete the assembly of different parts, saving time and effort, and the accuracy of assembly is also very high.

Hearing the whining of the motors inside these robotic arms fills the production line with a sense of science fiction.

Song Xinyang looked at Yang Jie and asked, "This production line is equipped with so many new automation equipment, and the assembly staff needs a long time to train, right?"

"These technicians are all automation programming technicians trained within our Huaxing Group Company, and they can get started with these equipment in a short period of training. ”

Yang Jie said with a smile.

"Your talent pool is really sufficient!"

Song Xinyang said with emotion.

"Huaxing Group Company's Machine Tool Research Institute and Chenxi Machinery Factory and Zhongyuan Automobile Company will train a large number of CNC programming technicians every year, and now we have rarely recruited personnel from the society, basically recruiting personnel from domestic colleges and universities to train themselves, so the talent reserve in this area is relatively abundant. ”

"Well, you have so many talent reserves, and you can support the needs of the development of Huaxing Group, and you have done a very good job in this regard. ”

Song Xinyang continued: "I didn't expect you to reach this point in the field of robots, the progress is really amazing!"

"The Machine Tool Research Institute has entered the field of CNC machine tools from the technology of electric spindle, and it is easy for us to make robots with these foundations. ”

Yang Jie said.

The Machine Tool Research Institute now has thousands of personnel, more than 700 R&D personnel, hundreds of experts and professors, more than 500 doctoral students and masters, and more than 300 senior technicians.

If the Machine Tool Research Institute is a force, it is definitely the most elite special forces, specializing in the research and development of the most cutting-edge hardware and software technology, and developing small batches of special equipment.

It is also with this special force that Huaxing Group can basically build any special equipment it needs.

As a reborn person and a scientist, Yang Jie naturally has various advanced technical solutions for the improvement of these two assembly lines.

The boss put forward a technical plan, and the secretariat also had to carry out various coordination, and the project team spent more than a year to finally develop the various equipment needed.

These engineers from Fokker were still a little resistant to this matter at first, they thought that Fokker's original assembly line was very advanced, and more that the boss was tossing around, and raised a lot of objections.

However, at the end of last year, seeing that these equipment began to be sent to the assembly line for installation and commissioning, these engineers from the Netherlands saw that these equipment ran smoothly and greatly improved the efficiency of the production line, and had a sense of crisis, and began to enthusiastically begin to learn to operate these equipment, and actively put forward a lot of opinions and ideas for the improvement of equipment.

These engineers are experienced in assembly, but it is easy to fall into a rigid state of thinking, but Huaxing Group has formed a very free R & D atmosphere, as long as the R & D personnel have some whimsical ideas, as long as the company immediately begins to carry out research and development after passing the feasibility review, its instrument and equipment factory will develop the instruments and equipment required for the R & D project.

Huaxing Group is not listed, there is no shortage of money, and there is a very free research and development atmosphere, so Huaxing Group has a variety of technological inventions are also emerging, and these technical products are also serving the business needs of Huaxing Group itself.

These technical teams from Fokker Company have been surprised by their stronger technical strength than Huaxing Group for more than a year.

The eight-year-old group of companies has completely become a world-class high-tech enterprise, which shocked the personnel of Fokker and can only be explained by miracles.

Selder R&Fred, who was accompanying Yang Jie, saw that his boss was talking with the second head of Huaxia Kingdom at this time, and he was also quite happy that the sale of Xingfu Ke Company to Huaxing Group Company was an extremely correct choice.

At this time, Song Xinyang saw that Huaxia Fokker Company specially designed an elevator in order to assemble the cockpit equipment, and a large number of seats and other equipment were directly slid onto the plane through the elevator, and then the staff installed them in the cabin.

He then asked, "How long does it take for a Huaxia Fokker company plane to roll off the assembly line now?"

"This year we can assemble ten aircraft a month, and by the end of the year we can deliver sixty aircraft to customers, and we are building three production lines that will provide at least two hundred aircraft next year. ”

Yang Jie said.

Because the quotation of the Fokker F100 jet airliner produced by Huaxia Fokker Company is almost the same as the quotation of the same type of turboprop regional airliner, this quotation is very attractive, Fokker Company has obtained at least more than 300 orders from overseas, and there are close to 400 orders in China, and there are more than 800 orders in reserve, which is enough for Huaxia Fokker Company to produce for two or three years.

Next year, Huaxia Fokker will have a production capacity of more than 200 aircraft, and it will already be among the top regional airliner manufacturers in the world, and it will begin to compete with Bombardier Group and Embraer at home and abroad.

Next year's revenue of Huaxia Fokker Company will reach tens of billions of yuan in rent alone, and if other businesses such as after-sales maintenance are added, it will reach more than 20 billion yuan, and the aircraft leasing company established by Huaxia Fokker Company will take over the almost 100 old planes of Fokker Company before it for refurbishment.

Fokker used to think that the lease period of the planes sold by many airlines had expired, and many airlines stopped renewing their leases, and Huaxia Fokker would sell these old planes to airlines at a low price after taking over these old planes for refurbishment.

In fact, many airlines only have a lease period of more than 10 years, and the life of the aircraft is basically as long as more than 20 years, and these old aircraft will continue to serve after refurbishment, which is also a lot of income.
