Raw materials, there are.

Technology, too.

Robot elves, too.

You only need to set the technical parameters, and you can produce it at any time.

However, Wang Buan was not in a hurry.

In fact, there is really no rush in this matter.

Just look at the docks of the Northern Shipbuilding Heavy Industry.

All their docks, already crammed with all sorts of warships, are simply not empty.

The Kwafu-class battleship, for sure, is not a major development. It's a bit like image engineering, with a verification nature. Since it is not very practical, there is no need to rush.

Of course, none of this is the most important thing.

Importantly, he wants to be lazy for a while.

If the powertrain problem is solved immediately, there may be other projects.

How bold man is, how productive the earth is.

Who knows what other mind-blowing ideas will be?

The Army Rabbit is a project, the Navy Rabbit is a project, and maybe the Air Force Rabbit will have it sometime.

When the time comes, he will rotate all day long, and he will not have to do his own thing.

The most important thing is that I don't have the opportunity to spend all my time drinking.

It doesn't feel like there's time to spend money.

Good lives are wasted.

For many days in the aftermath, Wang Buan was wandering around the dock.

The main purpose is to solve some temporary problems. For example, the welding of ultra-thick steel plates. This is a worldwide technical problem.

Welding is a basic technology in the manufacturing industry. There are various types. The degree of professionalism of the welders is extremely high.

The current welding thickness cannot exceed 100 mm. That's 10 centimeters.

However, there are some parts that are not more than 100 mm thick.

What to do?

There is no other way to do it.

Multi-riveting steaming, in which riveting, is riveting.

Steel plates with a thickness of more than 100 mm are joined with long rivets. Relatively intact large steel plates are formed.

However, the strength of riveting is not as good as that of welding.

Especially for the use of large areas, the welding is more tough and smoother.

Say, for example, the deck of an aircraft carrier.

Say, the decks of all warships.

The surface of the welded steel plate is almost completely flat. There are no bulges.

However, riveting also has its own advantages over welding. It is easy to disassemble and easy to replace wearing parts. If a part is broken, it should be removed and replaced.

In the case of welding, it is necessary to cut out a regularly shaped area and re-weld it.

Which method is better to adopt must be decided according to the actual situation.

The problem now is that some key parts need to be welded.

However, its steel plate thickness is more than 100 mm.

"Chief Engineer Wang, do you have a way to solve it?"

"Yes. ”

Wang Buan was also polite.

When it's time to express himself, he will never back down.

Anyway, you don't need to do it yourself.

What's the solution?

Liquid metal is used directly.

When it's hot, it's liquid. But at low temperatures, it's solid.

The liquid metal is poured into the middle of the two steel plates, and when it cools down, the two steel plates can be perfectly connected.

Its connection strength is also very high. Liquid metal is metal in itself!

As a type of alloy, its current grade is also grade four.

In other words, it can withstand a high temperature of 15,000 degrees and a weight of 15,000 tons. There is also 1500 tons of centrifugal force.

Such a powerful data is enough no matter what steel plate is used to connect.

In fact, for welding, there is clearly no need for such high temperatures. Level 2 is sufficient. Able to withstand 3600 degrees Celsius.

If it's too high, it's actually a waste.

If there was really a high temperature of 3600 degrees, ordinary steel would have melted long ago.

In order to save costs, most of the warships, most of the parts, are made of ordinary steel. And not special alloys.

The use of liquid metal requires special machines.

It needs to be heated inside the machine to a sufficient temperature and then sprayed out.

Only Wang Bu'an can produce such a machine.

He immediately produced one in Ben Thanh Industrial Park for verification.

The machine was quickly transported to the dockyard.

Try it out on the spot.

Good guys, almost the same as airbrushes.

All you need to do is spew out the liquid metal and connect the two ends of the steel plate.

After the liquid metal cooled rapidly, the two steel plates seemed to be natural, and there were no traces of connection visible to the naked eye.

The welders who witnessed the entire welding process all gave a thumbs up.

They are all senior welders.

Among them, there are at least ten or more grade 8 welders.

In Huaxia, the eighth-level welder is already the top skilled worker. Every eighth-level welder is a treasure among treasures.

(Now the official term is Senior Technician.) But insiders still like to call it an eighth-level worker. ）

What kind of welding has not been seen for an eighth-level welder?

Thick steel plates, that's what they welded.

But that's what liquid metal does...... It's not the right way!

It feels like all the welders are going to be laid off!

You can weld with just one pour, but what do you need a welder to do?

In other words, is it really strong enough? If it is pulled strongly, will it be torn off?

In the face of skepticism, experimentation is the best means of persuasion.

Field trials.

Two steel plates are welded with liquid metal.

Pull the two steel plates with the machine until the steel plates break.

If the steel plate is not broken, but the liquid metal weld is broken. Indicates that the strength of the liquid metal is not enough.

If the steel plate is broken, it means that the strength of the weld is too hard.

The thickness of both steel plates is 200 mm.

This is the steel plate of the watertight compartment of the 10,000-ton destroyer. The intensity is very high.

Its main role is to prevent torpedo bombardment. The destructive power of torpedoes is very high. The strength of the dragon tendon steel plate is not enough, and the consequences are unimaginable.

500 tons ......

1000 tons ......

Boom!

The steel plate broke.

It's the steel plate that's broken. It's not that the weld is broken.

Everyone was shocked.

What an unexpected result.

Is the welding of liquid metal so tough, and it is stronger than a 200 mm steel plate?

"What an amazing technique!"

"yes!

Everyone whispered in whispers. They all looked at Wang Bu'an with strange eyes.

Wang Buan is indeed too young. Too young. It looks like a student. I don't know what Pang Xihua is doing with him all day long. It feels like a little henchman.

Now, they finally get it. It turns out that this young man is also engaged in technology. Moreover, the technology is still very good.

To be able to develop such a brilliant liquid metal, there is no one else but him.

"You get the approval of others. ”

"You gain 1,200,000 Faith. ”

Another wave of harvest.

Individuals don't contribute much faith.

However, the number of individuals is very large. There were more than 100 people. Added up, there are hundreds of millions of faith points.

Sure enough, the number of people in itself is a huge dividend. The more the merrier.

Without population, nothing can be talked about.

"Transformers' technology is dragging!"

"No wonder there are 9999 levels. ”

Wang Buan also sighed secretly.

The universe doesn't know how big it is. The planet Cybertron doesn't know where it is.

Not in the galaxy anyway.

The Nameks aren't in the galaxy either.

Kryptonians are also not in the galaxy.

Earthlings feel that the Milky Way is already too big to describe.

However, in the eyes of the Transformers, the Milky Way may also be an inconspicuous existence. I don't care about it at all. Otherwise, they would have migrated to the galaxy long ago, right?

Perhaps, the position of the Milky Way in the universe is similar to the position of the Earth in the Milky Way?

Continue the trial.

Trial and error.

Apply force from different angles.

Simulated shelling of torpedoes. Simulates the bombardment of aerial bombs. Simulates ammunition detonation. Simulates a skyrocketing fire.

The results were without exception.

All of them were damaged steel plates. There is no damage to the weld.

After thirty trials, all the onlookers were convinced. These liquid metals are really powerful.

After each test, Wang Buan has to gain a large wave of faith points.

The more you experiment, the more faith you gain.

Before and after, there were as many as 300 million.

Pang Xihua immediately asked his superiors to use liquid metal for all welding.

The welders, who were originally a little resistant, quickly got started.

No way, it's too efficient.

What used to take eight hours to do now can be done in an hour.

Fast and good, who doesn't like it?

The welders can also breathe a sigh of relief.

Originally, their work was very heavy! All the dockyards were crammed with warships, and welding was the main task, and they couldn't be busy at all.

Due to space constraints, most of the welding must rely on manual work.

Machine welding can only replace a small part.

The tasks assigned to each welder are very heavy.

Now, the efficiency of welding has been directly improved several times, and the quality is more outstanding, who doesn't want to?

Pang Xihua couldn't help but be eager to try, and asked Wang Bu'an to improve other processes by the way.

The entire Northern Shipbuilding Heavy Industry is in a hurry, and the task is very heavy.

If you can increase production efficiency by 10%, that's a huge credit.

"You're looking too highly of me. Wang Bu'an was modest.

"Nope. It's true. It's true. Pang Xihua said expectantly.

Wang Buan shook his head.

There is no applicable technology for the time being.

There are too many aspects involved in intelligent manipulators and the like, and they can't be taken out for the time being.

It's best to deploy on a blank slate. Otherwise, there are too many things that need to be changed. I can't get it all in place for a month or two.

Wang Bu'an didn't want to be locked up in the Northern Shipbuilding Industry for a few months.

This is a semi-military exclusion zone.

Even communication is severely restricted.

No one is allowed to carry mobile phones. The mobile phone signal is also ruthlessly blocked.

Pang Xihua had no choice but to give up.

He believed that Wang Buan was in ambush.

This little guy is reluctant to take out everything in his stomach and use it.

It seems that you have to give him a little sweetness.

So, what exactly is the sweetness?

Money?

Female?

These are rotten things.

It will only make Wang Bu'an more and more degenerate. Absolutely not.

Now Wang Bu'an, it is not easy to improve his ideological consciousness a little, if he is addicted to wine again, he will definitely be beaten back to his original form.

"Mr. Pang, Chief Engineer Wang, Professor Sheng, and Academician Meng are here. Suddenly, someone came to report.

"He's coming? Pang Xihua said reflexively.

Wang Buan's eyes sank slightly.

Sheng Huainan is here?

What did he come to do?

Today is still the fifth watch. Ask for a little referral vote.
