Chapter 185: Machine tool modification
In Changsha, after more than a month of rush construction, a huge steel structure factory building has risen from the ground with a grand scale. The factory with a width of 150 meters, a length of 500 meters and a height of 50 meters has appeared for the first time in Changsha. It attracted many local farmers to come and see the excitement. The factory is located on the side of Zhongqing Road, which is a small hill. Changsheng Construction Engineering used excavators and muck trucks to level the flat land of a factory building first. Of course, it is on the basis of using the existing flat land, otherwise the amount of work will be large, and they will definitely not be able to do it in more than a month.
Although Zhongqing Road is only a gravel road, it is already one of the few roads in the north of Changsha, so the new factory building is built here. The other main road, Furong Road, which crosses in the north of the city, has relatively flat terrain and is reserved for the construction of large factories in the future, such as special steel plants, chemical plants, automobile factories and so on. Now the cement plant and the brick factory of the first phase of the project have been built, but the power plant has not yet been completed, and there is still a major one: gas turbine generator sets. So it's still an empty factory. But the cement plant and the brick factory can also be started, because Changsha's local power grid can also supply electricity, but the power supply is definitely insufficient, which is a common problem in all places in the 90s: lack of electricity. So this is the reason why Shen Danqing wants to build his own power plant. Light industry is okay, if there is a power outage, the loss is not big, and heavy industry must not be without power outages, and a shutdown is a huge loss. For example, when a furnace of special steel is smelted, but there is a sudden power outage, not only the furnace steel is wasted, but even the furnace is wasted. Think about how big this loss is.
Therefore, Changsheng Construction Engineering used the materials of its own cement factory and brick factory to rush to help the Mechanical Branch Research Institute build this plant. For a huge factory like this, which is 50 meters high, the foundation must be very strong, and it will definitely be difficult for Changsha's local cement to meet the standard. Only the foreign advanced cement production equipment purchased by Changsheng Construction Engineering can produce high-quality cement that is qualified.
This is the place where the Institute of Mechanical Technology temporarily houses the heavy machine tools bought from Beijing No. 1 Machine and Jinan Heavy Machinery. At this time, a technical team was discussing what went wrong in the factory, and it turned out that they had bought a heavy machine tool for numerical control technical transformation. The first is to replace the ordinary stepper motor of the original machine tool with a special servo motor that they have prepared for a long time. This is a big guy, or ask the Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering and the Institute of Metal Materials to help make it.
The second was to replace the scale and gauge of the original machine with their proprietary ultra-deep ultraviolet laser scanning system. In this way, not only can the machining accuracy be greatly improved, but also the necessary technology of numerical control. The industrial control chip is processed by the servo motor through the scanning data of the laser. So the previous mechanical scale is definitely useless.
The super-heavy machine tool is different from the general machine tool, it does not need to process complex parts, it is specialized in processing coarse guys, such as: spindles, heavy-duty gears, heavy-duty bearings, etc. Therefore, there is no need to engage in multi-axis transformation, or combined CNC machine tool transformation. Of course, except for the machine tools used in the processing of the ship's propeller, Changsheng Investment Group has not yet entered this industry, so there is no need to carry out major technical transformation of heavy CNC machine tools, as long as the machining accuracy is improved.
What they are talking about now is why there is always an error of up to 5 filaments during the test. This error value is fatal relative to the main shaft and bearing of the gas turbine generator, and it is not qualified at all. Fortunately, it is now a test, using ordinary steel billets, if the processing from the Guangzhou shipyard 30,000 tons of hydraulic press processed special steel billets will be troublesome, not to mention the cost of materials, just ask the Guangzhou shipyard to process the spindle cost more than 500,000 yuan. It's scary to think about the consequences, so they're now discussing what went wrong.
They first ruled out the problem of the machine tool base, Changsheng Construction inherited Shen Danqing's simple and rude or wasteful method, the machine tool base is made of thick steel cage and concrete cast ten times the weight of the machine tool base, which can ensure that the machine tool is processing, the machine tool as a whole plus the base will not move at all.
Then they checked the springs and screws at the connection between the machine tool and the base, started the machine tool to process, and then tested it with a special instrument, and found that the vibration was very small, which could ensure that the error during processing was within a trace. The servo motor and laser scanning system are produced by Changsheng Seiko itself, and with Changsheng quality standards as a guarantee, there can be no problems at all.
Since there is no problem with the part of their own transformation, then the problem appears in the machine tool itself, and after careful inspection up and down, a lot of problems have been found.
First of all, the problem of the guide rail, and the biggest problem, when processing, it is a little unbearable, resulting in a slight deformation. There was no way, only to replace. It seems that only the special steel blanks of the Institute of Metal Materials can be processed by Guangzhou Shipyard.
Since it will take time to make a big change, simply check it out thoroughly. They also found that there was also a problem with the main bearing of the machine tool and had to be replaced. Even the machine bed has problems, the stress is not eliminated, and it is directly the newly cast bed. This definitely doesn't work, you have to find a way to relieve the stress. Fortunately, the Institute of Metal Materials has electromagnetic resonance technology to quickly relieve the stress of the metal, otherwise it would take at least a few years for it to be relieved naturally.
In this way, the machine tool was only installed soon after it was shipped to Huizhou for a major transformation, and all machine tools had to be changed. These are big guys, and it's not so easy to ship them back to Huizhou.
Judging from the above situation, domestic machine tool manufacturers still generally have the problem of shoddy manufacturing. Even the famous Beijing Machinery and Jinan Heavy Machinery are like this, and other machine tool companies have more problems.
In fact, this is the fault of state-owned enterprises, not a mistake that cannot be corrected. Because the employees of state-owned enterprises work to ensure income during droughts and floods, the fixed wages and bonuses are too low. Therefore, the sense of responsibility is not strong. This is to want the horses to run, and only feed the horses grass, how can there be such a good thing. So later the country also found this problem, carried out the reform of the enterprise system and the transformation of shares, the income of employees has been greatly improved, and after fierce market competition, the domestic machine tool enterprises have slowly raised the quality. The processing standard has also been improved from millimeter to μ meters. It has reached the same level as the world machine tool standard, which many people do not know. I think that the domestic is still shoddy level, in fact, after fierce market competition, such enterprises have long been eliminated or self-improvement. From millimeter level to μ meter level, there is no hurdle that cannot be overstepped, as long as the quality control is strengthened. The transition from μ meters to nanometers is a technological leap, and it is necessary to find a way to solve the problem of measuring rulers with nanometer accuracy. There are also ultra-deep ultraviolet laser scanning systems, non-mechanical operation control tracks, etc., all of which require a lot of brainstorming. There is no technology in the world for them to learn, and it is too late for others to cover it! Even the Changsheng Investment Group is like this, and their nano-precision machine tools are not sold to the outside world. Of course, the use of such machine tools is also very narrow, mainly in the microelectronics industry. Therefore, there is no need for general machine tool companies to tackle these technologies.
It is very troublesome to transport these heavy machine tools back to Huizhou, not only because they are bulky, but also because they can be solved with large gantry cranes. You may not know that in the nineties, the main thing was to rely on the railway to solve the problem of long-distance transportation, so the wagons were very nervous, and the urine of the iron boss, they were no one to sell face. However, Changsheng Investment Group has no other relationship, that is, it has money. Ask the leader in charge of wagon dispatch to eat and drink a few times, and stuff him with a few Big Four cards in his pocket. It's all ok, it's as simple and crude as that.
That's not enough, the machine tool that has been assembled for a short time has to be disassembled, the whole machine tool is too long, and the train car is a little too much to put down. Fortunately, they only assembled one machine tool, the other machine tools were still scattered, and there was no need to transport anything else back to Huizhou, just transport the bed back. Because after such a big change from them, only the bed is useful. This bed has to be transported back to Huizhou to relieve stress. It can be said that Changsheng Investment Group has made a big loss this time. spent nearly 200 million yuan to buy back a bunch of beds that needed to be reprocessed, and a bunch of scrap copper and rotten iron that were useless for Changsheng Investment Group.
However, these beds are not available to Changsheng Investment Group now, and they do not yet have heavy machining capabilities. That's why he suffered this big loss, otherwise, with Shen Danqing's urine, he would definitely do it himself if he could do it himself, even if the cost performance was quite low, he would ask to do it himself.
Let's not talk about the troubles of the Changsha technical team of the Machinery Technology Research Institute, let us return to Changsheng Investment Group.
During this time, Shen Danqing had to go to the Mechanical Technology Research Institute almost every day, and he always had to pay attention to the production line design process of the OEM factory of Dell Company. After all, it was the first time they had designed such a large production line, and there might have been some aspects that were not properly considered. They still lack an intuitive understanding of the automated production line of the future. Because this production line was conceived by Shen Danqing with his head, he is the one who knows best. Although he didn't know how to solve it with specific techniques, he had a whole concept in his head.
No, he pointed out to the technical engineers in the office of the Institute of Mechanical Technology.
"There is no need to erect tracks here, and it is better to use smart transport vehicles. Shen Danqing pointed to a design unit on the drawing and said.
"Okay, boss, we'll fix it right away. An employee in charge of the technical design of the drawing immediately replied. No one dared to disobey the boss's words, and of course Shen Danqing would not point out indiscriminately. Smart delivery carts can really come in handy now.
