Sun Cheng has been in a good mood lately, and shortly after the hurricane ended, he briefly disappeared for two days again under the pretext of a business trip.

Returning to [Isla Nublar], he brought the defense to the island with him, and supervised the construction of the robot to rebuild Base 3.

With the supervision of the defender, Sun Cheng did not stay on the island for long, and soon returned to the Xia Kingdom.

After such a long delay, the development layout, which was originally semi-stagnant in reality, has also begun to enter the fast lane again.

With the official use of the [Intelligent Mechanical Laboratory], the cooperation between him and the Xia government has entered a honeymoon period.

[Future Machinery Technology Co., Ltd.] has been established for more than two months, before the graduation period, Sun Cheng recruited a group of fresh graduates with a high diploma content from major universities in Nandu.

The second-level national defense military production license he wanted was also sent over soon after two sets of semi-overlaid mechanical exoskeleton armor were taken away by Lieutenant Colonel Liu Nianyuan.

Also here were more than 20 veterans and reemployed servicemen who had undergone special training and were able to perform security work in key national defense scientific research units.

Like the [Intelligent Machinery Laboratory], the office space of [Future Machinery Technology Co., Ltd.] is also arranged in Ningjiang District.

Because of the special care of the equipment department, they also obtained a 47-acre piece of land in the core area of the Ningjiang Hi-Tech Park to build a special factory for the production of mechanical exoskeleton armor.

47 acres of land is indeed not worth mentioning for a large-scale production base of thousands of acres at every turn.

But for a factory specializing in the production of mechanical exoskeleton armor for the military, it was barely enough.

The most important thing is that most of the nearby factories belong to several domestic military and defense enterprises, and they are trustworthy in terms of safety.

The construction of the exoskeleton factory is under the responsibility of a state-owned construction contractor, because the scale is not large, and it is expected that the first steel structure workshop will be completed in a month and a half at most.

It can be seen that the country is a little anxious, but Sun Cheng can also understand it.

Since the beginning of the year, the political situation in Central Asia has been turbulent, and as a contest for the influence of major powers, everyone understands the principle of retreat if they do not advance.

Moreover, with the return of the United States to the Asia-Pacific strategy in recent years, it has also held back a stomach full of bad water to fan the flames around the Xia Kingdom, and there are not a few who even go into battle in person.

As a result, the pressure on the state in terms of armaments is increasing day by day.

Sun Cheng manufactured a total of four sets of semi-covered mechanical exoskeleton armor, two of which were tested by the Equipment Department.

The other two sets were placed by him in the [Intelligent Machinery Laboratory] that had just been put into use.

And he himself has been staying in the [Intelligent Mechanical Laboratory] recently, helping to test and try to continue to improve the low-level version of the half-covered mechanical exoskeleton armor that he came out of the rough liver at the beginning.

Mechanical exoskeleton armor, the products currently designed by various countries are still very rudimentary, including Sun Cheng's take, which is composed of three parts: the main body, the leg unit and the arm unit.

The main body of Sun Cheng's mechanical exoskeleton armor is the part worn on the front chest and back, of which the front chest is three to five horizontal and vertical steel shafts plus a number of soft nylon belts, which are mostly fixed devices; The back consists of a mechanical spine that runs through it, several steel shafts, and nylon straps.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the mechanical spine can be said to be the core of this set of mechanical exoskeleton armor, two lithium-air batteries are fixed somewhere in the spine, in addition to the extremely complex wiring and drive system inside.

In addition, there are three bayonets on the mechanical spine, two of which are located in the upper part of the back and one in the tail vertebrae, and the two bayonets on the back can add some equipment when needed, such as large external equipment packs, weapon units, etc., and the bayonet at the tail vertebrae is the place for the external control pack.

The control pack is placed on the waist to allow the Soldier to control the exoskeleton armor, turn on and off the actuation system, and other functions of the armor.

The main composition of the leg unit is a steel shaft plus nylon strap, and there are four small pushing spouts in the foot position.

The main body of the double-armed unit is also several steel shafts and nylon straps, and the left and right arms and hands are each equipped with two bayonets for use by equipped weapon units.

Because it is a simplified version of the latest generation of HULC mechanical exoskeleton with reference to [Berkeley Bionic Technology], this half-covered mechanical exoskeleton armor that has not yet been finalized and is still using the name of "Test Type 1", the structure is actually very simple.

Even if you remove its all-electric drive system and two lithium-air batteries, the rest of the cost is even less than 10,000 yuan.

"I'm ready!"

After the 'Test Type 1' was manufactured, Sun Cheng himself had already conducted several simple tests, and after confirming that there was no problem, he gave two sets of them to Liu Nianyuan and them.

However, after the [Intelligent Mechanic Laboratory] began to operate, in addition to a few fixed research topics, it also became one of them to continue to improve and improve the 'Test Type 1' class uniform prompt mechanical exoskeleton armor.

did not interfere with other research projects in the laboratory, and Sun Cheng, who was temporarily idle, personally selected a research team of 27 people.

The entire team is almost entirely composed of fresh college students from several key science and engineering colleges in Nandu, but he also recruited two doctoral students majoring in mechanical manufacturing and automation from Professor Chen Yuan's subordinates.

A group of people recently had a great time playing with two sets of 'Test Type 1' mechanical exoskeleton armor.

"Test Type 1 mechanical exoskeleton armor, the 17th test, wearer - Wang Jun, inspector - Liu Yiming, Liu Jun! Ready to get started......"

Sun Cheng stood silently to the sidelines, watching a team of young men about his age, who were there to help put a dozen kilograms of mechanical exoskeleton armor on a researcher's body for the 17th test.

The wearer of this test was a young man named Wang Jun, who had just graduated from college and was excited because it was the first time he wore mechanical exoskeleton armor.

With both feet on the chassis of the mechanical legs, the back fits the mechanical spine, and the hands fit with the mechanical arm.

Not far away, four cameras were facing them, meticulously recording all the footage.

"Get dressed, get up and move a little first!"

"Good!"

Wang Jun held back his excitement, made an OK gesture to the other researchers watching next to him, and immediately lowered his head and opened the control bag on his waist.

The control buttons in the control package are very simple, with only three different buttons: start, close, and full drive.

Considering that the palm of the hand after wearing the mechanical exoskeleton is not easy to operate, the separation distance between each button is large.

Wang Jun had already received simple training before putting it on, and he had seen some other researchers' experiments in the past few days, so he was barely experienced.

Therefore, after pressing the start button inside the control bag, he closed the control bag again, and his body quickly straightened up with the soft sound of a buzzing machine.

"Let's do a few simple movements first!"

Someone next to him reminded.

"Good!"

Wang Jun responded, immediately moved his fingers, and then turned his wrist, and the fingers of the Iron Fist Glove also made a perfect synchronous maneuver, and he saw that the other researchers around him who had not yet worn mechanical exoskeleton armor for testing were all clenched into their fists and their eyes were shining.
