Chapter 215: Ultra-Small Aerospace Vehicle

"Old man, you said that the ultra-small aerospace vehicle has been designed, and now it has begun to be manufactured?" Hearing the old man's words, Zhu Lei immediately asked hurriedly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Yes, young master! The ultra-small air talk aircraft has been designed, and even the samples have been manufactured and have completed the test flight, the result is very perfect, compared to the original Suzaku type and shape is more excellent, although this aircraft due to the size, can not carry a lot of things, but the speed or maneuverability and flexibility of this aircraft have exceeded the original design expectations. Lao Wang replied.

"The samples have been test-flown so fast, I thought it would be fast enough to be able to manufacture samples by the end of this year, after all, the aerospace industry is no better than others, it needs to go through a lot of calculations and experiments, I can't imagine that you have completed the design and manufacture of ultra-small manned space vehicles so quickly, and there is no difference between the size and appearance of this aircraft and the sketch when I left." Zhu Lei asked again.

"Young Master! Now the prototype of this ultra-small aerospace vehicle has been manufactured, compared to the original sketch is much smaller, the rest is not much changed, now this aircraft is about six meters long and two meters wide, not much bigger than a car, but although this aircraft is not enough, but it can carry two people and a maximum of about five tons of cargo, and the speed of flight is also very fast, but in the atmosphere due to the design of this aircraft, all the speed is not as fast as the speed of the two Suzaku aerospace aircraft, But the speed in the universe is not much slower than the speed of Suzaku.

And flexibility due to the small size of this aircraft, so its flexibility in the universe is much better, but although this is an ultra-small aerospace vehicle, but its production cost is not low, because this is an ultra-small manned aircraft, so there are a lot of parts in it If it is a large aircraft, these parts can be processed with ordinary precision machine tools.

However, if it is replaced by this kind of small aircraft, it must be processed by a machine tool at the level of the parent machine, otherwise the risk of the aircraft will be expanded dozens of times, and the cost of all such aircraft will increase several times, so that the cost of each ultra-small aerospace vehicle produced is now one-half of that of Suzaku I.

So now the guys in the aerospace design and manufacturing center have begun to redesign small aerospace vehicles again, and now the design drawings are about to come out, but this time the design is not an ultra-small aerospace vehicle, but a small aircraft about ten meters long, compared to the aircraft you saw when you first walked a little bit of the design of the aircraft, but this aircraft can already be processed with ordinary precision machine tools because of a lot of parts. Therefore, the cost of this aircraft is much lower than that of this ultra-small aerospace vehicle, and we can't say how much it can be reduced.

After all, this craft is still in the process of being designed. Even the sample has not been manufactured, so I don't know yet, but the people in the aerospace design center estimate that the cost of this aircraft can be reduced by at least ninety percent compared to the ultra-small aircraft, that is to say, to build an ultra-small aerospace vehicle, you can manufacture ten aircraft under design, so that aircraft is very suitable for large-scale production. The old man said.

"Old man, are you mistaken! You said that the aircraft being designed is four meters larger than the one being built in front of you, but the cost is reduced by ninety-percent? Zhu Lei asked in surprise.

After all, in Zhu Leikai, this is really incredible, you must know that the aircraft being designed is four meters larger than the aircraft being manufactured! Even if that aircraft can use ordinary precision machine tools to process parts, the cost will not drop so much, you must know that the price of the materials inside is about the same price.

"Yes! Master, I'm not wrong, the cost can really be reduced by ninety, this is due to the expansion of the aircraft in terms of materials, so the materials used in many parts do not need to use the latest alloy materials just developed in the factory, and the same materials as the Suzaku type 1 can be used.

And now the materials used in the Suzaku 1 type, due to the improvement of the smelting process, the cost of those materials has also been greatly compressed, and now the materials on the Suzaku 1 aircraft can be controlled at the level of 1/15 of the original smelting, and some are even lower, but the cost of some materials can only be compressed at the level of 5/6 of the original.

However, now the overall cost of the Suzaku 1 can now be controlled at the original level of one-ninth, that is to say, the original manufacture of one Suzaku 1 can now make 9 Suzaku 1, and the cost of the Suzaku 2 has also dropped by about seven or eight percent.

The cost of all the aircraft being designed has dropped so much, and many of the parts of the aircraft we are manufacturing in front of us are alloys produced by the newly developed formula in our factory, and the cost of smelting these alloys is very high, and because the processing difficulty of these materials is very high, in addition to the newly produced industrial machine tools in a workshop, other machine tools in the factory can not be processed at all. Even the previous generation of industrial machine tools placed at the door now can't process these alloys, so the price of this aircraft has increased a lot.

And because the aircraft is small, it is only about six meters long. About two meters wide, all these parts inside are very small, the processing difficulty is very large, if you want to manually process, there is even nowhere to start, so manual processing is simply impossible, even if you use these new industrial machine processing in front of you, the scrap rate has reached two percent, which is impossible to accept for a product that wants to be mass-produced, you must know that this is still a product processed by industrial mother machine.

And these machine tools can not always process these parts, there are a lot of things that need to be processed by the mother machine, even if it is designed and manufactured to manufacture machine tools that specialize in manufacturing these parts, the scrap rate is unacceptable, after all, the scrap rate of the mother machine production has reached two percent, if it is replaced by other machine tools, then the scrap rate will be higher, after all, even the precision of professional machine tools can not be compared with the mother machine, so although this aircraft is good, it is not suitable for large-scale production at all. After speaking, the old man looked at Zhu Lei and waited for his statement, after all, he was the owner of this factory, if Zhu Lei didn't care about the cost and wanted mass production, then he would have nothing to say.
