Chapter 107: Birth of Semi-Automatic Machine Tools
"Everyone, please come here", Wu Liankui greeted everyone as soon as he arrived at the laboratory in the morning, and everyone came to the conference room one after another.
After Wu Liankui saw that everyone was coming, he said excitedly: "The parts of the semi-automatic machine tool have been produced and strain relieved, and the next step is to assemble." I suggest that the first assembly should still be in charge of Deputy Director Li, and we all will work on it, and I am already looking forward to its birth."
We all know the significance of this machine tool, it is completely based on the platform and module concept design, and the accuracy has surpassed all the current domestic machine tools, and has narrowed the gap with the latest machine tools in Europe and the United States.
In the assembly workshop of the precision laboratory, the members of the laboratory gathered here, and Li Guocheng was in charge and instructed everyone to complete the assembly of each module. Whenever a module is completed, Li Guocheng will personally inspect it, and reassemble it in person if it is unreasonable.
In the process, ask whether there is any unreasonable place in the assembly process, and revise it according to everyone's feedback. Validating the process while assembling is already a standard workflow in precision laboratories.
Wang Gong and Master Yi often sighed, after a lifetime, the first time to see every detail in the production and assembly process has process guidance, the past production process everyone has their own working habits, have their own unique skills, the biggest disadvantage is that it can not be popularized, can not quickly form productivity.
According to the current technological process, although the ability requirements for workers have not been reduced much, the yield and production efficiency have been significantly improved, and the replicability has been greatly enhanced. It will never happen again that in the past, a senior worker taking time off work could lead to the production or assembly of critical components.
After 3 days of hard work, all the modules were assembled, and the next step was to assemble the whole machine.
In addition to the base, Li Guocheng used a gantry crane, and all the other modules were completed with his hands during the integration process, which made the people around him jealous.
It only took half a day to complete the integrated assembly of the whole machine. At this time, in the assembly workshop, Director Li, Deputy Director Nie, Section Chief Sun of the Technical Section, and three other deputy directors were concentrated.
The first semi-automatic machine tool that all the members of the laboratory collectively completed the assembly is now wearing red and hanging colors in the center of the assembly workshop, and everyone is excitedly surrounding it, full of enthusiasm, like looking at their own children.
"Director Li, please unveil our first semi-automatic machine tool," Wu Liankui invited.
Li Huaide walked steadily to the gearbox of the machine tool with a smile in his eyes, and when he stretched out his slightly trembling hands, this revealed the excitement in his heart. This is what he has been looking forward to, and it is the killer weapon of their department to obtain greater political capital, and it is now firmly in his hands.
Li Huaide took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and pulled down the silk cloth hanging on it with his hand.
"Dawning Type II" several metal fonts appear on it. This name was discussed many times by everyone, and finally decided by Director Li.
Li Huaide reached out and fumbled for the font, his eyes shining, as if he was caressing his beloved things.
Dawning II, Li Guocheng considered the industrial art elements when designing, the appearance is completely different from the current popular design, the overall is very soft and beautiful, running through a process edge on the front, perfectly integrating the roughness of the machine and the coordination of perception.
The overall design considers not only the comfort of workers when using, but also the convenience, safety and ease of operation during maintenance.
After appreciating the Dawning II machine tool, Li Huaide turned around, his mood had stabilized, his hands were under pressure, and everyone's applause stopped.
"The design and production of the Shuguang 1966 machine tool marks that our Red Star Rolling Mill has the design and production capacity of the whole machine. It's a pity that we didn't keep it, which is a pity for the people of our Red Star Rolling Mill."
Li Huaide looked around and stabilized his emotions.
"However, in less than half a year, we have designed and manufactured a more advanced Dawning II semi-automatic machine tool, which not only makes up for our domestic technology gap, but also catches up with the technical level of Western developed countries, and is a Spring Festival gift to our great motherland."
Thunderous applause all around, Wang Gong and Master Yi feel the most profound, now the various workshops of the rolling mill are about to become a multinational machine tool exhibition hall, are old antiques, low production efficiency not to mention, but often lying in the nest.
Repair parts are difficult to buy, and even if they can be bought, they are extremely expensive. If you want to introduce advanced machine tools, it is more difficult than climbing to the sky.
Now it's different, we have our own precision machine tools, and more precision machine tools will be produced in the future. With this accumulation of technology, we will be able to design and manufacture better machine tools in the near future.
Master Yi thought about the past when he grew up, and that kind of sadness and humiliation made him, who had always been steady, shed tears.
Wang Gong, who also felt the same way, patted Master Yi's shoulder and sighed.
"Next, please ask Director Li to start the machine tool", Wu Liankuicun became the host.
Li Huaide put his hand on the start button and pressed it hard.
The machine runs very smoothly, without the start-up noise of the old antiques in the various workshops, and there is no light or heavy shaking of the machine tools.
Li Guocheng personally set up the ruler and gearbox configuration, fixed the semi-finished workpiece that needed to be processed, and then got out of the way.
Deputy Director Nie accepted Wu Liankui's invitation, walked forward slowly, and pressed the driving button.
With a slight metal cutting sound, the machine moves automatically. After a few minutes, the machine stops automatically. The people around who had never seen the world were all amazed.
Wang Gong personally started the measurement. When the results were reported, everyone cheered, and Zhou Xiaojuan screamed and jumped.
Everyone passed the processed parts to each other, and repeatedly groped with their hands, and it took a long time for everyone to quiet down.
"Next, we ask you to work together to assemble our two remaining machines and verify their manufacturability. We'll take care of the rest. Please also keep it a secret for the time being, because I would like to leave the Dawning II at our Red Star Rolling Mill."
Li Huaide spoke out his ambitions in front of those present.
People were very excited, some were excited about the ability of the rolling mill to build machine tools, and some were excited about having more resources to work with.
After the meeting ended, Li Huaide handed over Li Guocheng and Wu Liankui to his office.
"Come, Xiao Li, Xiao Wu, you drink tea", Li Huaide personally made tea for the two.
"Thank you, Director," each of them expressed their gratitude.
"Xiao Li, you recently find a time to report to your father-in-law about the results of the Dawning II machine tool as soon as possible, I think they are also looking forward to it, and at the same time, we must express our Red Star Rolling Mill's wish to keep it", Li Huaide was full of expectations.
Li Guocheng put down the teacup and nodded in agreement.
"Xiao Wu, you can ventilate with the old man when you go back, we need more people's support", Li Huaide was obviously more casual when talking to Xiao Wu.
"No problem, Uncle Li".
"I'll leave the rest to me, of course, I will also mobilize Deputy Director Nie and a few of them to make sure that nothing goes wrong", Li Huaide burst out with a kind of determination to break the boat.
Thank you all for your support! Ask for recommendations! Ask for a commuter pass!
Things at home have stabilized, and the work left by the unit has been concentrated in the past few days, and it is optimistically estimated that the update speed of two chapters a day can be resumed tomorrow.
Thank you again for your perseverance, and I will work hard to write a good story.
