735. Automated Factory
Old Hammer, along with Sherman, Sophia, and Jonny, is located at the very center of the first floor of the factory, where there is a prototype platform 20 meters in diameter and 2 meters in height, where a group of mages control the entire operation.
Around the perimeter of the platform, a large number of newly completed magic pattern processing equipment are arranged: magic metal casting furnaces, forging presses, and cutting machines...... These 10-meter-tall machines are evenly distributed along the north and south gates of the factory.
And on the ground, around these large equipment, there are also large tracks, magic patterns and markers, such a complex ground is a little incomprehensible even if it is an old hammer who has been to many mountain forts.
Soon there was a rumbling sound at the west gate of the factory, and a demonic man piloted a minecart into the first floor of the factory and drove towards the platform in the center.
The nose of the train has intricate magic patterns, and everywhere you go, the tracks on the ground are bright, apparently this is the road version of the power container that travels to and from the various river basins of the Benma River.
"This car ......"
Before the old hammer could finish speaking, the eight-car mine cart turned left and drove to the side of the press, leaving the last container next to the machine without slowing down.
There are also different magic patterns on each carriage behind the front of the locomotive, and every time the front of the locomotive passes through a large equipment, the magic pattern of the nearby material preparation area will be lit up, and the magic pattern of the container carrying the processing material will also be lit up, and the whole car will enter the material preparation area to unload.
By the time the front of the locomotive had traveled along the tracks in the factory, all the cars behind it had been left near the various equipment.
"How! These were all designed by Jonny, and Lord Rand called it a cargo line," Sophia said cheerfully, looking at the surprised look in the old hammer's eyes.
At this moment, the realization of the old hammer is still next to the first stamping machine, after a container truck enters the preparation area, the pallet truck and the container are separated under the action of the suspension array.
The lid of the container was opened, and the magic metal blanks that had been melted and cast in the mountain workshop were sent into the stamping table by a junior mage with the hands of a mage, while another mage sent the processed plates from the original platform into the magic pattern container in the pick-up area.
The cart that was originally in the material preparation area has now been pushed into the pickup area by two demons-free people along the track, and the levitation circle is activated again, sending the demon pattern cabinet full of plates to the cart.
About a minute later, the front of the locomotive that had just come to deliver the blanks passed through the press again, and the pallet cars in the pick-up area automatically followed the front of the locomotive, and together with the six containers that followed one after another, a new train was formed towards the track leading to the second floor.
After the train disappeared from sight, the old hammer turned to look at Sophia, still unable to hide his shock in his eyes.
The shock brought by the factory to the dwarves is far more than the restoration of the function of the Night Qicheng and the entry of the barbarians into the Hindukir, after all, the latter is just for him that the terrans and the orcs are fighting again, but this factory proves that the processing capacity of the human race is no longer inferior to the dwarves.
"Your Excellency? This factory...... Completely designed by the Salt Iron Division? ”
The old hammer didn't hear Sophia's words just now, and he subconsciously hoped that everything in front of him was built by the Terran Empire under the leadership of the legendary dwarf.
"Old hammer! Didn't you hear that! Sophia was anxious when she heard this, "Although these equipment are customized from the Salt and Iron Division, the layout of the magic circle and the design of the movement line in the entire factory are all made by Jonny, and the functional requirements are all put forward by Rand!" ”
"Yes...... Is it? Old Hammer looked over to the legendary dwarf, but received an affirmative answer.
"It was indeed designed by Rand and these girls, and when they first found me, they proposed that the blanks, magic raw materials, water, and even air entering the factory, the finished products, waste water and exhaust gas leaving the factory must be strictly controlled and treated, and the demand that the finished products from the material into the road and the finished product cannot be landed."
Sherman shrugged his shoulders and said with a look of 'these crazy people came up with it', "At the time, I thought it was a fantasy, but I didn't expect it to be done." ”
"Such a good factory, only doing shape processing, not rune and magic pattern processing?" The old hammer reacted that all the equipment on the first floor did not involve the processing of magic patterns, and all the blanks were only processed into plates or cables here.
Sophia shook her head and said, "That's the work on the second floor, where there is magic printing equipment, and after the processing is completed, it will be sent to the workshop in the territory for assembly or finished product processing, this factory is not responsible for mass production of products, only parts processing." ”
"Lord Rand is really kind-hearted!" The old hammer nodded, in his opinion, if Rand was really ready to mass-produce any magic products according to the model of this factory, I am afraid that no workshop would be able to compete with him.
On the third floor of the factory, in addition to the conference room and monitoring workshop, there are also 3 finishing workshops, each of which is laid with complex and exquisite magic circles, so that magic materials can be refined into various shapes of parts in batches, and magic patterns and runes can be added at the same time.
Compared with the equipment on the first and second floors, the finishing workshop on the third floor must be controlled by a more powerful Magister, which can be said to be the workshop with the highest control threshold in the entire new industrial area.
In the processing control room, the legendary mage Ben Kaul is experiencing the joy of finishing, he integrates his will into the control circle of the workshop, and feels that in a square trough in the next workshop, there is 100kg of blue steel material mixed with 5% magic black iron, which is becoming soft and malleable under high temperature.
"It's a pretty accurate ratio." Ben nodded, and then his mind moved, feeling that his mind was fully integrated into more than a dozen magic streams, constantly kneading, beating, heating, and cooling the materials below, ......
Just a few minutes later, in the processing workshop next door, 20 pieces of iron were shaped by the exact same magic, revealing the appearance of a box, which was the magic sealing box made by the legendary mage.
Ben Kaul, who had completed the manipulation, ran to the edge of the workshop with his teacher Klein, waiting to see the first products he made come out.
"They have integrated the magic of more than a dozen mage hands in a small magic circle, and turned the tangible "hands" into an invisible magic flow," Ben analyzed to the teacher, "The idea is very ingenious, but there is a bit of a problem here, ordinary mages may not be able to control the hands of more than 5 mages, and I even doubt that there are a few great mages who can control so many streams, and such a complex magic circle may not be able to play its full role!" ”
"Not necessarily, Wendy and Grea Blue Dragon will be able to control it," Crane said with a smile, "and other Magi can use this workshop to add magic patterns to the molded components. ”
In fact, Wendy and Gureaa couldn't control so many magic streams last month, but not long ago, a god visited their dreams, although the two girls and the legendary elf teamed up to stop the temptation of the Warcraft god, but after being teased by countless cat's claws, the two girls' understanding of magic unexpectedly improved.
