Chapter 748, Composite Armor
Jiang Yan led a group of technicians to the workshop of the factory, where various parts and modules were already placed.
"Comrades, today we are going to carry out the first assembly of a five-axis linkage CNC machine tool." Jiang Yan looked around and said in a solemn tone, "This is of epoch-making significance to our country's industrialization process. We hope that you will be careful to ensure that every step of the way is perfect. ”
The technicians present were all in high spirits and were all gearing up.
"Chief Engineer Jiang rest assured, we will definitely ensure the quality and make this machine perfect birth!" An old technician said arrogantly.
"It's just that we're not sloppy today. This machine is our pride!"
"Good. So, let's start with the rack assembly. Jiang Yan said.
So everyone quickly put into work and began to install the base and column in an orderly manner, and Jiang Yan unscrewed the bolts by himself while instructing.
"Chief Engineer Jiang, you have worked hard, let's come." Several young technicians dissuaded.
"It's okay, I'm going to be involved too. It was also a valuable experience for me. Jiang Yan said as he tightened the column firmly, but he didn't forget to teach a few people next to him when he was making it.
After the shelf of the machine tool was installed, Jiang Yan also tried it, and then led them to install the spindle system, feeding system, tool magazine system, etc.
"Okay, everything on the machine is installed, and we're going to start installing the control system. This stuff is a top priority," Jiang Yan said.
"Chief Engineer Jiang, I'll be in charge of this!" A technician stepped forward.
He carefully took out the control circuit board made by Jiang Yan and put it into the inside of the console.
After installing it, Jiang Yan walked over to take a look. There doesn't seem to be a problem at all.
"Okay, so let's go with software and logic programming. I'll do this," Jiang Yan said calmly.
He turned on the power and quickly typed his fingers into the panel to set up various logical relationships.
All the technicians present held their breath, for fear that one would accidentally destroy the program design of Chief Engineer Jiang, seeing that everyone was watching seriously, Jiang Yan did not explain, but kept typing.
After more than ten minutes, Jiang Yan finished typing the last piece of code and gently pressed the "confirm" button.
At this time, the newly assembled machine tool suddenly made a loud "roar", and the five axes were running rapidly!
"It worked!" Jiang Yan excitedly announced loudly.
"It worked! Hooray!" The technicians cheered, all of them with tears of excitement.
"We made it, we made it," everyone gathered around to congratulate. A few of them hugged each other, and the scene was quite good.
"Okay, okay, pause, now let's start the test machine." Jiang Yan stopped everyone's enthusiasm, "Xiao Zhang, go get a few pieces of the alloy blank we prepared." ”
"I'm going to get it!" Xiao Zhang Yingsheng ran to the material storage room and pushed a few materials in front of Jiang Yan.
After a few minutes, several alloy blanks are placed on the machine table one after the other.
Jiang Yan sat on the console, started the CNC program, and the machine immediately ran according to the control instructions.
The high-speed rotating spindle begins to cut the aluminum alloy blank at high speed.
"Hiss-" In the screeching sound of machinery, the machine tool moved quickly on five coordinate axes, and the tool flew back and forth on the metal.
"This, this, this speed is too fast!" Lao Li's eyes widened as he watched the knives on the machine fly over.
"I'll go, this speed is much faster than other machine tools!" A technician can't take his eyes off it.
The tools on the machine are like life, shuttling at high speed under the precise control of each axis, and the blank is quickly cut and formed.
"That's it!" Looking at the parts that were about to be machined, a technician opened his mouth in disbelief.
"This kind of special-shaped parts with complex curved surfaces can't be processed by our ordinary machine tools no matter what!"
"To make this kind of piece, ordinary machine tools can only process rough embryos, and the rest still need to be frustrated by skilled old fitters for a few days."
A group of technicians came over in surprise and talked about it.
Lao Li carefully picked up the processed special-shaped specimen and brought it to the operating table like a priceless treasure.
He picks up a precision micrometer and carefully measures each critical dimension.
"The dimensional error of each feature of the part is controlled within 0.01mm, which is the ultimate in finishing!"
Lao Li's hands couldn't help but tremble a little, he took a step back and sat on the ground.
"It's the first time I've seen this kind of machining accuracy."
If he hadn't seen this with his own eyes, Lao Li would not have believed that the machine could manufacture such precise parts of the opposite sex.
The other technicians were also dumbfounded, speechless by the efficiency and precision of the processing. The scene was silent, and everyone was trying to digest the scene they had just witnessed-
The magnificent industrial power shown by the five-axis CNC machine tool!
Hearing that the error of the part was completely under control, a group of technicians rushed forward again, vying to see the part.
An old fitter also crowded into the crowd to see this amazing specimen.
But when they took the parts in their hands and examined them carefully, they all looked a little ugly.
"This accuracy is more accurate than my manual processing."
"Now we old guys can't do any work?"
"What can we do in the future?"
Several old fitters looked at each other, all at a loss. They looked down at their calloused hands, and then at the spindle on the machine. I couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy in my heart - would the manual skills that I had worked for most of my life be eclipsed in front of this cold machine?
Little by little, my heart sank.
"Don't worry, your skills are still very valuable!" At this time, Jiang Yan's voice sounded in time
Jiang Yan saw their worries, walked over and patted them on the shoulder: "You group of skilled craftsmen are the pillars of the factory, okay!" Machines will never be able to replace your experienced hands!"
"It's just a tool. We also need everyone to use their wisdom to create more miracles!" Jiang Yan encouraged.
Hearing Jiang Yan's encouragement, the eyes of these old workers lit up again.
After dealing with the five-axis machine tool, Jiang Yan took several engineers to the No. 3 workshop of the research institute.
The third workshop belongs to the rolling workshop, where there are several large rolling mills, which are specially used for the rolling of thick steel plates. It is used for supporting use in several other workshops.
"Comrades, we need to carry out some modifications to these rolling mills to meet the needs of an important project." Jiang Yanshen said mysteriously.
"Huh? What kind of project is it for to renovate the rolling mill?" An engineer asked curiously.
"Well," Jiang Yan paused, "In short, it is a very important project, which is of great benefit to the development of the country." Just do what I say. ”
"Oh well, Chief Engineer Jiang, you can just tell me."
So the engineers began to transform the rolling mill according to Jiang Yan's requirements. Adjust the roller spacing to a specific size, install a customized rolling module, and optimize the mechanical properties of the entire structure.
Jiang Yan checked each step one by one to ensure that his standards for rolling armor plates were met.
"Whew, that's it!" After two days, the renovation work was successfully completed.
"Chief Engineer Jiang, we have achieved every indicator you requested, and this machine can now meet the needs of that mysterious project, right?" The engineer asked.
"That's it, well done! Your work means a lot to that big thing!" Jiang Yan said with a smile.
The engineers didn't know what was going on, but they puffed out their chests proudly.
Jiang Yan knew that with this transformed rolling mill, the manufacture of armored steel plates would be extremely smooth, and when the tank armor plates began to roll off the assembly line in batches, they would naturally understand how important their transformation was.
