Chapter 61: The Mechanical Scorpion
This room is the true centerpiece of the base.
In this room, there is not only a special type of energy reactor specially built to supply energy for this base, but also a fully automated small robotic production equipment.
There are also many other types of miniaturized production equipment, all of which are busy producing materials necessary for the operation of various bases.
Although limited to the small space, the equipment here is the most rudimentary, the most fragile temporary production equipment, it will not take long to be replaced in a complete set, but at least for the moment, they are still the source of power to maintain the operation and production of this base, and continue to expand outward.
Because of the existence of many high-precision processing equipment, this room is a completely dust-free and sterile space, and the procedures for entering and exiting are also the strictest.
When I came to this R&D room, I saw that there were a lot of production equipment in the room, and all kinds of pipelines and lines were densely packed throughout the room, but everything here was in order, all the details, all the factors were controlled to the most delicate level, and all the work was carried out smoothly, busy but not chaotic, busy and orderly, and the busy was more efficient.
As soon as Sima Mulong entered the room, he saw that the various types of robots scattered throughout the room were also making subtle but collective adjustments that affected the whole body in their respective trajectories.
In the already narrow space, all the robots, inch by inch, vacated a straight line, which was specially for Sima Mulong to walk on alone.
Sima Mulong can clearly see that those robots and robot arms that are crawling on the ground, flying in the sky, and dancing in mid-air are all in the already narrow and embarrassing working space, and a period of free reaction space has been severely compressed.
However, not all robots are so well-functioning, and some edge robots in the corner have had some accidents and some losses.
Sima Mulong sighed and said, "This room is still too small, and it's really hard for you, engineer, you have to schedule so many variables, and you are working all the time, I really shouldn't come over to disturb you, I feel that every time I come over, it is adding chaos to your work." ”
The engineer calmly replied, "Master, you don't need to feel guilty about this at all, in the smallest space, scheduling the most work, is originally the innate instinct of an engineer like me, born in the microparticle mother machine system, such a working space, even if it is expanded ten times, you will only see a denser work density when you come over again." ”
"That's my program setup, and it won't change unless you give it a specific order. ”
"As for the little loss that you see, it's totally worth it compared to the increase in productivity, and it's a price that you deserve, and it's not worth mentioning at all. ”
Sima Mulong nodded and said nothing more.
He went straight to the depths of the hall and inspected the operation of the energy reactor for the first time.
The energy reactor was not large, only the size of a refrigerator, and it stood calmly on the floor made of metal plates, and even though there was a huge amount of energy generated inside it at all times, from the outside, it could not feel even the slightest vibration, and it was quiet and almost no sound was produced.
Only the energy supply pointer on the energy furnace shows a huge output power, which is enough to support the normal power supply of tens of thousands of residents in an ordinary town, and the consumption of the entire base can be described as more than enough, but this output power is not even half of the maximum power of the energy furnace, and there is still a lot of potential to be tapped.
From the outside, it is difficult for you to imagine that this is an energy furnace, just by inputting some basic elements as reactants, you can continuously generate a huge amount of energy, and carry out the energy output of a kind of nuclear fusion reaction.
Its surface looks too simple, dusty appearance, square shape, except for some flashing indicators on the front, and some strange meters, it is almost like a washing machine: it has a thin tube responsible for feeding materials, and a tube of about the same thickness outputs the residual material residues and reactants after the reaction, but a thick energy supply cable as an arm seems very abrupt, it inherits the strong current output of the reactor, directly linked to the core network of the base function, supporting all electrical appliances except for the microparticle system, energy consumption.
This top priority, completely by the micron robot is responsible for all the material processing, and also used nano robots to participate in the manufacture of core components, a large number of advanced technology, combined with the advanced energy excitation concept of a powerful energy reactor, it can be said that it is the most high-tech product in the entire base, with it, the base is a self-sufficient, safe and hidden rear, without it, this now seems to be still vibrant, but a disguised tomb, even the supply of oxygen can not be guaranteed。
It was precisely because it was so important that Sima Mulong was the first to come over to check its operating status.
You know, don't look at it quietly like a beautiful man now, but once something goes wrong, it will explode! The intensity of the explosion is enough to completely destroy the entire base.
You know, Sima Mulong has a final plan to destroy the entire base by remote control once things are not in harmony, and now he still lives in this base, but he doesn't want to take a good plane on the dirt plane, so he naturally needs to pay close attention to this treasure, lest under an accident, the whole person will be gray for no reason, even if he knows that this reactor is actually quite safe, it will not explode easily, you can think of it has the possibility of exploding, and he can't help but feel furious in his heart.
Seeing that the energy furnace was in good condition and everything was normal, Sima Mulong was also relieved, and he turned to the fully automatic small robot production equipment next to him.
This piece of equipment, it can be said, is the second treasure of the town house in the entire base, second only to the energy reactor.
Its function is extremely powerful, under the continuous supply of materials, through a technology similar to 3D printing, directly print a complete small robot, completely integrated molding, including the internal circuit structure, mechanical transmission structure, and intelligent control structure, etc., all in one go, no need to establish a complete set of assembly lines so troublesome, is most suitable for the underground base in this small space of production self-sustaining.
It is precisely with the existence of this set of equipment that all kinds of small robots have been continuously produced and added to the operation system of the entire base, not only improving the protection system of the entire base, but also establishing a vast mining field outside the base, constantly collecting the necessary means of production for various bases, and even constantly expanding the construction area of the new base, asking for a larger base space to the deeper underground.
In order to create this treasure, Sima Mulong also made a lot of money, inside this machine, many groups of micron robot groups are built to participate in the printing and production of the most precise parts, so as to form the super ability of this production equipment.
I saw that now this treasure is quickly waving hundreds of printing probes the same size as needles on his body, working together from all angles, and spitting out dozens of different material ratios at the same time, so that a small robot is visible to the naked eye.
This is a mining robot similar to a scorpion, the production task of this robot is now the heaviest, an average of one can be produced every minute, it is not small, it is twenty centimeters long, two scorpion tongs are designed as a mining bucket, used for burrowing, the efficiency is really quite good, and there is almost no sound when mining, the most suitable for confidential operations.
After each mining mechanical scorpion is successfully manufactured, it will be directly teleported to the mining site outside through the teleportation channel built into this room, and the work can be started at that time.
However, this mechanical scorpion that has just been printed is not really finished, and it still needs further processing and modification, inspection and input into the program before it can really enter the working state.
I saw a mechanical arm wait until the mechanical scorpion was printed, grabbed it with a brush, and placed it firmly in a processing tool similar to an oven next to it, the gate of the "oven" was sealed, and after a slight vibration, about half a minute before and after, the mechanical scorpion that seemed to be more than half slimmed was freshly baked.
This step of processing is to carry out various energy treatments, eliminate the internal stress of the mechanical body, enhance the strength of the body through the strong pressure of the magnetic field, and focus on enhancing the anti-wear performance of the two scorpion pliers.
The baked scorpion was grabbed by another mechanical arm and put into a closed vessel that seemed to contain a basin of water, the liquid in the middle of the vessel was like clear water, in fact, the inside was a mixture of many micron robots and various elemental materials, after the mechanical scorpion entered it, after a full range of physical examinations, and after the program was injected, it would be put into the exclusive channel and directly enter the next mining work.
With the operation of this robot production system, it is free from the production bottleneck of micron robot mining at the beginning, these mechanical scorpions are easy to manufacture, low cost, and compared with the large size, the space is much more, and the mining efficiency has increased tens of millions of times.
