724 The Heaven-defying Killer(1/2)
"Everyone, this is the latest heavy-duty CNC floor boring and milling machine we jointly developed with Jiuyi and Northern Heavy Industry. We can process heavy mechanical parts that are ten meters long, three meters wide, and two meters eight meters high. The machining accuracy can ensure a straightness of 0.1mm and a surface plane of 0.05mm within one square meter..." Deng Lanqing, who is about to take over the yard of Jiuyi Research Institute, introduced the heavy equipment being debugged to the members of the inspection team.
This equipment is customized by a shipyard in Shanghai. It is mainly used to produce boring and milling planes for some heavy-duty parts for marine use.
Some key components on the ship have high space dimension requirements for the empty or other shaped surfaces used for final assembly.
Of course, this allows the equipment to position the holes of some processing in a high degree, thus giving birth to a special CNC equipment - a coordinate boring machine.
Coordinate boring machines, even in China, have to be millions of the smallest equipment, and are used to process some large parts with relatively high accuracy.
Small parts basically don’t use this kind of equipment, after all, the machining center can control the accuracy to a very high accuracy.
"Continue to show them other equipment, they can't use these equipment. What they need mainly are three to five meters CNC gantry milling machines and four-axis machining centers..." Deng Lanqing couldn't help but frown when he saw these foreign guys lacking interest in such equipment.
Yun Fei hurriedly stepped forward and said to her.
Many of the equipment in this laboratory have been seen by foreigners who are half-understand or not. Although they are conducting different research and studying different projects, there is not much difference for them.
For equipment such as CNC floor boring and milling machines, only countries with heavy industries such as heavy machinery and equipment manufacturing and shipbuilding industry have demands. Even if these countries that are allied with China have coasts, few of them want to build a strong navy.
The Navy needs not only money, but also technology.
What these guys need is high-end equipment for manufacturing missiles and some spare parts of aircraft. At the same time, heavy equipment that can process or repair large parts of heavy equipment such as tanks.
Military factories in these countries can generally produce and repair some ordinary guns and cannons, and even some key spare parts of tanks and armored vehicles need to be imported from the country of origin.
The former Soviet Union has collapsed, and the Russian government is now so poor that it is dying. Not only does it raise prices, but in order to maintain relations with the United States, even the export of some basic accessories is constantly stumbling their necks.
Especially Iraq and Iran, countries such as the international community, are being sanctioned by the international community.
Years of Iran-Iraq War made them realize that if they rely solely on the weapons they purchased, the entire country's economy would collapse in just a few days.
It has boosted the pockets of the countries that sell weapons in the United States and Russia, but has made them suffer.
This is something no one wants to see.
Over the years, they have been importing technology from China, and many conventional military equipment can be manufactured by themselves.
This time, we have obtained medium-range missiles that can hit hundreds of kilometers and have an accuracy of less than 100 meters from China. No matter which country wants to beat them, we have to consider them carefully.
Moreover, what Iran has, Iraq must have; what Iraq has, and Iran must also have. Although the Iran-Iraq War has brought back the economies of their two countries for decades, they have black gold - oil in their hands that the entire international community needs!
"This workshop is our research and testing workshop for high-end CNC equipment. This mainly focuses on continuously improving the technical level and accuracy level of our machining center. At present, our vertical four-axis machining center and horizontal four-axis machining center have mastered mature manufacturing technology. Using our technology, Jiuyi Heavy Industry has provided dozens of equipment to some domestic precision machinery manufacturing factories..."
"You can take a look at it at will, but please don't enter the yellow area where the staff around the equipment are located..." Some things are too lazy to introduce to these guys. Anyway, they have signed supply contracts with the government and have already had a detailed understanding of the performance of the equipment when it was in the capital.
"Mr. Yun Fei, our boss wants to talk to you after this visit. I don't know if you have time..." When Yun Fei just finished speaking, he asked these guys to see it himself, if he didn't understand, he asked the staff working next to the equipment.
But I found that those who are interested in these equipment are all domestic officials!
Yun Fei also knew that there must be many senior management and technical supervisors from other state-owned machine tool factories accompanying them. Anyway, I explained these researchers, no matter how they asked, the core things could not be said.
When Yun Feizhen was about to find an opportunity to sneak out and smoke a cigarette, a young Chinese actually ran over to find a person and said that their boss wanted to talk to him. This was obviously a translator.
Maybe it's not just a translation.
"Who is your boss?" Yun Fei asked with a frown.
"Our boss's surname is Hussein..." The young man put his mouth to Yun Fei's ear and said in a low voice.
"He is in my workshop now?" Yun Fei looked around. There were more than ten or twenty people from the Middle East. In his world, the Hussein family, who ruled Iraq, was basically a household name.
The Americans gave them too much coverage.
Yun Fei really didn't expect that Saddam would actually send his immediate relatives to China. Did the words he said to people from their country last time worked?
"No, Mr. Hussein came to Rongcheng with their delegation, but his identity as a team driver..." said the translator with a toothache.
"After the inspection team visited our research institute, we have to return to the capital. Where did he get the time to interview me?" Yun Fei's brows frowned even more.
"The inspection team will not go back to the capital today. After all, this time, many people have come to China for the first time. When they come to Chengdu, they have to go to see the giant pandas before going back, otherwise they will come to China in vain..." the translator said with a smile.
"Aren't you Chinese?" Yun Fei was stunned. If this guy was Chinese, Iraqi people wouldn't be so stupid that they let him pass the message.
Yun Fei just asked, and he felt that he was a waste of time.
"My parents used to be Chinese, but they were both victims of this great upheaval in the country. They were educated youths in the Construction Corps in the West, but later they sneaked out of the border and entered Iraq through Afghanistan. President Saddam gave them a job..." The young man said with an indifferent smile.
But the sound is very small.
"Where is he going to meet?"
"This is your territory, and he hopes you can arrange a place, a safe place..." the young man said seriously.
"If he can go back to Rongcheng without the people from the inspection team, he can go to my house and wait. If you can't find a place, my driver Xiao Liuzi is outside now. You can ask him to take you in my car..." Yun Fei thought for a while and replied to the young man.
He originally thought that this guy was a translator arranged by the state to those guys abroad.
But I didn't expect that this guy was actually an informed descendant.
"Everyone, this is the most core laboratory of our entire Jiuyi Group. All our most advanced technologies are here, especially this - a flexible manufacturing unit. Especially the industrial robot in the middle that clamps, disassembles and processes parts and automatically changes the tool. Theoretically, it should be the most advanced industrial robot in the whole of China, and at least the first-class robot in the world..." The flexible manufacturing system we visited was the core of the entire tour group.
This is a fully automatic unmanned workshop!
Although it is still experimental, various problems always arise. However, when some large-scale parts are produced, the production efficiency during the average working time is much higher than that of manual efficiency.
Once this experimental research is successful, countless migrant workers will be unemployed in China. Of course, the manufacturing equipment of this system is also extremely expensive. According to Deng Lanqing's original vision, everything in this production workshop is operated by industrial robots, completing the manufacturing of the initial blank to the final finished product, as well as robots that assist in the handling of auxiliary materials and waste chips, and even the cleaning and hygiene of the ground is done by sweeping robots...
The only thing that needs people to operate is the central control room and some engineers who want to maintain the operation of the entire production workshop.
Now this workshop has only been completed in a small part. If Deng Lanqing's idea is based on the entire workshop, it will cost more than 10 billion yuan to achieve the prototype she expected...
In other words, a boss like Yun Fei would not have allowed her to do whatever she wants if she was a boss or any leader of a state-owned unit.
Of course, if only investment is made, Yunfei would not have let Deng Lanqing do this at all. Instead, during the experiment process, this workshop will produce a series of advanced robotics technologies that can be used in various manufacturing industries, and the largest market is the automobile manufacturing industry.
How popular this industry will be in China in the future? It is understood by Chinese people. Automatic handling, automatic welding, automatic assembly, etc. are basically the topics that all automation control companies are studying.
The Chinese have been staggering since two thousand years later. Moreover, China's cheap labor has made the number of robots used in China quite small.
In the Japanese automobile industry, there are 28 auxiliary robots among the 100 industrial workers, while in the United States and Germany, more than ten are robots.
China's automobile industry, including those unmanned automatic welding workshops, has only less than four robots among the one hundred automobile industry workers!
Of course, robot research and development is not a simple matter. Whether you want to talk about technology or just about capital is the biggest problem.
This is basically burning money.
Of course, once this unmanned mechanical production workshop is successfully released, it proves that they have completely reached the forefront of the world in terms of robots.
After inquiring from many sources, the unmanned production workshop in Japan that Yun Fei had heard of was not as powerful as the legendary one. It still uses manual labor in many places.
It is said that their entire workshop has an annual output value of hundreds of millions of dollars, with only more than twenty engineers, and the workshop director actually serves as a doorman. This is just a rumor.
Originally, at the beginning of this manufacturing system, Yun Fei had never thought about letting these guys visit their latest progress.
But now that the orders in his hands have been snatched a lot, he can only present this project that has just begun to the eyes of these people.
What are the most lacking in these small countries?
Technical workers!
Especially skilled workers.
And their system, at the initial stage, can replace the technical workers who need training with unmanned production models.
In this way, these skilled workers can be liberated from the heaviest work.
"Boy Yun, when did you set up this project? Why don't we know?" Listening to Deng Lanqing's introduction and her idea of this unmanned workshop, the eyes of the leader were almost falling out.
This is the real modernization!
"This project is just a derivative of our flexible manufacturing project. You also know that our research institute is not strict in approval of some projects. All I want is the result. As for how the engineer in charge can achieve this result, it doesn't care about my business at all..." Yun Fei was telling the truth. After Deng Lanqing worked on this workshop for a while, he found that the manpower and material resources and funds needed were too huge, so he had to consult him, the boss.
For this project, Deng Lanqing's marriage failed.
Her senior brother in the United States also found another woman to get married...
"How long will it take to complete such a workshop?" The second leader did not expect that the private research institute of the Jiuyi Institute, which has only been established for a few years, had such strong scientific research capabilities.
"This is not even a prototype. If we want to reach the level we imagine, maybe we will not be able to handle it in our lifetime..." Yun Fei said with a wry smile.
He is telling the truth.
The top professionals needed here also require a large number of grassroots technical personnel to assist. If you want to work here, the things that undergraduates learn are basically not enough to read.
"This requires a lot of money, right?" Su Guangxiang used to think that Jiuyi Heavy Industry had been relying on luck to overturn a state-owned factory. But now seeing these money-burning research projects of Jiuyi Research Institute, a feeling of powerlessness suddenly arises.
While domestic machine tool factories were still studying three-axis and four-axis machining centers, Jiuyi Heavy Industry had already started the research and development of robots in the final form of machining centers!
"This workshop is built in a prototype, and the funds required will be over 10 billion..." Yun Fei's words immediately made Su Guangxiang swallow what the state gave to swallow.
Such a project that just replaces labor with machinery requires tens of billions of dollars!
Who dares to play like Yun Fei?
"Since you may not succeed in your life, you have to spend countless funds. What's the use? Are you so much money that you have no place to spend? Although the country's economy has developed over the years, many places are still very poor. Otherwise, you donate this money to help the poor..." The leader knew that Yun Fei would never do anything that would be beneficial.
Whatever you say is for the sake of the country and the nation, it is used to fool people!
Everything this kid does is to make money!
Make more money!
This is the most typical thing a businessman needs to do.
