The roar of the machine accompanied by the dry and hot air made the people here involuntarily wipe their sweat away.
In the middle of the workshop, there is an aircraft frame made of titanium alloy.
This is what the machinery factory has achieved in recent times.
If you follow this speed, completing the task shouldn't be a problem.
But this is not the case, because the further you go, the more things will happen and problems will arise.
And now, the time has come to test the workers.
After Yang Xiaotao came to the workshop, he was inspecting the manufacturing of aircraft fuel tanks.
Because the design of the aircraft's fuel tank is integral, that is, it is integrated with the aircraft frame, so the fuel tank must be completely integrated during manufacturing.
And considering the high temperatures that the fuel tank has to withstand, the material used this time is divided into two layers.
The outer layer is naturally stainless steel, and Yang Xiaotao chose to use titanium-rhenium alloy for the inner layer, and then put the finished inner layer of titanium-rhenium alloy inside.
The entire manufacturing needs to strictly follow the design regulations, so that after it is finally put in, it can be made to fit perfectly.
As for titanium-rhenium alloy, although the output is not large, when is it not used at this time?
"Mr. Yang, the outer layer of the fuel tank is very simple to process."
"But it's a bit difficult to put the inner layer in and make sure it fits perfectly."
Zhang Guanyu invited Yang Xiaotao over. Naturally, he had a problem to solve, so he explained it on the side.
"What's the difficulty?"
Yang Xiaotao asked, Zhang Guanyu pointed to the fuel tank being processed, "Mr. Yang, there is a problem with this connection."
"According to what you said, the aircraft connections this time were all hot riveted. Our comrades used many methods, but..."
"Come and see."
Zhang Guanyu felt that it was a bit difficult to say, so he took Yang Xiaotao to the processed fuel tank and said, "Look, this is still the place for riveting."
As he spoke, Zhang Guanyu stretched out his hand to touch it, and Yang Xiaotao also stretched out his hand to try.
There is a protrusion inside.
"Mr. Yang, there are a lot of these protrusions. If we follow our design, these protrusions will hinder the inner layer when it goes in."
Yang Xiaotao stood up, then looked around, "Where is Lao Wang? Call him over and ask if there is any good solution."
After a while, Wang Xushan and Qin Ming came over and learned about the situation.
"Mr. Yang, there is no other way but one, grind."
"grind?"
"Yes, just smooth it."
Wang Xushan gave his opinion, but Zhang Guanyu shook his head, "If it's smoothed out, how can it be fixed?"
Qin Ming said from the side, "So when connecting this link, you need to use more force. It is best to punch it in."
"This is not the way!"
Zhang Guanyu immediately denied, "This will affect the firmness and may cause fuel leakage."
Yang Xiaotao thought for a while, and then shouted to the people on duty outside, "Go and find Director Zhou Shenghong and Director Zhou of the lumber factory."
The guards outside immediately ran out.
"Lao Zhou knows a lot about this. Let's listen to his opinion."
Several people nodded.
Not long after, Zhou Shenghong came running over from the fourth workshop.
Nowadays, the machinery factory is busy with too many things, and orders for armored vehicles have remained high. Of course, this is also related to the fighting in the south.
In addition, several franchised countries in the west have tasted the benefits of Kuiniu armored vehicles, so there are always production tasks.
Zhou Shenghong directly divided the people in the lumber factory into two groups, one group helped in the machinery factory, and the other group was responsible for the operation of the lumber factory.
Rotate once a month and arrange it properly.
As for him, the factory director, he also comes here every now and then.
I happened to be in the machinery factory today and was called over by Yang Xiaotao.
"Mr. Yang, are you looking for me?"
As soon as Zhou Shenghong arrived, she came up to Yang Xiaotao.
During this period, seeing people from various branches of the machinery factory come to help and participate in the production of aircraft, he, the director of the lumber factory, also wanted to contribute and make some contributions.
But more than half a month has passed, and there has been no news about their lumber factory, which makes him anxious and helpless at the same time.
Who told them to be a group of carpenters?
Dealing with steel materials is really not their specialty.
"Lao Zhou, I came to see you to solve something."
"Mr. Yang, just tell me."
Yang Xiaotao led the way to the fuel tank, pointed inside and said, "Try the rivets inside. This point is prominent. We need a smooth surface."
"Think about it. Is there any other connection method that can avoid this situation?"
Zhou Shenghong thought for a while and then smiled, "Mr. Yang, I haven't thought of this for a while. How about I go find someone and let's think about it together?"
"Okay, but we have to hurry, we don't have that much time."
"Don't worry, I'll give you an answer before I get off work tomorrow."
After saying that, Zhou Shenghong turned around and ran out. The speed looked like that of a young man, and you could even feel the excitement in his body.
"I'll leave this to Lao Zhou for the time being. How is the other progress?"
Yang Xiaotao asked Zhang Guanyu again about his progress.
"Mr. Yang, we can basically proceed according to the planned schedule. It is estimated that the entire skeleton will be completed in more than 20 days."
"By the way, you didn't go to the second workshop, did you?"
"No, has the machine tool over there made it?"
Zhang Guanyu nodded, "I went over to take a look when I was leaving last night, and they were assembling it over there."
"It probably happened in the past two days."
"If this machine tool is added, our progress can be further advanced."
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath and said, "Okay, you have to keep track of the progress here, and pay attention to the physical condition of the workers. I heard that Lao Liu and the others came to work even though they were sick?"
"Yes, Lao Liu, Lao Hou, they must be tired and weak, so they fell down when the cool breeze blew at night."
"Comrades, please pay attention to your health and don't be in a hurry."
"good."
Back at the headquarters, Yang Xiaotao picked up the enamel jar on the table and drank half of it.
Then I looked at the surrounding walls and saw that many places on them were covered with information posts.
"Xiao'e, do you have the latest news about Jinling and Jiangling?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Xiaotao glanced at the message on the wall, it was the same as yesterday.
At this time, Lou Xiaoe had cut her hair short for work convenience, and she looked very capable.
"No, it's still yesterday's news."
"Confirm it as soon as possible."
"good."
As he was talking, Mr. Peng walked in from the outside. After seeing Yang Xiaotao, he said, "The alliance is holding a 50-year military parade, and I will be there for a while."
Yang Xiaotao immediately became anxious upon hearing this. President Peng was required to be in charge at this critical moment.
If he leaves, there's no guarantee that someone will be interested in him or even desert him.
Seeing the look on Yang Xiaotao's face, Mr. Peng was helpless.
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
"Besides, Lao Chen is here. If you have any questions, tell him."
Mr. Peng said with relief.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao had no other choice, "When will you leave?"
"Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
"You have to work hard on this matter and never let it go."
"I know. You should also take care of yourself when you go there."
Mr. Peng waved his hand.
After Mr. Peng left, Yang Xiaotao sat in the headquarters, looking at the constantly updated information, picking up a water glass and drinking water.
Under the current situation, he had no other option except urging the local government to speed up the process and ensure quality.
A person is in a daze, lost in thought.
After lunch, Yang Xiaotao continued to collect information in the headquarters, waiting for news from Jinling 14th Institute and Jiangling.
"Xiao Tao!"
Just as I was waiting, I saw Liu Huaimin running in with a smile on his face.
"Old Liu, what's wrong?"
"Good news, good news."
"The Third Aircraft Department said that the wing skins have been made and are about to be shipped here."
"What? Are you sure?"
When Yang Xiaotao heard the news, he immediately stood up from his seat.
"It's true, Lao Zheng from the Three Machinery Department said it himself."
"They have arranged a train and it will be delivered in a short time."
Liu Huaimin said, and Yang Youning, who was not far away, also ran over, "I heard you saying good news from a long way away, and I also have good news here."
"What good news? Tell me quickly?"
Yang Youning saw both of them looking at him, then walked to the wall, checked briefly, and stopped in front of the electricity on the side.
"Good news from Shanghai Mechanical and Electrical Plant. The task has been completed. The things will be loaded onto the truck and delivered tomorrow."
After saying that, he slapped his hand on the wall.
"Electromechanical plant?"
"pretty!"
Yang Xiaotao and Liu Huaimin clapped each other's hands.
"Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu!"
Yang Youning shouted outside, and Liu Lixue ran in after a while, "Director, are you calling me?"
Yang Youning nodded, "Go to the radio room to sing a song to encourage the workers."
Liu Lixue didn't know why, so Liu Huaimin explained, "We have made great progress in our mission, and it's just time to be encouraged and happy."
"Yes, I'll go right away."
Watching Liu Lixue run away, Liu Huaimin looked back at Yang Xiaotao, "You, don't be too stressed."
"Being so serious all day made us both nervous."
Yang Youning also stepped forward, "Old Liu is right, isn't this good news?"
Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "You two are right, it's time for us to harvest."
Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning also laughed after hearing this.
"Let's go, have some drinks this noon, we must have some to celebrate."
As he said that, Yang Youning pulled the two of them out.
In the next two days, as Yang Xiaotao said, good news kept coming.
There are constantly completing tasks and sending materials to the machinery factory.
There are also many who have achieved technological breakthroughs and are not far away from completing their tasks.
The good news kept coming, which greatly encouraged the workers in the machinery factory and worked even harder.
This made Yang Xiaotao himself doubt whether he had been too pessimistic before.
If we follow the current progress, maybe it can be done in advance.
One workshop.
After Yang Xiaotao was called over by Zhang Guanyu, he saw two people getting into the fuel tank of the plane.
"What's going on?"
Yang Xiaotao walked forward. The people inside were busy, and Zhou Shenghong came over quickly.
"Mr. Yang, we are solving the problem of the fuel tank."
"Solution to the fuel tank problem? Have you thought of a solution?"
Yang Xiaotao remembered the serious issue mentioned last time.
Zhou Shenghong immediately introduced to the side, "Mr. Yang, after you said it last time, we went back and immediately organized people to discuss it. In the end, we referred to our ancestors' wooden wedge method, but this time we used alloy materials..."
After Zhou Shenghong introduced the situation, Yang Xiaotao only listened briefly.
But as long as it works.
"So what's going on now?"
"Mr. Yang, we have experimented and this method can meet the requirements."
Zhang Guanyu explained quickly, then pointed to the workers inside and said, "They are reinforcing it inside."
While he was talking, someone came out, wiping the sweat from his forehead and taking off his shoes.
Yang Xiaotao could see clearly that there was an obvious big hole in the sole of the shoe.
Obviously, it cannot move inside and is worn out.
"Mr. Yang, the space here is narrow, and our people can only move around inside."
Zhou Shenghong explained on the side, and Zhang Guanyu added, "Comrades heard that the wings and skin were on the way, so they wanted to finish them quickly."
"Now there are three groups of people rotating."
"This is already the third pair of shoes that are worn out."
Yang Xiaotao listened quietly, and then watched the person who had just changed his shoes get in again.
Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling came to my heart.
