Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 493 This thing is called a computer

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled noncommittally, and looked at the silent Chen Hong.Chen Hong is the most authoritative, and his opinion is relatively important. Niu Xiaoqiang heard it: "Director Chen, you are a veteran in the auto industry. I want to hear your personal opinion. Please speak freely without any What concerns are there?"

Chen Hong worked in a tractor factory before. Don't think that the tractor factory only produces tractors. In addition to tractors, they also produce agricultural vehicles.

Agricultural vehicles belong to the category of light trucks, and the load capacity is generally only a few tons.What Niu Xiaoqiang wants to produce now is heavy trucks. From a technical point of view, the chassis of agricultural vehicles is not the same as that of heavy trucks. There is still a big gap.

Chen Hong's expression looked a bit dignified, and he was not polite, and directly expressed his opinion: "I have built many agricultural vehicles before, and the technical aspects of agricultural vehicles are already very complicated. If it is a heavy-duty vehicle with a load capacity of tens of tons Truck, to be honest, I have no idea, Secretary Niu, I am very curious about one thing, you have never studied the chassis before, I wonder where your confidence comes from?"

This is equivalent to questioning Niu Xiaoqiang face to face.Niu Xiaoqiang knew that Chen Hong was straightforward, so he was not angry, he took out the key and opened the drawer with a smile, took out a document from it and handed it to Chen Hong: "Director Chen, you have some experience in car chassis, come first Help me take a look and see if my preliminary design is reasonable."

Chen Hong and Chen Fanghua were all shocked. They didn't expect that Niu Xiaoqiang had already worked out a preliminary design plan. It seemed that Niu Xiaoqiang was not unprepared.

After staying for a while, Chen Hong opened the folder, lowered his head and watched it carefully.Although Chen Fanghua didn't know chassis technology, he could understand the blueprints, so he also came over to watch.

The drawings drawn by Niu Xiaoqiang are very detailed and fine-tuned, and the design parameters are marked on each line. Anyone who knows mechanical processing, such as Chen Fanghua, can understand it at a glance.

But what they can understand is the specification. As for whether the design is good or bad, they can't understand it.

Chen Fanghua was concerned about the processing difficulty of the design structure. He nodded while looking at it: "The processing difficulty is relatively low. As long as the original blanks are cast, I can process them all in a maximum of two days."

Chen Hong didn't speak, and his face showed a look of surprise and uncertainty.After watching for a long time, he raised his head and looked at Niu Xiaoqiang: "Secretary Niu, have you really never studied car chassis before?"

Niu Xiaoqiang shook his head with a smile: "Of course not. I took a break from my busy schedule and read a lot of books on automobiles. I also carefully thought about the truck that was about to be scrapped in the factory. I have some knowledge about the frame and structure of the chassis. understood."

Chen Hong's eyes widened: "Is this the research you have done?"

"Well, I only have this condition."

Chen Hong stared at Niu Xiaoqiang like a monster: "Then, how did you draw this blueprint?"

Chen Fanghua couldn't help interjecting: "Director Chen, is this design excellent?"

Chen Hong shook his head slightly: "It can't be said to be excellent, but it's not bad either. However, the structure design in a few places is not reasonable, but even so, this is not something that beginners can fiddle with."

Niu Xiaoqiang showed a curious look: "Director Chen, which places are unreasonable in structure?"

Chen Hong turned to the second page, pointed to the drawing and said: "This is the height diagram of the chassis of the truck. If it is produced according to this height, the body will be unstable during driving, especially when turning, it will easily fall apart. Rollover, and here is the structural diagram of the rear axle of the chassis. In technical terms, this is called the hard axle suspension of the rear axle. Although the structure you designed can ensure the reliable load capacity of the vehicle, it ignores the quality of the material. As for the strength issue, as far as I know, we don’t have such high-strength pressure-bearing structure materials in China at present, and we can’t manufacture them unless we purchase them from abroad.”

Niu Xiaoqiang first answered the first question: "Director Chen, the first question does not exist at all. I have done detailed mechanical calculations. With such a high chassis, the truck can only reach a speed of more than [-] kilometers per hour. , and the rollover will only occur when turning a bend of less than [-] degrees. Don’t ignore the purpose of our trucks. They will be used in mines in the future. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for truck drivers to operate like this. In the harsh working environment of mines It’s even less likely that a truck driver will be able to do that.”

"In addition, you can't ignore the size factor of the body. The length of the body I designed is longer than that of ordinary trucks, and the wheelbase is also wider. As the saying goes, a big ship is not afraid of high waves. The same reason, the larger the body, the more stable the chassis. , so I'm not too worried about the first question."

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled when he said this: "As for the material problem, it will be solved by Deputy Factory Manager Zhou, so we don't have to worry about it."

As soon as Chen Hong heard what Niu Xiaoqiang said, he did not show any convincing expression, but retorted: "Secretary Niu, you seemed to say that you just read some books and observed the chassis of the truck, and did not conduct any actual tests. Right? In this case, how can you be sure that the data you calculated is correct?"

Chen Hong originally wanted to say, "Aren't you talking on paper?", but considering that it would be impolite to speak like this, he changed the way he expressed it.

Niu Xiaoqiang understood what Chen Hong meant, and in order to let Chen Hong have a clue, he took out the key and opened the door of the safe.This safe was moved by Niu Xiaoqiang from the finance department. The safe is not big, and it can only store some important documents, not much money.

After opening the cabinet door, Niu Xiaoqiang took out a black case from inside.

From the outside, this thing looked like an enlarged and thickened black brick. The three of them had never seen such a thing before, and they were all at a loss as to what it was.

Fortunately, Niu Xiaoqiang didn't make them wait too long, and quickly gave an answer: "This thing is called a computer, and it is generally called a microcomputer in China, which means a microcomputer. All the data on my design drawings are passed It's calculated."

Chen Fanghua and Zhou Kai don't know much about computers, but Chen Hong does.

He had visited and studied a large state-owned enterprise before, and that large state-owned enterprise newly purchased several foreign CNC machine tools. Very surprised.
