Alpine Orchard

Chapter 582

The small train used in the experiment of Dadong Bamboo Farm worked overtime to build it.

The root system of bamboo is very developed.

The small train track in the bamboo forest is laid at a height of about one meter above the ground, and the pillars used to support the track have to go several meters deep into the ground.

This is more laborious to build, and the track construction site is in the bamboo forest on the hillside.

It took a lot of time to design the track route map before.

The actual construction started in the last few days.

Time passed, and the main track and auxiliary track of the first small train were laid.

The length of the main track is 3.7 kilometers, and the length of the auxiliary track is 11 kilometers, covering an area of ​​2400 mu.

The track was laid, and the front of the small train was brought in. The carriages are all iron frame carriages...

Ye Mo heard about this, went to pick up Li Xuebin early the next morning, and went straight to Dadong Bamboo Farm.

It was past eight in the Dadong Bamboo Farm, and there was a bamboo cutting team in the bamboo farm.

There are 70 bamboo fellers in Dadong Bamboo Farm, divided into 7 teams.

Today, 6 teams of people drove into the area covered by the small train, that is, 60 people...

When Ye Mo and the others came over, they had already heard the sound of the chainsaw.

Small chainsaw, the sound is not particularly loud, especially useful for cutting bamboo.The bamboo was sawed off easily, then divided, tied...

A bundle of bamboo weighs more than 100 kilograms, and two people can carry it.

Some people are dedicated to sawing bamboo, some are responsible for knocking down and dividing the sawed bamboo...some are responsible for binding and carrying bamboo.

The tracks of the little train are on the side of the road.

The small train on the main track has a relatively large front.There are three cars in total, and the length of one car is 5 meters...

The track is designed to bear load, and the three carriages on the main track can theoretically bear more than [-] tons.If you add a compartment, you can ship more.

There is also a lifting device at the head and parking space of the small train, which can lift 500-700 kg of heavy objects.

Having these things can save a lot of manpower on boarding.When loading on the truck, there is no need for a crane to come over, and it can be hoisted directly to the transport vehicle on the small train.Or unload on the ground...

"Mr. Ye, Mr. Li..." Wang Hao was debugging a small train in a stainless steel shed, and when he saw Ye Mo and the others coming, he shouted.

Ye Mo let out an 'hmm'.

Li Xuebin smiled and nodded...

"Dad." Li Shanbei called out, "Brother Ye."

Ye Mo responded with a smile, and said, "Has the little train been tested?"

"Tested yesterday afternoon." Li Shanbei said.

"What are you doing?" Ye Mo looked at Wang Hao.

"Apply butter and maintain it." Wang Hao said: "Huagang has finished the frame of the car and sent it directly. I will apply butter for maintenance."

Huagang is also called a vehicle, and it makes trains.In recent years, it has also produced accessories for cars and large trucks.

Being able to build a train, even a small train, is certainly a no-brainer.

Ye Mo looked at the front of the car, the compartment... Good guy, the materials are really solid.

This is a small train on the main track.

There are two cars running on the auxiliary track on the left and right sides, each car has only one compartment, the front of the car is small, and the body materials are relatively light...

After waiting for Wang Hao to finish, Ye Mo and the others went up to the carriage: "What is the fastest speed of the car?"

"The fastest... 20 kilometers." Wang Hao said: "If the speed is limited, you can't run too fast."

"20 kilometers...is fine," Ye Mo said.

The length of the main track is only 3.7 kilometers, and the whole distance can be run in eleven or twelve minutes.The speed is not fast, but it is also much, much stronger than human power.

Wang Hao started the little train, and the car ran out backwards, and went into the mountain along the track.

The width of the tracks is 1.4 meters and the width of the carriages is two meters.

There are steel pipe guardrails on both sides of the carriage...

On the top of the head are airtight bamboo leaves, and on both sides are densely packed bamboos.

Workers are cutting bamboo on the hillside, and a lot of bundled bamboo has been thrown on both sides of the track.

The main track follows the hillside and circles the mountainside.There are sub-tracks on both sides...

The track here can change track, just like the train track change.But the track is different from the track of the train. The track car used on the hillside can climb up to a maximum slope of [-] degrees. Below the track is a gear structure...

There is a prominent sign at the end of the track.Going further inside is a big steep slope... Even if the track can be built across, the bamboo on the steep slope is not worth cutting down.

The air in the bamboo forest has a little earthy smell.

Xiahe Town is also very hot during this time.The bamboo cutting team came out at six o'clock every day, and worked until ten o'clock...then went out after dinner after six o'clock in the afternoon, and worked until dark.

Cutting bamboo is very hard work.

This early in the morning, the bamboo fellers were sweating profusely.

Back in the bamboo felling area, Li Shanbei directed the workers to hoist the bamboo onto the truck.

Shipping the bamboo was still very fast, Ye Mo looked at the time, and in less than 10 minutes, three carriages were filled.

This efficiency is also OK.

The cost of the small train, how should I put it, is a matter of opinion.

Trains are really expensive.However, there are many bamboos in their bamboo forest, and they are all old bamboos...

Cutting down the [-] mu of bamboo forest here should not be worth the investment of the small train.But it can be regarded as next year's bamboo, and it will definitely pay back.

It is convenient for manpower, the speed of cutting bamboo is fast, and it also saves a lot of manpower cost.

These are equipment investments that can last for 20 years or more.

The small train in the first area is built, and then it is calculated how much labor costs can be saved.If it's worth it, you can invest in...

Ye Mo and the others stayed in Dadong Bamboo Field until noon before going back.

At noon, the small train made a total of 5 trips, and the green bamboo brought back was estimated to be 170 tons.

Cutting bamboo is still very fast, but the slowest thing is transportation.Even with the small train, the speed of transportation is still not as fast as the speed of felling.

A small train needs 5 people.

After being proficient, it should not be a big problem to transport 500 tons a day as long as the logging team can keep up.

This is just the ideal situation...

But I have to admit that with the small train, the cutting speed can indeed be much faster.

Calculated at a price of 400 yuan per ton.

If 300 tons can be transported a day, that is 12.

There are 75 people involved in the work today, and the average daily output per person is 1600 yuan.

500 tons per day may not necessarily be achieved.

But 300 tons per day should not be difficult.

The diesel consumption of the small train is not high, and after a day... more than 1000 yuan is the sky.The fuel consumption of the bamboo cutting team's chainsaw is not very high...

If it is true that most of the bamboo forests are covered by small trains, covering a distance of about 50 meters, then it will be easy to cut bamboo in the future.The bamboo cutting team works hard and earns higher wages.

2400 mu of bamboo forest, with a total of 14.7 kilometers of track laid...

The track covers the left and right sides, which means that the track can be encountered at a distance of about 50 meters.

The bamboo fellers here in Xiahe Town pay more for more work. Depending on the location of the bamboo forest, 1 ton of bamboo ranges from 100 to 300 yuan.If there is a track, it should be able to reach about 150 yuan per ton, and the efficiency of bamboo cutting can also be greatly improved...
