Chapter 310 Construction Efficiency
The huge autonomous robot does not require workers to operate it. The mechanical logic it carries is enough to maintain the operation of this big thing, and allow it to recognize and execute voice commands like the puppet maid next to Purficott.

Especially on this big machine, Perfectcott also specially added a picture recognition function to it.

It can identify any standard engineering design drawings and carry out construction according to the drawings, highlighting simplicity and peace of mind.

But correspondingly, this big machine also requires at least one alchemist and one engineer to maintain it.

After all, this big machine is like the large-scale construction machinery in the original world. They are indeed very powerful and have amazing work efficiency, but the maintenance is also amazing.

Fortunately, Purficot considered the issue of maintenance at the beginning of the design. It adopted a modular design as much as possible in the design of this big machine, simplifying the complex internal structure and making it easier to maintain and use.

But no matter what, an alchemist for troubleshooting and an engineer for solving technical problems are still necessary for this big guy.

This is also the experience accumulated from using the serpentine shield machine before.

When the Serpentine Shield Machine was used to excavate the shelter underground in Fjord Town, various problems were often encountered.

Workers couldn't solve these problems, so they had to call alchemists and engineers to deal with them.

Yes, after Purficott built the large autonomous engineering robot, he put it into the construction of the underground shelter in Fjord Town.

However, with the popularity of fantasy alchemy, Perficott has enough reason to believe that all this will change in the future.

Even the workers themselves had to admit that this one machine was enough to handle the task when they saw that the four mechanical claws of the engineering robot could simultaneously grab building components or huge logs that required several people to lift. There were at least fifty of them.

After all, the work efficiency of robots is by no means comparable to that of ordinary human workers.

The alchemists and engineers, who were tired of the workers shouting because they were shouting so frequently, directly built a small room on the Serpentine Shield fuselage. Two people were assigned to work shifts every day and stayed in that small room to ensure that Able to be available on call.

The existence of engineers and alchemists is still necessary, and in comparison, Perficott prefers highly skilled talents rather than simple labor workers.

When they did this, not only the fault processing speed was enhanced, but also the failure rate was effectively reduced under the inspection of engineers and alchemists.

It has to be said that workers in this era still have certain deficiencies in their overall quality, at least they cannot solve overly complex technical problems.

This big machine played its role very well and rapidly improved the construction progress.

However, the technological level of this world and this era has restricted the development of production relations, so that the industrial structure of this world is still labor-intensive rather than technology-intensive.

Although the internal design height of the underground shelter is not high enough to accommodate this large robot, Perficott considered this at the beginning of the design, so the six legs of this big guy can be folded and retracted.

It can extend any of its six robotic legs to a length of at least thirty meters, and can also fold it into a shorter form less than five meters long.

This provides the robot with extremely high maneuverability and ability to pass through. Even the small working surface of the underground shelter construction site is as smooth as the ground for this robot. Of course, this robot does not follow the tunnel dug by the shield machine like ordinary workers, but like a spider, enters the underground shelter from the shaft reserved for the energy tower.

It uses its six mechanical legs to secure itself in the shaft, and then uses its four mechanical claws to carry out construction.

A large number of prefabricated building components can be easily transported from the ground to the underground shelter by this large spider-like robot, and then workers assist in completing the final assembly with the assistance of mechanical claws.

This saves a lot of labor in the construction of underground shelters. At least those workers no longer need to carry the building components hand-to-hand to the required location, and then waste time and labor to carry out the construction using only simple tools. Assemble.

With the help of robots, they can even complete work that originally took three to five days in one day, and everyone feels more relaxed than before.

This has led many workers to praise this big robot as a "worker's friend".

This made Purficott, who was originally worried that workers would think robots took away their jobs, feel dumbfounded.

However, she feels that her worries are not groundless. After all, it is only a robot assisting in construction, and it does require the assistance of workers to complete some tasks that cannot be directly completed with current robot technology.

After all, this is just a first-generation robot. Although its design has been perfected and has even been praised and recognized by Cuiyulu, this cannot hide the fact that the functions of this robot are still simple and crude.

In other words, what Perficott designed itself is just like a large crane, and it does not have the ability to do fine work.

Although for Purficott, she does have the ability to do this, and she can even design a batch of small engineering robots to specifically replace those workers.

But for the sake of employment rate and social stability, Purficott did not intend to do this.

Appropriate job maintenance is necessary, and replacing all workers with small engineering robots is too costly and cost-effective.

If small engineering robots replace workers, they will only be able to carry out construction 24 hours a day. Other than this, the gap between them and ordinary workers is not big.

If Perfectcott adopted a three-shift work system and put more workers on the construction site, so that they could also work 24 hours a day, the work efficiency gap between the two would not be obvious.

At most, a small engineering robot can complete the work that workers took three days to do in two days.

The consumption of the former is undoubtedly much smaller than that of the latter, and it can also solve the employment problem and increase social stability.

In contrast, Purficott has no reason to replace workers with small engineering robots.

This may be the difference in thinking between lords and technicians. If Perficott was just an ordinary alchemist, she might pursue efficiency more, but as a lord, she had to consider the people under her rule. .
