Chapter 965: Insufficient Production Capacity
After leaving the office, Yang Xiaotao came to the R&D Department.
There were not many people in the room, most of them were producing punch machines in the warehouse.
Or just maintain the machine tool.
Now, these two machine tools are the pride of the steel rolling mill, and even more the pride of the R&D department.
Haven't you seen other factories that can't make it even if they have the drawings?
This is what the R&D department of the steel rolling mill is all about.
"Director."
Yang Xiaotao walked in, and Zhang Guanyu, who was sorting information in the room, immediately stepped forward.
“Where are they?”
"We've all gone to the warehouse. If something happens, can I call them?"
"No!"
Yang Xiaotao stopped Zhang Guanyu and then handed over the drawing in his hand.
Zhang Guanyu stepped forward to take it and looked at the drawings.
"You happen to be here. Here are the drawings for the milling machine. You can help organize them and divide the work. We will go to the warehouse together in the afternoon and make money as soon as possible."
Zhang Guanyu picked up the drawing and looked at it carefully for a while, shock suddenly appeared on his face.
He was sure that there were traces of their technical department on this drawing, but not much.
And if Yang Xiaotao can take it out, it means that this drawing is accurate and correct.
This is a conclusion proved by Yang Xiaotao with facts, and it is also a fact recognized by the technical department and even the entire steel rolling mill.
There are no problems with the design drawings made by Yang Xiaotao.
However, looking at the few shadows, Zhang Guanyu felt depressed.
This only shows that the design done by their technical department is far from accurate.
I even thought that Yang Xiaotao alone was worthy of the Integrated Technology Department!
"What's wrong?"
While Zhang Guanyu was stunned, Yang Xiaotao saw that he didn't respond, so he asked.
Zhang Guanyu came to his senses and shook his head, "No, no problem."
"Okay, I need it in the afternoon, so hurry up."
"Okay!"
After that, Yang Xiaotao After leaving the R&D department, Zhang Guanyu convened people to start sorting out drawings and distributing tasks.
After leaving the R&D Department, Yang Xiaotao did not go back to the office, but went to the tractor production workshop.
When I was at work, I met Wang Fa and said that the diesel engine had been made and was about to be tested.
Yang Xiaotao also wants to take a look and solve any problems in time.
Although the design is good, there is a long way to go in converting the design drawings into real objects.
When he arrived at the workshop, Yang Xiaotao was called aside by Wang Fa.
Although many people in the workshop already knew about the diesel engine, they were warned not to spread the word, so not many people knew about it.
When he arrived at the side of the workshop, Yang Xiaotao saw seven or eight people working there.
Going forward to check, I saw a half-meter iron box in the middle, propped up on a shelf, and several people around were adding parts to it.
When Yang Xiaotao came, he didn’t step forward to interfere, and just watched from the side.
"How long has this machine been used?"
Wang Fa looked at the busy people, "It took five days to study the drawings, and when it was done, the parts were made in two days."
"Because of the punch machine used, the cylinder can be made quickly, but only the piston is slow. It is troublesome to make it one by one."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "The milling machine has been designed and will be used soon. I will install three of them in the workshop, which should be enough.”
Wang Fa was overjoyed when he heard this. He is also a member of the diesel engine production team and knows how many things are in this small piston.
Watch covers, connecting rods, piston pins, piston rings, small tiles, oil rings and gas rings, a lot of gadgets are not only troublesome to make, but also require high precision.
And this is just a piston, part of the engine. In addition, there are water tanks, fuel tanks, motors, air filters and so on!
If it weren't for the fact that people like myself were advanced fitters, it would have been pretty good to be able to do it in the past two days.
Even so, they cannot guarantee that they will do it well every time.
It’s really, really messy.
And the materials used are also different, some use cast iron, some use aluminum alloy, and some use steel directly.
I don’t know how Yang Xiaotao came up with such a comprehensive idea when he designed this. This brain just works.
If you are an ordinary person, who can think of so many things and the uses of so many things? Materials used in so many things? And the performance?
Wang Fa was still thinking, and Yang Xiaotao looked at the parts that were about to take shape and asked, "Brother Wang, if you have a milling machine, how many do you think you can make in a day?"
Wang Fa was stunned when he heard this, and then frowned.
"To be honest, if this is made according to the tractor production line method, and if you are skilled in using three milling machines, it will be more than a hundred a day."
Yang Xiaotao listened to this answer and was surprised. Not satisfied.
According to his budget, if the workshop uses machine tools, in addition to the production of other parts of the tractor, the Eleventh Workshop can form at least three lines, and the output of each line must be 100 units per day.
“Are there any difficulties?”
As soon as Wang Fa heard what Yang Xiaotao said, he knew that he was not satisfied with the answer.
In fact, he also knew that if a diesel engine was built, he would not say anything else. Not only would the Red Star tractors produced in the steel rolling mill need to use diesel tractors, but the tractors in the auto repair shop would also need to be replaced.
One hundred units, even the tractors coming off the production line of the steel rolling mill, are just enough. If you want to take care of the auto repair shop and use them for replacement, it is a bit slow.
"The main problem is the performance of the porters."
After Wang Fa finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao frowned and remembered the problem he had been ignoring.
Humans, not machines.
It is impossible for a person to work twenty-four hours a day. Even if it lasts for eight hours, only one or two of these eight hours can maintain a normal level.
After this time, the human body's endurance reaches the threshold and its ability will decrease.
This is true even when operating machine tools.
“Now, only a few people can take turns operating the machine tool together, but the punch machine is better. With the mold, basically the workers can adapt.”
“But the milling machine, you also know, That thing cannot be operated by just one person."
Yang Xiaotao nodded silently, Wang Fa also frowned and thought about a solution, and both of them looked at it calmly.
After a while, several more people came behind me.
Yang Xiaotao looked back and saw that it was Yang Youning and Wang Fa.
"Okay?"
Yang Youning stepped forward and asked, with a smile on his face.
“Soon!”
Yang Xiaotao replied, without much joy in his voice.
Yang Youning heard something was wrong in his words and asked what was going on. Yang Xiaotao expressed his previous concerns, and Yang Youning frowned after hearing this.
“If we cannot bring out the results quickly, we cannot fill this gap as soon as possible.”
“It is very likely that we will have to send it out again!”
Yang Xiaotao whispered beside Yang Youning.
Just imagine, the domestic gap is so big, it is not as technically difficult as machine tools, and there is such an urgent demand.
When the steel rolling mill cannot meet the demand, it will most likely be done by other mills.
Yang Youning's expression changed, and the joy just now dissipated.
“Is there any solution?”
Yang Xiaotao shook his head and said nothing.
Wang Guodong next to him listened and said, "Unless we add more people and equipment!"
"Treating the symptoms, not the root cause! How many people are there?"
Yang Youning refused, "And what's the deal with the newcomers? "Use, if there is no one above level three, who can do it?"
Wang Guodong kept silent.
“As for equipment, we already have punch machines and milling machines are about to be launched. There will be more and more machines in the future, but do we have that many people to operate the machines?”
Yang Xiaotao nodded aside, this was also what he was worried about.
Although Yang Youning knows the crux of the problem, there is really no good way to solve it.
Unless the efficiency of the machines is improved and the skills of the workers are strengthened.
But when you think about so many tractors, their steel rolling mill only has one workshop, which is really not enough.
A few people were silent and waiting.
Before lunch, the installation work of the diesel engine was finally completed.
Guo Liang was doing final inspections on the side.
Yang Youning, Yang Xiaotao and others are not thinking about anything else. After all, this diesel engine is the first time for their steel rolling mill.
Yang Youning even came to ask how to use it, while Yang Xiaotao was holding the processed handle and spinning it constantly.
Such a rocker requires specialized personnel to produce, and it consumes a lot of money.
Next to him, Wang Guodong saw Yang Xiaotao holding the rocking handle and was about to go over to prepare himself. However, Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "Uncle Wang, this thing is no joke."
"Maybe it's not good, but it can be smashed. "On the face."
"You think I haven't used it before. This is what those small cars used."
Wang Guodong said as he picked up the handle. , walked up to the front and waited.
"Factory director, after checking, there is no problem with the assembly of all parts."
Guo Liang checked, and the drawings in his mind matched the actual objects.
Yang Youning stepped aside and let Yang Xiaotao step forward.
It’s better to let him make the final decision on this matter.
Yang Xiaotao put on his glasses and walked around the diesel engine, then stayed there for a while, tapping here and there, and then quickly came to the side and nodded.
“Come on, add water!”
Wang Fa, who heard the instructions from the side, immediately asked someone to add the prepared diesel and water.
As the fuel tank is opened, diesel is slowly injected.
Finally close the lid.
Wang Guodong took the crank handle from the worker and stepped forward.
"Director, let me do it."
Wang Hao walked over, who knew whether this thing would explode.
Don’t do this pressure cooker thing again.
“Go, go, go!”
Wang Guodong said nonchalantly and walked forward, with Yang Xiaotao standing beside him.
“Aim this hole, and I’ll turn on the accelerator for you!”
"No, I'll do it myself. How powerful can this be?"
Wang Guodong asked Yang Xiaotao to stay away, preferably as far away as possible.
Then aim at the rocking hole, lift the accelerator with your left hand, and shake it hard.
As the crank handle rotates, it drives the rotating shaft inside the diesel engine, and a long sound comes. At the other end, driven by the crankshaft, the heavy flywheel rotates rapidly.
“Get up!”
As Wang Guodong's hand became faster and faster, he shouted loudly the next second, pressed down quickly with his left hand, and then turned twice with force.
Dong dong dong dong
The next second, the diesel engine made a thumping sound, and then a plume of black smoke came out of the chimney, while the flywheel on the side rotated rapidly.
"Okay!"
Next to him, Yang Youning immediately waved his fist and roared loudly.
The workers who were responsible for the construction together hugged each other.
The sound lasted for a long time. A workshop worker not far away heard it and quickly put down his work.
Yang Xiaotao stepped forward to check and found that the diesel engine was running normally. Then he opened the gas pedal and saw gray-black smoke. Coming out of the chimney, it smelled like chicken.
Looking at the flywheel, as the throttle increases or decreases, the speed becomes faster and slower.
"Xiao Tao, what do you think, try putting it on the tractor?"
Yang Youning became excited and wished he could load it into the car now and take it out for a spin.
But Yang Xiaotao thought for a moment and shook his head.
"Director, this diesel engine still needs to continue to test the data. It is not too late to test after the performance reaches the standard."
"Yes, yes, I am too anxious."
“However, being able to make a diesel engine is already amazing.”
Having said this, Yang Youning looked at Wang Fa and the others, "Comrades, on behalf of the leaders of the steel rolling mill, I would like to thank you all for your hard work. The diesel engine you have built will be displayed at the memorial of the steel rolling mill." In the hall, it has become an important road sign for the steel rolling mill in the field of diesel engine construction.” It's time to get rewarded.
Although the drawings were designed by Yang Xiaotao and most of the credit goes to Yang Xiaotao, it is not easy to get the credit.
How many people can’t even get the glory?
"Xiao Wang, go find the camera, we want to take a group photo."
Yang Youning said that he remembered something again, and quickly asked Wang Hao to take the photo.
After the photos were taken, Yang Youning allowed Yang Xiaotao and others to go to the canteen to eat, leaving a few others to continue inspecting the diesel engine.
