Chapter 2235 Fuel Tank
September 9, 1967.
There are 80 days left before the mission time.
Hongxing Machinery Factory, workshop one.
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 should be easy.
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 fuel tank of the aircraft 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 temperature 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 be in strict accordance with the design regulations, and it can be made to fit perfectly after it is finally put in.
As for titanium-rhenium alloy, although the output is not large, when is it not used at this time?
"Mr. Yang, it is very simple to process the outer layer of the fuel tank."
"But it is a bit difficult to put the inner layer in and make it fit 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, this connection is a problem."
"According to what you said, the aircraft connections this time are all hot riveting. Our comrade I 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 nearby, "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 bulge inside.
"Mr. Yang, there are a lot of these protrusions. If we follow our design, these protrusions will hinder when the inner layer goes in."
Yang Xiaotao stood up, and then Looking 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 grind it flat."
Wang Xushan gave his opinion, but Zhang Guanyu shook his head after hearing this, "If it's ground flat, how can it be fixed?" ?”
Qin Ming said from the side, “So when linking, it’s better to punch it in.”
“This is not the way!”
< br>
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 clear the wood." Director Zhou Shenghong of the factory came to find him."
The guards outside immediately ran out.
"Old Zhou knows a lot about this, let's listen to his opinion."
A few 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 of people helped in the machinery factory, and the other group was responsible for the operation of the lumber factory.
It rotates once a month and is well arranged.
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?"
Zhou Shenghong 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 wood 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.
"Old Zhou, I have come to see you to solve something."
"Mr. Yang, just tell me."
Yang Xiaotao led him to the fuel tank, pointed inside and said, "Try the rivets inside. This point is prominent. We need a smooth surface."
"Think of a way, is there anything else?" The connection method can avoid this situation."
Zhou Shenghong thought on the side. After a while, he smiled and said, "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 be quick, let's I 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.
"This is left 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 ”
"No, the machine tool over there has been made?"
Zhang Guanyu nodded, "I went over to take a look when I left last night, and they were assembling it over there."
"I guess It happened in the past two days.”
“If so. With the addition of this machine tool, our progress can be further advanced."
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, "Okay, you have to control the progress here, and pay attention to the physical condition of the workers. I heard that Lao Liu and the others went to work even though they were sick?”
"Yes, Lao Liu and Lao Hou must be tired and weak, so they fell down as soon as the cool breeze blew at night."
"Comrades, please pay attention to your health and don't rush."
< br>"Okay."
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. Many places on them were already covered with information posts.
"Xiao'e, do you have the latest news about Jinling and Jiangling?"
Yang Xiaotao glanced at the information on the wall, which was the same as yesterday.
At this time, Lou Xiaoe has cut her hair into short hair for the convenience of work, and she looks very capable.
"No, it's still yesterday's news." "Confirm it as soon as possible."
"Okay."
As he said this, 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 when he heard this. Mr. Peng must 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, just 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 things here and never let them go."
"I know. You should also pay attention to your health when you go there."< br>
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 but to urge 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!”
While 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 skin of the wing has been made and is about to go here Shipping."
"What? Are you sure?"
When Yang Xiaotao heard the news, he stood up from his seat.
"Really, Lao Zheng from the Third Machinery Department said it himself."
"They have arranged the train and it will not take long to deliver it."
Liu Huaimin said, not far away Yang Youning also ran over, "I heard it from far away You guys said good news, I have good news too.”
“What good news?”
Yang Youning saw both of them looking at him, and then walked to the wall. After a brief inspection, he stopped in front of the electric power station nearby.
"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.
"Mechanical and electrical factory?"
"Beautiful!"
Yang Xiaotao and Liu Huaimin clapped each other's hands.
"Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu!"
Yang Youning shouted to the outside, and Liu Lixue ran in after a while, "Director, are you calling me?"
Yang Youning nodded, "Go to the broadcast sing songs in the room and play drums for the workers "Good news."
Liu Lixue didn't know why, so Liu Huaimin explained, "We have made great progress in our mission. It's just time to be encouraged and happy."
"Yes, I'll go right away."< br>
Watching Liu Lixue run away, Liu Huaimin looked back at Yang Xiaotao, "You, don't be too stressed."
"Being so serious all day long made us both nervous."
Yang Youning also stepped forward, " Lao Liu is right, isn’t this good news?”
Yang Xiaotao smiled, “You two are right, it’s time for us to harvest.”
Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning both laughed after hearing this.
"Let's go, have some drinks this noon, we must drink 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 tasks completed and materials sent to the machinery factory.
There are also many people 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 harder.
This made Yang Xiaotao himself doubt whether he had been too pessimistic before.
If we follow the current progress, maybe we can make it in advance.
One workshop.
After Yang Xiaotao was called over by Zhang Guanyu, he saw two people drilled into the fuel tank of the plane.
"What's going on?"
Yang Xiaotao stepped forward. The people inside were busy, and Zhou Shenghong came over quickly.
"Mr. Yang, we are solving the problem of the fuel tank."
"Solving the problem of the fuel tank? Have you come up with a solution?"
Yang Xiaotao remembered the strictness mentioned last time question.
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."
< br>After Zhou Shenghong introduced the situation, Yang Xiaotao only listened briefly.
But as long as it works.
"What is the situation 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 moved out and took off his shoes while wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Yang Xiaotao could see clearly that there was an obvious big hole in the sole.
Obviously, it was worn out due to the inability to move inside.
"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 skins 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.
