Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 58

New discoveries have been made in the existing power battery technology, which has lifted Zhong Cheng's spirits, but research and verification cannot be carried out immediately.

Because the daily project is too important, and now the project implementation is a race against time, it is impossible for him to spend time on other things.

He could only keep this longing in his heart and hurry up to complete the daily project.

He hoped that the sooner the better!

Two days later, he, Zhao Wei, and Liu Yuzhu moved to the shed on the project site, and their computers and experimental equipment in the laboratory were also moved to a special room in the shed.

In the next few years, the project site will be their entire living and working space.

Zhong Cheng is used to such a fulfilling lifestyle, besides work, he still works.

He laughed at himself and said that he is earning a net income now, he does not smoke or drink, the board and lodging are all provided by the public, and the daily necessities are provided by the public. With the military uniform, he does not even need to buy clothes.

Money is saved for one cent, without reduction.

Parents are not short of money now, so he doesn't understand what he saves the money for?
to consume?He didn't want to waste this time.

Improve living conditions?He feels that he is very satisfied with the room and board now.

Buy yourself a house?Director Qian said that as long as he gets married, he will give him a house.

Prove your social worth?He has a better way of proving it.

Maybe it's because I have too little knowledge, which limits my imagination!
But Zhao Wei said that he had too little desire.

He does not agree, in fact, he has a lot of desires:

Let Huaxia's factories use Huaxia's machine tools;

Let Huaxia's cars run on the land of Huaxia;

Let all the planes flying in the sky of Huaxia be Huaxia;

Let there be no warships from other countries in China's oceans;

Let China's heavy industry support China's sky;
Let the Chinese nation re-emerge in the east of the world, no longer look at other people's eyes.

……

Of course, there is still an extravagant wish, which is to marry a wife like Ye Wenxin!

……

The power battery special team of Daily Engineering was formally established.

Zheng Yilun is the team leader, in charge of factory planning and construction, Zhong Cheng is the deputy team leader, and is also the chief engineer, responsible for technical guidance and implementation. Chen Qiang, Zhang Jiaxing, Zhao Wei, Liu Yuzhu and others are team members with their own responsibilities.

At present, the power battery factory is under intense civil construction. There are not many places that need their guidance in this regard, and professional construction personnel are in charge.

Their most important work now is to transform the production of battery materials in the laboratory, the production of other battery components, assembly processes, and testing methods into industrial mass production processes, and design and manufacture or order special equipment.

For example, Zhong Cheng used a small device similar to an electric pressure cooker for the pressurization equipment in the laboratory, but for mass production, a special large pressure vessel with a diameter of eight meters and a height of more than 30 meters is required, and the technical difficulty involved is not the same. And language.

This work is very heavy and very important, and it must be completed before the infrastructure project is completed, otherwise, the layout of the factory building and the arrangement of pipelines and circuits will not be able to proceed.

And before these tasks are completed, the factory's production equipment must be manufactured in advance and sent to the site, otherwise it will waste time waiting.

The manufacturing cycle of large-scale chemical equipment is very long, and it is normal for a few months or even a year or two.

Zhong Cheng already knew from the daily engineering meetings he participated in that the power battery factory construction is the longest project in the entire electric car factory construction, and it is also the most uncontrollable project.

As an automobile manufacturing company, Red Star has a lot of experience in other projects, but it is blank in power batteries alone.

The most likely problem is the power battery pack.

Although Zhong Cheng was under a lot of pressure, fortunately, the three of Zheng Yilun were experts in chemical engineering, and Chen Qiang was originally in charge of design work in a large chemical equipment manufacturing plant in the military.

With their help, the process and equipment design work of the power battery factory has progressed rapidly.

In June, it is midsummer, and the weather starts to be hot.

The foundation of the power battery factory has been laid, and the construction of the factory has started.

Zhong Cheng and the others also completed the process and equipment design work before this, and have sent the equipment drawings to Chen Qiang's original large-scale chemical equipment manufacturer-Northwest Chemical Complete Equipment Company.

However, the reply they received was that their requirements were too high, which could not be achieved with the existing technology of Northwest Chemical.

This news made the special team feel like being struck by lightning. If the equipment cannot be manufactured, the consequences will be disastrous.

As for lowering the requirements, Zhong Cheng did some calculations, from re-verifying the parameters in the laboratory to redesigning the equipment, three or four months may not be enough, and it may not be successful.

Looking for another company to order?
Northwest Chemical is already the best complete set of chemical equipment manufacturing company in China, unless you go to a foreign company.

Finding a foreign company means that the core technology of the power battery factory may be leaked, and no one dares to take this risk.

In response to everyone's doubts, Chen Qiang explained with a pale face that he only thought about how to meet the technical requirements, but never thought that it could not be manufactured.

In fact, Chen Qiang is not to blame. Those who engage in research and development usually do not understand the manufacturing process and always want to design the most advanced things, often ignoring that some unremarkable parts cannot be manufactured at all.

In the failed projects of the R&D Institute, Zhong Chengcheng found that there were too many such precedents, but if such things fell on this project, it would be fatal.

This project can't afford to fail!

After discussion, they decided that the only feasible solution at present is to send someone to Northwest Chemical to communicate with their on-site engineers to see if there is a solution.

There is nothing to say about the candidates, of course Zhong Cheng and Chen Qiang went.

Without further ado, Zhong Cheng set off with Chen Qiang that day, and Zheng Yilun was responsible for explaining their whereabouts to the promotion committee.

The two drove a military jeep and headed north.

Today's military jeeps are no longer the canvas-cloaked vehicles in previous movies. They are similar to off-road vehicles, but they have greater power and speed than civilian off-road vehicles, but they are less comfortable.

Chen Qiang had a driver's license, but Zhong Cheng did not. In order to hurry, Zhong Cheng had to drive without a license in violation of traffic rules.

It took him less than half an hour to learn to drive.

He was very excited to drive a vehicle for the first time. Except when he was entering the city, he was driving all by himself, and he never got tired of it.

These four-wheeled cars are more powerful than two-wheeled bicycles!

The two drove across the majestic mountains in the north of Southwest Province, entered the ravine-ridden Huangni Plateau in Northwest Province, and finally arrived at the vast and desolate Gobi region in Qinggan Province.

The great rivers and mountains of the motherland made Zhong Cheng feel relieved, and his worries about the trip were also relieved a lot.

The next afternoon, the two arrived at their destination, the Northwest Chemical Complete Equipment Company located on the outskirts of Qinggan Province.

This is also a super-large military enterprise. Zhong Cheng took a rough look and found that it covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of acres and probably has more than 10,000+ employees.

Chen Qiang explained that the production of complete sets of chemical equipment is not affordable for small companies. The investment is more terrifying than that of the automobile industry, but the benefits are not ideal.

The leaders of Northwest Chemical did not expect that they would come so soon in person and greeted them warmly.

Zhong Cheng declined the invitation to discuss in the meeting room, and asked Chen Qiang to take him directly to the design department of Northwest Chemical.

The design department assigned a process design engineer surnamed Lin to communicate with them. Chen Qiang said that this forest worker is the most powerful process designer in Northwest Chemical.

The three exchanged the situation in the design room. Lin Gong pointed out that the equipment drawings they sent had no problems in the manufacturing process. The problem was that the precision requirements of some key connecting parts, sealing parts and transmission parts were too high. The level of machining can't be manufactured at all.

If the accuracy of these components is reduced, the performance of this set of equipment will be greatly reduced, so they dare not take this "business".

When Zhong Cheng heard this, he was greatly relieved. If it was a machining problem, it would be easy to handle.

With the Nuwa industrial master machine in hand, he is full of confidence!
