Start with the aviation industry

Chapter 364 Importing CNC machine tools is getting harder and harder

Cai Wenhao hurriedly got up to make tea. He came here a little earlier than Lin Feng. The equipment branch was still in Fenghuang City. He was there most of the time and occasionally came to have a look.

After the tea was brewed, Cai Wenhaohui reported, "According to your request, all technical personnel will come to attend the lectures, nearly 300 people."

So far, the design and development team of CNC machine tools has been initially established, and some personnel will be recruited as needed in the future.

He simply started to report on the current situation of the design and development team.

It is divided into several design offices, and each design office is responsible for obvious differences. Each design office has as few as four or no. 50 people, and as many as seven or no. 80 people.

The only regret is that there is no technical leader for this CNC five-axis machine. I entrusted a headhunting company to find a few people, but Lin Feng was not satisfied.

For the time being, Chen Tianhuo, the technical deputy general manager of the equipment branch, will also be the technical leader of this five-axis linkage CNC machining center.

But this is definitely temporary, and it is necessary to find a professional cutting-edge talent in CNC machining centers.

"The matter of the technical leader must be done as soon as possible. Our five-axis CNC machine will soon start design and development."

Cai Wenhao said, "Boss, don't worry, we will get it done as soon as possible."

The two chatted for a while about work, and soon it was nine o'clock in the morning. Lin Feng got up and said, "Come on, we can go there!"

At this time, the huge training classroom was almost full of people, nearly [-] people, and there were only a few vacant seats in the last row or two.

The classroom is very lively.

"I've been working for so long, and it's the first time I've seen the boss explain the specific design and development to everyone. It's unbelievable!"

"I don't know how Mr. Lin's technical level is. I hope he can tell us something useful!"

"I've heard that Mr. Lin has a very high technical level. I'm curious what he will tell us!"

"..."

In the classroom, everyone has a sentence for you and a sentence for me, and they are discussing enthusiastically.Some people are curious about Lin Feng's identity, and more people are curious about what Lin Feng will say.

Shao Jun and the others arrived earlier, 10 minutes earlier, and occupied a relatively front seat, with two vacant seats beside him.

That was specially reserved by Shao Jun for Lin Feng and the two of them. Even though Lin Feng said that he didn't need to occupy a seat for him, Shao Jun still occupied two.

It was almost time for class, but Lin Feng didn't even appear. Shao Jun wondered why Lin Feng didn't come in yet, it shouldn't be!
He even stood up, looked around and looked around to make sure that Lin Feng was indeed not in the classroom, thinking to himself, this is rather strange.

His colleague next to him said, "Shao Jun, you are occupying a seat for the two people you met just now, it seems that they haven't entered the classroom yet!"

"Yeah, what are they doing?" Shao Jun was at a loss.

"Maybe they have something to do and won't come to the class."

"Impossible, this is Mr. Lin giving us a lecture in person. The notice clearly stated that no one is allowed to be absent. I heard that Mr. Cai will come to attend the lecture."

Some people looked at the vacant seats in the middle of the first row, which were specially reserved for Mr. Cai and the others.

Mr. Lin gave lectures in person, and Cai Wenhao and the others could only sit below as students listening to the lectures, let alone ordinary technicians.

All technicians must come to the lectures, and no leave or absence is allowed!
Shao Jun really couldn't figure it out, where did Lin Feng and the others go, the class was about to start, and there was no one in sight.

At this time, there was movement at the door, some people quickly sat down, and the originally lively training classroom immediately fell silent.

Accompanied by Cai Wenhao and others, Lin Feng walked into the training room.

Everyone is new to the equipment branch, and more than [-]% of them have never seen Lin Feng.

As soon as Lin Feng came in, he immediately attracted everyone's attention. It turned out that he is Mr. Lin, our immediate boss.

Those young female technicians even said in their hearts, Boss Lin is so young and handsome!
Where is Shao Jun?
transfixed!

My God, he is Mr. Lin! ! !
Quietly pinching himself hard, Shao Jun knew that this was not a dream, everything was real.

Lin Feng walked towards the two machines and said loudly, "Today I will tell you about the specific design of this five-axis linkage CNC machining center."

"As for self-introduction, I don't think it's necessary. Everyone should already know our identity as soon as I stand on this podium."

Good-natured laughter resounded throughout the classroom, and Lin Feng's humor immediately shortened the distance with everyone.

After a few simple sentences, Lin Feng opened the prepared slides, and first began to introduce the design features and technical parameters of this five-axis linkage CNC machining center.

Gradually, many people could not calm down, and the classroom gradually became commotion, which seemed a little noisy.

Lin Feng knew what was going on, so he simply stopped and asked loudly, "It seems that everyone has a lot of questions. If you have any doubts in your mind, just ask."

Immediately, someone stood up and said loudly, "Boss Lin, from your point of view, this CNC machining center seems to have been designed!"

Lin Feng replied, "Not yet, but I already have a clear design in my mind, and I have drawn some design drawings myself."

"That is to say, I will build the framework. Every time you start specific design in this framework, I will draw the general design diagram, the general system diagram, and the design drawings of some important and key components. In the usual design process The conference will guide everyone in design and development.”

Oh my God!

Mr. Lin, you are so powerful!
Is this true? If this is the case, then the difficulty of design will plummet!
Seeing everyone's surprise, Lin Feng waved his hand and said, "Come here, hang up this design drawing, and I will explain it to everyone."

A few young technicians came up immediately, and they unfolded the design drawing, and then nailed it to the wall with thumbtacks, displaying it in front of everyone without reservation.

The classroom is boiling!

"This is actually the general design of the machine tool!"

"Is this really drawn by Mr. Lin himself?"

"..."

Seeing everyone's reaction, Lin Feng smiled slightly, everything was expected, it would be strange if there was no reaction.

Combined with this general design drawing and the slides prepared in advance, Lin Feng will tell you the specific design of this five-axis linkage CNC machining center.

After talking for more than two hours without stopping, everyone was completely convinced by Lin Feng. They never expected that their boss's technical level is really high!

It's simply not ordinary!

That’s all for today. In the follow-up design process, Lin Feng will explain some specific designs to you and provide technical guidance.

Accompanied by Cai Wenhao and others, Lin Feng left the training classroom. At this time, the classroom was extremely lively.

"Ah, Boss Lin's technical level is so high, we can only look up to him!"

"Today's harvest is too great, look at our notebook, we have written more than ten pages!"

"The general design drawing, specific design parameters, and design drawings of some important and key components are available, and the subsequent design will not be difficult."

"..."

Everyone has gained a lot, and they are full of confidence in the next design work. Some people even wish to start the design earlier and design this CNC machine tool earlier.

in the conference room.

This is the second day of Lin Feng's lecture. Chen Tianhuo, as well as some design experts, design supervisors, etc., have a meeting together to digest and understand the design of this CNC machining center.

On the table, a design drawing was spread out, and everyone was communicating and discussing.

There are general design drawings and design drawings of some important parts, and even the industrial control chip does not need to be designed. It is designed and developed by Pangu Technology Group, and the operating system of the CNC machine tool has a ready-made framework.

Everything seems to be very simple!

The specific design and development work is in full swing. After absorbing and digesting these designs of Lin Feng, design experts and design supervisors guide everyone to carry out the design.

Phoenix factory.

Several old factory buildings were demolished, and a large area of ​​land was vacated. Some people are clearing and leveling the ground.

Wang Tianfang was wearing a hard hat, followed by several middle and high-level people from the Phoenix Factory. Everyone stood there and looked at the land.

Everyone chatted from time to time, and a modern precision machining center of more than 1 square meters will be built here, which is also the largest project of Phoenix Factory.

A senior executive next to him said, "Mr. Wang, this factory building is completed, and our factory finally has a decent big factory building."

Not only Wang Tianfang, but everyone else beside him nodded, fully agreeing with this point.

The existing factory buildings of Phoenix Factory were all built two to thirty years ago, or even four to fifty years ago. They have a common feature, that is, they are old.

Everyone envied Leihuo Technology Industrial Group.

In addition to envying their products, I also envy the large modern factory buildings. Now that it is finally ready, the Phoenix Factory will also have its first modern factory building.

After seeing it for himself, Wang Tianfang returned to his office satisfied.

The planning and design of the factory building has been completed. He has personally seen it and signed it. In a few days, the factory building will start construction.

In addition to construction, the most important work for this precision machining center is the procurement of equipment.

The list of equipment that needs to be purchased has also been discussed, and more than two-thirds are ordinary domestic equipment.

Such as ordinary lathes, ordinary drilling machines, ordinary grinding machines, etc., but about one third of them are imported CNC equipment.

In the mid-90s, the numerical control rate of aviation industry enterprises was not high, and it was very good to be able to achieve about 30.00%. Of course, Leihuo Technology Industry Group far exceeded this level, and their numerical control rate exceeded 50.00%.

The numerical control rate of the precision machining center in Phoenix Factory will reach about 30.00%, already higher than the average numerical control rate level of domestic aviation industry enterprises.

Among these imported CNC machine tools, three are key CNC equipment. They are all five-axis linkage CNC machining centers. According to Wang Tianfang's vision, they will be world-class five-axis machining centers.

As for the world-class five-axis linkage CNC machining center, they dare not even think about it. Europe, the United States and other countries do not sell it at all, and completely restrict exports.

Leihuo Technology Industry Group has several world-class five-axis linkage CNC machining centers, but it is said that it took a lot of effort to get them back. Wang Tianfang asked himself that Phoenix Factory did not have such channels and capabilities.

Since it is impossible to buy a world-class CNC machining center at all, then the next best thing is to buy a world-class quasi-first-class CNC machining center, and the restrictions on such a CNC machining center are looser.

A few years ago, Phoenix Factory also imported two sets of five-axis linkage CNC machining centers, which were at the world's quasi-first-class level. The center can only be regarded as the world's second-rate level at best.

Even if it is only the world's second-rate level, it is still the treasure of the Phoenix Factory.

Looking at the whole country, such CNC equipment is relatively advanced, because it is impossible to manufacture five-axis linkage CNC machining centers in China, and even three-axis machining centers are still in their infancy.

In fact, Wang Tianfang was a little worried about whether the three five-axis CNC machining centers they needed to import could be bought back.

Sure enough, his worry became a reality. A few days later, Zeng Cheng, the equipment section chief in charge of equipment procurement, entered Wang Tianfang's office with a sad face.

"Mr. Wang, hello."

Wang Tianfang looked at his face and seemed to guess something, and asked, "Is it difficult to purchase equipment?"

After all, there are a total of hundreds of various equipment, among which there are twenty to thirty imported CNC equipment, and some difficulties are expected by Wang Tianfang.

Zeng Cheng sighed, he couldn't speak for a while.

The leader valued him so much and entrusted him to purchase equipment worth hundreds of millions of dollars. As a result, a series of problems occurred now.

"Tell me, what exactly is going on?"

Zeng Cheng sighed again, and had no choice but to say helplessly, "Leader, please criticize me. I have failed your expectations of me. Most of the imported CNC equipment we need have encountered difficulties, and most of them are difficult to buy from abroad. return."

what!
Most of them have encountered difficulties!

This was a bit beyond Wang Tianfang's expectation. He originally thought that the three or five CNC equipment with relatively high precision would encounter some difficulties.

"Tell me quickly, which devices have encountered problems."

Zeng Cheng took out the equipment list, "Leader, the equipment marked with a red pen is currently encountering difficulties, and we will have no way or channel to buy them back in a while."

After receiving the list, Wang Tianfang frowned slightly and looked at it, thinking in his heart, there are so many devices, there are a dozen of them in total.

Those three five-axis linkage CNC machining centers are impressively listed, as well as those precision CNC lathes, and several vertical machining centers
After a long time, Wang Tianfang asked, "Haven't we always had a cooperative equipment import agent, and they have nothing to do."

Zeng Cheng said, "They said that the current situation is different from before. Western countries seem to have tightened their controls on the export of CNC equipment. They don't sell slightly better equipment. What they sell is basically second-rate goods, or They were eliminated."

It is estimated that this kind of numerical control equipment is not a big problem when used for general civilian products, but it is definitely not possible to use it for relatively high-precision military products, such as military aviation engine parts, because the accuracy cannot be achieved.

Wang Tianfang frowned even deeper, and asked, "Is there really no other way? We can increase the agency fee appropriately."

Zeng Cheng said, "I also talked to them about this, but they said that it is very difficult. Even if it is purchased quietly and secretly through a third party, the operability is not strong, and the possibility of buying the equipment back is very small."

Oh okay
Wang Tianfang frowned and thought.

These equipments are necessary, and there is none in China. Domestic machine tool manufacturers also manufacture some ordinary machine tools, such as ordinary lathes, ordinary grinders, and ordinary drilling machines, and basically do not have the ability to produce CNC equipment.

What to do about this? ? ?

Wang Tianfang felt that this problem was very difficult, and he was thinking of countermeasures quickly in his mind, and even thought of whether to ask his superiors for help.

But he knew that if the western countries really strengthened the control over the export of CNC equipment, even if the superiors came forward to use some resources and channels, they might not be able to buy these equipment back.

In addition, asking for help from your superiors at every turn may make your superiors think that your ability is limited, and such things cannot be done well.

Wang Tianfang didn't want his superiors to have such an impression of him, not to mention that he had only been promoted to the head of the Phoenix Factory for a few months.

Just when he felt a little helpless, Zeng Cheng tentatively said, "Leader, I have a suggestion."

Wang Tianfang said, "Say, what is your suggestion?"

Zeng Cheng said, "Leihuo Technology Industrial Group should have some channels and resources. The leader, you have a good personal relationship with Mr. Lin. You can give it a try and see if you can seek Mr. Lin's help."

That's a good suggestion.

Wang Tianfang thought for a while, then raised his hand to check the time, "Then I will go to Leihuo Technology Industrial Group now."

After speaking, he lifted his foot and walked out of the office.

It seems that this matter made Wang Tianfang really anxious, so he immediately went to find Lin Feng to see if Leihuo Technology Industry Group could help him.

At this time, Lin Feng happened to be in the office.

After sitting in front of my computer and typing for more than an hour, I finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved.

The last part of "Harry Potter" was finally finished. So far, a total of five parts have been written, and this book has also come to an end, and the manuscript can be given to Wu Tianhua.

Actually, "Harry Potter" has a total of eight volumes, but Lin Feng is not preparing for the next three volumes for the time being. Let's consider the fifth volume to be the last one. He may write one after another when he has time or is interested. The next three.

After clicking save, Lin Feng thought for a while, picked up the phone and dialed Wu Tianhua, and the connection was made quickly.

"Mr. Wu, calling at this time did not affect your rest."

It's daytime in Phoenix City, but it's already nighttime in Wu Tianhua's side, and it's almost time to go to bed.

Wu Tianhua said, "Not yet, call me at this time, there should be something."

Lin Feng smiled slightly, "Guess what it is!"
