Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry
#90 - The first machine tool goes online
Hydroelectric generators are arguably the simplest type of power generation equipment.
The 50KW unit that Ren Zhong needed to clone had a turbine drive section made of castings, which could be produced in the Bright Sword world.
The core components that truly needed to be manufactured in the main plane were the rare earth permanent magnets on the rotor, high-quality cold-rolled silicon steel sheets, and pure copper enameled wire.
Ren Zhong had already arranged for Honesty Machinery Processing Factory to handle these tasks and brought a set to the Bright Sword world.
Therefore, Ren Zhong needed to manufacture most of the castings in the Bright Sword world. Machine tools and hydroelectric generators were a major test for Ren Zhong.
However, now that this big guy, the machine tool, had been shaped, although the final result had not yet been seen, Ren Zhong felt that it was almost there. After all, he strictly inspected the size and precision of the entire model according to the design requirements, and from the pouring, there were no flaws.
Returning to Yangcun from the side of the blast furnace, Ren Zhong continued to arrange for personnel to manufacture the model, while he began to choose a narrow place in Yangcun to prepare to build a small high dam.
The slowly flowing river water level was raised. According to the flow of this small river, less than 1 cubic meter per second, a head of 8 meters or more was needed for sufficient impact force.
In this way, Ren Zhong needed to build a dam of about 10 meters.
According to the terrain difference in Yangcun, Ren Zhong chose a place 100 meters downstream of the large karst cave with a drop of 5 meters. This way, building a dam of about 5 meters would be enough, greatly reducing the amount of work, and the lower the dam, the lower the risk.
Ren Zhong found someone in the main plane to make a simple design for the dam. Here, there were only buildings mainly made of stone, and even concrete was not available. Ren Zhong used strip stones and clay as the main raw materials to build the dam, and the performance only needed to be usable.
Even if a five-meter dam on a small river were to collapse, the impact on the downstream would not be too great.
The main plane directly designed it as a mode that could directly overflow from above during the flood season, even omitting the flood discharge facilities.
With this design, it was right to leave the remaining tasks to Li Yunlong.
During this period, Lao Li stayed in Yangcun peacefully, on the one hand, doing the wasteland reclamation and planting that Ren Zhong had deployed, and on the other hand, taking on new projects from Ren Zhong from time to time, just in time to exhaust all of Lao Li's abundant energy on these things.
Anyway, after returning from more than a month of wandering in Heyuan, Lao Li's desire to kill the enemy has also weakened a lot. He knows the importance of food. Now, the Independent Regiment is actually living on half-empty stomachs during this time of seasonal change. If they hadn't found some of the little devils' reserve grain by attacking blockhouses and strongholds in Heyuan, the Independent Regiment would not have been able to survive.
Ren Zhong originally watched Bright Sword, and he didn't understand why Li Yunlong wanted to launch the Wild Wolf Valley ambush, but after living with the Independent Regiment for so many days in the field, Ren Zhong understood that many things were forced out.
If they didn't intercept the little devils' supply convoy, the soldiers would not even be able to guarantee their food. The Eighth Route Army's food, drink, and weapons and ammunition were mostly seized from the devils and puppet troops, and they did not receive any supplies from the GMD at all.
The team lacked food and ammunition, and could only rely on hand-to-hand combat to seize living space, which is why they would launch such a cruel battle that would kill three thousand enemies but also lose eight hundred of their own.
If you asked Lao Li to do such a bayonet charge now, would he do it?
Li Yunlong is not a fool. He would bring an reinforced battalion to fight hand-to-hand when a sniper squad of about 30 people or a cavalry company could solve the problem with a few charges?
In a flash, another week passed.
The machine tool and generator castings were all completed.
There were only a few castings for the machine tool. Relatively speaking, the largest base was more difficult to handle, so Ren Zhong put it first. The remaining parts were smaller castings, and the model manufacturing was much faster. The same was true for the generator. After the shell was cast, the remaining parts were small.
Gao Kaiming and the others worked overtime overnight according to the drawings.
They wanted to see the new machine tool running more than anyone else.
People who have not experienced what their generation has experienced cannot fully understand their obsession with an advanced machine tool!
The turbine runner and the generator were installed in place one by one. After carefully checking the wiring connections and ensuring that there were no problems with the wiring.
Ren Zhong raised his hand, "Open the gate and release the water!" The simple wooden gate made of two pieces of wood was laboriously cranked up halfway, and the river water that had been impounded for several days surged down the canal, forming a huge impact force that began to drive the turbine runner to rotate rapidly, and a light bulb connected to the generator immediately lit up!
Power generation was successful!
Immediately afterwards, Gao Kaiming's excited voice came from the large karst cave. "Report to Boss Ren, the machine tool has been successfully started and is undergoing drill bit testing!"
The people on the dam side cheered immediately.
This meant that the hydroelectric generator and the machine tool were successfully tested at one time!
According to the amount of water released, the current hydroelectric generator only has about 20% of its power generation capacity, because the load of the machine tool is only 7.5 KW. Ren Zhong can only control the flow to make the generator output about 8KW. There is no other excess load now, and it will take at least another month before the next machine tool is successful.
However, in the Bright Sword world, the one-time successful production greatly boosted everyone's confidence.
Ren Zhong began to arrange for the mass production of machine tools. The second machine tool was the urgently needed punch press!
This is a key equipment for producing mortar shells. With the machine tool, it is much easier to produce punch presses locally. Although Ren Zhong will inevitably need to bring some high-precision bearings and punch presses from the main plane, the number is not too large.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!
It greatly reduced Ren Zhong's burden of carrying goods. Now Ren Zhong is running at full capacity every day, and if he doesn't bring parts, he brings corn seeds.
After the machine tool came out, Ren Zhong's room for maneuver suddenly expanded. According to his idea, the Type 56 carbine should be put on the agenda.
At this moment, Zhang Wanhe and the brigade commander successively sent the calligraphy and paintings over!
Even if Ren Zhong didn't know the current price of these paintings, he knew that they were valuable. These few paintings alone were worth it!
They were much more valuable than the paintings he had auctioned before.
In order to reduce the impact on the art market in the main plane, Ren Zhong decided to try to sell them privately this time.
He brought the paintings back to the main plane and stored them in a behemoth safe that he bought specifically that could not be moved by manpower at all. Ren Zhong selected a work by Master Beihong and a work by Daqian, took photos, and then contacted Ms. Ma Shuhan, an art company he met at the Hong Kong Island auction.
Second update, all kinds of requests!
