Chapter 279 Large Machine Tool

After a discussion, we came to the conclusion that we should continue to increase investment in prosthetics. Such a project is a good project for disabled people in society that benefits the country and the people, and we cannot retreat in this harvest season.

Unbeknownst to Li Zhenhua, his prosthetic limb project had continued to receive attention from the military. It can be said that he doesn't have to worry about it from now on. The only thing that needs him is manufacturing.

At this time, he found Liu Xiaodong and Guo Shugui, and together they discussed the subsequent mass production of prosthetic limbs.

For the production of prosthetics, the three of them decided to establish a new company under the Jiuzhou Divine Beast Group, called Jiuzhou Divine Beast Human Medical Auxiliary Equipment Production Company.

As for the specific company structure issues, Liu Xiaodong and Guo Shugui were in charge, so he didn't have to intervene. The area where he needs to change his hands is in the production model. This is the main problem that needs to be solved.

Prosthetics actually need to be customized. After all, everyone has different body shapes and different missing parts. So although there are fixed templates for manufacturing, there are always differences.

Now that we are going to carry out large-scale production, the customized model will definitely face the problem of high prices for prostheses. If such prices remain high, it will not be conducive to promotion at all, and it will also prevent the majority of disabled people from benefiting.

The advantage of making it a high-end product is that Kyushu Divine Beast can make a lot of money, but they, Kyushu Divine Beast, are not short of money now, and after discussion, the three of them unanimously decided on this prosthetic limb project. Their company guarantees not to lose money. , try to set the price as low as possible.

Therefore, what needs to be solved urgently now is the problem of prosthetic limb production, and how to do it so that it can be suitable for mass production.

As for this problem, neither Liu Xiaodong nor Guo Shugui could help, so he had to deal with it himself.

He returned to the workshop, threw himself on the sofa, and then started using his brain that he had not used for more than two months.

The solution that finally came to his mind was to determine the standard size, just like clothing size, divide the mechanical prosthesis into many parts, and then make these parts into different sizes.

For example, if a person loses his arm, and then chooses the size of the prosthetic arm based on the person's data, although it cannot completely match the missing part, it will be about the same size, which solves the problem of large-scale production. The problem.

With a solution, everything would be easier to handle. Then he summoned all the people who were previously responsible for the production of prosthetic limbs and announced his ideas. The work of determining the size was left to these people. .

Although the company has decided to take the path of large-scale production, it still has not blocked the road of customization, and still provides customized prosthetic services to disabled people who are not short of money.

That is to say, if you want to install a prosthetic limb, but you are dissatisfied with large-scale production of products, you can choose high-end customization, which is completely customized according to the customer's human body data, so that the customer can get a more matching prosthetic limb.

After the plan was finalized, he handed over the next work to the person in charge of the project. After that, Li Zhenhua finally separated the bottom of the car from the prosthetic limb.

After finishing this project last night, he was completely idle, but he had been idle for two months before, but he didn't want to stay idle like this, and the large machine tool project that he didn't have enough time to do before was taken over by him. It's on the agenda.

When planning a large machine tool, the first thing to solve is the design of the new machine tool. Good design also determines the accuracy and efficiency of the machine tool.

And this plan is extremely huge. This time it is not just about designing one machine tool, but many models, including lathes, drilling machines, milling machines, planers, grinders, and boring machines. This is a series of machine tool designs.

After laying these foundations, we need to design CNC machine tools on top of them, and finally create a high-precision machining center. This is the ultimate goal.

But now he does not plan to start from the basic airport, but to follow the top-down research and development process from high-end to low-end, directly working on the high-precision machining center in one step.

Everything in today's society is moving toward intelligence, and this is also true in the field of machine tools. Although machine tools are built with human hands, machines do have an advantage over humans in terms of stability at certain times.

According to past experience, when Li Zhenhua makes something, he usually has to dismantle it into pieces first. Only after he has a sufficient understanding of the thing, he will start to do it.

The same goes for the machine tools this time. They were dismantled first and then designed and manufactured, which is particularly in line with his consistent style.

At this moment, in the virtual laboratory, there is a square array of machining centers in front of him, with a total number of twenty-five. These CNC machining centers, which he has arranged like a military parade, are what he is about to carry out next. Disassembled.

He came into contact with these machine tools when he visited the Aerospace Industry Group. It is the highest-precision and largest vertical machining center that he has come across so far. It can process workpieces with a diameter of eight meters.

It can be said that this is an important tool of the country. It is not easy to manufacture such a large machining center, not to mention ensuring its ultra-high precision. This kind of machining center also has a name, called five-axis linkage high-speed gantry machining center. .

The workpieces that this machining center can process are all oversized workpieces with high precision, so he set his sights on this product category as soon as he started.

As long as this large-scale research is thorough, subsequent scale-down research can be carried out on a basic basis to form a series of high-precision machining centers.

He materialized an aircraft in the virtual laboratory. This was the tool he used to assist in the disassembly, and he himself also put on a set of powered exoskeletons. Even though he was in a virtual laboratory, the powered exoskeletons were also The speed of disassembly is greatly increased.

This five-axis linkage high-speed gantry machining center with huge size, complex structure and extremely high machining accuracy was dismantled in his hands. As he dismantled it, he also learned about this machining center. enough understanding.

And it's not just limited to understanding, the parameters of each component have also been collected by the analytical eye he developed, and formed into drawings. Even the metal of each component is no exception, all are marked on the drawings.

Now he only needs to find the processing tools and enough materials with these drawings, and he can hand-draw it out in reality. Moreover, the machining center he made out by hand is estimated to be even more accurate than the original prototype. .

This is only the first machine tool of this kind that he has dismantled in the virtual laboratory. With the second and third machines, he has disassembled more and more, and his understanding of this kind of machine tool has become deeper. , and also learned from the disassembly what the shortcomings of this machine tool are.

When he dismantled the tenth machine, he had already made a draft in his mind. Which shortcomings needed to be corrected, which points needed to be enlarged, and whether the total power of the machine tool was appropriate. He had done all these. Know it well.

After he dismantled all the 5*5 machine tool squares, the ideal large-scale five-axis linkage gantry machining center in his mind was also formed. With an idea in mind, he started drawing the drawings and already included various details in it. What kind of metal should be used for the parts is all within the scope of his design.

All the drawings clearly mark each part of the machine tool in every detail. As long as you hold such drawings outside, any large machine tool factory can produce them. Of course, since there is no humanoid machine tool like Li Zhenhua, then Precision can be touching.

After drawing all the drawings of the machine tool, he started with the materials and optimized them according to the existing machine tool materials to make them more in line with the conditions of the machine tool he designed.

When he creates a material, one advantage is often optimized, but the disadvantages are increased a lot. In many cases, he can only start the experiment again. Fortunately, it is conducted in a virtual laboratory, which allows him to have Plenty of time and materials to experiment with.

Otherwise, according to his research and development model, if he does this in reality, even with the size of the Kyushu mythical beast, it is estimated that it will not last long.

It can be seen that the research and development of this material is a top priority subject in a country. It is often the most basic thing and costs the most money and time.

With the virtual laboratory as the backing to support him, many of his ideas on materials have the possibility to be implemented. Even if he fails, it doesn't matter.

Because he was in the virtual laboratory and was not even afraid of a furnace explosion. He was killed once, and it was not like he had never been killed before. When he first learned to fly a plane, he had experienced many ways to die.

After a lot of time and experimentation, he finally figured out all the materials to be used on the machine tool. Not only the materials for the machine tool, but also the cutting tool materials to be used on the machine tool, he also made them with his own hands. .

The materials he has developed now will cause a big uproar in the outside world. In fact, the basic materials he has developed now have very good performance, many types, and are relatively simple to manufacture.

The availability of these materials will also be a great benefit to various industries in Kyushu. It allows industries where many materials are not up to standard to make products even better.

Closer to home, after getting all the materials, he began to develop this ultra-large five-axis linkage gantry machining center.

Starting from the simplest machine tool base, and then moving on to various other parts of the machine tool, they are all manufactured with the highest precision he has today.

As for the power of the machine tool, he chose electricity. As for the electric motor, he also had technical reserves. When he was studying electric vehicles before, he had studied electric motors intensively. It can be said that he should not be too familiar with electric motors.

In his opinion, the power of this machine tool can meet the power needs of the machine tool as long as he makes some modifications to the electric motor he used in the car before.

And his idea of ​​​​power is to work hard to achieve miracles, regardless of whether there is excess power, as long as the power meets the standards, as for excess power, he does not consider it at all.

Therefore, he specially equipped this large machining center with a main power box composed of six specially manufactured 480kw, 652 horsepower electric motors, with a total power of 2880kw, 3912 horsepower.

Even so, he also designed room for improvement in power. The manufacturer can upgrade the main power box according to actual needs. As long as the number of electric motors the manufacturer wants to purchase is completely decided by the manufacturer.

Because of such strong power, he not only reinforced the main shaft, but also reinforced all the components involved in the power. The machine tool he designed looks so strong in appearance.

But it is only strong, but not bloated, because it has also optimized its appearance and designed lightweight design in some areas that do not require so much strength.

Just like this, in the virtual laboratory, he manufactured the components required for the machining center bit by bit. After all the parts were manufactured, he assembled all the parts together with the help of the gantry crane and the powered exoskeleton.

The machining center he has designed and manufactured now is only the first version. It has not yet undergone a lot of experiments. The manufacturing of this machine tool has only completed the first step.

In the following time, he used a lot of time in the virtual laboratory to conduct actual production experiments on it. It can be said that even if the machining center is a little unreasonable, he will conduct special research on it.

In short, he wants to optimize all the weaknesses found. According to his design concept, it is estimated that this machining center will be the most powerful machining center the moment the design is completed.

With his unremitting efforts, he produced one version of the machining center after another. When optimizing, he also put the new machining center to practical use, using the previous version of the machining center to manufacture the next version. Component.

Such optimization of one-version manufacturing also saved him a lot of trouble in the manufacturing process. It was almost as if he found weaknesses during use. Before the next version was finished, some of the weaknesses of the previous version were exposed, and then he optimized it again.

This is only an action on the hardware, and the control software also operates like the hardware.

The control software he created at the beginning was very bloated, the files were extremely large, it ran slowly, and the procedures were very complex and cumbersome. After his optimization, the control program is slowly slimming down.

The final control program can be said to be the ultimate optimization that he can currently perform. In addition to being written in the English language, this software program can be said to have complete copyright.

He himself was in the virtual laboratory for the research and development of this machining center. He didn't know how long it took to develop it. He couldn't even remember it, but in reality it took him a total of one and a half months.

Not only did he get into the virtual laboratory at night, but even during the day, he spent most of his time in the workshop.

Through his unremitting efforts and the possibility of cheating, the design of this machining center was finally brought to its most perfect state at this stage.
