Chapter 1226 Research and Development Center
R & D Center.
Geng Zhuzi and Li Tiedan and other craftsmen are constantly adjusting the steam engine production line.
On their way back to Hanzhong, Bai Feng and Cao Jie.
Tengzhuzi has already completed the construction of the steam engine production line in the R&D center.
And two days ago, the steam engine production line had officially started production.
But this is the first time that all the craftsmen at Tongzhu and the R&D Center have tried to use the production line model to produce steam engines.
And this production line model was provided by Bai Feng to Gengzhuzi.
Therefore, when the steam engine production line started producing steam engines on the first day, problems continued to occur.
Geng Zhuzi, who encountered difficulties, did not choose to wait until Bai Feng returned to Hanzhong before asking Bai Feng for advice on how to improve the steam engine production line.
He led the craftsmen in the R&D center and began to analyze and improve every aspect of the entire steam engine production line.
After improvements by plowing pillars and craftsmen, the steam engine production line began to produce parts for various parts of the steam engine the next day.
But during assembly, new problems arose again.
That is the steam engine parts produced on the production line, and the yield rate is too low.
Of course, Gengzhuzi has not yet coined the term yield rate.
He discovered that when the various parts were combined into a complete steam engine.
The operation situation of a successfully assembled steam engine is obviously different from that of the first steam engine.
After a thorough inspection, craftsmen such as Geng Zhuzi and Li Tiedan discovered that there were large errors in the steam engine parts produced on the production line.
Therefore, after the assembly is completed, various problems will always occur when the steam engine is started to operate.
After discovering the source of the problem, craftsmen at Plowing Pillars and the R&D Center began working to solve the problem.
After constant thinking and discussion, the craftsmen in Gengzhuli and the R&D center agreed that the steam engine parts produced from the production line must undergo a more precise round of polishing before they can be truly used.
Currently, the craftsmen who lead the R&D center are improving the molds for casting steam engines.
This allows the cast steam engine parts to more closely conform to the standards and reduce the time required for polishing.
When Bai Feng came to the R&D center, the craftsmen at Ceng Zhuzhu and the R&D center were busy improving the casting molds.
"Hanzhonghou!"
"Hanzhong Hou is back!"
When the craftsmen in the R&D center saw Bai Feng, they all greeted him excitedly.
Bai Feng also smiled and nodded to the craftsmen in the R&D center, and then came to the side of Geng Zhuzhu.
"Is the steam engine production line ready for manufacturing now?"
"Reporting to Sir, the steam engine production line has been completed, but the molds for casting steam engine parts still need further improvement."
Facing Bai Feng's inquiry, Geng Zhuzi began to tell Bai Feng one by one about the steam engine production line during this period.
Half an hour later.
Bai Feng had learned about the entire steam engine production line from Geng Zhuzhu.
"Very well, you and everyone else did a great job!"
After Bai Feng learned that the mold improvement had begun, he happily said to Zhu Zhu.
Plowing Pillar plans to complete the improvement of the casting mold in about five days.
At that time, the entire steam engine production line can ensure the stable production of qualified steam engines.
"Sir, after the molds for steam engine parts are improved, it is expected that the entire steam engine production line can produce one steam engine per day!"
Geng Zhuzhu then said to Bai Feng.
The output of one steam engine per day is already considered a high output for Bai Feng.
This is still limited by steel and manpower, otherwise the output of steam engines could be doubled.
However, Bai Feng is not very pursuing increasing the output of steam engines now.
Because what is about to start next is the manufacture of steam trains.
Now only by manufacturing steam trains can the value of steam engines be maximized.
Wait until the steam train is successfully built.
The entire mineral resources in Yizhou can be transported to Hanzhong by steam train.
At that time, the manufacturing speed of steam engines and steam trains can be increased again.
As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools.
"Very good, then you will lead the craftsmen in the R&D center to completely build the steam engine production line."
"Then I will give you the drawings of the steam train."
"The next main task of the R&D center is to manufacture the steam train as quickly as possible!"
After Bai Feng encouraged Guo Zhuzhu, he handed over more important tasks to Guo Zhuzhu.
Geng Zhuzhu also felt very excited after hearing this.
The steam train was what he really wanted to create. He wanted to make the steam train that Bai Feng had described to him before really run on the land of Wei.
"Sir, please rest assured that the steam engine production line will be officially put into production in five days!"
With the steam train as power, there is more energy to plow the pillars.
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for your good news!"
Bai Feng is also very optimistic about Geng Zhuzi's attitude. He believes in Geng Zhuzi's ability and also believes in Geng Zhuzi's guarantee to him.
"Regarding the problem of manpower in the R&D center, I plan to find time to go to Yizhou in the next two days to recruit talents for the R&D center."
At this time, Bai Feng also remembered that Geng Zhuzi had told him through Liuli about some problems that the R&D center was facing now.
Bai Feng planned to solve this manpower problem for Geng Zhuzi in the shortest time.
After all, only when the R&D center has sufficient craftsmen can the manufacturing speed of steam locomotives be increased.
"Okay, sir, do you need me to go to Yizhou with you this time?"
The craftsmen recruited by the R&D center before were screened by Bai Feng and Geng Zhuzi together, so Geng Zhuzi asked Bai Feng this time.
After thinking about it, Bai Feng said to Geng Zhuzi:
"This time, I will go to Yizhou to recruit craftsmen, and then after these craftsmen arrive at the R&D center, you will screen and keep the right craftsmen."
"Otherwise, if you and I go to Yizhou together, I am afraid that it will delay the progress of the R&D center."
Bai Feng finally decided to go to Yizhou to recruit craftsmen for the R&D center.
"Okay, sir, I understand."
After listening to Bai Feng's explanation, Geng Zhuzi also understood Bai Feng's concerns, so he did not ask to go to Yizhou with Bai Feng to recruit craftsmen.
After Bai Feng explained the next things to Geng Zhuzi, he encouraged the craftsmen in the R&D center again and promised to give them rewards during the Chinese New Year this year.
Amid the cheers of the craftsmen, Bai Feng left the R&D center.
