The lay-up volume of new carbon fiber composite materials is getting larger and larger, and soon exceeds the largest standards ever achieved by the Aerospace Materials Research Institute.
Peng Zhengge and Gao Wei are looking forward to it more and more. The current level indicates that this technology has surpassed their semi-machine lamination technology!
On the projection surface, nearly one-third of the display work has been completed. Lu Zixin took a step forward, and the virtual projection unfolded again, decomposing and displaying the structure of the carbon fiber composite material laminate. Through the projection, they could clearly see that the angles and material weaves of each curved surface were formed in one piece, without any breaks or curved surfaces. Angle deviation.
Anderson took a deep breath, the craftsmanship of this machine was really amazing. Even their Honeywell International machines can’t do this!
And according to people from Hongxin Group, this new type of carbon fiber composite material has better performance than the carbon fiber composite material they synthesized, further improving performance and reducing specific gravity.
For commercial large aircraft, this means that it can replace more aluminum alloy and titanium alloy parts, reduce the weight of the aircraft, and thereby increase the load capacity of the aircraft.
The weave layup work continues, with a wing carbon fiber composite layup slowly forming. On the projection, the red unfinished parts are gradually replaced by the green completed parts, until the machine notifies: "The working procedure has been completed, the automatic detection is completed, and the product is qualified. Please click to view the detailed parameters."
The machine beeping finished, but except for the people from the Hongxin Group, everyone else was stunned.
Gao Wei and the materials research team he led were overwhelmed by the surprise. They had been studying this thing for more than a day or two. Before the establishment of China Commercial Aircraft Corporation, the Aeronautical Materials Research Institute was already engaged in the research and development of carbon fiber composite materials. Before today, their technological progress could only produce small-volume carbon fiber composite materials.
But now, they actually have a complete new carbon fiber composite manufacturing technology, as well as a fully automatic machine for large-volume lamination!
Yesterday they were still toddlers in this field, but today they have become long-distance running champions! How could this huge change not surprise them
Peng Zhengge was also ecstatic. Sure enough, the decision to cooperate with Hongxin was extremely correct. Even if there is nothing else, this technology and machine alone will give them huge gains! What's more, the benefits brought by the red letter are not the only ones!
When Anderson saw this scene, he felt chilled in his heart! Yes, carbon fiber composite materials account for a large proportion of their company’s aerospace material exports, which have previously been monopolized by a few giants from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia. Now that another Huaxia has entered the game, the market competition will become even more intense!
Moreover, their materials and technology seem to be better and higher than what the company currently has!
Gao Wei reacted first. He began to check various parameters and compare them with the already designed data parameters of the large aircraft wing. Sure enough, within the allowable error range, they all passed!
"That's great!" Gao Wei couldn't help but say, "It's not bad at all from the parameters we designed!"
"Fully automatic material synthesis, filament laying, and lamination! This can be regarded as the world's top carbon fiber composite material manufacturing and lamination technology, right?" Researchers from the Materials Research Institute exclaimed.
"Mr. Lu, your company really opened my eyes!" Peng Zhengge was all smiles. On the first day of formal technical exchange with Hongxin Group, he solved a big problem, which made him feel extremely happy.
"It seems that your company really does not need to purchase carbon fiber composite materials." Anderson smiled a little reluctantly, directly losing an order of tens of millions of dollars, and his heart was bleeding.
But this is no longer a problem that his business skills can solve, this is a technical problem. Even the company's headquarters can't do anything about it.
Lu Zixin smiled and said: "The new carbon fiber composite material is just one of our technical cooperation projects. There are also several important material technologies that we will also communicate with China Commercial Aircraft Company."
"And!" Hearing these words, Anderson's heart was completely cold. Orders have already shrunk significantly. If they shrink even further, this business may not be possible in the future!
"Hahahaha!" Peng Zhengge couldn't help laughing and said: "Then I'm really looking forward to it, Mr. Lu, and these material experts, on behalf of the entire Huaxia Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Company, I would like to express my gratitude and welcome to you. I’m treating you tonight to take care of you all!”
"By the way, Mr. Fergus, I would also like to invite you to attend the banquet."
How could Anderson Fugus be in the mood to attend their celebration banquet? He forced out a smile and said, "Thank you, Mr. Peng, for your kindness, but I still have some work to finish tonight, and the headquarters has been urging me. ,Very sorry."
"In this case, I won't force it. Mr. Fogus, we have to study the purchase order carefully and discuss it in two days." Peng Zhengge is no longer in a hurry. With Hongxin Group He is very confident in providing technical support.
If it continues to be delayed now, the only one who is anxious is Honeywell International! And they will have bargaining capital.
At the wine table in the evening, Peng Zhengge drank to his heart's content. Even a researcher like Gao Wei, who usually didn't drink, took advantage of the joy to drink a few more drinks while constantly asking Zhang Ming and Zhong Bing questions.
Fortunately, these two are robots and will not get bored. Otherwise, most people would not be able to bear the academic exchange meeting with one meal.
The next day, everyone woke up from their drunken state in the afternoon. Lu Zixin's genes have been enhanced and his metabolism is strong, so alcohol has long been broken down. Needless to say, the two robots had no problem with being drunk.
Before Peng Zhengge and others woke up, Lu Zixin had already taken them around the Aeronautical Materials Research Institute.
"In addition to new carbon fiber composite materials, in terms of materials, we also need to deal with aviation fiberglass materials, titanium aluminum alloys, etc."
"Aviation systems, now they are cooperating with United Technologies Corporation and UTC Aerospace Systems. They can bring people from Hongxin Intelligent Systems over to jointly develop their own aerospace system."
Lu Zixin explained, “The most important thing right now is to solve the biggest technical problem of large aircraft, the aero engine.”
In terms of engine technology, Pengyun Machinery has a certain foundation, but aviation engines and automobile engines are different. An aeroengine is required to bring a large aircraft weighing dozens of tons into the sky for stable flight, and its power and safety requirements are almost the most stringent!
Fortunately, Lu Zixin also has technical information on aero engines. He plans to use another robot to lead the research and development of aero engines.
Zhang Ming and Zhong Bing also play an important role in this, because the most important thing in making an aero engine is the metal material of the aero engine! This aspect is also a technical problem faced by the aviation technology community.
