A nation's industrial development begins with junior engineers.

The next few days were uneventful.

After being reprimanded, Yang Youning's mind was once again filled with some indescribable emptiness, and he arranged production in an orderly manner.

The furnace factory's "assembly line" was filled with veterans, who were busily filling "Happy Sheep" bottles that were about to be sent to the front-line teams.

With the launch of the furnace factory, the manufacturing process and personnel of the water pump well were directly inherited. With the assistance of mechanical devices, the furnace heating system began to spread from various office buildings to the general public.

The factory's installation team was extremely busy. Occasionally, when the veterans wanted to go out for a walk, they would go out with the factory's furnace installation team to keep watch.

The motorcycle factory next door, seeing the bright red tricycles coming and going, wanted to come up and cause trouble, but when they saw the people sitting inside, they shrank back.

After visiting the engine production workshop, the three big bears finally calmed down.

After all, the fact that the engine could still start normally after the internal parts were replaced was a task that Factory 112 could not accomplish.

They wouldn't even dare to think about taking parts from one Dongfeng-103 (J-6) and installing them on another.

If you're honest, just study hard; there's nothing shameful about it.

Li Huaide's "merger plan" is also going very smoothly. On the one hand, others may not understand what "Fan Shusheng" is doing, but his coworkers in the factory know exactly what he is doing. On the other hand, the steel rolling mill is currently riding high and has offended the pump factory of the entire machine department. Without thinking twice, they want to latch onto this "big brother".

Taking advantage of the reorganization of the Ministry of Machine Building, Li Huaide quietly completed the transformation of the pump factory's identity by carrying the official document allowing the steel rolling mill to set up a branch factory and a consent form signed by all the workers of the pump factory.

The former factory director, Comrade Fan Jin, showed no dissatisfaction whatsoever; on the contrary, he was relieved to be relieved of his position.

Having transformed into an ordinary engineer at a steel rolling mill, he happily studied the blueprints for 25MN hydraulic free forging given to him by Jiang Xia.

Factory Director Fan's son also joined the furnace system installation team as a technician, and he paid extra attention to the maintenance work at the textile factory.

Jiang Xia, the deputy head of the R&D department, now has his first like-minded colleague.

This gave him ample time to play with his "shit welding".

It's 6 yuan now!

This is the result of Xiao Jiang's hard work over the past few days.

Q: According to the schematics, a DRAM requires at least 3000 transistors, and each transistor needs to be paired with a capacitor to achieve the combination of "0 and 1".

There are 6000 components to be soldered, not counting various interfaces and wires.

Now, in Jiangxia, 100 components can be soldered onto a single circuit board.

How many boards are needed?

Oh, that's just for DRAM; the remaining 3000 CPUs aren't included in that count.

Xiao Jiang was in tears.

Unfortunately, it's not easy to call for outside help with this, and he had promised Old Li at his hideout that he would try not to show these transistors to outsiders.

That'll take forever to solder. In a few more years, those brilliant minds will have already invented the transistor computer themselves.

Hey!

Let's fix it! If manual labor doesn't work, we'll use machinery.

What is used for large-scale circuit welding again?

Ultrasonic welding? Automatic carrier tape welding?

Tsk, you're overthinking it.

By the way, wave soldering, um, no need for a dual wave soldering machine, a single wave soldering machine will do.

It's done. The relevant circuitry on the air fryer can also be used.

The system didn't provide any blueprints for this thing, but with Fan Jin, a water pump expert, the two of them managed to tinker with it and come up with some design blueprints.

Wave soldering sounds sophisticated, but it's actually just heating solder until it melts, then using an industrial pump to create waves, and a conveyor belt to bring the relevant components on the insulating board into contact with the molten solder to achieve welding.

We have the conveyor belt and the pump; now all we need is a temperature controller to monitor the temperature of the solder.

This thing also exists, but it's quite bulky and requires a thermocouple to operate. Plus, you have to disassemble it yourself.

Yes, that's right. This temperature control device came from a small electric stove sent from Shijingshan.

But it's okay, the small electric stove isn't in use yet. It's just a lot of disassembly and repair work, isn't that what junkyard workers do?

The temperature control system, consisting of a platinum-rhodium-platinum thermocouple and an EWY-001 electronic automatic potentiometer, was a great help to Jiangxia.

Harbin Songjiang Instrument Factory YYDS!

When all the necessary components are in place, assembling a machine is that simple. The only downside is the high cost; a single platinum-rhodium/platinum thermocouple can cost over a thousand dollars.

Yes, the milling machine whose machine body was seized by Jiangxia is crying its heart out.

But assembling the machine is one thing, whether it can be used is another.

Looking at the thick layer of tin at the bottom of the insulating board, which resembled a tortoise shell, Jiang Xia wondered if his scanner was broken.

"They're all green, so why is there a turtle shell showing?"

Ha, the machine is fine, so why is the scanner flashing red?

Then adjust the parameters. The peaks are too large, and the screen is too overly submerged. Raise the conveyor belt a bit more and replace it with a pump with a lower power.

Let's do it again, and hey, guess what?

Yes, it's still a rat's tail.

This is utterly useless! The transistor would explode the moment it's powered on!

There was no other way but to call in someone. Little Jiang Xia isn't omniscient, and Old Liu from the Ministry of Machinery has a deep understanding of electrical engineering. Asking him a couple of questions wouldn't be too much of a problem, would it?

Jiang Xia shook his slightly dizzy head and told Tie Jun and Factory Director Fan to continue the experiment. He then went to his office to make a phone call.

After much effort, I managed to get through to Mr. Liu via telephone operator. Before we could exchange more than a few words, Secretary Liu, who had rushed to the factory office, invited me to the factory office meeting room.

"The people who came were from the logistics department. They didn't look too good. The one leading them was the team leader who came to recycle the tungsten alloy a while ago."

Jiang Xia was on a business trip in Jinan at the time and had no idea what was going on: "So?"

"Hey, I guess they came to ask you to do one of those machining centers. Rumor has it their boss was furious!"

"Making another one is not out of the question, but we can't work for free."

Jiang Xia, whose head was spinning from wave soldering, was in a bad mood.

Factory office meeting room.

The logistics department still had the same few people, except for Deputy Team Leader Zhou, who was absent. In addition, there were a few more elderly people with gray hair.

Team Leader Wen was somewhat embarrassed when he arrived again.

In his view, with the blueprints and no shortage of master craftsmen, and with the logistics department having ample manpower, it would be a loss of face for the logistics department if they didn't produce seventeen or eighteen units.

Unfortunately, copying the blueprints from the Ministry of Machine Building alone kept the relevant personnel busy for three days straight without sleep.

Looking at the blueprints for half a room, Team Leader Wen's heart skipped a beat.

This scene seems familiar, doesn't it?

After the blueprints were moved back and an emergency meeting was held with relevant personnel, Team Leader Wen's heart sank to the bottom of the sea.

"This machining center can be considered a top-of-the-line precision instrument. How could it be made with just blueprints?"

"Putting everything else aside, the way these shafts work together is enough for us to study for a while!"

"Mechanical things are not made according to precision, and it is considered a success just because they are put together."

The master craftsmen in the logistics department took the blueprints and quickly came to a conclusion.

Team Leader Wen had a sudden realization: these words sounded so familiar. That's right, they were spoken by the aviation expert who came to provide support!

The older brother provided a set of blueprints for an aero-engine. After the logistics department painstakingly pieced it together, the Russian who came to guide the work pointed at the aero-engine with disdain and said: "It's not as simple as just putting the parts together!"

"If you want us to force it, we can do it, but we need to keep trying and learning from our mistakes. Give us three years."

A master craftsman gritted his teeth: "These blueprints are so detailed, they must have cost a fortune. But it's well worth it! With them, the logistics department's processing capabilities will at least take a leap forward!"

Team Leader Wen twitched his lips. The logistics department had lost face. Was the price too high?
