Chapter 241 Dormitory Building
The essence of CNC machine tools lies in high rigidity and high precision.
Li Yang planned to use the then advanced cast iron bed, and then quench it to remove stress and improve strength and stability;
The workbench is made of high-strength castings and equipped with precision ball screws, which ensures smooth movement and precise positioning.
The spindle is equipped with precision bearings, which can rotate consistently and without vibration even at high speeds.
In addition, guide rail protection, lead screw dust protection, and voltage and frequency stabilizing power supply are all marked one by one on Li Yang's design drawings without any omissions.
"As long as all these are achieved and automatic control is added, the overall performance of this milling machine will be extraordinary!"
Li Yang held up the drawing, looking very excited and proud.
He could already imagine how surprised and happy the workers would be when his "darling" was born.
The dawn of the CNC era is about to shine into this thriving steel plant!
Just when Li Yang was immersed in beautiful fantasies, someone knocked on the office door.
"Deputy Section Chief Li, Secretary Zhang and other leaders are here to inspect the Joint Technology Center and would like to report to you!" Xiao Liu poked his head in and said respectfully.
"Okay, I'll be right there!"
Li Yang quickly stood up, picked up the blueprint, and walked out with big strides.
……
When Li Yang arrived at the United Technology Center building, he saw Secretary Zhang and other leaders visiting the building with great interest.
"Wow, this is incredible! We finally have our own scientific research palace!" Secretary Zhang looked around and sighed sincerely.
The newly completed building is tall, spacious and well-equipped. It is like a small science and technology city!
Each laboratory and testing center is built according to the most advanced standards and equipped with first-class instruments and equipment, which is very impressive.
"Now it's good. I don't have to look at other people's eyes and beg for help to get equipment! I can do it if I want. Why worry about not being able to make a difference?" said a deputy.
The factory director said excitedly that he is full of expectations for the future.
Others also nodded and spoke highly of this base that will lead the factory to new heights.
Just as everyone was enjoying the visit, a researcher came running over and whispered to Secretary Zhang:
"Deputy Section Chief Li is here. He is waiting for you in the conference room."
"Okay, let's go!" Secretary Zhang was overjoyed when he heard this, and led a group of people towards the meeting room.
As soon as we entered the room, we saw Li Yang standing in front of a large table covered with drawings and materials. When he saw everyone coming in, he hurried forward and began to report on the progress of the new project.
"Dear leaders, our Joint Technology Center is still under renovation, but our scientific research work has never been slowed down!"
Li Yang came straight to the point.
"Take CNC milling machines for example. This is an evergreen in the machine tool family and has a wide range of uses, whether it is mold manufacturing or precision parts processing, it can be of great use!"
Li Yang pointed at the drawings while talking, talking nonstop:
"It's a pity that the milling machines we have now are either imported or imitation. They rely on manual operation and cannot meet the precision requirements. This problem has long been a headache for our workers!"
"So, I was thinking, why don't we just make a CNC milling machine ourselves? How about using the most advanced CNC system to completely free our hands and improve processing efficiency and precision? Isn't this a good idea?"
Li Yang was so excited that he danced and explained the advantages of CNC milling machines vividly.
The leaders present were all infected by his passion, their eyes sparkled and they nodded repeatedly.
"That makes sense! CNC machine tools represent the future of manufacturing. We should make one. That's exactly what I want!" Secretary Zhang clapped his hands in approval and was the first to express his support. Others also started talking at once:
"As expected of Section Chief Li, you have a good vision! If this succeeds, it will be the first of its kind in China!"
"That's right. By then, the provincial government and the ministry will praise our factory to the skies, right?"
"Chief Li, tell me, what is missing from this project? How can we help?"
For a moment, the atmosphere in the conference room was warm and harmonious. Everyone talked about the bright future of CNC milling machines.
Li Yang was delighted to see this. With the strong support of the leaders, the implementation of the project has the strongest guarantee!
But he thought again, it seems that there is still something missing...
That’s right! It’s talent and logistical support!
"Dear leaders, although CNC milling machines have a bright future, their development cycle is long and their technology is difficult. At that time, the researchers in our technical center will have to work hard day and night."
Li Yang had a solemn expression on his face, and every word he spoke was precious.
"Do you think we can build a few more dormitory buildings around the factory? It would be best if they were equipped with complete living facilities so that everyone can eat and live in the factory. In this way, when we are working on scientific research, we can be on call at any time, which will improve efficiency and help keep confidentiality. What do you think of this proposal?"
As Li Yang spoke, he had already picked up a pen and started to add and modify the layout of the dormitory area. He began to mark one by one according to the layout of college dormitories in the 1980s.
"First, dormitories should be divided into male and female areas, and mixed living is strictly prohibited. Public toilets should be set up on each floor, equipped with showers, laundry rooms and water rooms..."
"There are four people in one dormitory, with bunk beds and a private balcony. Each room has a reserved interface for installing a telephone, and there is a public telephone booth in the corridor...
"In the lobby on the first floor, there is a duty room and a guard room, which are on duty 24 hours a day, guarding the entrances and exits. Cameras are installed on each floor to ensure no blind spots and prevent outsiders from sneaking in.
While Li Yang was thinking about it, he drew quickly on the paper and gradually outlined a blueprint for a dormitory area with a modern feel.
The leaders came forward and vied to watch. They were all stunned and speechless for a long time.
They never dreamed that the workers' dormitory could be built so grand and so humane!
Even Secretary Zhang, who is usually well-informed, was surprised by this design.
Although the factory reconstruction plan that Li Yang submitted previously had already made him aware of the young man's abilities.
But the dormitory area planning in front of us, whether it is the overall layout or the detailed design, has reached a new height!
"Li Yang, my dear!" Secretary Zhang murmured to himself, his eyes full of surprise and admiration.
"You have a really unique brain! With your energy, if you were placed in an architectural design institute, you would be considered a promising talent!"
"No, no, Secretary, you are too kind. I am just offering my humble opinion for the development of our factory."
Hearing the praise from his old leader, Li Yang scratched his head embarrassedly and quickly said modestly.
In fact, he knew in his heart that the design of this dormitory area was commonplace in his era and nothing special.
At most, it borrowed the style of contemporary university student apartments, combined with the actual situation of the factory, and made some minor adjustments.
But in the 1960s, such a layout and configuration was unheard of and unthinkable!
After all, in the era of material scarcity, even a toilet and a fluorescent lamp were luxuries for ordinary workers.
Not to mention the "new gadgets" like private bathrooms, public telephones, and surveillance cameras!
The leaders looked at each other in disbelief.
"Chief Li, your design is quite novel and advanced, but where does our factory get so much money? Besides, will people be able to live in such a luxurious house? Will they think we are showing off?" the chief engineer asked hesitantly, revealing some worry.
Others also echoed the view that although this plan is good, it is still somewhat "out of touch with reality" and may be difficult to achieve.
Facing everyone's doubts, Li Yang was confident and calm.
