Chapter 940: Return to Vladivostok (6)
The Far East Automobile Factory was built after the end of the industrial conference, and the development direction of power machinery was determined at the industrial conference, and the future is mainly to develop a power system based on steam power and supplemented by internal combustion engine power.
The main purpose of the Standing Committee and members of the Board of Directors in Vladivostok was to inspect and inspect several newly developed vehicles and machinery from the newly established Cavern Automobile Factory.
These include three steam-powered tractors with 25 horsepower, 75 horsepower, and 110 horsepower, as well as walk-behind tractors powered by 12 and 15 horsepower single-cylinder diesel, and three-wheeled agricultural vehicles with 20 horsepower single-cylinder diesel engines.
Far East Power Research Institute has also developed a series of agricultural machinery and equipment using these vehicles as a platform. Including agricultural trenchers, mouldboard ploughs, disc ploughs, rotary tillers, nail harrows, paddy field harrows, cultivators, seeders, planters and seedling machinery.
There are also a variety of small construction machinery, including bulldozers, excavators, loaders, cranes, road rollers, concrete mixers, levelers, ballast cleaners, dump trucks, scrapers and other construction equipment.
These are some of the equipment developed by the Far East Machinery Plant in recent years, but because there is no reliable platform, these equipment has not been produced. Originally, these devices were intended to be installed in the future company's internal combustion engine-powered cars and tractors, but due to the slow progress of the company's internal combustion engine research and development, the company could only develop a mature steam power system in advance, as the company's initial vehicle and machinery power system, as soon as possible.
The Far East Engine Plant was built relatively early, initially as an enterprise that assembled steam engines using the standard components of modern society. Due to the gradual popularity of steam engines in the Far Eastern Company, the demand for steam engines in the company gradually increased.
The company invested some resources and entrusted the Far East Power Research Institute with a large-scale expansion of the engine plant. With the company more and more steam engines. Moreover, the Power Research Institute has successfully developed the mass production of several diesel engines, and the Far East Engine Plant has gradually embarked on the right track and developed into a relatively large enterprise in the Far East.
At present, several workshops of the engine plant are constantly producing various steam units, extremely simple equipment. Including steam generators, steam pump units, steam conveyor belts and so on. At present, many of the power equipment in the workshops of major enterprises in the Far East are driven by steam power, which makes people feel like they have come to the steam age.
In addition to these big businesses. There is also an inconspicuous enterprise that plays a very important role in the Far East, that is, the Far East Hardware Mold Factory. The mold is a tool used to make the blank into a workpiece with a specific shape and size under the action of external force in the forming and processing of modern industrial blanking, forming stamping, die forging, cold heading, extrusion, powder metallurgy parts pressing, pressure casting, and compression molding or injection molding of engineering plastics, rubber, ceramics and other products. It plays an important role in modern industrial production and is known as the "mother of industry".
The development of modern industrial products and the improvement of the technical level depend to a large extent on the development level of the mold industry, so the mold industry will play an increasingly important role in the development of the national economy and society. The weakness of the mold industry will seriously affect the change of industrial product modeling and the development of new products. The level of mold manufacturing and the quality of the mold play a decisive role in the accuracy, margin, productivity, cost and utilization rate of advanced equipment.
Timely supply of molds and their quality. It directly affects the quality, cost and development of new products. Therefore, the level of mold production is one of the important indicators of the level of machinery manufacturing.
The mold is basically produced in a single piece, and its shape is complex, and it has high requirements for structural strength, stiffness, surface hardness, surface roughness and machining accuracy, so the production of the mold has very high technical requirements.
Among the internal employees of Far Eastern Company, there are only a few personnel with mold production and processing, because there is a shortage of personnel. The technical force is limited, although the factory was built very early. However, the pace of development has always been very slow, which seriously restricts the manufacture and production of industrial products in the Far East.
In recent years, there are a large number of craftsmen in the company's immigrants, although there are people from all walks of life, but many craftsmen in this era are ingenious and skilled. The hardware mold factory selected and recruited a group of the most skilled craftsmen from it and trained them from scratch. After several years of hard work, although the whole process stumbled, it finally began to take shape.
Of course, at present, the processing level of the Far East Mold Factory is still very average, but it can be regarded as a bit of a foundation after all. Fortunately, the craftsmen of this era are really powerful. Although the craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty and Japan are illiterate and have not seen much, they all have a different craftsmanship from modern society. And they are generally good at research, and their enthusiasm for learning is also very high, and they have made great progress in the field of mold processing in recent years.
In addition to these relatively large enterprises, Vladivostok has also developed more than 200 small and medium-sized enterprises in recent years, plus dozens of enterprises in Bac Ninh City. And it also includes heavy enterprises such as steel complexes, large coal mines, large machine factories, shipyards, etc., and Vladivostok can reach the level of a heavy industrial zone even in modern society.
Vladivostok not only has a large number of enterprises, but also a very complete range of industries, with the exception of many chemical industries in the Sakhalin petrochemical base, covering almost most of the industrial categories.
In fact, there are many industries that are too small to be attached to some large enterprises and exist in the form of production workshops or departments. Because there are so many industrial categories, the company can only develop gradually according to the priority and priority as much as possible. Many of the company's internal employees have several professional knowledge, and it is obviously unrealistic to expect professional personnel in various categories.
As the company's next plan unfolded, these industries gradually developed. At that time, a new plant will be built. These industries are mainly accumulating experience and cultivating talents in the recent stage, and patiently waiting for the company's next development plan.
After ten years of development, the materials brought by Far Eastern Company from modern society, except for some vulnerable parts and high-end accessories and a certain inventory, the rest have basically been exhausted, and most of the sealed equipment has been unsealed, and some materials have been scrapped or are frequently scrapped.
In the future, Far Eastern Company can only continue to develop by relying on its own efforts. Through a large number of modern equipment and materials, the Far Eastern Company spent ten years to lay a solid foundation and pave the way for future development.
Although the company's headquarters has moved to Shenyang, Vladivostok's position in the company has not been reduced. Now and in the future, the Far East Company will become the center of science and technology research and development in the Far East, the industrial base of the Far East, and the base camp of higher education.
