*********
By the end of February, Jin Xiaoqiang finally finished the improved version of the engine.
Looking at this completely lightweight, all-aluminum alloy engine, Jin Xiaoqiang couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in his heart. Although the greatest contribution to this engine must be attributed to his wide-open golden fingers, there is also something in it.
The hard work of other workers in the whole factory.
This new engine trial production project not only tested the casting process and machining process of the entire plant, but also achieved significant breakthroughs in many aspects.
Especially in terms of the aluminum alloy manufacturing process of the entire body, you must know that this is the mainstream direction of engine development in the world now and in a few years.
In fact, aluminum engines are not necessarily better in performance than cast iron engines, especially in terms of anti-explosion performance and high temperature resistance, and friction cooling is also a big problem.
Although oil cooling technology has been developed in the world, the most obvious effect of this technology is the burning of oil. Especially the aluminum engines of Volkswagen and Ford have always been famous for burning oil.
But why will aluminum engines still become mainstream in the future?
As someone who has experienced this, Jin Xiaoqiang knows this very well. This is of course related to the increasingly depleting oil resources around the world. Another very important reason is that people pay more and more attention to the concept of environmental protection.
One of the most obvious advantages of aluminum engines over cast iron engines is that their weight can be reduced to 60% or more of that of cast iron engines.
It is its lightness that enables the car to achieve the purpose of saving fuel. You must know that if the weight of each car is reduced by 10%, it can save 6% of fuel, and the noise during driving will also be reduced by 100%.
Two-thirds.
Therefore, if a car with an engine made of all-aluminum alloy is used, the fuel consumption will be 10% or more lower than that of a car with an engine made of cast iron, and the noise will also be significantly controlled.
Therefore, this aluminum alloy engine will definitely become the mainstream development direction of engines in the future.
For now, Jin Xiaoqiang's Huayang Power's successful trial production of aluminum alloy engines is definitely no less than their breakthrough in engine localization.
In the trial production process of this aluminum alloy engine, many people played a crucial role, especially the two masters Ding Weizhong and Yang Dingwei.
Since the last time they developed the aluminum alloy cylinder head of the Octavia 1.6L engine, the two masters have been thinking about how to produce an all-aluminum engine.
In the end, after several months of public relations, the two finally developed a complete process.
That is to first use the FDM system, which is a rapid prototyping system, that Jin Xiaoqiang got from Japan to make a sample, and then use the sample to quickly make a silicone mold, and then use the silicone mold to make a wax model.
Then the wax mold is taken to a small vacuum manufacturing machine to cast the aluminum alloy workpiece. Because the silicone mold can be reused and mass-produced, this mold making work saves a lot of time and cost.
When encountering large components such as cylinder blocks, the fdm system is used to directly produce prototypes, and then rapid prototypes are used for investment manufacturing, so that metal prototypes can be obtained.
The invention of such a set of process flow is simply an added advantage for Jin Xiaoqiang. You must know that although many domestic manufacturers are currently studying the manufacturing process and processing technology of this aluminum alloy workpiece, they have not made any progress.
At present, Japan is the most successful manufacturer of aluminum alloy engines, but the Japanese are secretive about this aspect and have never thought of providing us with such technology.
Therefore, the inventions of these two masters are extremely valuable to Jin Xiaoqiang.
After watching and understanding the manufacturing process of the two masters, Jin Xiaoqiang immediately signed a long-term contract with the two masters, and then sent the two masters' patents along with many of their Huayang Power patents.
Many departments at home and abroad apply for patents.
At the same time, Jin Xiaoqiang also gave the two masters a bonus of one million each and signed a contract. As long as the factory continues to use this process to process aluminum alloy engines in the future, the two will continue to work together.
Each aluminum alloy engine receives 5% of the profit.
Two masters, Ding Weizhong and Yang Dingwei, have been engaged in research and manufacturing work all their lives, but when have they ever received such attention?
One million is not a small amount these days? The most important thing is the steady flow of profits later!
Neither of them were stupid. They would not refuse Jin Xiaoqiang's conditions. They immediately signed a contract with Jin Xiaoqiang and expressed their willingness to work in the factory until they retired.
Moreover, both Wang Guoqiang and Li Qiming played a key role in this research and development work, so Jin Xiaoqiang certainly did not hesitate to reward him.
In the end, Jin Xiaoqiang invested more than 10 million in funds and bonuses for the research and development of this brand-new engine.
To outsiders, it may seem like a lot of money, but in Jin Xiaoqiang's eyes, the money is simply worth it and not expensive at all.
You must know that these days, if you want to develop an engine with such performance, if you can successfully develop it, you will have to invest at least a year and tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of funds.
But when Jin Xiaoqiang opened the golden finger, such an engine actually only took a few months to make, and it only cost tens of millions inside and out. With such an investment, you can
Is it worth it?
Except for the turbine, which uses Honeywell's Garrett series, the entire engine can be said to be all domestically produced. As long as such a domestically produced engine can be put on the market, it will definitely cause a sensation.
.
At present, let alone domestic independent brands and large joint ventures, it is estimated that it will take a while for even world-class car companies to come up with an engine that can compete with this engine.
After adjusting the ECU, the peak output power of 300 horsepower and the peak torque reached 350 Nm with a displacement of 2.0. This is definitely not an indicator that any engine can achieve.
Of course, Jin Xiaoqiang and the others will of course put restrictions on the ECU when selling small products in the future. Otherwise, not everyone can control this car with such a strong output power, and the power is too high, which is obviously not in line with the country.
stipulated by certain laws.
But as long as this car becomes famous, foreign car enthusiasts will not care about your Chinese laws...
The engine was built, and it was equipped with a six-speed manual transmission that Jin Xiaoqiang copied from ZF. In this way, the powertrain of the car that will participate in the Nürburgring track is considered complete.
The rest is assembly. As for the car model, Jin Xiaoqiang of course chose the Eado sedan they will launch this year. The chassis is still the classic Corner King chassis of the Ma 6, and Jin Xiaoqiang also made
Some special adjustments have been made to make this car more stable when driving, especially when cornering at high speeds.
By the time I finished working on this car, it was already mid-March 2004, and by then the goods sent by foreign suppliers like Bosch and ABB had basically been in place.
Moreover, the installation and debugging work of those European engineers has basically been completed. After all, there is strength in numbers. You must know that at the beginning of the year, Wang Jiao helped Jin Xiaoqiang recruit thousands of workers, including technical workers.
That's eighty percent.
Fortunately, Nanyang City is originally a heavy industrial city, and the closure of major state-owned factories in recent years has resulted in many skilled workers being laid off at home.
With the help of these skilled workers, the construction of the factory is progressing very quickly. The equipment in the production department has been installed. It is currently in the stage of debugging, trial production and personnel training.
On the side of the steel plant, Jin Xiaoqiang invested about 100 million yuan with a stroke of his pen to take over all the abandoned factories surrounding the original steel plant, forming the core part of Huayang Power.
That is, the special metal smelting department and the powertrain R&D department. These two departments will be the most important departments for Huayang Power in the future.
One specializes in basic science, that is, the research of materials science and the manufacturing of special steel, while the other specializes in engine technology, automobile appearance design, and vehicle manufacturing processes.
This new core department also covers an area of 60,000 acres, and the total cost is about 350 million yuan, including more than 100 million yuan for the land and more than 100 million yuan for the construction of factories and testing departments.
There are also tens of millions spent by Jin Xiaoqiang who entrusted Naruto Shenxing to quietly purchase experimental equipment and special steel smelting equipment in Japan.
The current investment is not large, and it does not include the cost of the two hundred or so machine tools he purchased from Japan. This is just the initial investment in the laboratory and special steel smelting.
After this, Jin Xiaoqiang's conservative estimate is that at least 500 million will be invested here to purchase equipment.
During this period of time, Huayang Power has made successive big moves in Nanyang City, including large-scale investment and large-scale recruitment. Although Huayang Power is not well-known in the domestic industry at present, in Nanyang City, it is already
They are well-known, especially within the automobile industry in Nanyang. Their reputation cannot be said to be small.
At present, not counting the vehicle manufacturing assembly lines that Jin Xiaoqiang purchased from abroad, they have already spent more than 800 million on the land and construction of the new factory area. If you add in the equipment that they spent more than 1 billion abroad,
For procurement, they have already spent more than 2 billion yuan on it.
This is also thanks to the fact that Jin Xiaoqiang made a lot of money in Hong Kong some time ago, otherwise he might not be able to hold on long ago. After all, his company is now in a state of zero output...
