Chapter 521 Delivery of the first batch of parts
Chengnan base, large parts workshop. +,
In the workshop, a large CNC gantry milling machine purchased from Germany is being installed. In addition to several equipment personnel from Tianfeng Technology Company, there are also two German technicians.
Germany did not send engineering and technical personnel to the installation. At the beginning, the equipment staff of Tianfeng Technology Company were quite slight, but soon there was no objection. The performance of these two German technicians was very outstanding.
We cooperated together and the equipment was installed in place. Several major components have been installed, and some machine tools are being installed.
"Old Huang, the itinerary of this equipment is so big. Look at the guide rail, it is at least fifty meters."
Lao Huang is a equipment officer. Lao Huang said proudly: "The length of the guide rail is 60 meters, and it can process any parts less than 60 meters."
"My goodness, sixty meters of parts!"
While installing, we chatted. From time to time, people exclaimed slightly that there were two such large equipment in a workshop with large components.
In addition to these two big guys, there are also two CNC gantry milling machines with a stroke of 35 meters in the workshop of Large Part 2. Such equipment can be multi-milled and drilled. It can be said that it is a combination of drilling and milling, and the processing accuracy is also very high. In order to enter the aircraft manufacturing industry, Tianfeng Technology Company has invested a lot of money in equipment.
The installation and commissioning of equipment has been started in the Chengnan base for two or three months. Now, many factories have been installed and have begun to enter the production stage.
Of course, the parts of Bombardier are produced, such as workshop No. 1, two or three hundred technical workers are working hard.
When you walk into the workshop, you will find that the planning here is orderly, very neat and brand new equipment. It is so bright that it can almost shine on the ground where people are shadowing. On each station, you can see the parts being processed.
The parts processed for Bombardier involve a large number of types and quantities, including wings, tail wings, rudders, hatch doors, etc., and more are various structural parts on the aircraft.
Structural parts are the most important part among aircraft parts. This type of parts is mainly made of aluminum alloy. It is based on the manufacturing process and weight of the parts. In the past, aluminum plates were mainly made of riveted.
Now, the structural parts of this type of passenger aircraft processed by Tianfeng Technology for Bombardier are not made of aluminum alloy, but are made of Hercules materials.
The materials are no longer aluminum alloys, and the production and manufacturing processes, and the design of these structural parts are no longer the same. After sufficient technical communication between Tianfeng Technology and Bombardier, these passenger aircraft parts adopt a brand new design.
This new design adopts completely different design technologies. Various functions are integrated into one structural component, that is, integrated design technology.
Generally speaking, the structural parts of the passenger aircraft are made of a solid aluminum billet and milled. This type of parts is very complex, usually including a very small bottom surface and thin wall (0.6~2mm), and are in a honeycomb shape. The geometry of these parts is composed of different surfaces and prescribed curved surfaces.
The disadvantage of such design and processing technology is that the material utilization rate is very low, the processing is very complicated, and time-consuming.
After adopting new design and processing technology, the parts are processed quickly and the cost is greatly reduced. The first batch of structural parts has only been processed for more than 20 days, and the processing has been completed and the inspection process has entered.
Structural parts processing workshop.
Li Tianfeng and Bombardier Vice President Smith are in the finished product area of the workshop, where the first batch of finished machine structural parts have been placed.
Smith looked at the parts seriously, and the expression of joy and excitement on his face was very obvious. While looking at it, he shouted excitedly, without the image of a vice president.
"Oh, God, I can't believe it, Mr. Li. This part is so beautifully processed and the parts are so lightweight."
Li Tianfeng smiled and said that Li Tianfeng was also quite satisfied with the processing quality of this batch of parts. Not only did the parts look and sizes were processed very well, but the performance of the parts was even better.
Li Tianfeng also knew that using Hercules materials is no longer an aluminum alloy material, and the performance of these structural parts will be very good, but Li Tianfeng was still very happy to see the data on the performance report.
Li Tianfeng said: "Mr. Smith, take a look at the static experiment report."
Smith, who was happy and excited, held the static experimental report of the parts and looked like this. This was an experimental report in English. The data on it were very clear and detailed.
After a little look, Smith said: "Mr. Li, the static performance of this part is much stronger than similar parts made of aluminum alloy! I can't believe it."
Li Tianfeng said: "Mr. Smith, congratulations, this batch of parts has very good performance and is about 30% lighter than the same aluminum alloy parts."
Smith said with a happy look: "Mr. Li, thank you."
Li Tianfeng smiled and nodded with a look of "You're making a lot of money". These parts made of Hercules use integrated design and the price is less than 20% higher than the price of the same type of aluminum alloy material.
In fact, if you make a big profit, it is Tianfeng Technology Company, which is made of Hercules. The processing cost is slightly lower than that of similar aluminum alloy parts, and it sells almost 20% more expensive than aluminum alloy structural parts, so the profit is very considerable.
However, this is a business secret. Not to mention the senior executives of Tianfeng Technology Company, no one in other companies will know the high profits.
Smith personally came to Tianfeng Technology Company for the first batch of structural parts and personally accepted the batch of structural parts to be delivered. Smith was very satisfied and praised her.
Even Smith happily held Li Tianfeng's hand and said, "Mr. Li, cooperating with you is the wisest choice."
The first batch of parts were delivered, and the two parties also held a simple delivery ceremony. The ceremony was completed. The parts began to be packaged, packed, and then shipped to Bombardier.
As for transportation matters, Tianfeng Technology Company does not have to worry about it. The two parties agreed to deliver the parts at Tianfeng Technology Company. After the delivery, Bombardier Company will be responsible for transporting them away.
Based on such an agreement, the Chengnan Base is close to the logistics back door, and is adjacent to a large factory building. This large factory building of more than 10,000 square meters is the parts delivery workshop of the Chengnan Base.
Later, the parts that need to be delivered will be transported to this workshop, and then the parts will be inspected, packaged, packed and shipped here.
Bombardier’s acceptance representative can enter this workshop. As for other workshops, I’m sorry, you can’t go in and out at will.
Mr. Smith was happily back to Canada. Soon after, a large number of drawings of various passenger aircraft parts that Bombardier needed to process were sent to Tianfeng Technology Company.
After the production and manufacturing workshops at the Chengnan base were officially launched, the first thing they produced was Bombardier's various parts.
………
After Smith returned happily, within a few days, Tianfeng Technology welcomed Marceldo, vice president of Embraer, and his delegation.
The two sides are old relationships and cooperation lasts not a year or two. Liu Wei took the car to Huangping Airport and picked up Marceldo and his party to the State Bin Hotel. There was no need for Xu Lilong to pick him up in person.
The day after arriving in Songzhou, Marceldo and his party arrived at Tianfeng Technology Company early in the morning. In the reception room, Li Tianfeng, Xu Lilong and others personally received Marceldo and his party.
At the beginning, the two sides were greeting and did not get to the point. Xu Lilong said: "Mr. Marceldo, I remember that you haven't come to our Tianfeng Technology Company for at least two years."
Marceldo said: "It has been two years and three months. In more than two years, the development and changes of Tianfeng Technology Company have been amazing."
Tianfeng Technology Company and Embraer have had many years of cooperative relationships. The order of engines between both parties basically no longer requires Marceldo, the vice president of Tianfeng Technology Company to come to Tianfeng Technology Company in person.
The share of Tianfeng Technology's engine in Embraer's engine procurement has also increased from 10% to 20% of the cooperation stage between the two parties to and stabilized at about 40% of the current engine.
Tianfeng Technology Company occupies 40% of the shares, which is already a very good achievement. The remaining 60% of the shares have been divided up by several other aircraft engine companies, including well-known large companies such as General Motors and Pratt & Whitney.
Competing with such well-known engine companies, it is already a very good result to occupy 40% of the market.
However, Li Tianfeng had a premonition today that this data may be broken from today, and may no longer be 40% or higher.
After a greeting, Marceldo said: "Mr. Li, your engine is very outstanding and excellent, especially the cost-effectiveness is very suitable. What is even more valuable is that none of these engines have any faults so far, which is very rare."
After saying that, Marceldo said: "Mr. Li, after the research and decision of our board of directors, we are ready to order your engine again."
Li Tianfeng smiled, "Mr. Marceldo, we have been in a cooperative relationship for many years, and the price of the engine remains the same."
Everyone at Tianfeng Technology Company, including Xu Lilong, thought to themselves that Marceldo is not just a business investigation, but now he is about to order the engine. And looking at it, there are still quite a lot of engines ordered.
Marceldo said: "Mr. Li, you are such a friend. We decided to order 100 turbofan 17 engines, 100 turbofan 18 engines, and 200 turbofan 21 engines."
There are a total of 400 engines, with a total value of nearly 12 billion yuan, which can be considered a big order.
Li Tianfeng said happily: "Mr. Marceldo, thank you for ordering our engine again."
Soon, the two parties signed a formal contract and the business was negotiated.
However, Li Tianfeng had a premonition that Marceldo must have come to order engines more than so much.

Two updates today, the first update will be given.
Sorry, I can only update two more today. I studied for a day during the day, but I really don’t have time to write. I owe a chapter for the time being, so I try my best to make up for it on the weekend.
In addition, Chapter 2 is a little later and is still typing. (To be continued...)
Chapter completed!
