Chapter 249 If you want to do good work, you must first sharpen your tools: China’s super gantry cra

"Mr. Liu, aren't you too busy during this period? Besides, I have not forgotten what I promised you. Our group has been doing corresponding technology research and development during this time..."

In the factory area, Xu Huasheng and Mr. Liu were chatting while walking, and by the way, they introduced their shipyard to Mr. Liu.

A group of experts named by Xu Huasheng personally followed the two of them, and they all looked at the shipyard curiously as they walked.

This shipyard is large in scale, the surrounding buildings are all new, and the interior looks clean and neat.

When looking at the docks in the distance, many people swallowed their saliva, because there were quite a lot of docks here, dozens of large and small docks.Especially after seeing the four super large dry docks, everyone couldn't help but whisper.

Such a super large shipyard is only used for building [-]-ton ships. Looking at the size of this shipyard, it is estimated that ships of [-]-ton class can be built here.Such shipyards are rare in China. After all, China's shipbuilding technology is relatively backward now, and its shipbuilding capabilities for [-]-ton cargo ships are really lacking.Not to mention the [-]-ton class, China cannot build very good ships even with six or seven thousand-ton class.

These four very large docks are closed docks. A huge mobile shed directly covers the dock. There are two long guide rails at the rear of the dock. When the shed needs to be moved, the guide rails can be used to pull the huge shed directly. Just go.

"Mr. Liu, this is the No. [-] dock of our shipyard..."

Xu Huasheng took Mr. Liu and his party directly into the No. [-] dock. After entering the huge dock, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.

After entering the dock, everyone immediately saw the huge mobile gantry crane spanning both sides of the huge dock.Although I don’t know the data of this gantry crane, I guess the performance will not be bad after looking at this head.

There were several huge English letters on the beam of this gantry crane, Huateng. No one knew this brand. This situation made these technicians couldn't help but discuss in a low voice, wondering which country this gantry crane was imported from.

"Isn't this Pinyin?"

A technician couldn't help but said after looking at it for a long time, which made everyone stunned.Looking at the English letters, and then looking at the four smaller Chinese characters next to the letters, I immediately felt dumbfounded.

Huateng Heavy Industries, isn’t this the pinyin? Aren’t these English letters the Chinese spelling of Huateng?It's just that now it's spelled out with capital Pinyin letters, which makes it look like a foreign brand. If you don't say it, it can really fool many people.

Huateng, no one has heard of this brand.

Naturally, they have never heard of it. Huateng Heavy Industry is a heavy industry group invested by Xu Huasheng. Gantry cranes are Huateng's current core products. There are not only super large ones, but also large, medium and small ones. However, these products are not large yet. It is listed on a large scale, but its market share is still relatively low.

"Mr. Liu, this gantry crane is the core product of Huateng Heavy Industry, a subsidiary of our parent company. The maximum lifting capacity of this gantry crane reaches 16000 tons. With this thing, let alone building [-]-ton cargo ships, even if it is [-] tons Class aircraft carriers are completely fine.”

Xu Huasheng pointed to the gantry crane and introduced to Mr. Liu that this gantry crane has very powerful performance, with a maximum lifting capacity of 16000 tons. Not to mention in this era, even 30 years later, it is still the world's top gantry crane.

If you want to be good at work, you must first sharpen your tools. If you want to build a big ship, you must have advanced tools.The gantry crane is an indispensable thing. After all, modern shipbuilding is not like before.Nowadays, shipbuilding is built in sections. Each section is built separately and then these sections are assembled together. This greatly increases the speed of shipbuilding.

If you want to hoist such heavy sections, it is absolutely impossible without this large gantry crane.

"Can these few steel cables lift 16000 tons?"

A technician couldn't help but asked in surprise. Everyone else was similar, even Mr. Liu.Because this gantry crane does not look complicated.

Just a huge gantry, some steel cables, and multifunctional hooks, it doesn't look complicated.

Hearing this, Xu Huasheng laughed.

"Everyone, don't underestimate these steel ropes. I'm not bragging. This kind of steel ropes may not be produced in the United States or Europe. This kind of steel rope uses new materials and new processes, and its performance is very good. Mr. Liu, in fact This kind of steel cable can not only be used in gantry cranes, but can also be used in other places. For example, the cables of cross-sea bridges, and even the arresting cables used on aircraft carriers can use this material. In the future, whenever the country needs it, we can use it at any time. Produce qualified aircraft carrier arresting ropes..."

Xu Huasheng's words made everyone's eyes widen, and Mr. Liu was even more excited.

"Xiao Xu, you didn't lie to me?"

Mr. Liu quickly asked, "Aircraft carrier, aircraft carrier is the obsession in Mr. Liu's heart."He also knows a lot about aircraft carriers, and the arresting cable on an aircraft carrier, even though it is just a thin steel cable, is indeed one of the most technically difficult things.Because the aircraft carrier does not have this thing, the fighter jets cannot land, and the fighter jets cannot land. Even if the aircraft carrier is built, it will be an empty shell. This shows the importance of this arresting cable.

Mr. Liu knows better that currently there are very few countries that can create such blocking ropes.

"Mr. Liu, why did I lie to you? Don't underestimate our own R&D capabilities. In many cases, our companies do not lack R&D capabilities. As long as the money is in place, technological breakthroughs are not difficult for them..."

Xu Huasheng said with a smile, thinking of the interesting story about the blocking cable of the Chinese aircraft carrier in the original time and space.When China was building its aircraft carrier, it had no blocking cables, so it wanted to buy it from Russia and the United States.As a result, the two countries directly and explicitly rejected it, and the United States also ridiculed China that it would take at least ten years to build a blocking rope.

But they never expected a slap in the face. Huaxia prepared to build a blocking cable on its own. After posting the performance indicators, a domestic company immediately reported that they had already built this thing for a long time.

After investigation by the Chinese military, it was discovered that the blocking cables of the US aircraft carrier were actually made by China.In order to save money, American companies acted as second-hand dealers and purchased the steel cables directly from Chinese companies. They also told Chinese companies that they were steel cables for building bridges.

In this way, American companies successively bought 600 million U.S. dollars of steel ropes from this Chinese company, but then sold them to the U.S. military for hundreds of millions of dollars.

In fact, such things abound, and the kid next door likes to do this kind of thing.Things are imported from China and sold as OEM, including high-end bearings, steel, even rice cookers, eels, and some agricultural products.

If you don't notice, you just keep making money, saying it's made in Japan. If something goes wrong, you'll continue to do the same thing, bow and apologize, and then sell it.At that time, many Chinese people who worshiped foreigners traveled to Japan and bought Japanese rice cookers. They also boasted about how good Japanese rice cookers were. Only to find out in the end that these rice cookers were actually produced in China was really ironic.
