Automobile manufacturing starts with steel plates, and steel plates are also very particular.

Galvanized sheet is electroplated with a layer of zinc on both sides of the steel sheet. This layer can prevent rust. After being used on the car, the car can avoid the phenomenon of early rust on the car body.

Of course, ordinary steel plate also has anti-rust technology, but compared with galvanized plate, it is much inferior. Ordinary steel plate, with paint on the outside, is not easy to rust under normal circumstances, but if the customer In highly corrosive areas such as the seashore, the paint on the car can't stop the erosion of water vapor, so it is easy to burst from the inside.

In the hands of the customer, after three or four years, it began to rust, and the galvanized sheet can be guaranteed not to rust for at least ten years. After ten years, the customer should also change the car? Of course, this refers to those places with a lot of water vapor, if in the dry climate of the north, as long as you don't bump into it, it won't rust for 20 years.

However, galvanized steel sheets are used only on cars with a higher price, and cars costing more than 100,000 yuan. The Han people actually use galvanized steel sheets in 50,000 yuan vans. This is simply It's unbelievable, don't they count the cost?

"Compared with the investment in galvanized sheet, the quality improvement brought by it is worth it." Factory Manager Zhang said: "In fact, in our country, some auto factories use ordinary steel plates to make vans, although the appearance is very beautiful, and The price is also cheaper than ours. However, after a few years of use, users have discovered that their cars have rusty bodies, so naturally they will be more inclined to our cars. We want to do long-term, and the reputation is the most Important, the galvanized sheet cannot be saved."

Their vans are more expensive, but the quality is good. In this way, after several years of market development, they have naturally accumulated a good reputation.

Don’t you think about the cost for the sake of quality? How do you achieve cost control? Zheng Zhouyun at this time is very strange in his heart. Can they control this to less than 50,000 yuan? Even with their low domestic labor costs, they can't do it, right? You must know that an automobile factory needs a large number of workers, and the cost of these workers is quite high. There are also various welfare measures, and none of them is indispensable.

How do they make money?

And this mystery was quickly revealed. Zheng Zhouyun continued to look forward, unable to conceal his surprised expression: "Those are mechanical arms?"

There are not many workers on the production line, because many jobs have been replaced by robotic arms.

For example, starting from the uncoiling of the steel plate just now, after cleaning, after the completion, it starts to cut into pieces, cut into corresponding shapes, and then put them on the punching machine for punching. These, in their modern automobile factory, are all done manually. Yes, but now, they saw a robotic arm with a magnet washing plate. It sucked the cut steel plate, turned it, and placed it under the punching machine. The punching machine slammed, and the steel plate of a car roof was punched. Then the robotic arm will **** up the steel plate again and transfer it to the production line below.

On the production line below, the car roof, door frame, etc. are all accurately spliced ​​by the robot arm. Those smart robot arms turn left and right on the top, and the electric spark splashes. It is a special welding robot. The car body is welded together automatically.

So, even Hans State, which is the largest in the industry, is afraid it is impossible to use this technology on a production line of a van?

Moreover, the cost control here also reveals the answer.

Reduce the use of people and use a lot of robots.

Take the stamping process just now, it was originally operated by humans, but once it is operated by humans, safety must be ensured. Once there is any mistake, the worker's hands may be squeezed out by the punching machine. , This work accident will cost the factory a sum of money.

Or, the factory has to spend a lot of money to insure the workers, and after using the robotic arm, it is no longer needed, and the money can be saved. Although it may be more expensive when it was first purchased, After long-term use, the cost is controlled.

But, how could they have such a modern factory? It's incredible.

He originally thought it was just a small factory like a handcraft workshop. Now it seems that his modern car factory is the real handcraft workshop!

The body-in-white is manufactured, and there is a special electrophoresis workshop. There needs to be quite pure inside the factory. The workers wear dust-proof clothing to work, which is comparable to the electronics workshop. The standard here is even higher than theirs. Magnitude!

"Come here and watch it again, it really made us gain a lot." Zheng Zhouyun said with a sigh, looking at the fellow Pu Zhihui, Li Benxian, there was a feeling of loneliness in his eyes, they were sitting in the sky.

The modernization process of the Han people here is far beyond their imagination. This is just a car body production. As for other things, the engine, etc., are equally advanced and modern.

"We also want to see your QQ car." After the tour here, it is already noon, but Zheng Zhouyun's interest is not diminished. He doesn't even plan to eat lunch, so he wants to visit the car production line. .

"The production line of the car is in another factory area." Director Zhang said: "Everyone, let's eat here first."

After the car was developed, he was only trying to put it into the market, and the result was well received. So the director Zhang, without hesitation, obtained a loan from the bank and applied for land from the government, so he established a second factory to produce this QQ small car.

Sure enough, as he expected, the QQ sedan products were in short supply, and the production line was in a three-shift state of continuous rotation. With this project, they also transformed from a van manufacturer into a car manufacturer.

If Hongqi cars are tall and tall to meet the living needs of high-end people, then QQ is the same as a van, taking the route of surrounding the city from the countryside. The rich people in the countryside will choose the alternative product of the van when they become rich. On QQ, this kind of car, with Haihe Automobile Factory, once again achieved a flyby.

"Okay, then let's talk while eating." Zheng Zhouyun knew that he shouldn't be too impatient. You can also talk about a lot of things while eating.

"Does your QQ car have a special sports car version?" Zheng Zhouyun asked first after a large table of Chinese specialties came up in the factory's guest house.

I just got out of the car yesterday, but I was overtaken by a small QQ. This made Zheng Zhouyun worry about it all the time, and he kept it in his heart. Now he finally asked.

Hearing this question, Director Zhang secretly smiled in his heart, hum, you really are hooked.
