To be honest, the staff of the industrial laboratory were also taken aback. Each part of the titanium alloy that he brought over today had extremely high processing accuracy. According to their measurements, they had already reached the 0.1 micron level, even the most accurate NC Machining Center wouldn't have such precision, right?
Guo Tai Lai looked to be very satisfied with the processing accuracy. At least, whether it was Huang Weiguo or the rest of the Mercedes-Benz staff, they could all see the satisfaction on Guo Tai Lai's face.
Two days later, they drove back to the headquarters of the Stuttgart Mercedes-Benz. Next, Guo Tai Lai will assemble the two engine parts.Mr McLaren insisted that Mr Guo install the two engines empty-handed, but Mercedes-Benz disagreed. Although they had all seen the stability and accuracy of Guo's hand-to-hand installation, and the improvement in engine performance, Mercedes-Benz still wanted to install one of the engines.
After a few more rounds of negotiations, Guo Tailai and Guo Lai also began the three-way process. Guo Tailai had no objections. If he could install an engine less and charge the same amount of money, why not? However, Guo insisted that this engine of the all-titanium alloy was installed by Guo Tai Lai himself, and that Mercedes-Benz could install another one.
The installation was carried out in another assembly plant, where a team of senior engineers from the Mercedes-Benz section held tools and rested their heads on the floor. On the other side, Guo Tailai was the only one on the assembly stage, which was not far away from the same workshop. Huang Weiguo and the other two were present, but the three of them were just standing by the side, faithfully carrying out their duties as bodyguards, with no intention to interfere at all. Engineers on each side, recording two related processes, will tick each completed project to ensure that an operation is not missed.
The two engines had the same principle and design, except that some parts were made of different materials, some parts were of different thickness, and some parts were of different weight. Theoretically, the output power and output torque of the two engines should be the same, so the assembly of these two engines became an unofficial small PK for the senior Mercedes-Benz craftsmen and Guo Tailai's assembling techniques.
On one side was a highly select senior craftsman from the German nation, and on the other was a young man from China who was said to be an expert, or was he just a manual worker? It was one thing if the processing precision of the fully automated NC Machining Center could not be compared to it, but if even the assembling aspect of the team could not be compared to it, then the Mercedes-Benz side would have to carefully study it, and whether the Mercedes-Benz was truly improving after all these years.
It was impossible to compare in terms of processing. The Mercedes-Benz had already completely recognized that titanium alloy was not as skilled as the other metal. Therefore, in order to assemble one item, he must win it back, and he must also win it beautifully. Vice President, who was in charge of production, had personally mobilized them before the battle. No matter what, they had to suppress Guo Tailai so that they could have the advantage in the negotiations later on.For this reason, the senior craftsmen were all unaware that Guo Tailai's personally installed engines had been upgraded to be the most experienced ones stationed at the headquarters, so they were completely unaffected by Guo Tailai's previous achievements.
The Mercedes-Benz was proud. They didn't want to take advantage of the time they had left, so when Guo Tailai picked up his tools and started to fight, they started to move. On the assembly stage, a group of people began to get busy.All sorts of connecting rods and cam valves were assembled carefully. Guo Tai Lai's side looked very easy, but the Mercedes-Benz team wasn't nervous. Everyone moved in an orderly manner, no one affecting each other.
However, the moment they began to move some heavy parts, the two of them noticed the difference in strength.
On Guo Tai's side, most of them were handmade. The engine was designed according to the design, and the workpieces weighed no more than 100 kg. It was not a problem for Guo Tailai with his abnormal constitution. Therefore, Guo Tailai had installed the final part of the cylinder with both hands instead of using the lifting equipment.
The Mercedes-Benz team couldn't handle it. Even for the accuracy of the assembly, they still had to use lifting equipment to help with the suspension, as long as the angle was adjusted manually.
As a result, because they were afraid that the lifting tools would make contact with the workpiece, even if they were hanging, the team members would carefully protect it, and the natural progress would be affected. In terms of speed, Guo Tailai was able to flatten the advantage brought about by the large number of people before.
Guo Tai Lai's assembly was already incomprehensible. A V-shaped cylinder, Guo Tai Lai reached out to grab the piston and plug it in, not fearing that even the slightest deviation in angle would cause the installation to be unfavorable and the friction during the later stages of work to intensify. Logically, this method of not measuring the size of the eyes should have been abandoned completely and replaced with a high precision mechanization. However, Guo Tai had installed it so easily, without any angle that it couldn't be inserted. It was unbelievable.
Especially when Guo Tailai held the top half of the cylinder to lower the lid, the Mercedes-Benz team was still very careful even with the lifting equipment. The ones responsible for the operation were all holding their breath and moving about, almost one millimeter at a time. But what about Guo Tailai? He actually put it on so easily. He's not afraid, right?Although they couldn't believe it at all, Guo Tailai was already starting to screw the nut. Looking at the ease with which the screws were inserted, it was clear that the upper and lower part of the screw was quite accurate. However, Guo Tailai was holding the device with both hands. How could it be possible with the strength of his arms?
Apparently, in the later stages of the assembly, the installation of the Mercedes-Benz team had been disrupted by the actions of Guo alone. No matter what Guo Tai did or how he did it, the senior technicians would always look over. All kinds of doubts and shock were mixed in, causing the installation efficiency of the Mercedes-Benz team to be several times lower.
In the end, when Guo Tailai had finished installing the 85 kilograms perovskite engine, there were only a few steps left for the 10 members of the Mercedes-Benz team to complete the installation.
Although the time difference wasn't even 10 minutes, the senior craftsmen of the Mercedes-Benz team had already lowered their arrogant heads. All ten of them moved ten minutes later than the other person. Regardless of the quality of the assembly, they first lost in terms of assembly efficiency.
Next, the two sides admired each other's installed engines without breaking them apart. At this stage, neither Mr. Guo nor the Mercedes-Benz installation team commented on the engines installed by the other side.
After that, both engines were filled with lubricating oil, coolant, and electricity. On the test platform, the engine was tested after the engine was started.
