Chapter 315： 3D printing

Chapter 315 Stereoscopic printing

It was a bit too much to play this night, and the role-playing was too deep... But it was rare for her to take the initiative to perform another style, and An Feng, who was handcuffed, cooperated silently, and did not fall asleep exhausted until the early morning. On the second day, he was determined not to get up after three poles. An Feng rubbed his temples and almost couldn't stand it.

Joanna laughed softly when she saw him rubbing his head.

An Feng turned his head, lifted the blanket and got in, climbed on top of her, and threatened, "How dare you laugh!"

"Stop!" She pressed his head, "It's late enough, if you don't want to wake up in the afternoon!"

"There's nothing else to do anyway!" An Feng sat up and looked at her naked body, "It's so perfect! Can I show you an art photo?"

"There are still guests at home!" Joanna put her arms in front of her chest.

"Don't mention this matter, I guarantee that they didn't get up, maybe there are some more restricted ones!" An Feng speculated maliciously.

"Impure thoughts!" She pointed to her head.

"I confess to what I committed! Police officer!" An Feng shot back with a smile.

"Bold! Don't mention it again!" Joanna started a fight with him, and showed the handcuffs she used to force An Feng to be "M" last night.

"It seems that you have great potential, Your Lady Queen." An Feng picked up the handcuffs.

"As you said, my favorite!" She said with a sullen expression, "Now, pick me up, I want to go to the bathroom!"

"Obey!" An Feng threw away the handcuffs, picked her up by the waist, and went to the bathroom.

After washing up, I came out almost in the afternoon.

Wang Le and Lisa also woke up quite late, both of them had dark circles under their eyes, which made An Feng very happy. Wang Le did not refute. After lunch, they left. Wang Le said: "See you at the shooting exhibition. I will go back to China after a while, and then I will bring you a few local tyrants to join me!"

"Go all the way." An Feng gave him a high five.

"Fuck!" Wang Le beckoned to the Porsche at the door and drove away.

The last two guests left, and the vineyard became quiet again. On weekdays, she has nothing to do but go to practice equestrianism. After this appearance in the arena, Angelina's value has increased by five times. As a 6-year-old horse, there is still a lot of room for appreciation, as long as the performance in the arena is good enough.

Like the Hannover horse "Gina" that Joanna is currently focusing on training, its purchase price is 350,000 US dollars, which seems to be a bit far from the top international equestrian horses, but it is only four years old, and top horses are generally over ten years old , These six years are an opportunity to enhance value.

As long as the riders are skilled, the training methods are scientific, the horses have good genes, and they are smart enough, it is not too difficult to raise $1 million. If you ride it to win a few international races, two or three million will be fine. Auctioning it to a local tycoon in the Middle East may win a higher bid.

An Feng also found a warm-blooded horse for training. He is not as enthusiastic as Joanna. Riding a horse is just for recreation and relaxation. He is even considering taking a shortcut: genetic modification. If it can memorize complex commands more than a dozen times, it is simply a hang in the dressage competition.

The equestrian training has been transferred to the Blue Sky Racecourse. The 150 acres of idle land of the winery is being transformed to meet the style of top wineries. There are gardens and grasslands and cultural display areas... In short, it is high-end, and there is a leisure area for the owner and friends of the winery. Leisure use.

In addition, the event planning for the racecourse has already come out, including hot-blooded horses, professional jockeys, funds for the racecourse, and various complicated gaming operation procedures... Hansen and his assistant are responsible for handling it, and it is expected to start next year. Horse racing activities will be held for three days on June and June.

A few days later, An Feng received a report that a sample of Ans Industry's 3D printer came out.

After waiting for so long, he finally had something to do, so he brought his bodyguards and pilots and came to the company in 40 minutes. In the research and development area, I saw a 3D printer that claims to be able to print a variety of metals and composite materials. The technology is very advanced-the technology that is burned with money is naturally advanced.

The current difficulty of 3D printing is strength. It can print plastic or metal, but the strength is not enough. Now the printer has changed this dilemma, simulating the formation conditions of steelmaking or other alloys, accurate to the pressure and temperature, and turning it into a small smelting center.

The person in charge of the project is named Francis Rich, who was recommended by Freeman—An Feng’s inner reaction at the beginning was "Do you have friends too?"... After personally receiving Rich, I found that the ancients’ summary of "smells like each other" is really reasonable, Rich is also a tech nerd.

This guy is said to have a Ph.D. at a young age, and he skipped school. Anyway, he saw that the robot company has a future, and Anshi Industrial is recruiting people. Here are the funds he needs, the correct theory and direction, and a good environment. You don't need to order takeaway, you will be recruited successfully.

The only difference is that this person's communication skills are not bad.

Rich's unwashed hair looks waxed, but he doesn't care: "Look over here, sir, it's our latest achievement!"

The one in front of An Feng is not outstanding. It is a mediocre machine like an ugly duckling, and it is similar in size to the 3D printers on the market.

Rich said proudly: "It can print a model up to 30cm×30cm×30cm. The most notable point is that it solves the problem of hardness of the material. The three-dimensional printing on the market can only be used as a model to a large extent. Sintering a plastic model is naturally simple, but it is particularly difficult to print a high-hardness drill bit. After we used the laminar arc plasma beam, we made a breakthrough!"

According to the technical house, the printer currently uses eight sets of printing nozzles. Different nozzles can use different metal materials, and use plasma beams for metal sintering. It can generate temperatures ranging from 200-15,000 degrees, and has higher resolution. Excellent hardness.

But blowing 10,000 times is not enough to directly dry the effect and intuitively.

An Feng understands the principle better than anyone else, so he asked, "What about the actual effect?"

Rich liked this kind of refreshment. With a wave of his hand, the assistants called up the CAD model of the electric drill bit stored in the computer, connected the printer, started the machine, and sharpened the knife to the pigs and sheep. During the waiting time, An Feng went to discuss some details with Rich, such as the cost?

"Six million dollars to develop it so far." Rich wrote lightly.

It seems that this guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp. An Feng looked at the list of materials, and all of them chose the best ones, such as a part that can be produced in the United States. In pursuit of perfection, they went to foreign countries to customize it... It can be said that the machine is indeed made of money.

But it is a kind of breakthrough to be able to burn as much as it is worth.

After more than an hour, the drill bit was finished, and Rich, who was wearing gloves, took out a drill bit that had just cooled down. An hour ago, it was just a pile of iron powder, tungsten powder, and carbide raw materials, but after being fired by plasma, it became the hard drill bit of a drilling machine.

The way to test the results is also extremely simple and crude - use an electric drill to test.

The assistant installed the drill bit without saying a word, and made a few holes in the concrete wall for testing. The dust was flying, and the effect was just right. The hardness of the 3D-printed drill bit was already comparable to that of traditional manufacturing methods. This leads to a breakthrough. The concept of the era: high-strength metal printing.

Even the printer can handle something as difficult as a drill bit, but what about other more precise parts? It must not be difficult, such as car engine parts? Need an integrally subtractively manufactured part? Or firearms, etc. with the 3D printing boom, is there a problem?

Rich's answer is no.

He said: "Sir, if you have time to wait, we can scan and print a pistol and have it tested by a professional tester."

An Feng was very interested: "You guys try it!"

"No problem!" Rich said. "We have to find a gun. Somebody go to the gun shop and see if they have any?"

An Feng was speechless. This guy also had a misunderstanding about normal life. The San Jose area is the area with the strictest gun control. It is said that California is strict, but it is only when you come to San Jose that you know who is stricter. If a novice buys a gun, after waiting ten days, he will get the bad news of being rejected.

"You can't buy it." An Feng shook his head at them, "Let my bodyguard come."

Neil came to An Feng in three steps and two steps, An Feng said: "Borrow your pistol."

Without any hesitation, Neil took out a Czech CZ75 pistol from the holster in his suit, turned the handle and aimed it at An Feng, took the heavy gun, unloaded the magazine skillfully, checked the chamber to make sure there were no bullets Finally, hand the pistol to Rich's assistants, who are going to scan it.

An Feng reminded again: "Are you sure that the overall scan can take into account the parts inside?"

"Can't it?" Rich didn't know either.

An Feng paused, walked over with a blank expression, and personally disassembled the pistol into parts, leaving the barrel, firing pin, firing pin spring, recoil spring, recoil spring guide and other key parts to them. In fact, whether the 3D printing pistol can be successful depends on the forging level of the barrel.

"You scan these, build models, and print them out!" An Feng ordered.

Rich nodded: "Please wait."

This is not a wait, from scanning to printing out, at least three or four hours, An Feng went to the sixth floor to drink a cup of tea, eat some snacks, hang out, go to the marketing department to chat with Daisy, Say hello to other MMs she hasn't seen before, and finally turn back.

The work is almost done. After the parts are printed, An Feng installs these printed parts on the original pistol, fills the magazine, and finds a laboratory with good sound insulation. When he raised the pistol, Neil Reminding: "Sir, the barrel of this product has a high rate of explosion."

"Then you come." An Feng turned to him.

Neil was speechless... An Feng smiled: "Just kidding you!"

He raised his hand towards the target and squeezed the trigger. He blew out the bullets with a dozen bangs, and blew on the smoking barrel like a cowboy in the west. , he knew that there would be no problem with the process of printing the barrel, unless there was a problem with the model.

Looking at it now, the performance is very good, and he let other bodyguards test. Their guns feel good, and they are all fed by bullets. You can know the quality, accuracy, etc. of a random gun with dozens of bullets... In the end, Neil’s conclusion is that it feels the same as the original one.

"It may take thousands of rounds to wear down the life of the barrel before we can judge whether the accuracy is good or not." Neil said conservatively.

An Feng knew the technology was successful. He can now spend tens of millions to create a larger 3D printer that can print cars, and then create high-precision parts, robots, or other things that are difficult to do in the traditional subtractive manufacturing field in batches.
