Chapter 511 Ironworks (4)

Lin Ze made a bracket directly on the top of the wok-iron stove. A large round roller was hung in the middle of the bracket. There were three wrought-iron sticks extending obliquely towards the hearth of the wok-iron stove. The big round roller At the back, the waterwheel is connected to let the waterwheel provide power. ?

Once there is a need to fry iron, just release the gate and start the water truck.

Once you get the proper steel you need, just close the upstream sluice gate.

In this way, not only the safety of personnel can be guaranteed, but also the efficiency of frying iron and the quality of steel are extremely high.

In the past, pig iron was cooled into ingots and then heated to smelt mature iron or steel. The technology Lin Ze is using now is to directly fry the molten pig iron from the blast furnace into mature iron or steel. This ironmaking method is the first time it has appeared in China. above the mainland.

With wrought iron, you can directly make farm tools such as hoes and shovels. Of course, the production process requires forging, carburizing and quenching.

This is because wrought iron is very soft, has strong malleability, and has excellent processing performance.

Since Lin Ze used water power in the iron frying furnace, of course Lin Ze would not forget that he directly used water power to forge weapons or other things.

Compared with water power, human power is indeed much worse, so Lin Ze built fifteen forging furnaces lined up near the Xisha River.

The basic structure of a forging furnace is very simple, and ordinary blacksmiths can manufacture it. In fact, this thing is no different from the forging furnaces in blacksmith repair shops that appear in all rural areas, or in ancient costume movies on TV.

It is just an iron forging table, but the iron forging table of the forging furnace used by hydraulic power needs to be enlarged and thickened.

The increase is for forging large iron parts, and the thickening is for heat preservation. After all, it needs to be used for a long time, so it saves fuel.

Next to each forging furnace, there is a hydraulic forging hammer. Under the forging hammer is a thick anvil, under which is a thick oak wood plinth, and below that is a pedestal made of black gold stone unique to Heishi Mountain.

Such a multi-layer composite force-bearing structure can withstand the huge impact force of the falling forging hammer.

The strength of the black gold stone is stronger than that of the most advanced cement in modern times, so there is no need to worry about the quality of the base.

In these forges,

Some are large and some are small.

The large forging hammer weighs about three hundred catties, has a stroke of three feet, and drops the hammer 50 times per minute; the small forging hammer weighs only 10 catties, has a stroke of two feet, and drops the hammer 150 times per minute.

The large forging hammer is used for rough machining, while the small forging hammer is used for finishing machining. In fact, it is not very refined. After all, there are no modern facilities here, so it can only be done manually, and it is still hammered. Therefore, the fine details inside The extent can be imagined.

After all, the processing technology of the hydraulic forging hammer is essentially the same as that of the blacksmiths hammering each other, only the efficiency has been improved a lot!

...................................................

Blast furnaces, blowers, hydraulic forging hammers, frying iron furnaces, pulley blocks, etc., these things are completely incomprehensible to master ironmakers such as Shen Lian and Gao Yan.

Shen Lian and Gao Yan could still understand something about blast furnaces and blowers, but the improvements in steelmaking methods and the power of the hydraulic facilities behind them finally made them completely unrecognizable.

For example, Lin Ze used high-alumina clay to fire many large earthen pots. Both Gao Yan and Shen Lian had seen some brick kilns before, and they had worked in such kilns before. They can be said to be familiar with this matter. of.

Therefore, when Lin Ze was preparing to refine the iron furnace made of high-alumina clay, Shen Lian and Gao Yan took over directly.

They first crushed the high-alumina clay, then added water and sieved it into fine mud, and then shaped it by hand on a rapidly rotating wooden plate like a plastic porcelain body, and finally fired it in a special high-temperature kiln for ten hours. The 'earth pot' made of aluminum clay, that is, the frying iron stove, is freshly baked.

Shen Lian and Gao Yan of the previous refractory bricks understood it very well, but they didn't understand in their hearts that there were so many such big 'earth pots'.

What is the use of these 'clay pots' refined by Lin Ze? Can they be used to make steel? If this is the case, isn't it almost the same as cooking? !

However, after Lin Ze's explanation and a personal test, Shen Lian and Gao Yan were completely convinced. They never imagined that they could refine refined iron, that is, steel, so easily.

Next, the effect of the water conservancy forging hammer directly stunned Shen Lian and Gao Yan. They looked at Lin Ze with conviction and fanaticism in their eyes.

As an iron smelter, what could be better than following a master like Lin Ze, who can continuously come up with extremely magical and effective iron smelting methods!

From this moment on, Lin Ze is the existence of the Craftsman God in the hearts of Shen Lian and Gao Yan!

In this way, under the fanatical eyes of Shen Lian and Gao Yan, blast furnaces, waterwheels, frying iron furnaces, workers' dormitories, and cooling towers were all built one by one, and the road leading to the pipeline from the iron factory was also built, and , Lin Ze also built a gate at the main entrance of the ironworks.

It says 'Huangsha Town's No. 1 Ironworks'!

................................................... .........

Ten days later, the ironworks has been preliminarily established, and the iron ore and charcoal required for ironmaking have been prepared. Therefore, Lin Ze is going to start the first iron and steel smelting of the ironworks today. .

Because it was the first time the ironworks was opened, Lin Ze came in person, and Lin Ze's confidantes like Wang Ming and Qiu Kai all came.

When the opening of the ironworks was so important, Wang Ming and the others, as Lin Ze's confidantes, of course had to come.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Ze and the others had already arrived at the iron smelting plant. At this time, it was time to ignite the iron smelting!

"Gao Yan, let's start!" Lin Ze said to Gao Yan beside him with a hint of excitement on his face.

This is Lin Ze's first ironworks, but it will definitely not be the last. In the future, countless ironworks will be built.

With these ironworks, Lin Ze will run rampant in the world in the future!

"Yes, my lord!" Gao Yan replied excitedly, and then he turned around to give an order.

"My lord has an order to start iron smelting!" Gao Yan shouted loudly.

Then, I saw the workers below started to smelt iron in an orderly manner.

These workers are able to be so methodical because a few days ago, they have simulated and drilled many times in accordance with the relevant operating procedures for ironmaking formulated by Lin Ze. It can be said that such procedures have been deeply engraved into their hearts. In their minds, that's why they were able to proceed in such an orderly manner, and there was no rush in the middle of the process.

The first blast furnace had been baked at low temperature for eight days before. After careful inspection, there was no suspicious crack in the blast furnace.

Of course, Lin Ze in the middle also checked it with his mental strength, and there are indeed no cracks. The quality of this blast furnace is excellent.

Pulley blocks, flywheels, waterwheel bearings, pulleys, piston bellows, and other moving parts are also extremely sophisticated. I have simulated them several times before, and each time the situation is very good. Now Shen Lian and the others directly repair these parts. There is enough lubricating oil, and there is no blockage in operation.

"Grandfather bless you, stone can be turned into iron, iron can be made into steel, grandpa bless you...!" Shen Lian twisted up three incense sticks with both hands, lit them on the candle, raised them reverently above his head, bowed three times, and then Insert it into an incense burner that was set up earlier.

The mainland of China is a feudal society, so the people here are very feudal. Before doing some big things, they will pray to the heavens so that things can go smoothly.

If it was before, before Lin Ze got the seed world of the plane, Lin Ze would have disdained Shen Lian and his feudal activities in his heart. However, after Lin Ze got the seed world of the plane, he clearly knew that the world After there were gods, demons, and souls, Lin Ze no longer objected to Shen Lian's feudal activities.

After having the seed of the plane, he must be a god or immortal in the future. Now if Lin Ze denies Shen Lian and his feudal activities, it is equivalent to denying himself.

Of course, Lin Ze would not object to Shen Lian and the others after their feudal activities, but when Shen Lian and the others started to worship God, he did not participate in the worship.

In the future, he will be God, and the God outside does not have the qualifications for him to pay homage.

Therefore, when Shen Lian and Gao Yan paid homage to God, Lin Ze watched the whole process with great interest.

When the ceremony between Shen Lian and Gao Yan was over, Gao Yan directly picked up the resin torch and handed it to Lin Ze.

"My lord, you should light the first fire!"

"Hehe, then I'd rather be respectful than obedient!" Lin Ze took the torch with a smile, and then threw it directly into the blast furnace from the taphole at the bottom.

"Boom......!" Lin Ze just threw the torch into the combustion chamber of the blast furnace, and the combustion chamber began to burn violently. (It has been preheated before, and the combustion chamber has already reached the ignition point. Now that Lin Ze’s torch is thrown in, of course, the charcoal in the combustion chamber is directly ignited.)

The burning in the combustion chamber was extremely violent. Soon, Lin Ze and the others saw bursts of blue smoke coming out of the opening of the combustion chamber. Gao Yan had already been lying outside the observation port of the combustion chamber, squinting Looking inside with closed eyes, he said loudly to Lin Ze: "My lord, it's very hot!"

After finishing speaking, Gao Yan directly closed the trap door.

"Very good!" Lin Ze said with a smile.

The burning in the combustion chamber is equivalent to a good start! (..)
