He was once a renowned mecha master. However, an accident caused him to be reborn.

In his new life, it felt as though he had entered a parallel world.

Chapter 242 Modular Parts (First Update)

The people in the maintenance department do not participate in the design of mechas, but they have been doing maintenance for a long time and have disassembled many mechas. They have a certain ability to distinguish the parts of mechas. The drawings provided by Lin Tao can all directly form the outer shell components of the mecha.

"That's right. Kongli has been living in the starry sky. The shell on its body is extremely hard. Ordinary thermal weapons cannot penetrate it directly. Even if metal of the same hardness collides with it, it will only cause a temporary dent at most, and it is impossible to make it explode. After soaking, it can withstand laser cannons below 400mm. These two points alone can make the mecha have a defensive capability that is no less than that of a giant starry sky ship." Lin Tao said.

As the head of the Department of Materials, Lu Xuewen took a deep breath when he heard this, and his eyes flashed with lightning. He almost turned around on the spot and ran to get the materials.

"Lin Tao, what about me? I can't be here just to help deal with the corpses of these monsters, right?" Seeing that Lu Xuewen already had a task, Tian Zhi pointed at himself and asked.

Lin Tao smiled slightly. The reason he originally called Tian Zhi was just to ask him to come and help monitor the miners making mechas, but now, he actually had a new task to assign to Tian Zhi.

For neural circuit mechas, a lot of new technologies are needed, and the pre-sale of K223 can only delay the three major giants for a period of time at most, and it is impossible to delay it for a year or two. It is impossible for Lin Tao to spend a lot of time to produce this type of mecha.

Therefore, Lin Tao plans to directly change the type and produce component-based mechas.

The so-called componentized parts mean that a mecha is disassembled into multiple parts and then assembled. In this way, componentization reduces the technical difficulty. Once damaged, you only need to come back and directly replace the parts of the same component, as well as replace the energy blocks and ammunition, just like a new mecha, and you can go out again. This not only saves time than the production of the entire machine, but also increases the maintenance speed on the battlefield.

Originally, Lin Tao had already produced two suitable mecha design drawings, but at this time, he did not intend to take them out, but wanted to go back and modify them.

"Dean Tian Zhi, please wait for two days. You will have a new task soon." Lin Tao said.

Tian Zhi frowned, looking puzzled.

"Don't worry, this is a brand-new concept of the aircraft. Once it goes on the battlefield, the work of your maintenance personnel will be greatly improved." Lin Tao said with a smile.

"Is this really possible?" Tian Zhi was surprised and blinked as if he couldn't believe it.

"Okay, you all help deal with the corpses of these monsters in the next two days." After Lin Tao said this, he turned and left.

After all, a group of mecha designers looked at each other with strange expressions. Wasn't the purpose of Lin Tao asking them to come over to design a new mecha?

He just said a few words, whether useful or not, and then asked them to help deal with the body, then disappeared.

Do you really think that their mecha designers are all coolies? However, Lin Tao has already left, and the deans of the former First Mecha Academy's Maintenance Department and Materials Department are working personally. What else can they say? They can only follow Lu Xuewen obediently.

Back in the aerospace spacecraft laboratory, Lin Tao immediately took out the two mechas in the watch and redesigned them. At this time, Lin Tao already had a new idea.

Modular parts! This method was proposed by Liu Xueying, the mentor of this body. Before Liu Xueying left with Master Gu Lei, Lin Tao gave her a prototype file of similar information in the form of a paper.

In Lin Tao's opinion, since Liu Xueying was the initiator of this plan, with her brain, she would definitely be able to come up with corresponding ideas in a short period of time. This information was like a guide, which directly brought her thinking back to the right track and saved a lot of time.

Lin Tao is more familiar with parts modularization than anyone else. After all, he has participated in the design of neural circuit bodies in later generations. Although he was not the main designer, he has had some exposure to it.

The modularization of parts is the prototype of the neural circuit body. If we ignore the technical aspects, the difference between the two is not that big.

What's more, the improved version of Tianjia Shenjiang proposed by Lin Tao before already had some meaning.

After taking out the two sets of design drawings again, Lin Tao quickly used the capacitive pen to cut apart the main body of the mecha and then sorted out the internal circuits.

Compared with the neural circuit bodies of later generations, the structure of these pure electrical wire lines still took Lin Tao a lot of effort. In the end, Lin Tao even used his watch to communicate with Peng Haokong and Tong Xuelin.

These two guys personally participated in and redesigned the improved version of Tianjia Shenjiang on their own.

With the participation of these two people, Lin Tao immediately solved many of his troubles.

After two days and two nights, Lin Tao finally solved the problem of the two machines.

Looking at the two different mecha designs in his hand, even Tong Xuelin, the founder of the TR series mechas, was greatly shocked: "Lin Tao, these mechas are all similar to the improved design of the Tianjia Shenjiang. Are you really not afraid that these mechas will have design flaws?"

Lin Tao was amused. He crossed his arms over his chest and asked with a half-smile, "Oh? What defect made our great designer Tong so worried?"

Swish! Tong Xuelin's face suddenly turned red.

If Lin Tao had not been present, it would be understandable that he praised this great designer. After all, he was one of the designers who personally designed the improved version of Tianjia Shenjiang, and many major design plans were handled by him personally.

However, all of this was done under the guidance of Lin Tao. Without Lin Tao's guidance, there would be no design, let alone an idea.

In front of Lin Tao, he really doesn't deserve the title of great designer.

Peng Haokong on the side couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.

"This... this..." Tong Xuelin hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Lin Tao, if this purely assembled aircraft collides with a fully designed aircraft, will it be smashed into pieces on the spot?"

As he spoke, he made an exaggerated gesture with his hands.

"Hmm?" Upon hearing this, Peng Haokong could no longer laugh, and he also examined this issue formally.

Lin Tao laughed. As time was tight and it was to be designed by the two people in front of him, he kept everything simple for the improved version of Tianjia God General.

But now it's different.

There is still some time left before the three giants attack, so Lin Tao does not plan to use the same parts combination as the improved version of Tianjia Shenjiang.

What's more, the new machine he designed at the moment was not a TR variation, so there was no need to worry about the issues of differentiation and combination.

Lin Tao pointed to a mechanism similar to an articulator on the design drawing and said, "Take a look here. What is the difference between this and the improved version of the Heavenly Armor God General?"

Peng Haokong and Tong Xuelin immediately leaned forward.

Since there are wires between the parts, the articulation frame not only has the parts to fit together, but also has a connector specifically for the wires, which can connect the wires between the two parts.

The connector of this circuit was designed by Peng Haokong himself, but after listening to Tong Xuelin's words, he couldn't remember the connection between the two parts for a moment.

At this moment, he burst out laughing: "Lao Tong, your worry is unnecessary. Look at these bite parts, they are like two parts biting together, how could they be easily separated by a collision?"

Tong Xuelin was very embarrassed.

Perhaps the long hours of continuous work and past experience had curbed his thinking, so his thoughts at this moment were still on the initial design of the improved Tianjia Shenjiang. Once Lin Tao pointed it out, Tong Xuelin immediately understood.

"Now, we just need to separate the various components and let the miners produce them separately. For the assembly, we will use our own people. In this way, even if we disband these miners, the outside world will not be able to obtain our technology from them." Lin Tao explained.

These parts seem to be quite complete, but there is still a certain gap from the final assembly. Even if other people get these mecha components, they may not be able to assemble the same model.

This is another advantage of parts modularization.

The snap-fitting parts need to be connected using certain techniques and cannot be snapped into place directly. This is also a secret among various mecha companies after the modularization of parts emerged in later generations.

The method Lin Tao adopted at this time was also the special bite technique of the Four Elephants Mecha Company that was preserved in later generations.

It is a pity that the mecha at this time still uses electrical wiring, otherwise this part can also be used to prevent disassembly, making the modular parts more personalized.

When the modularization of parts was promoted in later generations, due to the war years, this aspect became increasingly strict, and in the end a unified model was integrated, which finally solved this problem.

Of course, at that time, it was already the end of the war with the eight major giants.

When parts modularization first appeared, each mecha company had a sense of crisis and deliberately designed assembly modules and line connection methods that were different for each mecha company.

This method was used until the Interstellar Federation officially announced its unification, at which time the major mecha companies began to make detailed changes to the parts, forming a way to distinguish between the major mecha companies.

However, this is all a matter for later generations.

Suddenly, Lin Tao reached out and touched his nose: "Tong Xuelin, if our Mingyuan Star is recognized by the Interstellar Federation in the future, remember to have people register this kind of bite piece and line continuator with the Interstellar Federation."

Due to wars in later generations, these components were unified into a unified model at the request of the Interstellar Federation, but it is different now, as this is the technology that Lin Tao came up with.

Once it is registered with the Interstellar Federation and a unified model is formed, then in the future, no matter which mecha company produces the same type of machine, it will need to pay a certain registration fee to the Four Elephants Mecha Company in these two aspects.

This is something that can make you sit and count money until dawn.

When Tong Xuelin and Peng Haokong heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.
