The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics is not only a stage for The Olympic athletes to compete, but also a demonstration of the host's soft and hard power. Science and technology to help the Winter Olympics, Jilin decisive shot!
On September 10, 2021, at the Beijing Capital Gymnasium, the first domestic snowmobile jointly developed and manufactured by China FAW and China Aerospace Science and Technology Group was delivered to the State General Administration of Sport as scheduled, achieving a "breakthrough of zero" for domestic snowmobiles and becoming another shining business card of "Made in Jilin"!
The national team snowmobile program has a huge home advantage, and the players' performance has improved rapidly. However, China's snowmobile movement started late, the research and development foundation is weak, and the manufacture of snowmobile equipment has been monopolized by foreign countries due to its high technical content and complex manufacturing process.
The use of domestic snowmobiles to achieve participation and awards is expected by all.
The domestic snowmobiles delivered this time have two types of snowmobiles and 4-person snowmobiles, which will appear at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and become the driving cars of the Chinese snowmobile national team, helping Chinese Winter Olympic athletes to gallop on the ice and snow and point the sword to the championship.
Review the manufacturing process of the first domestic snowmobile and explain the "ingenuity to build dreams"!
In 2021, China FAW undertook the task of developing a snowmobile for the Winter Olympics, what is the biggest problem? Can cross-border innovation and technology be integrated?
The biggest problem facing China FAW is almost zero awareness and almost zero data accumulation.
To this end, China FAW's fine division of labor and efficient synergy make the snowmobile development project perfectly follow the standardized positive development process that is as rigorous as That of China FAW's complete vehicle products.
In the field of research and development alone, the division of labor is refined into eight major areas such as general layout, modeling, body, chassis, CAE, trial production, testing, and painting.
Structural engineers and performance engineers conducted 11 special interviews with more than 20 coaches and athletes of the Chinese snow team. secondly. By combing through the use of scenes divided into 3 major scenes and 10 sub-scenes. Finally, the list of 46 functional requirements and 26 performance requirements is decomposed, forming a preliminary understanding and cognition of the snowmobile.
The project was officially approved on March 20, the layout plan was frozen on May 20, the design plan was frozen on June 10, the assembly was completed on August 15, and the delivery was successfully delivered on September 10...
FAW gave full play to the advantages of Jilin equipment manufacturing industry, under the efficient coordination of the entire team, the snowmobile development project was completed in less than a year, which also highlighted the "Jilin speed" and announced the long-term monopoly of China's snowmobile equipment by foreign brands.
In the process of development, China FAW and Aerospace Science and Technology jointly broke through one technical barrier after another! Let the first snow car developed and manufactured by Chinese from scratch, cross-border out of the circle, control more than 20 key technologies in the fields of vehicle, body, steering, braking and other fields, realize the CAE analysis of working conditions setting, fastener selection, structural strength optimization, carbon fiber optimization, welding durability analysis of the five major breakthroughs, breaking the technical monopoly of foreign brands, for the Chinese national snow team, snowmobile athletes brought low wind resistance, high reliability, easy to control of the domestic snow car. At the same time, China FAW was also awarded the honorary title of "China Ice and Snow Science and Technology Joint Research Unit" by the State General Administration of Sport.
The advent of this domestic snowmobile has truly made the entire "lifeline" of the snowmobile, a high-tech sports equipment, firmly grasped in China's hands.
The first snow car delivered by China FAW shows the strength of the powerful and unstoppable "Made in Jilin", and will also take this as a starting point to continue to promote independent innovation and high-quality development of the automobile industry, and use Chinese technology to help Chinese athletes raise the five-star red flag in the Winter Olympic Games.
