Chapter 588 Mining Spider Titan

    ??

    Not having enough resources to produce mobile bases is the biggest problem Chen Xin faces when he wants to promote his plan.

    This is like playing a construction game. If you want to expand production and construction and improve the building level, you first need more resources.

    If you want to obtain more resources, you must either build more mines or miners in the game, or upgrade mining equipment. In reality, the same is true.

    It is not that the country does not have enough mines, but changes in the natural environment have caused many open-pit mines and small mines to no longer be used. The output of the mines that are still operating has also declined due to the impact of the natural environment, causing the country to  Not enough resources are available at the moment.

    There is of course more than one way to solve this problem, but among the effective ways, improving mining tools is undoubtedly a good choice.

    The research center where Chen Xin works has related projects in this area among its previous work.

    "Is this the mining Titan you designed?" Chen Xin looked at the machine that was crushing a rock for testing in front of him, covered the noise-cancelling headphones on his head, and shouted loudly to the researchers on the side through the microphone.  .

    The researcher nodded and replied affirmatively to Chen Xin: "Yes, after our testing, the human form is not necessary, so we adopted a more reasonable structural design."

    No wonder the researcher said this, because the Titan in front of him is obviously fundamentally different from the ones previously designed and manufactured by Chen Xin.

    Four spider-like mechanical legs maintain the balance of the machine. As for the machine itself, it looks very much like the spider drow from the fantasy adventure game that Chen Xin played before. A kind of spider-like drow that saws off the lower half of the human body and digs it out.  Evil creature inside a giant spider with a brain.

    The upper part of the simple exoskeleton-like body wraps around the driver. It doesn't look much different from an ordinary exoskeleton, except that it is larger and has a large pickaxe attached to the arm as a mine gun.  Other than that, nothing special.

    But combined with the four legs on the lower body and the mine bucket on the back like a spider's abdomen, this thing really looks like a spider drow.

    However, the appearance is not important, because from the structure of this thing, this structure is indeed much more convenient than the humanoid Titan originally designed by Chen Xin.

    The stability brought by the four legs allows the machine body to carry one more ore bucket without adding additional balance design and load, and the traffic capacity brought by the four spider-shaped legs is not comparable to that of two legs or wheels.

    And for underground mines, this was enough to decide to design the mining Titan as a spider.

    Facts have also proved that the shape of the spider is indeed very practical. In the obstacle test environment, a four-legged spider can obviously run much faster than a two-legged person.

    And the mining efficiency of this mining Titan is also very good. While Chen Xin was talking to the researcher, he had already broken the rock blocks for testing and put them all into the mining bucket behind him.

    "This design is good, but I remember that spiders have eight legs, right?" Seeing that the test was completed, Chen Xin took off the headphones on his head and joked to the researcher on the side.

    The researcher also took off his headphones like Chen Xin. When he heard what he said, he smiled sheepishly, and then explained to Chen Xin: "Actually, we built an eight-legged Titan at the beginning.  Yes, that prototype was much better than the current one in terms of working efficiency and traffic capacity. When we tested it, it could even walk on walls, and its mining efficiency was more than twice that of the current one.

    Not only that, it can also provide good protection for the driver. Even outdoors, the good sealing structure can resist the cold and can withstand collapse or splashing gravel.  "

    In fact, the four-legged mining Titan in front of us is hardly a true Titan.

    Although in terms of volume, it is not very different from the previous Titan made by Chen Xin, considering that this mining model also has a mining hopper that accounts for one-third of the body, its body volume is  You can imagine how young it is.

    The lower body of the machine body and the mine bucket are not equipped with armor or outer covers. They look like they are all exposed. The upper body looks more like a set of exoskeletons were removed and directly connected. There is no real Titan that can fully protect the driver.  Cockpit to accommodate packages.

    Rather than saying this is a Titan, it is better to say it is an upgraded and enhanced exoskeleton.

    "But compared to the exoskeleton, this mining model is indeed much greater in terms of power performance and output power. It has exceeded the scope of the exoskeleton and can be classified as a Titan.

      Although this can only be regarded as a beggar¡¯s version of Titan.

    When Chen Xin followed the researcher to the nearby warehouse, he saw the prototype he mentioned.

    Eight slender support legs stand on the floor, supporting the upper body, which is only slightly slender compared to a normal Titan. Four mechanical arms are connected to four pickaxes, and the lower body is equipped with a spider just like a real spider.  For Da'ao, the broken ore can be swallowed directly into the "belly", a fully covered ore cabin hanging behind it.

    If the eight-legged Titan in front of you is described as an SR character in a card game, the four-legged one outside can only be regarded as n-card dog food compared to it.

    "Wow, this guy's design aesthetic is great! If you add a little more feminine design, you can use it to cheat money in mobile games." Chen Xin saw the joke, walked to the Titan, and took a picture of it  A supportive foot, full of admiration for it.

    However, he did not ask the researcher why he did not continue to study this one, but wanted to build the four-legged N-card outside.

    Because the reason is obvious, just like the SR character in the game that requires krypton gold to draw cards, the eight-legged Titan in front of you is obviously much more expensive than the four-legged one outside.

    After trying to open the cockpit, Chen Xin sat in and felt the feel of the ride. Then he asked the researcher standing aside: "How many four-legged models can be built to build one of this type?  "

    Although Chen Xin did not give a specific cost, he was able to estimate that the cost of manufacturing such a standard Titan without his participation would be quite high, and the simplification of the four-legged Titan  version, maybe the cost is not as expensive as the cockpit he is sitting in now.

    "One standard Titan can make five mining models." The researcher said the reason why they gave up mass production of the standard Titan.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
