Leveling Up With My Pet

Chapter 432 Metal work Marvel !

Chen Shen found himself amidst a crowd of onlookers, and a tumultuous and intricate web of emotions weighed down his heart. A profound sigh slipped past his lips as he grappled with the mind-boggling sequence of occurrences that had transpired at Taishan Knife. It had struck him with an impact akin to a sledgehammer's force, an unexpected blow that had left his professional esteem fractured into countless shards scattered amidst the chaos of his thoughts and feelings.

For more than ten years, Chen Shen has invested the entirety of his professional life in cutting tools. He had been an ardent and steadfast champion of Shante Knives, harbouring an unshakable conviction that they represented the epitome of excellence in the cutting tool domain. This true loyalty, however, was subjected to the most unforeseen and challenging trial, ultimately engendering within him a profound and unsettling sense of disillusionment.

"Did you see the test situation of the Taishan knife next to it?" Chen Shen couldn't help but inquire, his voice tinged with disbelief as he sought some semblance of understanding amidst the chaos.

His colleague, equally perplexed, replied, "I saw it, but I must confess, I really don't understand what all the commotion is about."

The fact that his own comrades were as bewildered as he was only served to deepen Chen Shen's sense of bitterness. "That's what they were celebrating," he uttered, his voice laced with a strange mixture of awe and disappointment. "Their set of knives processed more than a dozen parts in one go at an astounding speed of 3000 rpm. What's more, the knives showed no signs of wear, and the processed parts emerged unscathed and visually stunning, fully meeting all quality standards."

The disbelief that swept through the crowd was nothing short of seismic. "This is impossible!" someone exclaimed incredulously.

Members of the Shante team, who had prided themselves on their expertise and dedication, stood dumbfounded. For years, they had assumed that if any revolutionary alloy cutting tools were to emerge, they would naturally hail from the Shante brand, not from the Taishan Cutting Tool Group.

Two foreign representatives from Shante exchanged a wordless glance and cautiously inched closer to Taishan Knife, eager to eavesdrop on the buzz.

Amidst the commotion, the cheers continued as more parts were beautifully processed. "What number is this?" inquired one curious voice.

"It is already the 21st piece," another voice chimed in, "and the tool has not shown any signs of wear. It appears that there will be no issue processing another 21 parts."

The sense of disbelief coursing through the onlookers was palpable. "My God, today is truly a day for the history books. A set of alloy tools that can process dozens of parts consecutively, I've never seen anything like it," one man marvelled.

"And to think, these parts are all made of high-temperature alloys, notoriously challenging materials to machine," added another. "The Shante team, positioned nearby, is testing their own knives, but I've heard they can only manage four parts with a set of knives before needing to regrind or replace the alloy blade."

"It's like a dream come true," mused yet another spectator. "When did our domestic alloy knives become this extraordinary?"

The spectacle drew an ever-growing crowd, both inside and outside the venue, like moths drawn to a mesmerizing flame. As the faces of the two Shante representatives darkened, they knew they had been utterly humiliated.

With faces painted in defeat, the two Shante envoys slunk back to their own camp, delivering the crushing news to their colleagues. The realization that their imported alloy knives had failed catastrophically gnawed at them.

The sense of humiliation was inescapable. Shante, a brand known for its dedication to craftsmanship, had been blindsided by Taishan's unprecedented display. Their only option was an ignominious retreat.

As the afternoon wore on, the batch of parts underwent CNC drilling and milling, a process that would have taken two to three days elsewhere but was completed in a mere half-day, thanks to Taishan's revolutionary tools.

"This is truly remarkable," one worker marvelled as they examined the beautifully processed parts. "There's barely any wear and tear on this set of knives."

"Absolutely amazing," another agreed, nodding in approval. "Today, we've witnessed something truly extraordinary."

In awe of the astonishing performance of Taishan's tools, the workers and technicians couldn't contain their admiration. It was as if they were witnessing a technological miracle unfold before their very eyes.

As the final part was processed and inspected, Feng Xuesong couldn't hide his satisfaction. "Mr. Han, the wear on the tool is minimal, and there's no need for any sharpening. We can easily process another 20 to 30 parts without a hitch."

Han Guang, standing beside him, shared in the jubilation. He knew at that moment that the black alloy, a gift from Brother Yong, had unlocked a realm of possibilities that would send shockwaves through the foreign tool manufacturing industry. He keenly understood that Shante was poised to dominate the medium and high-end alloy tool market with this revolutionary material.

The CNC turning process followed, with workers diligently preparing the machine and installing the shiny black alloy blade from Taishan Group. Modifications to the CNC machining program, led by Han Guang and Feng Xuesong, promised even greater efficiency.

"The turning speed is incredible!" someone exclaimed in awe.

"Look at that, at such a high speed, the lathe remains perfectly stable, and the sound is barely a whisper," another marvelled.

Initially, it had taken nearly an hour to complete a part using this process. However, the same task was accomplished in a mere 12 minutes with the revised parameters. When the protective door of the machine tool swung open, it revealed a stunning part with a mirror-like surface.

The experienced eyes of the crowd recognized that such a pristine surface indicated the alloy tool was exceptionally sharp. The awe in the public grew stronger.

All parts were inspected and found to be of impeccable quality. The alloy turning tools displayed minimal wear, further astounding the onlookers.

The next day, Han Guang held a comprehensive knife test report in his hand and brought along several samples of alloy knives. His excitement was palpable as he made his way to the Universal Building, eager to share this groundbreaking discovery with the world.
