Borisov: contracts for the reproduction of Tu-160М2

The Ministry of Defense signed two contracts with defense industry enterprises for the development of documentation and the reproduction of Tu-160М2 bombers, reports RIA News message of the Russian military department.

“We discussed the course of the reproduction of the Tu-160М2 aircraft. We have two contracts for the development of digital documentation and for the reproduction of the aircraft ",

quoted by the press service of the Deputy Minister of Defense Yuri Borisov.

He also said that the first engines for the strategist will be commissioned before the end of this year.

“By the end of this year, the plant must hand over the first four engines to us, and one more for qualification tests ... The Ministry of Defense will deliver the required number of engines for repairs, thereby loading the plant's technological capacities with orders for several years in advance. At the same time, we demanded from the plant workers to provide a schedule for reducing the cost of new NK-32-02 engines, which is associated with entering serial production, "said the Deputy Minister during a visit to the Samara enterprise" Kuznetsov ", which is implementing a reproduction program aviation engines.

Borisov also said that by now “64% of the design documentation has already been digitized and the digitization will be completed by the end of the year”.

Here you are deeply mistaken. For machines with digital control, specialists with advanced qualifications are hired - as a rule, with a good knowledge of foreign languages ​​and a higher education with a focus on software. Such a specialist takes part in setting up machine tools, and in case of a failure, he understands and generally serves up to 12 machines simultaneously. This is a different production culture and a vocational school with his mentality does not work here.
It is better to pay 80.000,00 rubles to one specialist than 12 mediocencies of 20.000,00 each.

In 1988, he himself, almost without any help, looking at how others work, mastered working on a computer. At that time there was such a package - DRAGON. Then there was other software. So, I mean something. The fact that the domestic automotive industry was buried, I'm sorry, it's not my fault. But regarding various new products, I try to keep abreast.

And are not the process engineers creating the program (manufacturing of the part) for these machines?
In principle, CAD used in production should generate a program for the machine. But control by technologists is still needed. IMHO, a purely personal opinion.

Quote: Alex_Tug

It was like that once. But modern CAD systems require an engineer and technologist skills as well. In general, I would venture to suggest that in modern construction, the "technologist" as a pure species is dying out. This is due to the fact that at the moment it makes no sense to design parts without taking into account production technology. Moreover, modern technologies directly affect the applied design and construction solutions. For example, the appearance of modern cars is directly related to bodywork technologies.

In his youth he came to the plant and worked on a CNC machine. What is meant by the overlay is not clear. In addition to the installation, I see no problems with fixing the workpiece and aligning along the axes with the subsequent determination of zero to start the cycle. Yes, I passed at least everyone else, I passed the exam to get the category. But a simple turner or milling machine operator for me was a more weighty specialist than any "automatic operator". I could set the program and the mode myself without a programmer and technologist for a simple part, but with a small series, you won't get off with CNC alone, although the department of technologists and programmers, it would seem, will remove all the problems. And the training of machine operators - I'm afraid in our ... .

Sorry, but a little funny to read such comments. Digitization of CD, has nothing to do with the manufacture of parts on CNC machines, "put in a drawing - received a part" - there is no such thing yet, there is "put in a mathematical model - received a part". But the documentation in the mat. the models have not yet been translated, and this is not always necessary.
As for personnel, too, "not everything is so simple" (c) the total amount of knowledge of an adjuster (operator) should be much higher than that of a universal machine operator, professional skills are simply different. And plus to this, the success or not the success of manufacturing parts on CNC machines depends more on the qualifications of the technologist-programmer, etc.
In fact, it’s necessary to file an article on this subject - such questions pop up quite often, and adequate answers are very rare.

But the documentation in the mat. the models have not yet been translated, and this is not always necessary.

So I kind of wrote about it. I just wrote about the fact that the digitization of the documentation has nothing to do with the restoration of production of the Tu-160 in our current realities. And about the fact that we still have a hard time with specialists who can work on CNC machines. At the same time, "I put in a drawing - I got a detail" - there are such technologies for a long time. To be a programmer, in order to work on automated machine tools of the latest generations, it is no longer necessary for twenty years. Even the Chinese produce such. But for this you need to draw not in Autocad, but, say, in CATIa, and this requires different qualifications from engineers. I am also aware of the fact that we have gaps, to put it mildly, with equipment capable of working with this technology. But if we want to catch up with someone, these gaps must be filled.

[engineer74]

In general, I agree with you, only a few clarifications: CATIA, like NX, heavy CAD / CAM / CAE systems, the basic principle is solid modeling, the developers themselves consider drawing modules as a rudiment. Therefore, the preparation of data for processing a part according to a drawing (not a model) is from the field of sexual perversions.
The main plus of these systems is the simultaneous work on the product of the designer, technologist, engineer and even figs who knows what the output gives (ideally) technological, i.e. cheap quality product in a short time.
As for personnel, I repeat, this is a separate topic, if only because at one enterprise different schemes for organizing the operation of CNC machines can be used. And, accordingly, in different divisions will be very different requirements for personnel. But the system of vocational education and secondary engineering is very pathetic.

[Verdun]

Quote: engineer74

I used the word "drawing" in a broad sense of the word, because concepts such as "solid 3D modeling" and "mathematical design of surface and wireframe" are for many site visitors (judging by their comments) - a secret behind seven seals. Indeed, even in production, there are experts who believe that 3D-MAX is the crown of creation. And vocational education is really a pity. True, there is a suspicion that there is already nothing to regret.

For me, SolidWorks is the crown of modeling and design.

SolidWorks and CATIA are two products from the same developer, Dasso Systems. Each is imprisoned for its own tasks. Since, due to the specifics of my work, I often deal with surfaces, I prefer Katya. In the latest versions of V5 and V6, it is quite convenient. And some tasks are probably more convenient than SolidWorks.

I join in general. BUT I would use the word "restore" without quotes

[Andrey57]

On "Kuznetsov" everything is also in order in terms of packing)) As for "it is worth handing over the engines", the article is about the installation batch and certification, all the R&D work has been done for a long time, we are talking about the serial production of new engines, moreover, " the old "NK-32" never stopped producing - the planned replacement of engines on the Tu-160 was never canceled.

[Berkut24]

1) From MO several years ago there was an order for design work on a major modernization and restoration of production of the NK-32. For the resource of engines on airplanes is not eternal.
2) At the plant in Kazan there are backlogs of 2 unfinished bombers. However, the factory documentation is still in paper form.
There is equipment for the production and repair of machines, but almost all the machines are replaced by digital ones. In fact, the aviation industry in recent years has undergone a major modernization of its machinery. This was one of the main articles of our imports, and especially from Germany. Superjets are built exactly according to European standards and production technologies. Accordingly, digital redesign is needed, including for components that we no longer receive from other CIS countries. With the advent of digital documentation, the process will go much faster and cheaper than with the USSR.

It’s cheaper and faster to train 5 process engineers than to prepare 100 high-class turners, milling machines, etc.

Everything here largely depends on how massive the final product will be. It is pointless to purchase an expensive CNC machine capable of producing thousands of parts per day when it comes to pilot or small-scale production. At the same time, there are high-class turners and milling operators who are capable of doing on conventional machines what high-tech equipment cannot do. At one time I was holding one thing in my hands. It was made by a turner who had golden hands on one side and love for the green serpent on the other. At the moments of the "tie-up" he was hired without question, and even to the place where he was already kicked out when the guy went into a binge. And in one office after he was fired, a glass vodka bottle was found in his personal locker. The bottle was cut across and connected thanks to the threads cut into its walls. Judging by the characteristic traces of the cutter, all the work was done on a lathe. And how this was done, more than one technologist did not undertake to explain. And none of the turner colleagues managed to repeat this "feat".

A very controversial topic. There are a lot of questions about the feasibility of such an aircraft. Apart from advertising in our country, all other points are debatable. By design: the wing with variable geometry is yesterday. It reduces the assigned resource, makes the aircraft heavier, does not allow rational use of the internal volume of the wing. Aerodynamic gain is minimal ... U we are also waiting for a replacement in the TU-22M3 + aircraft line, and such a machine will replace both the new TU-160 and the new PAK YES ... Otherwise, we’ll remain without pants. The SU-34M aircraft will not be able to replace both of these aircraft ... A new aircraft that his name is PAK DA should be the size of a TU-22M3 and without a mobile console. You need to make a commander’s decision, not stupidly cut money. The TU-160 is difficult and expensive to maintain with such a small amount, but the solution for those who think and know how to count money is obvious .... Add here the construction of new airfields and a ground structure for these monsters ...

[mr.redpartizan]

A variable sweep wing is required when flying at different altitudes. At high altitude, the wing has a high degree of sweep, which reduces resistance to air flow and makes it possible to increase flight speed. At low altitude, the wing has a low sweep, which reduces speed, but increases lift. For bombers, the low-level flight mode is very important.

The number of groups in total with a technical bias has decreased significantly. Most Universities produce a minimum number of engineering and technical staff, besides using the new technology of bachelors, but this is not a specialist, only basic knowledge in the specialty.

Total question. Which is better, 120 specialist engineers with a competition of 10 people for 1 place, or 30 bachelors (incomplete higher) with a competition of 100 people for 1 place?

We are building new submarines, we are building new missiles, and here we have taken up strategic aviation.

Really. "White Swan" is an amazing combination of power and aesthetics - as if to say: "We are peaceful people, but our armored train ..."

I did not understand from the article whether the Tu-160M2 would somehow be modernized, at least partially. Not that I hint at his old age, I just always want everything new and reliable.

On a jump to Caracas, we visited Comrade Hugo Chavez. There was such a thing. Wow, the nix happened in the Pintagon. It is not necessary to approach 160 like that, but as the "peacekeepers" squealed. And Chavez is dead. And how many attempts were there on Fidel? Here it is, the difference.

Slowlyoooooo! You need to move faster, but "liberals" with "effective managers" interfere at all levels, everyone knows, understands and keeps silent.

Excellent!!! Such "birds" will be very useful to us! Cool hotheads very well!

Beautiful aircraft.
Once restored, then modernization will be.
Looking at this bird you feel pride in the Motherland.
