Struggler · Zheng Youth | Chen Xingqiang: Blooming in the welding flower

Book of characters: Chen Xingqiang, a strategic support force, a brigade welded technician and a second -level master, has repeatedly completed the task of welding protection for major defense engineering. In 2014, he honored his third -class merit and was named an excellent Communist Party member in 2020.

The Gobi Desert in the early autumn was still hot. The strategic support forces have a steel structure plant welding site of a steel structure, fire light, welding flowers splashing. A welder wearing a welding hat, holding a welding torch, and a thick protective workwear stands on a scaffold of more than 4 meters high, and is skilled in the supporting frame of the plant.

He is Chen Xingqiang, a second -level welder in the fifteen battalion welders of the brigade, and was called "gold welders" by his comrades.

"The current is too large and easy to break through to form welding tumors; the current is too small, which can easily cause defects such as incomplete welding and poor fusion." Chen Xingqiang told the author that the supporting frame is an important part of the stiffness and stability of the steel structure plant. With extremely high quality requirements, in order to complete the tasks at high standards, welders are all greeted by "fire".

In September 2013, 18 -year -old Chen Xingqiang joined the army. As soon as the recruit, he was assigned to the welder class. When I came to the factory for the first time, I saw a cluster of welding flowers. The sound of welding arcs was like a magnificent symphony. Chen Xingqiang was fascinated by this scene: "Youth is like this welding flower, Only under high temperature can bloom gorgeous colors. "

Soon, Chen Xingqiang followed the squad leader to participate in a factory welding task. High -altitude operations in the wild test both testing and testing endurance, and slightly jitter will affect the welding accuracy. For the first time, Chen Xingqiang, who is not fine, can only be anxious. "If you do not master the technology, you will not guarantee the safety of construction tasks!"

Looking at the calm and calm figures of the old squad leaders, Chen Xingqiang was determined to learn the technology. Flat welding, horizontal welding, standing welding, each movement must be practiced to the extreme; traditional welding, arc welding, gas protection welding, each technology must be mastered one by one. For a long time, Chen Xingqiang stabbed his eyes more than once by the welding arc light. At night, he had to cover the painful eyes with a hot towel to fall asleep.

"His pursuit of skills is obsessed. The rest time is either a theoretical book or practice welding." When he mentioned Chen Xingqiang, his comrades praised again and again. With this toughness and hard work, Chen Xingqiang's technical level has made rapid progress, not only obtained the national high -level welding qualification, but also picked gold and silver in various competitions.

In recent years, with the transformation and development of the unit, the welding task has become heavier and the welding process has become more and more complicated. Facing the endless complex key welding points, Chen Xingqiang continued to study new welding methods, explored new welding processes, and completed a number of major defense engineering welding tasks.

In 2019, the brigade was equipped with a large device. Due to the special components, it was very difficult to weld. "Can you complete the task?" The leader gave the welding task of the core components of the equipment to Chen Xingqiang, and asked some worries.

"Make sure to complete the task!" Chen Xingqiang made a military order: All the welds of the equipment bite were zero, and there were no arc pits in large welding corners.

"Such accurate manual operations are equivalent to the fine standards of CNC robotics." Some comrades didn't understand and raised doubts. Chen Xingqiang said, "It can't be worse at all, it is almost impossible, it is best to do it!"

During that time, Chen Xingqiang fought with several comrades on the front line of the mission day and night. "At first we can't do it, we always need to keep working." In the aspects of the selection of welding equipment, the optimization of welding parameters, and the breakthrough of traditional operation methods, Chen Xingqiang and his comrades repeatedly tested the debugging, and finally resolved this. One problem.

Accompanied by iron and water, and welding flowers, behind the "glossy color" is unknown hardship, Chen Xingqiang is among them. Those calm and powerful hands, the bright welding flowers waved, like a gorgeous arc light, stimulating the dream of youth.
