凱斯是哪個？

  玩工業(yè)，一般都要有個系統(tǒng)性，就是這東西是怎么來的？誰是那個玩意兒的始祖，發(fā)展的脈絡是什么，

  現(xiàn)在國內(nèi)很少有人了解這些了，就是抓過來‘集成’，其實也不是集成，就是把鬼子找過來，要買一個什么東西，有時連買什么都不甚了解，就找一個家伙，那家伙他了解就可以了，哈哈，

  人家突然問我，凱斯是誰？有一個家伙了解勒圖爾勒的，問俺，是勒圖爾勒厲害，還是凱斯厲害，哈哈，

真是巧了，先占個位。
還是沒有傳承和積累。不知前因后果，歷史在不斷重復著，在轉圈，
不停地在跳著，抄一把就走的心態(tài)。
形勢越來越緊迫羅。。。呵呵

希傲

俺不是業(yè)內(nèi)人士，百度一下后才了解一點點，有這么久歷史的公司業(yè)內(nèi)人士不了解就說不過去了。

我很呆

這些非大批量量產(chǎn)的巨型家伙。車間用空調(diào)嗎？
目測不會用。

以前公司有人講，以后就是模塊化設計，根本用不著設計怎么計算與了解，工作會很輕松。俺當時就想，那東西怎么個原理都不是太清楚，關鍵使用點都不明白，您怎么能最大限度的發(fā)揮這個東東的最大優(yōu)勢呢，那種想法就是自欺欺人。

迷茫的維修

現(xiàn)在，真的越來越?jīng)]落了
各種油泵，液壓站不會選型
直接把液壓供應商叫過來
軸斷了
就是分析力大了，材料差了
也沒有去分析斷面、裂紋的
沒有人去看維修手冊
最基礎的維修故障，書上寫的明明白白的，沒人去看書

現(xiàn)在汽車實際也是模塊化設計，但是必要的校核還是要的，只是提升了設計速度，傳統(tǒng)的反復設計過程得到改善而已

從玩蒸汽農(nóng)機開始到世界領導地位的中小型工程機械。回頭去找找電影看。

哈哈，大蝦，是下面這個家伙

Ralph H. Kress, “The Father Of The Off-Highway Truck,” spent almost fifty years designing and developing mining trucks.  His ideas are still evident in the configuration of mine haulage trucks at surface mines throughout the world.

In 1930, working as a highway truck salesman in New England, Ralph Kress designed an automatic clutch for his Packard car, received a patent, and drove it for 35,000 miles without incident.  Bill Crawford, VP Engineering at General Motors, recognized Ralph’s ability and suggested that he get an engineering degree, so he could fully realize his potential.  From 1933 through 1939, Ralph attended night school at M.I.T.  After receiving his degree, he began working for G.M.  When the war began, he went to Washington as a G.M. representative.

In March of 1943, Ralph Kress received a commission in the Transportation Corps.  For his exceptional war efforts, he was awarded the “Legion of Merit, 軍團勛章” which states “foresight, initiative, perseverance, and aggressive action marked the valuable duty accomplishments of Major Kress in skillfully producing improved cargo hauling equipment of vital need to the military effort.”

In 1950, Ralph Kress became General Manager of the Dart Company. There he was the first to rely exclusively on full power steering, a basic requirement for larger trucks.  His Dart 75-TA rear-dump hauled 75 tons, the largest truck at that time.  The front axle, with four front tires, was suspended in the center on the first off-highway oleo-pneumatic suspension, a revolutionary advance that replaced leaf springs.  During Ralph’s Dart tenure, through 1955, Dart increased its sales six times, and no mining truck other than a Dart was sold west of the Mississippi during his last two years with the company.

In December 1955 as a consultant to WABCO, now Komatsu, Ralph Kress configured a truck incorporating the most efficient components available at the time, recognizing that tires are not suspensions, driver comfort is essential, and reducing shock loads on structures enhances efficient design.  To accomplish this, he incorporated a short wheelbase with a high angle of turn and a deep, sloped, flat body.  In 1957, the first 32-ton Haulpaks were delivered along with 75-ton tractor-trailer coal haulers using the 32-ton Haulpaks as tractors.  Haulpaks soon increased in size and became the truck of choice at many large surface mines.

In 1962, Ralph Kress joined Caterpillar, where he developed a line of 85-ton, 105-ton, and 240-ton electric drive trucks, again pointing the way to the future.

After retiring from Caterpillar in 1969, Ralph joined his son Ted Kress, who had started Kress Corporation four years earlier.  There, he developed the Kress unitized bottom-dump coal hauler, featuring a long wheelbase with two axles and four tires on each axle for improved stability and safety and 90 degree steering on the front axle, giving exceptional maneuverability.

Ralph Kress was without question the preeminent designer of mining trucks during his years in the business.  His innovative 1957 design for the WABCO Haulpak was recognized even in 1998 at the “Haulage 2000” Conference as the “Truck Configuration of the Future.”
