Zhang Zhiguo: The pursuit of craftsmen at a height of 50 meters

Mondo Social Updated on 2024-02-01

In 2002, Zhang Zhiguo entered Rizhao Vocational and Technical College and became a freshman majoring in mechatronics. He loves his profession, likes to study electromechanical, contact electrical appliances, and often gets hands-on with operation and practice. During the school period, I often visit the enterprise under the leadership of professional teachers to understand the specific operation methods of CNC machine tools. "The contact and understanding during school, especially the visit to the company, had a certain impact on me, at least when I first came to work and came into contact with the equipment. Zhang Zhiguo said that the theoretical knowledge he learned gave him a certain professional foundation, and his focus on practical operation and strong hands-on ability also allowed him to get started quickly when working.

In 2005, Zhang Zhiguo entered Rizhao Port No. 2 Company to work in Hong Kong. For 19 years, he has been rooted in front-line port operations and is now a senior technician in the company. However, when he was just engaged in the operation of the ship unloader, Zhang Zhiguo only had two years of experience in door crane operation, and he was transferred to the ship unloader operation position, which was still a little uncomfortable. Working at high altitudes, there is parallax with the ground, and people will feel dizzy. When Zhang Zhiguo climbed onto the ship unloader for the first time, he was dizzy when he looked down, and he didn't dare to take a big step, so he could only hold on to the handrail and move slowly.

The control room of the gantry crane is about 15 meters away from the ground, and the control room of the ship unloader is more than 50 meters away from the ground, and the working environment is raised by more than 30 meters. Normal people shiver just by standing in the air for a while, let alone working at height. Zhang Zhiguo said that in the event of special weather such as typhoons, the arm of the ship unloader will be erected to shelter from the wind, and the height above the ground at that time is close to 90 meters.

The unloading operation is the first end of the company's production operations. To ensure that the ship can come and unload, the key is that the ship unloader driver must be highly skilled and reliable. When Zhang Zhiguo first entered Hong Kong to work, he was deeply impressed by the master's words.

Zhang Zhiguo knows that if he wants to make some achievements in the position of ship unloader driver, he must not only have a strong sense of responsibility and dedication, but also need to have solid business knowledge and skilled operation skills. Lacking theoretical knowledge, he "gnawed", and he could be seen studying hard in the canteen and at homeLacking practical experience, he "drilled" and was the first to come to the unit every day, carefully observe on the ship unloader, and find out the "temper" of the ship unloading equipment.

With the gradual improvement of Zhang Zhiguo's control skills, in less than half a year, after a class, he has been able to hook and catch 600 hooks, about80,000 tons of cargo. The veteran driver, who has been engaged in ship unloader operation for seven or eight years, completes about 650 hooks of cargo in one shift.

With the firm belief and tenacious perseverance of "insisting on Qingshan and not relaxing", Zhang Zhiguo quickly developed excellent business skills and became a leader among ship unloader drivers, not only undertook many important ship unloading tasks, but also emerged in technical competitions at all levels for many times. In the 2022 Shandong Port 4th Vocational Skills Competition Port Industry Vocational Skills Competition and the 4th Shandong Port Vocational Skills Competition, Zhang Zhiguo won the championship in the ship unloader driver project and was named the "Shangang Champion".

In the production operation, Zhang Zhiguo is good at thinking, brave in innovation, and actively participates in the technological innovation of ship unloaders. He participated in the design and transformation of the water unloader system, which effectively solved the water problem of the ship unloaderParticipated in the research on the wear-resistant technology of the ship unloader unloading system, and reduced the frequency of liner replacement. Zhang Zhiguo participated in the research and development of a series of special tools for special goods with many impurities and strong adhesion such as wet goods, which effectively improved the operation efficiency of special goods.

Zhang Zhiguo is good at summarizing and diligent in review, and summed up the "five hopes" of clearance operations and the "five passes" safety operation methods of mechanical hoisting operations, which has improved the safety level of cabin clearance and mechanical hoisting operations. He summarized the operation process of the ship unloader as four steps of "prediction, locking, stabilizing and cutting", and optimized it, which effectively improved the full-load operation rate of the ship unloader equipment and the single-hook cycle speed, and effectively improved the overload and underload operation of the equipment.

Regarding the honor, Zhang Zhiguo modestly said: "Thank you for the training of the school and the platform provided by the unit. I hope to share the advanced operation experience with my colleagues and apprentices, and drive everyone to learn and progress together. Today, Zhang Zhiguo has led 6 apprentices, and the apprentices have grown into the backbone members of the unloading operation, including 1 technician and 5 senior workers. From an apprentice to a "technical master", Zhang Zhiguo participated in the creation of a world record for ore unloading efficiency, and has achieved excellent results in national, provincial and municipal skills competitions for many times. He has won the honorary titles of "National Transportation Technology Expert", "Shandong Technical Expert", "Shandong Province New Era Post Meritorious Labor Competition Model Individual", "Shandong Port Champion", "Shandong Port Model Worker", "Rizhao City May Day Pioneer", "Rizhao City Skill Model", "Rizhao Port Craftsman" and other honorary titles.

First of all, it is necessary to have a solid theoretical knowledge;The second is to develop good habits, especially the habit of studying. It is more important to accumulate more skills, to do one line, to love one line, to insist on doing one thing well, and to keep doing it. Zhang Zhiguo suggested to the juniors and sisters.
