Mid-Autumn Night, the Long March II F-T2 launch vehicle successfully "Temple II" sent to space, "Temple II" is China's first true sense of the space laboratory. "Tiangong II" space laboratory need to stay in outer space for a long time, so the material requirements are extremely harsh, Harbin R & D and manufacturing of new materials is about to withstand the test of space.

Northeast light alloy aluminum alloy to create "Temple II" bone
 
Not a strong bones, nature can not do the work of outer space. Reporters learned from the Northeast Light Alloy Co., Ltd., "Temple II" space laboratory resource cabin and the experimental chamber of the aluminum alloy materials are mostly from the East light. Dongqing is the "Shenzhou" series of spacecraft and the "Long March" series of rocket aluminum-magnesium alloy designated manufacturer, "Long March" series of rockets and Shenzhou spacecraft propulsion cabin fuel compartment, manned cabin (escape capsule), orbital module, Tiangong-1 "target aircraft resource cabin and laboratory need a lot of aluminum alloy materials, most of these materials from the East light.
 
As a space laboratory, "Temple II" will stay in outer space for a long time, the aluminum alloy material requirements almost harsh. In order to ensure the stability and reliability of these high-performance materials, Dongqing Company has opened up a green channel for the pre-investment of space products, complex specifications, varieties and less amount, etc., in the development and production process, Technical staff all-weather attendant.
 
A road quality checks, a trial adjustment to ensure that each batch of products is absolutely reliable, it is these seemingly minimal details for the "Temple II," the smooth launch of the absolute guarantee, Dongqing company's aluminum products As "Temple II" strong gluten bone.
 
Fiberglass Research Institute of carbon fiber carrying "Temple II" propellant
 
"Temple II" bones from Harbin to build, propellant from the "Harbin manufacturing" load. Reporters learned from the Harbin Institute of glass fiber reinforced plastic, the hospital assumed the main bearing carbon fiber composite cone platform, thermal infrared imaging device carbon fiber floor and carbon fiber hood three projects.
 
Harbin FRP Research Institute Development Director Wang Shiwei told reporters that carbon fiber composite material bearing the main bearing frustum cone, cross beam, honeycomb three components. Because carbon fiber composite materials are light weight, can be designed, high strength characteristics, it is mainly responsible for carrying propulsion system on the four propellant tank. In addition, "Temple One" of the main bearing cone is also by the Harbin Institute of FRP developed. In addition to propellant, "Temple II" on the imaging system is also by the Harbin Institute of glass fiber reinforced plastic products support. One is the thermal infrared imager carbon fiber floor, another carbon fiber hood, the two tasks is the first commitment of Harbin FRP Research Institute. Wang Shiwei told reporters, hood is mainly used in the "Temple II" of the camera, a total of six kinds, each one.
