Technical force buildup leads to high production growth
June 30, 2025The Chollima General Building-materials Factory is boosting production by strengthening its technical forces.
“Now that production processes are being upgraded with intelligent and up-to-date facilities, it is an important factor in boosting production in a stable and sustainable way to increase technical forces capable of handling them skilfully,” said Kim Jong Jin, deputy chief engineer of the factory.
The factory steadily trains its technical forces under its well-knit system of training technicians and skilled workers.
It set up a database of latest sci-tech information related to various building-materials production in contact with the Sci-Tech Complex, the State Commission of Science and Technology and the Central Information Agency for Science and Technology and operates a sci-tech learning space provided with many sci-tech books on a regular basis.
All the employees are working hard to enhance their technical skills to meet their occupational category and fulfilment of tasks.
According to the chief of the sci-tech learning space, many employees are involved in the study-while-you-work system to attend lectures and they have solved lots of sci-tech problems.
This year, the factory introduced an oxygen cutter gas control system, whose performance has been improved, into the process of producing light steel structure, thus increasing its productivity 1.5 times while ensuring the convenience of oxygen cutting work.
Meanwhile, it raised quality and per-unit consumption and established a process control technology for single-purpose equipment to lay the material and technical foundations for setting up an integrated production system.
And it researched and made various colours of multi-colour patterned paint that can beautifully and gorgeously decorate the interior and external walls of structures and buildings. The paint can reportedly substitute for granite and other high-grade stone materials for concrete products.
It also newly developed various jigs and tools for ensuring precision in product processing.
The aluminium and plastic composite sash recently developed by the factory is winning high appraisal among experts for convenience in usage and the solidity of product. Made with high-purity aluminium as the raw material, it is highly effective in intercepting cold and radiating heat as compared to plastic or wooden sash and the surface is very smooth and does not oxidize and corrode.
Various plastic flowerpots, which bring great profits and have good ornamental effects, are winning popularity among users as they are convenient to use.
