The Blooming and
Billet Mill of the Bhilai Steel Plant (BSP) has started commercial
production of rounds of 100 mm diameter. This is a major step
by the Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) for its flagship
unit towards new product development. All modifications made at
the mill for its production were designed, fabricated and commissioned
inhouse.
Besides, execution
of a conveyorisation project, which would have cost the company
Rs. 5.6 crore if outsourced, has been completed inhouse at a cost
of only Rs. 1 crore. The massive work of conveyorising a length
of 1.2 kms matched all quality standards.
