“The record of one given day makes the routine of the day after.”
After
having reached new monthly and daily records in May 2016, BSW –
the mini-mill of the Badische group – achieved also a new annual productivity
record in 2016 with a total steel production of 2.371.467 tons of good
billets.
The daily
average production with the two 100 tons EAFs increased to 7.765 tons,
whereas the average tap-to-tap time decreased to 39,3 minutes at a
remarkable average power-off time of 9,8 minutes (process-related
downtimes and delays).
These records are the result of consistent application of the "Badische Philosophy": Educated and well-trained people care for reliable equipment, and high productivity leading to low cost production.
