In order to thoroughly implement the theme of "cost reduction and efficiency improvement", further strengthen cost control, optimize economic indicators, grasp the central task of cost reduction and efficiency improvement, and strengthen the fine management of costs, Hebei Xinda Iron and Steel Group Co., Ltd. recently held a seminar on cost reduction and efficiency improvement after steel reduction measures and problems in the implementation process. We will dig deep into the potential of cost reduction through cutting the root and tracing the source, and promote the whole system and the whole process of cost reduction. Company general manager An Zhenyu, production deputy general manager Li Lailing and production plants, logistics department leaders attended the meeting.

At the meeting, the Finance Department reported the cost indicators of steel mills and steel rolling plants in June and July, and the leaders of branches, departments and companies gave guidance and suggestions for the report.

Ren Haibing, director of the steelmaking plant, reported the completion of steel material consumption, Q195L aluminum consumption and the standard situation. In terms of reducing the cost of steel material consumption of all steel types, the cost was reduced by 15.05 million yuan in June through the formulation of the plan to improve the hit rate of carbon temperature of the converter, the use of rewards and punishments to improve the enthusiasm of key posts, reasonable scheduling and organization, fine operation of continuous casting, the reduction of broken casting, the reduction of the length of the casting blank, the reasonable control of the first and last blank, and the improvement of the recovery rate of molten steel. Q195L aluminum consumption reduction, through the refining of aluminum wire with aluminum particle deoxidation process, improve the utilization rate of aluminum, converter adopts weak deoxidation process, the steel process only adds 40-60kg aluminum block, the rest of the deoxidation slag process is transferred to refining and other measures, the 195L aluminum consumption is reduced to 2.62kg/t, AD powder 0.4kg/t, 0.79kg/t lower than the average 3.41kg/t from January to May, and the cost was reduced by 1.52 million yuan in June. By comparing with advanced enterprises, the 195L deoxidation process is optimized, and low cost AD powder is used instead of high price aluminum for slag making, which has obvious cost reduction effect.

Zhang Jimeng, director of the General Steel rolling plant, reported on the decomposition of various indicators, the production of high value-added products, the development of independent improvement activities, the repair of old benefits and waste, safety and environmental protection control and product quality tracking. Through the production of high value-added products, the steel plant has increased efficiency by 17.46 million yuan from January to May 2023; Through the production of high value-added products, the board belt factory generated 183,300 yuan in May and June. In terms of independent improvement, the strip factory completed 36 independent improvements from January to June, with a total annual effect of 3.3518 million yuan; The shape steel factory completed 23 independent improvements from January to June, with a total annual effect of 1.65 million yuan. The total effect is 500.18 million yuan. In terms of repairing the old and benefiting the waste, under the premise of ensuring the safe operation of the equipment, the general steel rolling plant repaired the damaged parts, and the old and benefiting the waste of the plate and strip factory completed 771,600 yuan from January to May, and the steel factory completed 872,400 yuan. A total of 1.644 million yuan was completed.

He Zhangping, head of the bar production line, reported on the yield rate, energy consumption and other aspects. First, reduce energy consumption and increase the heat charge rate; The second is to grasp the specification of billet size, reduce the size ratio, improve the yield; The third is to do a good job of each production link according to the production process, the billet is loaded into the furnace according to the furnace, the composition information is transmitted, and the rolling operation and other technological processes are determined to maximize the benefits of cost reduction and efficiency. In June, the yield reached 97.56%, and the qualified rate was 99.98%.

The main person in charge of energy and power plant, technology department and production Department systematically analyzed and answered the questions raised at the meeting by each branch plant.

Li Lailing, deputy general manager of production of the company, affirmed the implementation of cost reduction and efficiency improvement of various units, and pointed out that, first, the implementation of accurate cost reduction under the premise of ensuring quality improvement must not be at the expense of quality; Second, we should communicate effectively with the production department and the technology department, do enough work from the technical cost reduction, strengthen business learning, and guide production with new technologies and new processes, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing costs and improving benefits; Third, to be market-oriented, each process to strengthen communication, around the company to maximize the benefit of reasonable arrangement and organization of production; Fourth, we should pursue extreme energy efficiency and reduce energy waste. He stressed that all units should increase weights for the company's continuous innovation and efficiency as soon as possible, explore potential energy around cost reduction and efficiency improvement, optimize indicators, and strive to achieve new breakthroughs and new improvements.

An Zhenyu, general manager of the company, summarized the work of cost reduction and efficiency improvement and stressed that cost reduction and efficiency improvement is a systematic work, and it is necessary to give full play to the synergistic role of steelmaking and rolling, enhance the height of thinking, and carry out technology transformation and mode transformation. Each unit should formulate a good cost reduction and efficiency goal, not only to ensure the advanced nature and operability of the development of goals, but also to conduct a deep analysis of cost reduction measures, hard to practice internal skills, in-depth exploration of potential, detailed cost control of each link, and strive to make new breakthroughs in the original cost reduction and efficiency model; To adjust the rhythm of production, avoid the peak on the valley, calculate the energy-saving account, the enterprise to develop, not only to have excellent "external", but also to practice energy saving and consumption reduction "internal"; The pass rate, hit rate and steel material consumption of steelmaking plant are the key to reduce the cost. The steelmaking plant should improve the production technology and process to ensure the stable operation of equipment and reduce the cost. All units of technology, production, etc. should be centered on cost reduction and efficiency, and all should be invested in cost reduction and efficiency. All departments should adhere to the cost consciousness unwavering, must clarify their ideas, be bold and innovative, do everything possible to think of ways, work together to offer good solutions, effectively reduce the cost, and promote the work to a new level.

"Though the road is far, the line is coming; Though it is difficult to do, it will be done." Cost reduction and efficiency improvement work is an up-down linkage, complex long-term project, all xin master adhere to safety production to benefit, to technological innovation to benefit, to cost control to benefit, to save costs and reduce consumption to benefit, in technological innovation, equipment improvement and other aspects of skillful work, cost reduction and efficiency achieved remarkable results. It is firmly believed that as long as all cadres and staff are firm in confidence, with one heart and one mind, carry the banner of "ultimate cost reduction", with the courage to fight against the odds and the courage to break the bank, we will be able to overcome the difficulties and challenges ahead, become stronger in the market adversity, hold high the torch in the dark, and go steady and far!
