Factory workers Z121 operate on presses MN-1000 designed and manufactured by factory technicians. Achieving the above results is due to the scientific and technological work always receiving the attention and direction of the Party Committee, the factory’s Board of Directors and the close coordination of agencies and units inside and outside the factory. Lieutenant Colonel Le Duc Hanh, Deputy Director of Z121 Factory affirmed: The factory always identifies science and technology as the key, orienting to develop both width and depth, promoting and encouraging officials, technicians and workers. participation, in which technical agencies and staff with professional qualifications and high skills are taken as the core in research and development of science and technology; at the same time, building and perfecting the management mechanism for S&T activities. Along with that, the factory focuses on training and fostering science and technology staff and technical staff. Up to now, 100% of technical staff have university degrees or higher, ensuring mastery of technology and proposing ideas, in charge and in charge of assigned science and technology topics and technical improvement initiatives. The factory assigns grassroots science and technology tasks to collectives and individuals; establish a science and technology research group to coordinate the implementation of the topic, and at the same time associate the tasks of science and technology research with the responsibilities and duties of officials; take the results of scientific and technological work to evaluate the capacity and quality of staff, consider emulation every year… In the period of 2015-2020, the factory deployed and completed 85 scientific and technological projects at all levels, projects and programs to rationalize production; 32 mechanization and automation projects and 1,429 technical innovation initiatives. The factory also cooperates with research institutes to successfully test many products with complex technical requirements to meet the requirements of military modernization. Prominent in the plant’s science and technology work is focusing on implementing topics to completely solve complex technical problems and problems that have lasted for many years. Many high-value initiatives have been put into effective application such as: Researching and perfecting the technology of producing fire particles K51SK; research on drying wet fire seeds by infrared drying method; perfecting the production technology of spark tube explosion to improve product quality, overcome the phenomenon of electric spark tube resistance decline, stabilize quality, and reduce product failure rate; research to improve the quality of bullets PG9, OG9, B41M… In response to the requirements of research and development for defense production, in addition to researching and ensuring the production of traditional fire tools for army weapons, the factory also focused its research force on new types of fire tools for the military. weapons of the air force, navy to put into equipment to replace old and degraded fire tools. The factory also completed mechanization and automation works; design and manufacture equipment for the project of synchronous transfer of the dose line… Thereby affirming the factory’s level, design and manufacturing capacity of highly complex equipment. The above topics are new in technology, successfully researching and manufacturing for the first time on the factory’s existing technological equipment lines, contributing to meeting the requirements of repairing and replacing fire tools used in the factory. for weapons of the air force and navy, saving the budget and actively ensuring technical, improving the combat readiness of the army.

The coal mining industry is one of the economic pillars of Quang Ninh province. In the deeper production conditions and higher production costs, coal industry units are focusing on promoting the application of “3 chemistry”: mechanization, automation, news chemical suit. “Green mines, modern mines, high yield mines” are important criteria set out in the resolution of the Quang Ninh Coal Party Congress for the term 2020-2025. Currently, many units have been actively applying technology to management and improving production capacity. At Ha Lam mine (Ha Long city) – where the mining is down to minus 300m, the “brain” of the mine is the centralized production operation center with CCTV system from the ground to the pit, control , centralized monitoring of conveyor systems, electricity, pump tunnels, wastewater monitoring, … communication connecting all construction sites and workshops to promptly handle possible situations. . Maximize application of mechanization to all stages of the production line, from 2015 up to now, Ha Lam Coal Joint Stock Company invested in operating two synchronous mechanized market furnaces, with a capacity of 600 thousand tons / year and 1 , 2 million tons / year, making coal production 3-5 times higher than the old market furnace technology. By 2020, the coal output of the mechanized market will reach more than 1.6 million tons, accounting for 70% of the total coal production of the unit. Mr. To Duc Vuong, Deputy Manager of Mining Mechanization Site 1 said: “Currently we use synchronous self-propelled systems from rigs, coal stage machines, rakes, conveyors, to replace very Many stages of operating the craft market kiln are as hard as before. Most of the workers are under 30 years old, grasping and learning technology very quickly and are given regular guidance and training “. Mechanization not only increases labor productivity by up to 130%, but also improves safety in the pit. “The increase in output means that the wages of workers also increase significantly. Our average monthly income is 25-26 million / month, effort is reduced a lot”, said furnace worker Hoang Anh Do. . Up to now, in Quang Ninh, there have been 10 marketplaces applying synchronous mechanization lines of 8 units of Vinacomin, Vinacomin, Vang Danh, Khe Cham, Mong Duong … Light mechanized market furnaces are also being studied and replicated to units with suitable conditions. Modern technology helps to dig deeper and reach further underground, the vast and expansive furnace lines are also equipped with automatic systems to provide circulating cooling water, ventilation, vacuuming, … Workers move in the pit by the winch, cable, and truck transport systems to the kiln long mining lines. Working conditions, healthcare, housing … have many great progresses. Over the past time, in the difficult context due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, tens of thousands of mine workers have maintained a stable life, ensuring production, contributing to the positive economic growth results of the province. Quang Ninh. “Putting the park into the mine, the factory” is also the goal of TKV units. The coal mines are gradually building production according to a modern model, few people, high productivity, safety, harmony with the environment, in line with the trend of sustainable development of the mining industry and responsive requirements and goals for green growth that Quang Ninh province has set out.
