In 1959 machines were in great demand in order to realize mechanization of agriculture in the DPRK. But in the then realities, there was no way to settle it. In order to tide over such difficulty, Kim Il Sung gave a field guidance to the (then) Juul Flax Mill. At that time, the mill had already manufactured over 120 machine tools with a belt lathe. So to speak, machine reproduced machine.
When machine reproduced machine, farm machines necessary for the rural economy could be manufactured without limit and the machine-building industry be put on a higher stage without depending on foreign countries.
Kim Il Sung, who saw a spark to be developed into a flame, initiated to launch the let-one-machine-tool-make-another movement on a mass scale.
Thanks to his initiative, the DPRK launched the movement that machines reproduced not only small farming machines but large machine tools such as large boring lathe, large lathe and large turning lathe and brought about a change of having produced 13 000 machine tools in addition to the plan without increasing the number of machine factories.
Later, the let-one-machine-tool-make-another movement developed into the let-one-factory-make-another movement and the DPRK’s machine-building industry developed to a high phase to further accelerate the socialist construction.
