NK News is hiring

The Kumsong Tractor Factory is turning into a core factory playing a vanguard role in realizing the comprehensive mechanization of agriculture and a model of the vehicle-making industry.

The project for its renovation and modernization is being carried out in a three-dimensional way.

The construction of all the structures is being pushed at the final stage in the wake of the completion of several structures.

After finishing the construction of the oxygen-generating shop, water intake pumping station, fuel supply station, raw materials preparation workshop and office building, builders buckled down all at once to the building of a gymnasium, workers’ hostel, products exhibition hall and repair and maintenance workshop, completed the excavation and concrete tamping for foundations and are speeding up the erecting of walls, internal and external plastering and equipment foundation work.

In close contact with scientific research units, officials and technicians in charge of modernization of production lines finished technical preparations for setting up modern production lines including the assembly lines for tractor driver’s cab, rice-seedling transplanter and rice combine harvester.

Officials set it as an important task to build up the factory’s technical force and expand the ranks of skilled workers and ensures that a theoretical and object-based training course is run efficiently so as to make employees know well programming and fine control methods and skilfully operate CNC machines.

The factory invented and introduced dozens of new techniques as it made various kinds of plastic moulds, facilities and devices, which had been imported in the past, by raising the rate of domestic assembly-line production of tractors, rice combine harvesters, cultivators and rice-seedling transplanters.

The renovation and modernization project at the Kumsong Tractor Factory began last year and its second stage is nearing completion.
