The Chollima Steel Complex creates favourable conditions and atmosphere for all producers to present more good ideas conducive to the development of the complex including present and future production.

A typical example is a sci-tech prize contest.

The complex has organized the contest once every quarter and made the examination, appraisal and review of proposals in a fair and substantial way.

According to its standards for appraisal, the first prize goes to the ideas recognized as being wide in application to production, the second prize to those recognized as a must for normal production at the complex and the third prize to those recognized as valuable for research in future. And it awarded winners fabulous prizes so that others would envy them.

What draws attention is that the complex properly appraised even unsuccessful contestants to give them confidence so as to encourage everyone to come up with even one technical innovation conducive to its development with much interest in the contest.

According to Ri Chang Hyok, chief engineer of the complex, dozens of valuable proposals presented to the prize contest have been introduced into production this year, too, thereby bringing considerable benefits to the complex.

He said that such a proposal enabled the complex to ensure the stability of operation of wound-rotor motor and increase the utilization rate and life of brushes more than two times as much as before, while saving a great deal of labour and materials for repairing motors and normalizing the operation of equipment at a high level. An asynchronous motor protection circuit, simple in structure and low in manufacturing cost, was devised and introduced at the complex to bring in big economic profits, he noted.

He added that many workers are becoming indispensable talents and inventors of the complex and workshops in the course of positively participating in the sci-tech prize contest and the number of such employees will increase in future.
