On saturday afternooon I visted the manufacturing Plants. There are various plants for Boiler and Heater division like Panel Shop , Welding shop , Drum Shop etc.. I saw pipe bending machine, submerged arc welding machine which was welding pipes and strips into pipe panels (containing upto 50 pipes). I also saw plant where Packaged boilers, superheater were being fabricated.
Every where safety norms were being followed. Every person in the plant had safety helmet. I was surprised to find area very clean even though there was lot of work going on which invariably produces waste like welding , grinding of pipes .
The plant area was spacious with separate zones for each process. There were also charts indicated no. mandays lost , backlog , type of work going on etc..
I will be visiting other plants later on.
