Light pipe collects the sun light from the roof and it transmitted to the room without any battery back up.
Before After
During rolling process the bloom size is gradually reduced to finish size by rolling in different passes & these passes have been reduced by increasing the draft from 30 mm to 45 mm.
No of passes before increase in draft = 11
No of passes after increase in draft = 9
Increase in productivity = 6 MT/hr
Savings in FO = 168 Kl p.a
Savings / annum = Rs.47 Lakhs
Payback Period = Immediate.
3. Reduction in Rolling time

4. Reduction Hot Saw blade Changing timeBefore: Hot saw blade cover was being removed and put back by EOT crane. Blade locking Nut was being tightened manually by using hammer.
After: Hinges provided to Blade cover to open & close, EOT crane avoided. Pneumatic torque wrench introduced for tightening blade locking nut.
Hot saw blade change time before modification = 30 mins
Hot saw blade change time after modification = 20 minsNo of blade change = 2 nos/dayPower saving due to reduction in Mill idle time = 91000 unit p.aSavings in FO due to reduction in Mill idle time = 8050 lts p.a
Savings / annum (Power & FO) = Rs.27 Lakhs
Payback Period = Immediate.

5. Reduction in Power Consumption of Hyd systemBefore: Two motors of 36 KW each were running in reheating pusher hyd. System
After: Two motors replaced with single motor of 45 KW. Modification done on hydraulic system. Dual pumps (one pump having high flow and low pressure, another pump having low flow and high pressure) connected to single motor.
Power consumption with two motors of 36 KW each = 302400 units p.a
Two motors replaced with Single motor of 45 KW = 189000 units p.a
