As a mechanic
Kawasaki Steel established an integrated network comprising a total of six all-weather berths for loading and unloading at its Mizushima Works, Chiba Works, Chita Works and to improve transportation efficiency by the domestic vessels on which the company depends for approximately 70% of its steel product transportation. The Osaka Service Center, because it is located on a public wharf, has adopted the retractable vessel housing method for the first time in Japan. With a fixed shed eqipped with both a ceiling crane and a movable shed which moves on an overhanging guard, the facility can be used in the shut down condition, and is possible to operate in both good and inclement weather. In addition, a multipurpose semi-automatic crane was adopted to improve loading and unloading efficiency. Kawasaki Steel consequently realized a basic transportation improvement by achieving labor saving, improvement in the labor environment, and a 90% all-weather berth work ratio.
