Co-operation with JSW gains momentum
Representatives of LW Bogdanka SA visited Jastrzębska Spółka Węglowa, continuing the activities initiated by the Letter of Intent signed on 30th November 2024. During the meeting, selected companies of the JSW Capital Group were also presented.
The two-day visit began last Friday. Led by Bartosz Rożnawski, Vice President of the Management Board for Production, and Artur Wasilewski, Vice President of the Management Board for Economics and Finance, the guests visited Jastrzębskie Zakłady Remontowe [Jastrzębie-Zdrój Repair Plant] in Suszec. They became familiar with projects carried out within the JSW CG in connection with the unification of mechanised supports and scraper conveyors.
The presented activities will certainly be an introduction to further discussions and the optimal use of new solutions that we are currently implementing and that have been used at JSW for a few years,
– said Bartosz Rożnawski, Vice-President of the Management Board for Production at LW Bogdanka SA, adding:
The solutions that have proven effective in the harsh conditions of JSW's walls can certainly produce good results also here.
The meetings showcased products and services offered by JSW IT Systems and the Central Measurement and Testing Laboratory. The meeting allowed us to broaden our knowledge of the competences of the JSW Capital Group companies, and it is a very good contribution to further co-operation for mutual development,
– summarised Artur Wasilewski, Vice-President of the Management Board for Economic and Financial Affairs at LW Bogdanka SA.
The projects implemented successively over the years in order to unify the machine stock in the area of mechanised supports and belt and scraper conveyors sections is something we can boast about and share our experience,
– said Adam Rozmus, Deputy President of the Management Board of JSW SA for Technical and Operational Affairs.
Ongoing activities related to the improvement of the quality of production and roof steering in longwalls operated at JSW were also presented.
Both parties stressed that the visit had identified the scope for further co-operation at the level of engineering and technical staff.
