Cargill Plant Worthy of Battle Honor

摘要

During the Lean, Reliable and Lubed 2008 conference earlier this year in Nashville, Tenn., ICML presented Cargill's corn milling operations in Wahpeton, N.D., with the 2007 John R. Battle Award for Excellence in Lubrication. Cargill Wahpeton's journey to attaining world-class status started several years ago. In 2003, the plant identified its lubrication program as a target for improvement as part of the site's overall reliability program. Although lubrication was beginning to be addressed, the plant lacked the on-site expertise and skill required to effectively deploy a world-class lubrication program.
