Background
Tokyo Steel was founded in 1934. The company acquired a factory site (approximately 503,000 square meters) in Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture based on the factory invitation ordinance. The factory began operations in 1962 with open hearth furnaces. The factory stopped operations of open hearth furnaces in 1977 and installed and began operating two 140 ton electric arc furnaces in 1978. The factory added another 150 ton DC EAF in 1992.[1][2]
