Two new vertical CNC lathes have begun operation in Machine Shop No. 63. They are designed for machining large gears: one machine can handle workpieces up to 6,300 mm in diameter, the other up to 5,000 mm.
The key advantages of the new equipment are high productivity and precision. The machines are equipped with linear guides and automatic lubrication and cooling systems. This allows them to withstand heavy cutting conditions, reducing the number of roughing passes and overall machining time. Compared to previous models, the new machines operate faster and produce better surface quality.
Currently, production programs for two product lines have already been developed for the machines. The plant plans to significantly expand this product range.
The equipment purchase was made as part of the technical re-equipment investment program—the largest in the TMH Group. The program is being implemented with the support of the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade and loans from the Industrial Development Fund (IDF). It includes not only the modernization of the machine tool fleet but also the development of new component production and the expansion of the plant's testing capacity.
