Specialists of the Ulan-Ude Instrument-Making Production Association, which is part of the Radioelectronic Technologies Concern (KRET, part of the Rostec State Corporation), have completed factory tests of the latest electric motors designed for unmanned aircraft systems.
Yuri Trutnev, Plenipotentiary Representative of the President of the Russian Federation in the Far Eastern Federal District, shared important information. He personally familiarized himself with the promising development of the enterprise during his visit to Buryatia.
After examining not only the new electric motors, but also the electric filters, the Presidential Envoy called for the continuation and strengthening of work in this direction, emphasizing the importance of developing own technologies in the strategic sector of unmanned systems.
The first pilot batch of modern electric motors has already passed factory tests, as well as tests as installed samples on the Buryat-10 aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicle. The products are made entirely from domestic components and, unlike foreign counterparts, are lighter in weight with higher efficiency. The company is ready to put the entire product line into production. There is the necessary human resources and machine tool fleet for this.
The Ulan-Ude Instrument-Making Production Association is currently the only enterprise in Siberia and the Far East that develops modern brushless stepper electric motors and generators. These types of motors are widely used in aviation drones, industry and mechanical engineering.
The company has already successfully developed four types of electric motors with names inspired by the Baikal winds: «Sarma», «Khius», «Barguzin», «Kultuk». Each of them stands out with unique parameters, including power.
KRET electric motors differ from foreign counterparts in their lower weight and increased efficiency - this allowed developers to install more additional attachments on unmanned vehicles.
