The Kazan "Center for Digital Technologies" has received two industrial domestic 3D printers from the domestic manufacturer "Zias Machinery" for the production of foundry molds, and has increased its capacity in this area by 2.8 times. Now the company will be able to occupy up to 13% of the Russian market for foundry molds. In particular, its products will be useful in the production of Tu-204 and Tu-214 aircraft, and a number of UAC enterprises, "ODK-Perm Motors" and "KAMAZ" are already interested in it.
Investments in the expansion of production exceeded 173 million rubles, of which 138.5 million rubles were provided by the federal Industrial Development Fund.
With the attraction of the IDF loan, the enterprise has expanded its capabilities for the production of foundry molds, which are subsequently used for the manufacture of high-precision components for aviation, automotive and engine building, and nuclear energy. The use of 3D printing technology allows to obtain castings with complex geometry. In addition, it was possible to quickly establish the production of parts to replace foreign analogues, the supply of which to Russia has been discontinued or is difficult.
At the same time, only Russian raw materials are used in the production of foundry molds and cast products. The localization of this product is 100%.
