Profit Center Plus (PCP) has announced the launch of a fully localized production of polymer separators for bearings in Chelyabinsk. This was reported by the press service of the Industrial Development Fund of the Chelyabinsk Region.
The new production will allow Russian Railways (RZD) to avoid a shortage of components as part of a large-scale project to build a high-speed railway line between Moscow and St. Petersburg. To implement this import-substitution project, the fund allocated a concessional loan of almost 9 million rubles.
These parts are used in the units of tapered, axlebox, and roller bearings — important components of locomotives on main railways. Previously, polymer separators were purchased from Swedish manufacturers, which created dependence on imports.
In 2025, it is planned to produce 8,256 polymer separators, and in 2026 — 35,856. This will amount to about 25-30% of the total domestic market volume. In the future, it is possible to increase this figure to 60%.
Earlier www1.ru reported that TMH mastered the production of gearboxes for Ivolga electric trains.
