OJSC "Michurinsky Plant" Progress "" is a specialized enterprise for the production of complex devices for control systems for rocket and aircraft equipment. In recent years, new products have been mastered: juicers, coffee grinders, electric motors, compressors, appliances for the oil and gas sector and industry.
Historical reference
In 1957, in Michurinsk, the Tambov Region, the production of devices for aircraft control systems was founded. Although the launch of the enterprise took place on 05/18/1957, it took another 10 years to commission additional capacities. By 1967, the main and auxiliary sections were launched, housing and social welfare facilities for workers were built.
The first products of the Michurinsky Progress plant are hydraulic motors, transformers, accelerometers, sensors, power supplies. They are widely used in all types of aircraft: from Il heavy passenger liners to missiles and small UAVs.
In the 70-90s, MZP mastered the production of technically more complex products: three-stage gyroscopes, vibration measuring equipment, gyros stabilizers of the GS series, selsynov, gyroplatforms, electronic components, ABSU, steering wheel sensors.
Time for a change
Since the mid-90s, orders for airline components have plummeted. The administration of the plant in Michurinsk, Tambov region, was forced to cut 2/3 of the staff. In order to save production, a strategic decision was made to redirect part of the capacities to the production of industrial products and household electrical appliances.
In addition to manufacturing elements of aviation automation, the company switched to the production of compressors, juicers, mixers, coffee grinders, pneumatic drives for public transport, low-power electric motors, oil and gas equipment. Today MZP has overcome the difficulties of the transition period and is a stably working company with a developed sales market. The revival of the aviation industry, the increase in aircraft production contributed to an increase in orders for aircraft components. Address of the Michurinsky Progress Plant: 393773, Tambov Region, the city of Michurinsk, Lipetsk Highway, cor. 113.
Oil and gas equipment
One of the activities of the enterprise is the production of products for the oil and gas complex. These are hand pumps, spherical cranes, lubricant superchargers, control blocks to main spherical cranes. These products are in demand by the enterprises of Gazprom and Nefteprom both for replacing obsolete and worn-out components of equipment, and for use in newly constructed gas trunk pipelines. Michurinsky Progress Plant produces:
- Hydraulic pumps for switching cranes of the Du series in manual mode in gas main systems.
- Superchargers for highly viscous materials (manual) HBMr-500. Stuffing devices to pump high-viscosity grease into ball valves.
- Control blocks for cranes of the BUK-1 series. Allow to close / open taps of models Du 150-1400 manually or remotely.
- Drying filters. Designed for cleaning and drying gas of automation devices at compressor stations and main gas pipelines with a diameter of 50 to 1400 mm and a working pressure of 4 and 12 MPa.
Special Purpose Products
Michurinsky Plant "Progress" produces:
- cosine-sinus transformers, selsyn nodes of indication and transmission of remote information;
- gyro electric motors of 3-phase synchronous, asynchronous type;
- 3-phase gyros;
- overload fixation sensors, potentiometric mechanisms, accelerometers, mode registration complexes, as well as flight control systems;
- moment detection sensors;
- accelerometers, sensors to them in inertial navigation systems;
- coordinators, 2- and 3-axis gyrostabilizers;
- gyroscopes to gyrostabilizers;
- electronic blocks of autopilots to autocontrol systems.
Servo for NPP
The product is designed to regulate the operation of an atomic reactor, namely, it provides the movement of absorbing graphite rods in the core.
The servo drive was developed by the Michurinsky Progress plant, taking into account:
- requirements of normative and technical documentation on nuclear safety;
- the ability to install on the regular channels of the CPS;
- functioning in a regular management system without changing the latter;
- the maximum possible use of the standard technology of transport and technological operations available at the NPP.
Appliances
The experience in the production of sophisticated electrical equipment, accumulated over decades, has allowed the Michurinsky Progress plant to produce a number of domestic electrical appliances of its own design. Perhaps the design of the products is far from the products of famous brands, but the technical filling is reliable and good performance.
In addition to coffee, electric shock grinders of ECMU “IP” series allow grinding a wide range of products: from spices and nuts to cereals and even dried peas, characterized by high hardness. Thanks to the installation of a high-speed motor, engineers were able to achieve finer grinding. Naturally, the device is certified for compliance with safety requirements, electromagnetic compatibility and sanitary and hygienic requirements.
The SVPP series electro juicers stand out among competitors by their increased productivity at a low cost. They are used to squeeze juices from vegetables and fresh fruits. The product complies with the norms of ROSS RU.AYA73.V06047 and the hygienic certificate 068TTS03-346T-00316-08.
