The Plant began manufacture of motors for ЭШ15/90А walking excavators used for surface mining operations in open pits of Kazakhstan.

 Now blanks for this machine are thermally cut for further assembly of units and subunits.

 The contract for manufacture of ПЭВ 143-7кэ У2 and ПЭ 162-6к У2 DC motors was signed at the end of 2018. The finished products will be shipped in June of 2019.

 The new electric motors will replace the machines manufactured by the Plant in 1986 with the same characteristics.

 “The mining industry of Kazakhstan uses the walking excavators with generators and motors manufactured by “Electrotyazhmash”. Having the service life of 15 years, these machines have already worked 30 years, which confirms a high quality of our products”, — Dmitriy Kostyuk, the Acting Director of the Plant, noted.

 The motors are developed by designers of “Electrotyazhmash” in 1969 to be installed on ЭШ15/90А excavators with bucket capacity of 15 m³, at the end of eighties of the last century they were taken out of mass production and are manufactured only to complete the excavators manufactured earlier. The last set of four ПЭВ 143-7кэ У2 motors was manufactured in 2004, and one ПЭ 162-6к У2 motor — in 2011. For all the time, the Plant manufactured about 300 sets. The power of ПЭ 162-6к У2 motor is 710/400 kW, and that of ПЭВ 143-7кэ У2 motor is 220 kW. The mass is 7.9 t and 5.04 t, respectively.

The Plant will deliver 31 motors АД931У2 for trams made by “Tatra-Yug” during the first half of 2019.

 The specialists of our Company started the first stage of work — thermal cutting from rolled metal of blanks for workpieces to be used for manufacture motor units of them.

 “The local Ukrainian content of “Tatra-Yug” manufacture is 90%. “Electrotyazhmash” also contributes to this value by supplying the motors to be installed on the company’s trams. Our cooperation provides teams of many companies with work and economy – with tax payments”, — Dmitriy Kostyuk, the Acting Director of the Plant, noted.

 The contract was signed in February of 2019. The first lot of electric motors will be shipped this year, by the end of April.

 АД931У2 motor is developed by designers of “Electrotyazhmash” in 2015, specially for “Tatra-Yug”.

A solemn signing of a contract on reconstruction Kremenchug Hydroelectric Power Station between JSC “Turboatom, the General Contractor, and PrJSC “Ukrhydroenergo” took place in Kharkov with participation of Vladimir Groysman, the Prime Minister of Ukraine. In the framework of this contract with “Ukrhydroenergo”, “Turboatom” signed a contract with “Electrotyazhmash” for reconstruction of two hydro generators of Units No. 4 and No. 5.

 The Head of the Government remarked that it is necessary to update energy-generating equipment to make Ukraine energetically independent country.

 “Last years the economy demonstrates good growth rate, and it is necessary for us to continue increasing its growth. 25000 employees will be engaged in performance of this contract. We must work all together to make Ukraine rich and strong”, — Vladimir Borisovich said.

 Igor Sirota, the General Director of PrJSC “Ukrhydroenergo”, emphasized that the Government accepted “Ukrhydroenergo” development program for 2016-2026, which provides for increase of energy share of hydraulic energy-generating facilities from 8% to 15%.

 “If we implement this program, then the volume of financing with attraction of investments will total UAH 85 billion where 35% accounts for equipment of “Turboatom” and “Electrotyazhmash”. Thus the share of these Plants will be UAH 28 billion” — Igor Grigoryevich commented.

 The deliveries of the equipment will be completed in spring of 2021. The specialists of the Plant will carry out supervision of installation and testing during putting the equipment into operation.

 “Kremenchug HPS is fully equipped with hydro generators manufactured by “Electrotyazhmash”. During the last 12 years, we conducted reconstruction of five hydro generators of this Station. The new contract is continuation of our cooperation with Ukrhydroenergo”, our largest customer in hydraulic power industry of Ukraine”, — Dmitriy Kostyuk, the Acting Director of the Plant, noted.

 The reconstruction will increase the capacity of the hydroelectric generating sets, their efficiency and extend their service life by 25-40 years.

 The project is financed by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and European Investment Bank.
