By 2025, the Ministry of Education and Science expects its well-established production and implementation for the needs of partner enterprises of the Tactical Missile Armament Corporation
MOSCOW, May 25. /tass/. The domestic technology of manufacturing carbide cutting tools, which is not inferior in characteristics to leading imported analogues, will be fully developed and adapted by 2023. The development will be in demand by partner enterprises of the Tactical Missile Armament Corporation, the press service of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia told TASS on Wednesday.
Today, the domestic tool market is dominated by imported products of multinational giants Sandvik Coromant, Seco, Iskar. More than 90% of the carbide tools in Russia are imported, which until recently ensured the efficient operation of modern high-precision machines with high-speed spindles to achieve maximum productivity.
"Orenburg scientists were among the first to adapt the technology of manufacturing high-quality tools made of hard alloy together with the enterprise of the defense complex. Large-scale research in cooperation with the regional enterprise JSC "PO "Strela" is carried out on the basis of the scientific and educational center (REC) "New Materials and promising Technologies", created as part of the implementation of the federal program of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia "Priority 2030", the message says.
It is expected that the manufacturing technology will be fully developed and adapted by 2023 on the basis of the industrial partner of Orenburg State University (OSU) - JSC PO Strela. And by 2025, the production and sale of carbide tools for the needs of partner enterprises of the Tactical Missile Armament Corporation have been established.
"One of the main directions of the strategy for the development of domestic industry is to achieve a reduction in dependence on imported tools from 90 to 40% by 2025. Previously, the main suppliers of blanks for axial cutting tools were foreign companies. At the same time, enterprises face the task of gradual import substitution of prefabricated and monolithic cutting tools," said Elena Priymak, senior researcher at the REC "New Materials and Promising Technologies", whose words are quoted in the message.
