JSC «Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant" (KUMZ) was created with the goal of providing airlines the products from a special magnesium and high-strength aluminum alloys. Today the company has significantly expanded the scope of activities. Its products are used in aerospace, shipbuilding, transport engineering, power engineering, construction industry.

OAO Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant

First steps

By the end of 30 years aviation has advanced considerably in development. To replace slow-moving plywood gliders came quicker “metal” aircraft. To reduce the weight of machinery in construction started to use light alloys based on magnesium and aluminum. For their production in 1939, the Council of Ministers of the USSR decided to build on the Ural, Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant. Work on its construction began in the spring of 1940.

During the Second world war, the company received casting and rolling equipment Stupino metallurgical plant, evacuated from the Moscow region. The first plate of aluminum alloy was manufactured in February 1942. And the first forged and extruded products were produced in the fall of 1943. Interestingly, the date of birth of the unique manufacture is not the actual beginning of the work, and publication in the Union newspaper “True” from 5.05.1944.

Ongoing development

After the war, the government had the resources to develop the industry. At Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant (KUMZ) received high-rolling equipment, which allowed significantly expand the capacity of production. In 1949, the company started to produce aluminum cookware.

In the 50-ies KUMZ increased production capacity. Built new sections:

  • Forging (1951).
  • Foundry (1958).
  • Extrusion (1959).

The Plant in 1958 made the first export shipment that included 2952 metric tons of rolled aluminum. In the same year for the first time carried out the production of magnesium the rental.

Expansion of the range

In the early 50-ies at Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant began production of lightweight drill pipe made of aluminum alloy. For this purpose we built a new shop.

In 1966 the company launched the first automated line for production of heat exchangers. From this point KUMZ participates in the production of high quality household and industrial refrigerators. 8.07.1978 year achievements of the team awarded the order of the red banner of Labour “For the successful development of production and implementation of new technologies”.

The Plant participated (and participates) in all the national space programs. Factory workers involved in the construction of ships in the series “East”, “Sunrise”. The team participated in the implementation of international programs «Peace», «salute" ISS "proton" and others.

Time for change

30.11.1992 year, the company was reorganized into OJSC “Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant". In 2007, a project was launched called "Chkalov", in which was introduced the innovative technology of heat treatment of plates.

In 2011, KUMZ has entered into contracts for the construction of a new rental complex, consisting of rolling mills and heat treatment of sheet metal. The total investment is estimated at half a billion euros. In the spring of 2012 after the modernization was launched a unique vertical press stamp 300 MN.

The Foundry

At Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant (KUMZ) foundry plot is one of the main. The raw material for the plant is pure aluminum, alloying components, and scrap aluminum. The production is equipped with high-performance became:

  • Elektrovakuumnye;
  • Elektricheskimi;
  • Indukcionnye;
  • Gotovymi.

This allows Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant to provide other areas of high quality forged aluminium alloys, slabs, ingots. Specialists mastered the production of about 70 aluminum alloys according to Russian standards and more than 20 – international (ASTM, EN, DIN).

Mill products

The Company is one of the few global manufacturers of aluminum-lithium alloys and sheets of them. Kamensk-Uralsky metallurgical plant equipped with one machine hot rolling mill and two cold rolling Quarto of the company.

In Addition to plates with flat surfaces, KUMZ produces a surface with notches-tread that prevents slipping. They are used for flooring of buses, trucks, rail cars, drill strings.

In 2012, the plant installed a water jet (waterjet) cutter. It allows you to cut a rectangular plate on the workpiece even the most complex shapes. Specially treated aluminum plates and sheets used by Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier in the aircraft Assembly.

Miscellaneous manufacturing

The plant has 39 horizontalhydraulic extrusion presses with capacity from 500 to 12000 tonnes. They are located in four buildings. In the tool shop produces more than 20000 kinds of aluminum profiles, 550 types of rods of various sizes, 850 kinds of pipes.

Blacksmithing KUMZ meets the needs of the leading Russian design Bureau Tupolev, Ilyushin, Sukhoi, Yakovlev, Antonov. Equipment includes hydraulic vertical forging installation from 1,250 up to 30,000 tons hydraulic forging press with capacity of 6,000 tons, radial stamping press. It produces 1,500 types of presswork, 1200 kinds of forged products 1600 and sizes of rolling rings weighing from 0.1 kg to 3000 kg.
