KNRTU presented with its partner JSC Vakuummash new oil-free screw type vacuum pumps for medium vacuum, and turbomolecular pumps, which are now currently installed in the Vostochny cosmodrome. The developments were presented at the exposition in Naberezhnye Chelny during the events dedicated to Machine Builder’s Day.

“Now Kazan covers the whole range of operating pressures and our partner Vakuummash is one of the leading machine building companies in the industry” – says Alexey Burmistrov, Director of Chemical and Petroleum Mechanical Engineering Institute at KNRTU.

By the way, KNRTU is the company’s supporting university. The KNRTU department is located there, and there are many our graduates among the leading specialists of the company. “This year our industry faced a number of challenges like the foreign trade restriction, the disruption of supply chains and cutting off accessibility to the foreign technologies and credit resources.

“However, even in the conditions of sanctions, due to the teamwork, our machine builders are successfully solving the set tasks, implementing new developments and become familiar with high-tech products,” said Rustam Minnikhanov, President of Tatarstan.
