Ryazan Machine Tool Plant (RSZ) is the largest specialized enterprise in the post-Soviet space for the manufacture of metal-cutting equipment and machine tools (including large ones) for various purposes. It is the most important city-forming industrial enterprise of Ryazan.
Description
The construction of the Ryazan Machine Tool Plant began in 1944, and the first product was released four years later. Today, the enterprise is spread over 52 hectares, about 3,000 workers work in its walls. Here, for the first time in the Soviet Union, a CNC machine was designed using domestic components. For almost 70 years of successful work in the RSZ workshops, more than 160,000 machine tools have been assembled, 30,000 of which are with numerical software, which were supplied to 80 countries.
History reference
The Ryazan Machine Tool Plant was one of the first post-war industries built with the goal of speedy recovery of the Soviet economy. It is based on captured equipment repatriated from defeated Germany. German machines were delivered to Ryazan in 508 cars at the site of the enterprise under construction. In 1946, they completed their commissioning, and from 1949 they began to produce turning and screw-cutting metal-cutting complexes.
Near Ryazan machine-tool plant, the village of Prioksky grew up, today it is a large municipal formation, which became part of Ryazan. In 1960-1980, the RSZ assortment consisted mainly of general-purpose metal-cutting equipment for a screw-cutting group. Revolutionary for the domestic industry was the development of its own unique CNC machines, which allowed to increase productivity simultaneously with improved processing accuracy.
In the early 1990s, the enterprise was transformed into OJSC Ryazan Machine Tool Plant. In 2000, a change of ownership took place, and the RosStanKom PG came to production management. RSZ has become the base enterprise of the machine-tool holding. Today, the plant works with all sectors except woodworking. This includes the energy and aviation industries, and railway transport, and oil and gas production.
Quality
In 2003, production at the Ryazan Machine Tool Plant in Ryazan was certified according to ISO 9001: 2000 standards in accordance with international requirements. The company developed a coherent management scheme, changed and adjusted the organization structure in order to optimize costs. Within the framework of the enterprise, the issue of quality assurance was put in the priority direction. The best workers were given personal stigmas. Therefore, situations of claims by operators are quickly resolved. The heads of the workshops were also assigned a part of the responsibility for the manufactured products.
The technological process is structured so that the machines of the Ryazan machine-tool plant are manufactured according to the full production cycle: from casting cases and beds to painting and finishing. No wonder the main slogan of the plant says: "Your consumer is the manufacturer of the next operation." It emphasizes the norm of responsibility of workers between workshops for manufactured equipment.
