Mounted first lines of new galvanic production Proton-PM

In the new building of the Proton-PM country site (included in the integrated structure of the NGO Energomash State Corporation “Roskosmos”), the installation and assembly of the first electroplating lines of silverings and gilding are completed. The work was performed by the contractor specialists – Togat (Tambov).

The silver process is already applied in the enterprise, while the gilding is a new type of coating. At the moment, an action plan for organizing a new site is being formed. Technological processes are being developed for test processing of products on mounted lines. In February of this year, it is planned to start commissioning equipment, and in April – to put it into operation.

works are provided for by the investment project “Technical re-equipment of a complex of lines of electrochemical coatings”. The new galvanic workshop Proton-PM will be located on an area of ​​11.3 thousand square meters. M and will be equipped with modern equipment that meets all technological and environmental requirements. Ten lines of the complex will allow to apply all types of coatings used in the manufacture of rocket engines: in addition to silver and gilding, it is phosphating, chromening, galvanizing, nickel, mangating, lead, cadming, and others.

Taras Compan, Chief Engineer Proton-PM: “Project solutions implemented during the organization of the new complex will increase the quality of galvanic coatings and perform several technological processes at the same time, thereby increasing performance. At the same time, we strive to create a comfortable and safe working work. Wednesday for our employees. This will be achieved at the expense of automation that minimizes human contacts with electroplating baths, as well as the use of sewage treatment plants and deactivation systems. “
