History

NITI Progress OJSC was established in 1959.

For half a century, the Institute mastered the unique technological processes of electron beam and argon arc welding of complex-alloyed steels and alloys, local thermal treatment, the manufacture of high-strength pipes by rotary forging, tire balancing, abrasive-rotary processing, the manufacture of thin-walled shells by rotary drawing, etc.

As of October 31, 2013, the main specialization of the institute:

• welding technologies and equipment (electron beam welding, argon arc welding, contact welding);

tire equipment for industry;

• service equipment for the oil industry;
• special and non-standard equipment;
• technologies and engineering of mechanical processing plants.

The Institute performs a full cycle of engineering work:

• design,
• manufacture and implementation of turnkey equipment.

2023: Unique Russian 11-axis robotic manipulator for welding switched to domestic software

The Progress Research Technological Institute (NITI) has developed its own ON for a unique 11-axis robotic manipulator for electron beam welding, the press service said on Rostec December 7, 2023. Progress started creating software after the foreign vendor refused to cooperate. The name of the foreign IT company has not been disclosed.

The new software developed at NITI Progress made it possible to achieve high accuracy of control of the anthropomorphic manipulator and ensured its operation at the required speed and given orientation of the electron beam gun in space. The software allows you to automatically build a welding program through reference points without writing code, and also provides synchronization between gun movement and control of electron beam parameters.

Progress has developed its own software for a unique 11-axis robot manipulator for electron beam welding

CNC systems of their own design are used in NITI Progress in the manufacture of the most complex electron beam welding plants with a robot manipulator inside a vacuum chamber, which no company in Russia anymore produces. The new software allows you to achieve high accuracy of manipulator control due to the ability to describe in the CNC system the functions of direct and reverse conversion of the coordinates of mechanical axes to the coordinates of the gun position in the space of the working chamber of the installation. This makes it possible to train the installation control system for movement along the welding trajectory in Cartesian coordinates of the working chamber with given gun orientation in space and working distance, which significantly speeds up the preparation of welding programs. When working with the installation, the operator can simultaneously control nine interpolated axes, including the beam current and its focus current during welding.^[1]
