2023: The region's first center for industrial 3D printing is being created in the Far East
Rusatom-Additive Technologies (RusAT) and the Far Eastern Federal University (FEFU) have agreed to create the first center for additive common access technologies (TsATOD) in the Far East, where students will be able to engage in research and practical work in the interests of oil refineries, ship repair, aircraft building and shipbuilding enterprises. The press service of the university announced this in mid-March 2023. Read more here.
2020: Center for Additive Technologies opens
On December 26, 2020, it became known that RuSat - Additive Technologies opened its first Center for Additive Technologies (CAT) at the site of the Moscow Polymetal Plant. Read more here.
2018: Building a company
On February 12, 2018, Rosatom announced the creation of a separate company that will specialize in 3D printing technologies. The structure was called "RuSat - Additive Technologies" (LLC "RusAT").
RusAT will focus on four key areas: the production of 3D printers and their components, the creation of materials and metal powders for 3D printing, the development of comprehensive software for additive systems, as well as the implementation of services for 3D printing and the introduction of additive technologies into production (including in terms of organizing production centers).
Serial production of equipment and materials will be established at various enterprises of Rosatom, but mainly at TVEL plants in Novouralsk, Sverdlovsk Region - LLC NPO Centrotech and JSC UEHK. There are additional opportunities at the production site to create new production facilities in this area in the future, Rosatom reports.
The strategic goal of RusAT is to receive revenue of up to 50 billion rubles by 2025 and a 1.5% share in the global market for additive technologies. Rosatom promises that the cost of a domestic printer will be 20% lower than analogues, and the characteristics will be higher.
At the same time, the needs, for example, of medical institutions of our country only in endoprostheses that can be manufactured on our 3D printers, up to 100 thousand per year, "said Aleksei Dub, Deputy Head of Science and Innovation JSC, who was appointed General Director of RusAT LLC. |
He also said that Rosatom enterprises have developed a prototype of a second-generation industrial 3D printer. By the end of 2018, it is planned to begin its mass production in Novouralsk.
The management of the new company will begin work in February 2018, the press service of Rosatom reported[1]
