The Chelyabinsk steel structure plant has been producing products for almost 80 years. Having started work during the war years, the enterprise did not stop its activity even in the most crisis years. Today ChZMK is one of the flagships of the industry, equipped with advanced technologies and new production lines.

A factory for factories

The official date of birth of ChZMK is May 10, 1942. The enterprise became the successor of the Uralstalmost plant. Workshops began to be built on the outskirts of the city, where the workshops for the production of steel structures were previously located. Simultaneously with the construction of production facilities, the production of metal elements for many future industrial giants began.

Designs were required for the metallurgical plants of Magnitogorsk, tractor, mechanical, metallurgical, forge-and-press, ferroalloy and many other plants were built in Chelyabinsk, products were sent to the Miass Automobile Plant, as well as to the Chelyabinsk CHPP-1.

ForWins

The first production line was launched in the summer of 1942, when the enterprise received an unspoken status - "factory of factories", as they began to call the steel structure plant of Chelyabinsk. The first absolutely non-construction products in the year of the opening of the enterprise were guides for rocket launchers for the famous Katyushas.

Until the end of the war, the plant produced not only military equipment, but also civilian products. For various enterprises, 22 open-hearth furnaces, designs of four blast furnaces, more than 300 bridges, about 20 workshops for various purposes and many other engineering structures were manufactured.

Years of development and creation

After the war, active restoration work began in the country. The Chelyabinsk Steel Structures Plant supplied products to the Mariupol Azovstal Plant, the Minsk Tractor Plant, the Kuibyshev and Volgograd State District Power Plants. Until 1960, the volume of production, in comparison with the war period, increased to 73 thousand tons, which is 2.5 times higher than the starting capacity.

In 1972, the company carried out work to improve the quality of manufactured structures by opening in-line painting shops and tubular structures. This allowed the plant to enter the international market.

In the period of the 70-80s, ChZMK paid attention to the organization of labor safety, comfort for workers and the continuity of labor generations. A household building was built with comfortable locker rooms and showers. A training center, a technical library with a huge fund of professional literature and a conference hall began to work. In the early 80s at the factoryproduced the anniversary 100,000th ton of products.

Today Chelyabinsk Metal Structures Plant JSC is the flagship of the industry. The company employs about 2 thousand employees who are able to perform tasks of any complexity. Products are in demand at home - metal structures have become part of the workshops of Mechel OJSC, Atommash, VAZ, OJSC MMK and many others. Foreign deliveries are made to Algeria, China, Mongolia, Cuba, India and other countries.

For all the time of its activity, the Chelyabinsk metalwork plant has become a participant in the construction of such unique architectural structures as Moscow State University, the Olimpiysky sports complex, the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the Moscow metro ring line and many others. Metal structures were created for the native city, which became the basis of the Yunost Sports Palace, the Circus, the Academic Drama Theater, etc.

Negative reviews

The negative reviews say that success largely depends on the management of the company. With the arrival in 2017 of a new director, who is not familiar not only with the enterprise, but with the industry as a whole, the situation at the plant has not changed for the better. Many felt that innovations were flawed, there were no orders, raw materials for production were not purchased, and workers were unemployed. Many people do unusual jobs - snow removal instead of milling or washing shops instead of painting.

Claims to wages have appeared, the new terms of the employment contract directly indicate that the payment will be minimal, the rest of the additional payments are possible only in the form of bonuses,bonuses, and it is almost impossible to get them. A system of fines with vague wording has been introduced. For these reasons, as well as the changed atmosphere in the team, many employees prefer to quit, although they are representatives of family dynasties.
