Production

The Joint-Stock Company “Production Association "Ural Optical and Mechanical Plant named after Mr. E.S. Yalamov" has a strong production potential. The company operates machining, optical, assembly, electronic, foundry, galvanic, finishing production, and also applies new technologies for laser cutting of metals and prototyping.

Machining of the enterprise is equipped with modern CNC-controlled machines that allow processing parts taking into account high requirements for accuracy, cleanliness and mutual positioning of surfaces.

Optical manufacture  of UOMZ produces a variety of optical components using materials designed to work in different optical ranges, including ultraviolet, visible and infrared spectral regions. Molding, grinding and polishing of optical parts is performed on modern precision numerical control machines using diamond tools. To obtain the required properties of parts in modern vacuum plants, optical coatings for various purposes are applied, including: antireflective, current-conducting, polarizing, mirror, beam-splitting, narrow-band filters and others.

One of the activities of optical manufacturing is the production of precision optical scales by the method of reverse photolithography on modern equipment placed in clean rooms. The photomasks of the optical scales are created using a laser image generator, also located in a clean room. To control optical parts, modern instruments are used, including spectrophotometers, interferometers, goniometers, polariscopes, special stands.

Automated electronic production manufactures electronic components on printed circuit boards. On the surface mounting line, automated surface mounting (SMT technology), assembly of components with ball leads (BGA), fine pitch components (FPT-technology) are performed.

Foundry Production of the enterprise uses technologies of injection molding from aluminum, copper and zinc alloys; on melted models of non-ferrous and black alloys; with back pressure; low pressure; on burned models in plaster molds.

Galvanic production of UOMZ is a whole complex including a multi-process coating line, galvanizing and cadmium lines, surface preparation, chemical oxidation and oiling of steels, electrochemical polishing of stainless steels, mechanical processing of aluminum parts.

Assembly production of the enterprise is equipped with modern electrical installation equipment, which ensures high efficiency of installation works. In order to ensure the quality of assembly and alignment work, automated workplaces for setting up PC-based products have been created.

New technologies of laser cutting of metal, prototyping and electroerosive processing of parts have been introduced on the basis of laboratory and production areas of UOMZ. The laser cutting site is equipped with a modern laser installation, which allows "cutting" of metals of different thicknesses. The laser synthesis plant provides for the possibility of manufacturing: product prototypes to test for the collection and conduct of the functional tests; single models for casting complex body parts of high accuracy and density; molding liners of molds, which halves the time frame for the production of equipment; functional prototypes and ready-to-use plastic parts. Modern prototyping technologies at this plant are an integral part of the end-to-end computer-aided design and provide for the production of prototypes, small-series devices, shortening the cycle of progressive blanks manufacturing.

The testing laboratory  of UOMZ is equipped with modern testing equipment that meets Russian and global requirements and carries out mechanical and climatic tests, multiple and single impacts, linear acceleration, exposure to solar radiation, high humidity, as well as static and dynamic dust tests, atmospheric pressure, electric insulation strength in accordance with the field of certification.
