BMK takes part in the international industrial exhibition "Innoprom-2019"

Beloretsk Metallurgical Plant (AO BMK, part of the Mechel Group) participates in the 10th international industrial exhibition Innoprom, which takes place from 8 to 11 July in Yekaterinburg.

At the common stand of the Mechel Group, BMK presented samples of the main types of products: a variety of wires and ropes. The greatest interest among the guests of the exhibition was aroused by the new exclusive products of the plant: microwires for high-tech industries and polymer-coated ropes.

BMK produces microwires with diameters starting from 0.009 mm, which is used in aerospace, radio-electronic, electronic and medical industries, in paper, glass and food industries. The plant is the only enterprise in the country where microwire is produced 5-8 times thinner than a human hair. A stainless microwire with a diameter of 0.03 millimeters, presented at the stand, is used to make mesh for fuel filters for aircraft and spacecraft. A sound microwire with a diameter of 0.05 mm is used in "black boxes" (onboard speech recorders). It is manufactured in cooperation with other enterprises of the Mechel Group - Uralskaya Kuznitsa and Izhstal. In 2018, BMK received a gold medal at the Metal-Expo exhibition for the development and implementation of technology for the production of this microwire.

Another promising product is ropes with a number of strands from 6 to 12 and a diameter of up to 90 millimeters, including with polymer coating, for the oil and gas and mining industries, bridge and shipbuilding. BMK launched their production in December 2018 with the support of the RF Industry Development Fund. New ropes are not inferior in quality to foreign products and are more attractive in price. Test lots of this new BMK have been supplied to domestic consumers and to foreign countries.

Innoprom is the main industrial, trade and export platform in Russia. The exhibition serves as a platform where the foundations of industrial policy are laid. About 80% of the exhibition visitors are professional buyers from around the world, specialists from industrial enterprises who make decisions on the introduction of new products and technologies in production.
