LLC Krasnoye Echo modernizes  Fabrication and increases volumes of the product output

LLC Krasnoye Echo modernizes Fabrication and increases volumes of the product output

Within 2013-2020 the enterprise performed a large-scale reconstruction of glass production. Instead of the outdated glass melting furnaces, modern furnaces from the SORG company were built with a capacity of 300 t / day each. The company replaced the old glass-forming machines for new ones ISS10 Sklostroj и Heye SpeedLine, operating in 2 and 3 goblet modes. The product output is carried out using BB, PB and NNPB technologies. Cold ends were replaced with the installation of Zecchetti transportation and packaging lines and Tiama MCAL4, MULTI4, MX4 control machines.

Modernization of production in the foundry and mechanical workshops of the LLC Krasnoye Echo was performed.

The outdated earth casting technology was replaced with much more advanced technology of casting manufacturing using cold-hardening mixtures. New moulding and melting equipment was installed, new annealing furnaces with controllable pitch of heating and cooling were installed. Earlier, in March of 2016, the machining facilities base were modernized. The workshop equipment was replenished with new robotic machining complexes, automatic surfacing centers and modern control and measuring equipment.

In the 2000s, the company actively continues to develop and build up production capacity. In 2004 at the Urshel site, a new workshop No. 4 was built and commissioned to manufacture glass containers made of flint glass. The workshop No. 4 passed all stages of revival from dismantling in January of 2003 to the output of the “first bottle” in October of 2004. Modern sectional glass-forming machines AL - 1110, AL-1210, AL-118V were installed in the workshop. The range of manufactured products was enlarged; new types of exclusive packaging were put into production, the volume of output increased significantly.

In 2000, at the initiative of Yuri Dzhimovich Klegg, the General Director of OJSC Krasnoye Echo the restoration of one of the oldest glass container factories in Russia began. On site of Urshelsky glass plant construction of a new workshop No. 3 for the production of flint glass containers took place. As early as in June of 2001, 370 jobs were created and the production of finished products began. During the period from 2000 to 2005 on the basis of two production sites, “Krasnoye Echo” and "Urshel", a developed industrial infrastructure of the glass company Krasnoye Echo was in progress.

The workshop No. 1 was reconstructed with the replacement of three obsolete BB-7 glass-forming machines for two modern sectional glass-forming machines AL-1110, with a capacity of 135 million pieces per year. Because of the reconstruction and installation of new glass-forming equipment the volume of finished products increased by 40%.

In 1997, reconstruction was performed in the workshop No. 2 with replacement of the outdated glass-forming equipment for new sectional machines of AL-118 type with a capacity of 163 million pieces per year. System of technological process automation and computerization was implemented. The modernization made it possible to expand the range of products, improve quality and increase the production volume by 1.5 times.

Glass factory Krasnoye Echo became a joint stock company

One of the important stages in the history of the plant's development dates back to 1992. During the privatization carried out in the country, the enterprise was transformed to the open joint-stock company Krasnoye Echo. The enterprise began implementation of a program to modernize production and create a strong production infrastructure. During the period from 1992 to 1996 the mechanical workshop, a boiler room, energy, heat and gas utilities, equipment of auxiliary workshops, compressor and power substation were built and updated. The enterprise management system improved and the social sector developed.

Technical growth and mechanization of production at the glass factory Krasnoye Echo

At the Krasnoye Echo plant within the period of 1965-1974, manufacturing mechanization process was being underway; the working conditions of the employees were being improved. In 1972, the laborious process of bottles packaging was mechanized. The reconstruction carried out in the 1950s laid the foundation for the enterprise technical growth. In 1953, a power plant was built. In 1955, the transition to centralized power supply was carried out. In 1962, the plant was transferred to heating with liquid fuel, and in 1963 – by natural gas. Automatic regulation system was introduced for operation of the glass-melting tank and annealing furnace.

In 1933, a locomobile and an engine were purchased for a local power plant. In 1935, 6 "Schiller" semi-automatic devices were installed at the production site. Later, vehicles were purchased for the delivery of raw materials, fuel and export of products. In 1937, the plant employed 562 people. The enterprise produced 11 million bottles per year.

Novo-Gordinsky plant was founded for the production of glassware

Novo-Gordinsky plant was founded for the production of glassware

In 1875, near the Poboika river, in Vladimirsky district, the merchant Komissarov from Sudogoda built a glassware plant. Convenient location among woodlands, close to sources of raw materials contributed to the rapid development of this production facility. Already in 1910, 140 glassmakers were employed at the plant, The output was 3 630 000 dark green glass bottles. In 1923, a continuous glass-melting furnace was commissioned; it made 6720 kg of glassware per day. In 1924, the second continuous furnace was started, in the same year, the plant workers decided to rename Novo-Gordinsky plant into Krasnoye Echo one.
