In the face of the K-4 tractor developed by St. Petersburg Tractor Plant, Kirovets usually received the younger brother - it is not only younger, but also less and less and in mass, and in size. It is not surprising: the newbie refers to the middle class, in which until recently the Kharkov HTZ dominated undisputed.

Now K-4, which at the factory is affectionately called "Riothe", on russian market Must press the honored Kharkiv citizen

Modern Yaroslavl 6-cylinder diesel engine of the NMZ-23625 ecological class Stage 3A (with the perspective of Stage 3B) with a guaranteed resource of at least 10 thousand hours, automatic transmission ZF production, very comfortable and unusually spacious by the standards of domestic tractor equipment Double cabin with air conditioning, five hydrolynes for the rear hide and one for anterior, as well as an overall width of 2.55 m, which allows you to freely move on public roads.

With a length of 7.15 m, the tractor has a rotation radius along the outer wheel of 5.8 m and the operational mass of 9-12 tons depending on the configuration. In the basic version, the engine is developing 240 hp, but over time it is planned to offer customers a modification with the Yaroslavl 190-strong "four". Powerful hydraulic system is equipped with pneumatic or electrical control. Tires dimension 23.1R26 provide ground clearance (under the hinge axis) at 520 mm. The rear mounted device of category III - IV with a hook and, on request, with a pendulum, front mounted device - Categories III. Their carrying capacity on the suspension axis is, respectively, 6.5 and 4.5 tons.

Bridges for configuration K-4 supplies the Belarusian "Amkodor", but the factory workers promise to develop a completely different transmission over time. And there is a certain reason in this: while the tractor is in triggering, while in the designs they catch small shortcomings, their production is carried out by a strife. But in the near future, the car is going to put on the conveyor, because in the opinion of the plant's marketers, the need for various modifications K-4 will be up to 3 thousand per year. In this case, there is really reason to localize the most costly transmission elements.

St. Petersburg Tractor Plant, which is part of the Kirov Plant Group of Companies, is one of the few domestic engineering enterprises, which can be successfully competing with foreign manufacturers. Even in the conditions of the economic crisis, tractors of the famous Soviet brand "Kirovets" enjoy sustainable demand in Russia. And they are exported today in 30 countries of the world.

The former Kirov plant is an enterprise with the richest working traditions and the collectivist spirit, which here retained contrary to the "reforms" of liberals and market whistle. The factory often has the leader of the Russian Communists Gennady Andreevich Zyuganov, and during the recent presidential election campaign, answering numerous questions, the CPRF Candidate and People's Patriotic Forces of Russia Pavel Nikolaevich Pader. To come to the city on the Neva and not to visit the St. Petersburg tractor, the people's candidate could not. Everyone was waiting for him here. After all, according to the worldview and attitude to the life of workers, engineers and plant management were and remained by Soviet people, real patriots, as if there were no decades wild market and Gorbachevsky collapse.

The journalists of the Red Line channel came to St. Petersburg Tractor due to what they learned: the next novelty is coming from the factory conveyor - the model "Kirovets K-4", the middle class tractor with the engine 240 horse power, a little longer longer than seven meters and overall width just two and a half meters. Machines precisely with such characteristics today is especially lacking rural producers in Russia. Even relatively recently, the middle-class model was acquired in Ukraine, where they are released by the Kharkov Tractor Plant. But after the Kiev regime began to build a barrier barrier between the Barrier countries, cooperation was impossible. Even with the acquisition of the most simple spare parts from the peasants, irresistible problems arose. So a group of engineers-designers from St. Petersburg Tractor, led by Alexei Gavrilov, took up the development domestic model Tractor "Kirovets K-4" is very on time. And the result exceeded all expectations.

Materials on the topic

Today, Gavrilov Group closely interacts with colleagues from Germany: those want to provide their company a contract for the production of hydraulic assemblies for new models of Kirovsz. But first, these nodes must be designing - these are engaged in German engineers with the help of their Russian colleagues.

"Many foreigners themselves turn to us, because they are interested in cooperation with the plant," says Alexey Gavrilov. - We are the only enterprise in Russia, where the release of tractors is growing steadily, and everyone knows that.

However, three-quarters of component of modern "Kirovtsev" - domestic production. Thanks to this, the cars are well adapted to russian conditions, work almost reliable. And cost much cheaper than capricious Western counterparts.

The chief designer of the plant Mikhail Lebedev is behind the computer, as for Kulm. The habit is preserved since that time, when no one heard about any computers for the design of new models of tractors.

But when the unknown before the technologies became commonplace, the design of modern tractors went very quickly. Task to design "Kirovets K-4" - "Kiryuch", how they died this model at the factory, the Designer Bureau of Lebedev received at the very end of 2016. And it was tightened. January - February - the beginning of drawing, June - July - the issuance of the drawings. In October, the assembly started, and in November the first batch of cars created from scratch had already shipped to customers.

A person injecting is very difficult to understand what it is: to design and launch a completely new tractor in a series in a series when banks do not give loans to manufacturers, and the industry deliberately destroyed, half of the suppliers went bankrupt and, most importantly, when the peasants simply have no money for the purchase Technique.

"It is impossible to talk about the development of agricultural machinery in the separation from the development of all agriculture in the country," explains the director of the St. Petersburg Tractor Plant Sergey Serebryakov. - And in the separation from the general credit and financial system and the macroeconomic environment that established in Russia, to argue about the problems of agricultural engineering simply stupid.

There are no answers to most of the economic policy policies of the government and its attitude to the problems of the industry in Sergei Serebryakov today. He does not want to call the chamber of the ministers of the financial and economic block in the pest. And how to call them differently - does not know. Nevertheless, against the background of issues that are not answered, the St. Petersburg plant has put on the fields of Russia, the near and far abroad more than 2,000 Tractors "Kirovets", as well as spare parts for them totaling 12.7 billion rubles. This, the director says, today - one of the best indicators in the industry over the past 25 years.

Assembly shop. Future tractors "Kiryusha" stand in line at the factory conveyor. Every day, several cars go on the finished form on the run. The deputy head of the assembly shop of Nikolai Grigoriev shows journalists of the TV channel "Red Line" the capabilities of the new model:

- Here is the control keys hinged equipment. Previously, when the aggregates hook were difficult: jumped from the cabin to the cabin or needed the second person. Now hanging equipment can one tractor driver literally in counting seconds.

St. Petersburg frost crashes to the bones, but the Grigoriev does not pay attention to bad weather. Empirely explains how a competitive tractor is consigned from simple buttons and other little things in which everything is thought out for convenience and efficient operation of the mechanic.

Nikolay Lio unfolds the tractor on the factory pen. He says that it is proud of the machines that produce the plant. And not just an abstract plant, but the people who work on it.

Grigoriev himself came to St. Petersburg Tractor not so long ago, in 2008. I started the collector. Then he worked as a test driver, in a year he returned to the workshop, became a brigadier, a master. Now - deputy head of the workshop. Very grateful to the veterans of the plant, who convey the experience of young people. They, young, at the factory are the road everywhere.

In the team Alexei Gavrilova, the head of the project "Kirovets K-4", mostly young people. He himself has no forty. The speed with which these young guys work is striking. The design decision is found for counting hours.

- The factory is clearly established by the system of interaction between different divisions, "explains the engineer. - No intermediaries. No need to expect a response, approval of changes. Everything happens here very quickly. I went to the shop, discussed, agreed in the morning, in the evening - the result.

Alexey admits that about his model, Kirovets K-4, thinks constantly. "Kiryusha" he even dreams. And how to construct the element of the cooling system of one of the engines, realized when drove into the subway.

"It was in the evening, I returned from work," he recalls. - in the morning came to the guys, explained his idea, and we took the drawings.

The fact that the St. Petersburg plant and tractors of the Soviet brand "Kirovets" have a great future, the creator of "Kiryuchi" does not doubt.

"We are the only enterprise in Russia that makes cars of this class," the designer explains. - Agricultural machinery in the country will always be needed. Everyone want to eat. Without tractors, you will not stay. The plant will live and develop. I look very optimistic about it. We still do not do this!

Dmitry Medvedev arrived in St. Petersburg today to support Russian agricultural machinery producers, and visited the profile exhibition passing there. The premier carefully examined the exposition and even got behind the wheel of one of the exhibits - the tractor K708.4-200 "Kiryusha". Having rolled by car at the exhibition site, the head of government concisely summarized his impressions:

"Well managed. Elegantly. Modern car. "

Of course, the visit of such an important person to the agrarians test drive was not limited. Dmitry Medvedev said that he ordered to additionally allocate 10 billion rubles to support enterprises producing agricultural equipment, and signed a government decree with the rules for providing funds from the federal budget to the participants of industrial clusters. The premiere comment on this is the news agency TASS:

"Subsidies will be reimbursed by part of the costs in the implementation of joint projects for the production of industrial products in order to import substitution. At the expense of this money, industrial cooperation will develop, new highly efficient jobs will be created, improving the competitiveness of our products. "

The head of government also called domestic producers Agricultural machinery to more active cooperation with colleagues from EAEU countries (Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan), as well as use the weakening of the ruble as a competitive advantage in export markets, including in Europe.

• Dmitry Medvedev instructed this week profile departments until February 10, adjust the tariffs in the Plato system.
• The Prime Minister also managed to go to Togliatti this week, where I participated in the AvtoVAZ manufacturing meeting. There he stated that in 2016 the car industry will receive the greatest amount of subsidies from all civil industries: the total support amount will be 50 billion rubles.

In August 2017, a significant event was held in the history of the St. Petersburg Kirov Tractor Factory and the entire domestic engineering - launch in the mass production of the new model of Tractors "Kirovets". Tractor "Kirovets K-424" became the smallest in production program Enterprises. This model is intended for profitable work not so much in large, as in the middle, as well as in small peasant farms. In the best way, according to experts, "Mini-Kirovets" is able to express itself in the fields ranging from 500 to 2000 hectares. It is assumed that "K-424" will become a "pioneer" of the whole series "K-4", which will include compact tractors of the 3rd and 4th trackers.

Experts of the oldest Russian engineering enterprise hope that this tractor, and in the future - and the whole series "K-4" will be in demand by the market. It is indicated that Kirovets K-424 will take a very promising niche in the market of agricultural engineering, which in Soviet times it occupied an incredibly successful and even indispensable Kharkov tractor "T-150".

In a new time, the Kharkov tractor plant was constantly "likharanidilo", as a result of which he, as they say, "rather dead, than alive." And for many many recent years Large and middle farmers are forced to acquire either several low-power tractors immediately, or one, but too powerful and dear tractor for them. There is hope that Kirovets K-424 will have to the yard not only in KFH, but also in large landowners and agroholding. There, TDE has tasks of regularly distilled equipment on remote fields, or fields are mainly small.

According to its design, Kirovets K-424, which received the nickname "Kiryusha", is wheel tractor With the traditional product for the manufacture of the St. Petersburg tractor plant, the articulated frame. Hinged Rama It has long been known for ensuring the best ravine, craving, high passability and maneuverability, even in the most difficult road conditions. The welded frame of the "Mini" Kirovtsian "" K-424 "is made up of two seats: the front and rear, which are connected between them with a hinge device.

"K-424" is significantly more compact by traditional "Kiroves", and also equipped with a less powerful, but more economical diesel engine "YAMZ-53625" with a capacity of 240 horsepower. Paired with this motor works automatic box New generation gears. The tractor has relatively small dimensionswho give him the possibility of free movement on the roads of all levels without additional permissions. If necessary, it is possible to drive the wheels.

This model is also noteworthy and the fact that this novelty is the only tractor of the fourth traction class, which is fully produced in Russia. In nine shops of the St. Petersburg tractor plant, casting from metal, and casting out of plastic, as well as machining, welding, testing of nodes and aggregates ... All technological chain is up to the final assembly of technology. The manufacturer provides a guarantee of 1 year or 2000 motor-watches on Kirovets K-424.

Hydraulics "K-424" - powerful, trailer device The pendulum, the traction-hitch is adjustable in height. Due to the presence of a modern unified coupling device, "Kirovets K-424 is suitable for the following types of current agricultural work:

• Pre-sowing processing and soil preparation;
• Sowing;
• Cultivation;
• Processing of agricultural cells in the aisle;
• Making fertilizers.

The premiere of the Tractor "Kirovets K-424" on the market of domestic agrotechnology took place a couple of years before August 2017, in October 2015. Until its launch into mass production, the new Leningrad tractor passed intensive field tests in the seven agrarian regions of our country. Also, Kirovets K-424 passed the annual cycle of tests on three engineering testing stations. And on MIS, and in farms, the tractor has established itself exclusively on the positive side.

Licinsky ponds for the town of Likino-Dulevo town near Moscow - the memories of the weaving spinning factory. However, there is nothing to spin. The fate threads are dissolved: bankrupt factory. Ponds are the only thing that remains. In the zero two thousandths it was the place of collecting local drug addicts. Today, the ponds are also of particular interest. Now on this territory a kind of "Leviathan" in the Orekhovo-Zuyevsky district: who and who is trying to pick up the land of the former factory and what is the theater community? This is discussed in a special report of Denis Berestov.
