In the 1960s, they produced a 3,000 ton press, a 6,000 ton press and other ordered equipment.

They manufactured 20-m lathe, 18-m turning lathe, 400-mm planer and 5,000-m drilling machine in the 1970s.

They made a 3,000 kW high-pressure gas compressor, 70-m double-housing planer, 10,000 ton press and other equipment in the 1980s and the 1990s.

Last year, streamlined iron foundry and compressor workshop started operation in the complex.
