F'R :P.ESS IN SOVIET MACHINE TOOL BUILDING
DJ! II G STALIN FIVE.,YEAR PLANS
GROWTH TN SOVIET MACIIINE BUILDING Moscow, Nauka 1 Zhizn', Nov 52
The vigorous growth of Soviet. machine building began during the years of
the Stalin Five--Year Plans. The volume of machine building and metalworking
industries increased nine times by the end of the first Five-Year Plan as com-?
hared with 1913; and 30 times by the end of the second Five-Year Plan. In 1940,
the cost of production In mochine building and metalworking was 50 times as great
as in 1913; in 1950, the level, of machine building was more than 2.3 times as
great as the 191+0 level; and in 1952, the output of machines and equipment will
be more than three times as great as in 19+0. Tu e new Five-Year Ple.n specifies
that the output of machine building and metalworking products must be approximately
doubled as compared with 1950. Therefore, in 1955, 230 timec as many machines,
machine tools, and other equipment will be produced as in 1913.
.In 191.3, the proportion of manhiue building to the, gross production in the
entire national economy was scarcely ii percent'' however, in 1938 it was 26.5
percent. The park of machine tools increased 2.2 times during the postwar period.

construction of the Kha.r.'kov Machine Tool Plant !meni Mol.otov was completed'y and

In 1950, .the number of typo-sizes of machine tools produced reached 670 as
compared with approximately 500 type-sizes at the beginning of World War II.
In the years of the postwar Five-Year Plan, press and forging equipment plants
of the Ministry of Machine Tool Building perfected 83 type-sizes of new-design
press and forging machines.
Tool production was also extensively developed. during the postwar period,
Whereas before i9aO, as well as during the postwar period up to 1949, the basic
herd.alloy tools ,roduced were mainly different types of end mills, from the be-
ginning or 1949. plants of the tool industry perfected. more than 50 type-design.-
tions and more than 1,500 type-sizes of hard-alloy tools, including up to 20 type-
designations and 700 type-sizes of normal tools for machining holes. In addition,
up tc 5G0 type-sizes of different purpose special hard-alloy tools for machining
holes were perfected to fill industrial ciders.
Plants of the tool industry have consistently increased the production of
hard-alloy tools, By 1951, the output t-f hard-alley tool= had increased six times
as compared v~.,h 1948; and the proportion of thosc- tools to the total output of
a.11 n itt_nr, tcola reached 17,1> percent.
OIYTPITP OF HEAVY MACHINE TOOLS INCREASED 8.1 TIMES IN POSTWAR PERIOD ?-- Moscow,
Pravda, 13 Oct 52
In the postwar period Soviet machine building plants have developed and have
mastered the production of from 500 to 550 types of new high-duty machines per year.
Thies has made it possible to revise completely the products list of equipment being
prc'd.uced.and to curtail the manufacture of ob..iolete and low-duty machines.
Mar.hire tool building plants have mastered the production of more than 340 new
typ of gentr.nl--purpose metal-cutting machine tools and more than 1,000 types of
5,n?:.ial ?.ad. unit-type machine tools. The output. of large, heavy-duty machint tools

r,rn?da tv~.? ~.
Tarentchev, Deputy Minister of Machine Tool Bui1.dingj ha stated that machine
tool building plants in Moscow and Moskovskaya Oblast produce one third of the total
volume of USSR machine tool building products.
The work of Moe. -w scientiet_, rtseaich workers, and debigners is being enriched
11oceasing1y by inventions of people compietr.'y unknown to science, innovators of
production. There are thousands of them an. Moscow.
Thin cooperation between workers of science and production is assuring Moscow
machine tool builders with continuous succF-es in solving new technical. problems,
Duzing the fourth Five-Year Plan, Moscow c hine tool builders turned out 2,099
unit-type inachine tools and 23 automatic. trnnef r r,.achine lines. They equipped
the first section of the automatic piston p1L11t, and d-:si,ned and mastered the pre-
d.uction of lc`6 types of machine tools for differen?; purposes.

MOSCOW PLANT PRODUCES MORE THAN 60 TYPES -- Moscow, V Pomoshch' Profsoyuznomu
Aktivu, 22 Nov 52
The Moscow Grinding Machine Plant is now producing more than 60 types of
machine tools.
HEAVY MACHINE TOOL PLANT TO TRIPLE OUTPUT -_ Moscow, Moskovskiy Komsomolets,
29 Nov 52
The new Five-year Plan specifies that the production of machine building
and met alworking products must u-_ approximately doubled; the production of large
metal-cutting machine tools must be increased 2.6 times, and of heavy press and
forging machines, eight times. According to Ivan Matveyevich Shakhray, chief en-
gineer at the Kolomna Heavy Machine Tool Building Plant, this plant must nearly
triple its output of large gear nobbing machines and vertical boring and turning
mills to meet its share of this assignment.
The Kolomna Plant, which grew out of an old enterprise,. has been in exis-
tence only 5 years. Soon after its establishment, construction was begun on ten
new buildings for shops. These included buildings for unique machine tools, heavy
castings, large presses, etc. The fixed assets at the plant have increased more
than four times during these years.
In a short time, the plant increased its production four times while the
number of persons employed in production increased only 38 p_rcent.
