Joint Stock Company “Aktubroentgen”
One of the oldest X-ray equipment producing enterprise is celebrating
its seventh decade in radiology. The company has made a long way from a
small factory to a modern, successful company, one of the largest
manufacturers of radiological equipment.
It is mature age to look back and remember biography of the plant,
which began during World War II. In late 1941, "Moscow State union ray
factory" was evacuated to Aktobe, Kazakhstan. In a short time, as
determined by specific requirements of war, an effective manufacturing
base was prepared, and in May 1942 the company started the production
of defense products.
During the Great Patriotic War the plant was producing medical X-ray
machines in three types: camping, portable and stationary diagnostic
type. All three types of units surrendered to the Chief Medical
Administration of the Red Army to serve the front and rear hospitals.
In addition, the plant produced subversive machines of type PM-1, PM-2
for the Red Army Corps of Engineers (sapper units and guerrilla
groups).
In 1998, the company has undergone restructuring and now JSC
"Aktubroentgen" is a private enterprise. Management of the enterprise
in terms of economic conflicts managed to keep the core production and
design capabilities, production facilities, and production facilities.
Thus, a new phase of the modern enterprise began.
After a short phase of economic stabilization the management embarked
on a phase of active sustainable development and, as a result by the
end of 2007, together with JSC "Development Bank of Kazakhstan" almost
completed the commissioning of new production facilities, equipped with
the latest production equipment in several European countries, Canada
and Japan. Moreover, it should be noted that the commissioning
performed without interrupting the production cycle.
