Bythe beginning of the 90-s of the last century the machine-tool and tool industry was one of the leading branches of the USSR economy and the second in rating of the countries that produce machine-tools and tools. These years were marked with a particular high growth of production of advanced high-performance machine-tools and CNC press-forging equipment. By 1990 the metal-working equipment production volume exceeded 80,000 pieces including 22,000 machine-tools and CNC presses, and 5,000 machining centres and flexible industrial processing lines. It necessitated, in its turn, to develop cooperation and attract a huge number of purchased parts: CNC, transducers, electrical equipment, hydraulic equipment, etc.
It is apparent that it was unrealistic to achieve all that without coordination and scientific support of the industry enterprises. Therefore, in the very beginning of the so-called “Perestroika” and subsequent close up of the industry ministry the managers of enterprises and organizations initiated establishment of a state-owned joint stock company “Stankoinstrument” as a system integrator though, later, it was liquidated as a result of the USSR disintegration.
In 1992 in the Russian Federation a public joint stock company (PJSC) “Kompaniya “Rosstankoinstrument” was registered. However, the developing economic processes in the country, namely, converting enterprises into joint stock companies in the absence of the established legal framework did not allow to the develop the PJSC “Kompaniya “Rosstankoinstrument”.
On March 5, 1999 Association “Stankoinstrument” was established by the founders: PJSC “Kompaniya “Rosstankoinstrument”, PJSC “Krasniy Proletariy” and PJSC “VNIIINSTRUMENT”. On the same date the founders meeting approved of the Articles of Association. Since that time the 5 March is traditionally considered to be the birthday of the Association.
The fathers of our Association were: N.A. Panichev (President, PJSC “Kompaniya “Rosstankoinstrument”, Minister of Machine-tool and Tool Industry of the USSR in 1986-1991), V.N. Efimov (Manager of the New Technologies, External Relations and Exhibition Activity Department, PJSC “Kompaniya “Rosstankoinstrument”), V.M. Lakhtyuhov and A.A. Naumov (Deputy Managers of the New Technologies, External Relations and Exhibition Activity Department, PJSC “Kompaniya “Rosstankoinstrument”).
V.N. Efimov became the first Director General of the Association, then he was succeeded by S.V. Vasilyev. In 2002 N.A. Panichev was elected President of the Association and in 2004 G.V. Samodurov superseded him as the President and remains in this position until present time.
In 2002 the Board of Directors was set up and commenced to consider the most acute problems of the industry and issue recommendations how to solve them. Since 2002 the Board of Directors was presided by V.P. Isanin who devolved his authority to N.A. Panichev in 2004. In 2012 G.V. Borovskyi was elected Chairman of the Board and N.P. Panichev was appointed the Honorary Chairman of the Board.
The first members of the Association were such enterprises as “Tiazhpresmash”, “Tiazhmekhpress”, “Siblitmash”, “SASTA”, “Donpressmash”, “Ivanovsky ZTS”, “SAVMA”, “MIZ”, “Stankozavod Ordzhonikidze” and others – altogether about 20 enterprises.
