Production and perspective developments
Company's products are installed in virtually all Russian–made aircraft such as Tu-204/214, Il-114, An-148, Tu-154, Il-96, Yak-42 and transport aircraft as Il-76, An-124, Be-200, Tu-204S and helicopters Mi-8/17, Ka-32, Mi-26, Ka-226, Ansat, Mi-38, Ka-62. The Holding's systems and assemblies play an important role for military aviation. Many enterprises of the Holding are being the developers of the unique products that have no analogues both in Russia and in the world.
For instance, Respirator Research and Development Enterprise is the developer of the Russia's first fully digitally controlled oxygen system for passenger planes. On the exhibition "MAKS 2015" Technodinamika shows electric wheel for aircraft. Wheel saves fuel, time for taxiing and reduces noise at the airport. Electric wheel is used to move the aircraft on the ground. Through the use of an electric wheel, there is no need to include in the taxiing jet engines, which means you can save about 200 liters of fuel, reduce noise and emissions into the atmosphere.[17]
Assembly Production Organization of Ufa (UAPO) developed an innovative system of DC power supply system SPTSu-7, 5. The new power supply system with inverters with double energy conversion, which has twice as much power as former-generation system that were based on transformer converters. New system guarantees high resistance and stability of output voltage. Eventually, the system's modification is planned for installation in long-range aircraft MS-21 and later in all types of national airplanes and helicopters.[18]
The Scientific Research Institute of Parachute Construction has built the D-10P system for extreme meteorological conditions, which is essentially an upgraded version of the serially produced D10 parachute system for airborne forces. It utilizes forced parachute deployment, which means that parachute opens automatically after a jump. The new system makes it possible to jump from as low as 50m, not 200m like before.
In July 2016 Tecnodinamika unveiled a new kind of parachute, especially designed for space landings. It was presented at the Innoprom International Industrial Trade Fair in Ekaterinburg [19]
Zvezda Research and Development Enterprise has built the world's first helicopter emergency evacuation system, which is installed in Ka-52 “Alligator” and guarantees the rescue of the staff at all flying modes. The same enterprise has developed the Orlan-MKS next-generation space suit for space-walks. The suit is computerized, with a new control panel display and an improved date processing system.[20]
At MAKS 2013 Airshow enterprise demonstrated mail landing gear for perspective Ka-62 helicopter the uniqueness of its construction is combination of shock absorption and retractor in one assembly. Thus combined shock absorption retractor is small-sized and allows reducing of technical costs.
In 2013, the Technodinamika developed a series of full-scale and electronic mockups of aircraft systems for civil airplanes and helicopters which will enter mass production in Russia till 2025. Developments were made for MS-21, SSJ-100 airplanes and civil helicopters.
As the result were signed two contracts with the Ministry of Industry and Trade of creating mass production of eight aviation systems to replace foreign prototypes in terms of state program “The development of aircraft industry during 2013–2025 years” The total amount of investment from the state budget and personal Holding's facilities will be more than 1,4 billion roubles.
In addition, in terms of import substitution industrialization program FTP ‘Development of Civil Aircraft Equipment”, the Holding plans to create anti-abnormal fuel system and basic block of electrical generating system –DC generator.
In January 2014, Technodinamika proceeded to develop fuel system for promising Russian helicopters that is able to prevent fire burnt of aircraft. Fire safety is assured by keeping pressure-sealing of fuel system during crash landing and by using module for fuel tanks inflation with inerting agent.[21]
At Farnborough-2014 one of the Holding's innovations was an innovative model APU-120 with the direct acting for MS-21 airplanes and Il-96MD-90A. APU is developing in accordance with “more electric aircraft” concept. APU-120 is more powerful than all Russian equivalents and the no gearbox solution decreases the number of parts in the APU-120 by 30% which in turn lowers the cost.
By 2015, Technodinamika will create the first Russian prototype of an innovative electric landing gear wheel drive for SSJ-100 jet and will hold its bench running. The role of the projects integrator will be given to one of the Holding's enterprises Aviaagregat,- one of the main Russian developers and supplies of landing gear for civil, transport and military aircraft. For this project, the Samara-based Aviaagregat set up an extensive network of cooperation with industry leaders.[22]
In November 2015 Russian Technodinamika has carried out initial tests of the fire-protection system for the Irkut MC-21. Technodinamika says the test of the equipment, developed in co-operation with Curtiss-Wright Controls, has “fully confirmed” its declared capabilities.[23]
In March 2016 Technodinamika claims that its development for the Aviadvigatel PD-14 engine is the first of its kind in the country, and will replace the usual hydraulically-driven systems.[24]
Technodinamika (Russia)- is one of the key players operating in the commercial aircraft oxygen systems market [25]
