View to the past: Steps to improvement

Since 1947 the history of one of the best companies – Zaporozhye transformer factory (ZTR) – manufacturer of the transformer and the reactor equipment has been started. Within these years, ZTR strength and authority of the industry leader have been maintained and increased.

Today the complex reformation of all fields of activities is taking place at ZTR to correspond to the growing needs of the market. Large-scale activity is performed at the factory as referred to increase of own production capacities, improvement of operating efficiency. At ZTR there was prepared a series of projects purposed to achieve the production level not less than 60 GVA. Owing to the activities related to production optimization and application of up-to-date approach as related to management, during the last few years the production cycle has been shortened upon average a half as much again, and production efficiency has been increased.

Besides manufacturing of the transformer equipment, ZTR is mastering the innovation types of products – it supplies successfully the controlled shunt reactors intended for reactive power compensation on AC networks.
