May 30, 2013. Ural Diesel-Motor Plant (a member of Sinara Transport Machines) started the erection supervision work at the testing stand for the single-cylinder unit of a diesel engine. All the jobs are done within the framework of Dieselstroy, a state-funded special purpose program, the enterprise’s press service reports.

The plant already has all the basic equipment for the stand: a system for treatment and delivery of coolants, diesel fuel, and oil and a frequency converter, which was the most labor-intensive piece of machinery to install. The plant workers and experts from the German company FEW embarked on the next stage of the project that consists in the installation of measuring equipment and subframe that will have the asynchronous tensile strength tester and the single-cylinder unit of a diesel engine attached to it.

During the commissioning of the stand, the equipment will be installed, and the software will be checked for performance, and some tests will be carried out as well. The pilot launch of the single-cylinder unit is scheduled for July 2013, which means the process of finishing all the jobs on the creation of a new generation diesel engine can begin, the message states.
