History
The construction of the Ural Heavy Machinery Plant began in 1926, and in 1928 a special "
During
After World War II, the state made large investments in the reconstruction and expansion of the Uralmash plant. This modernisation favoured both increased output and the production of new machines and equipment—shovels, drilling rigs, crushers and mills.[6][12]
In the 1950s, the state began efforts to equip the aviation and rocket industries with heavy hydraulic presses. Uralmash, in response to this new demand, created a range of this type of equipment.[13]
In 1949 the plant produced the first dragline excavator.[13] In 1960s the plant designed and manufactured draglines with booms 90–100 m long. Now[when?] more than 200 walking draglines are in operation at mines in Siberia and the Far East. One third of the total coal amount produced by the open casting is[when?] mined with the help of draglines.[citation needed]
The drilling rigs manufactured by Uralmash were of prime importance in the development of oil and gas regions of the
In 1971, Uralmash became the head enterprise of an industrial association. The association also embraced Heavy Machine Research Institute, Upper Pyshminsk Plant of Metal Constructions and Drilling Structures, Nevyansk Casting and Forging Plant, Bulanash Assembly Plant, Sverdlovsk Plant of Drilling and Metallurgical Equipment, and Sverdlovsk Mine Equipment Factory.[6]
For at least part of the late 1980s and early 1990s, the plant was controlled, at least in part, by the Uralmash gang, a racketeering organization.[16]
In accordance with Russian Federation law, Uralmash was transformed in December 1992 into an
In 2005, Gazprom purchased a controlling stake in OMZ and Uralmash.[20]

The first director of Uralmash was A. P. Bannikov. Oleg Danchenk served as General Director starting in 2009.[22] Danchenko and First Deputy and Director-General of Uralmash-Engineering Boris Belman resigned their positions at the company in March 2016.[23] The current General Director of Uralmash is Sokolov Sergey Olegovich.[24]
In 2016, Uralmash and Indian steel manufacturer SRB International announced that they were embarking on a joint venture to produce heavy equipment for the Indian steel and mining sector.[25]
