History
The plant was originally built in 1941 in Skopin, Ryazan Oblast, and initially was manufacturing coal mining equipment. In 1941, during the German invasion, the factory was evacuated to Ural and opened its doors in Artyomovsky. Although three weeks after evacuation the plant started to produce ammunition for the Red Army, even during the war it was involved in non-military production, for instance, drilling rigs equipment. The plant won a number of state awards for best products.
After the war the Soviet government decided that the factory should remain in Artyomovsky. It was further expanded to produce
In the 2000s, Ventprom adopted a number of German engineering designs and produced a new line of standard size fans designed for the extraction of methane-air mixture from the mine workings. Implementing cutting plasma systems and Japanese welding robots, Ventprom is currently one of the most up-to-date factories in Russia.[3]
