SAMSUNG LCD and plasma-panel televisions factory opened in Kaluga in September, 2008. The Russian SAMSUNG factory produces nearly all the range of TV sets and monitors models.
In Russia SAMSUNG company is primarily known as electronics and household appliances manufacturer. Despite the fact that more than 70% of the concern sales is related to electronic industry, SAMSUNG has become prominent nearly in all spheres of business. SAMSUNG cars congest roads in Korea, there are SAMSUNG bank and insurance companies, amusement park SAMSUNG, hotels, advertising and construction SAMSUNG companies…
But let us go back to the TV sets. The TV sets made anywhere but in Russia are junk. All TV sets SAMSUNG are now produced in Russia.
Let’s begin with TV cabinets.
These are the sacks with components for panels manufacture that came from Korea.
Here all this stuff is mixed up, melted and further hot plastic is transferred to the workshop through the piping for the TV sets details molding.
Moulds for TV cabinets making.
For the mould mounting frame-cranes are used. Weight of one mould may reach some tons.
And these are the machines where the moulds are mounted in. Hot plastic comes here pressurized and under pressure it is pumped into the mould to have a ready detail.
Usually the TV cabinet consists of a rear cover and a front frame.
Making one detail takes about 2 minutes.
All production is automated, workers only watch over the equipment.
Sometimes something needs to be tightened.
Open mould.
The detail is ready.
A robot puts it on the conveyor and it goes to the next shop.
Plastic remains, they will be processed and grinded to be used for internal components.
A big hot piece of plastic.
Here plastic panels of the TV sets and monitors are completed with necessary fittings, logos are stamped etc.
This pink cushion stamps SAMSUNG logo on the featureless plastic.
Here the panels are checked for the presence of defects, if any are found the panel is rejected.
Not to scratch the face panel it is faced with protective film.
Hammer is a necessary thing at any Russian factory!
Then the panels are completed with necessary details.
Finally a ready panel is sent to the warehouse.
All components are stored in special containers.
Each container has wheels for easy transportation.
The robot is carrying matrixes for manufacture. It recognizes the way thanks color stripes on the floor. When the robot moves idiotic music plays.
In this shop microcircuits are produced. All the process is automated.
Quality inspection table.
Workers aren’t bored, by the way, nearly all the workers are young people.
All in all it’s very cool here… ideal cleanness, agreeable people, everything is automated and it’s hard to believe that all that is in the Kaluga region and not Korea. But in order not to lose contact with reality, at the factory there has been made a canteen in the manner of a cheap suburban eatery. The brightest sample of Russian vicious taste.
The bonus is a secret map. Competitors’ factories are marked with a red pin.
Coolness, but this is Korean ingenuity, with cheap Russian labour, and American machines. Where’s the Russian engineering here???
There’s no such thing as american machines, except for killing people.
Industrial manufacturing either comes from Europe (Germany, Switzerland) or from Asia.
The US ceased to be competitive in machine engineering decades ago.
You are very correct! You should see our latest killing machines – very innovative. But if I told you about them I’d have to kill you and there would be no fun in that. We prefer to let our machines speak for themselves. Have a nice day!
War is never perfect JCR!The machines in your army also kill people,or does your army even have any machines?
Tell him Erika!
…i love samsung
OMG ich hab gerade gesehen wie kleine ami kinder in einer mülltone leben und sich von fekalien ernähren
“fäkalien” is written with an “ä” not an “e”.

Okay well, the Sun is rising on the East Coast and it’s gorgeous. Sorry couldn’t think of anything else to say. ehmm, thanks for post.
Is it still snowing a lot where you live Musa?
It did snow several days ago. It melted rather quickly.
How’s it going SSSR?
I see someone has been busy bashing United States of America and Americans or USians again!
Looks cool! I’d like to work there, I wonder what the wages are.
Really Finland? Why?
Faaaak!
Big machines are so yesteryear as us Americans are now into nano technology and supercomputing .
I guess you talk ’bout your country.
“But let us go back to the TV sets. The TV sets made anywhere but in Russia are junk…”
Oh really? Just post photos and puhleeease do not editorialize. Epic FAIL!
Very cool pictures! I didn’t even know Samsung produced outside of China.
so where’s the sickle?
wow…thanks for such a nice information!
very,very nice find!
It looks like any other Samsung Factory, I work in Samsung Tijuana Mexico and it looks the same, if you wonder why they are here, well is because the handwork is cheap, by the way is not cool to work with this people, they are almost eslavers
