press, reportedly both economical and efficient, was constructed by the 
Institute, and in the same year, a new Institute mill for rolling shaped 
tubes became operational at the Khar'’kov Bicycle Plant. The Institute 
completed and began operation of the first Soviet, completely automated 
unit for continuous production of aluminum rod from liquid metal in 1961. 
At the same time, a process and equipment for rolling extremely thin shapes 
were developed. The Institute maintains a Moscow Experimental Plant. 
Research has also been done on metal deformation resulting from ultra-high 
pressures. A Trudy appears each month.
