Almaty Electrotrans-Service

The plant was engaged in the overhaul and planned repair of trams and trolley buses in Kazakhstan. The design capacity of the plant is 100 units per year, but the plant repaired about 200 trams and trolleybuses per year. Elektromash made major and scheduled repairs of trams. The plant was subordinate to the republic .

The plant carried out a major overhaul of the cars - during the repair, the car was almost completely updated. After the repair, the tram depot received almost a new car that could work on the lines for a long time. The life of the trams in the city was a year or two less than the warranty due to difficult terrain, the structure of the track, etc. ^[1] .

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the plant rose. In the period 1996-1998. the plant collected about 15-20 trolley buses ZiU-682G00-EM. The position of the plant was critical, in 2000 the plant was bought by the city.

The plant was bought by means of Almaty Electrotrans and immediately began to update the technical base. Soon there was a question about the creation of a trolley bus at the plant itself. Soon the drawings were created and in 2001 the first vehicle KAZ 398 was assembled. They called it "Kazakhstan".

The trolley bus was very good. In 2002, the Electromash plant with the new name Electrotrans-Service started mass production of machines. On September 2003, the plant produced about 60 cars, they are operated in Astana and Almaty ^[1] .

In 2008, the production of Kazakhstan trolleybuses ceased (164 cars were assembled altogether), after which the factory assembled a “ screwdriver assembly ” of 20 low-floor trolleybuses NEOPLAN-KAZAKHSTAN YOUNG MAN GNP 6120 GDZ. Then the plant was closed, and in 2010 its territory was transferred to the construction of a shopping center.

In the summer of 2004, the Electrotrans-Service plant produced several trolleybus developments. The cars that received the numbers 1045, 1029, 1050 had an already modernized cabin with headlights from the a / m Gazelle . 1052 with a completely different cabin, 1053 with electrical equipment on the roof.

The plans included further development of the trolleybus design, improvement of the cabin and the car, the plant had the technical capacity to produce environmentally friendly buses that meet the Euro-3 standard ^[1] .

In 2005, after the closure of the Skoda-Ostrov plant, the Electrotrans-Service plant acquired the Skoda slipway and Skoda-21 from him. On its base 2 low-floor trolley buses were produced. However, the production of a low-floor trolley bus was expensive, and in 2006 the production of the Alaman trolley bus began. Instead of expensive portal bridges, ordinary bridges began to be installed, the trolleybus became semi-low-floor. Instead of branded headlights, headlights were installed from a VAZ-2107 car, the interior was similar to that of the Kazakhstan trolleybus, electric fanning was put off a decommissioned ZiU-9 . However, by 2007, all decommissioned ZiU were over, and then began to buy parts from the plant TrolZa - allegedly for CWR . However, it lasted a little over a year - eventually the plant ceased to exist
