About us
Omsk Scientific-Research Institute of Instrument Engineering (JSC ONIIP) is founded in 1958 (the Decree of the Supreme body presidium, the Decision of the USSR Ministerial council from 9/26/1958, the Order of the State Committee of the USSR from 9/30/1958) on the basis of Omsk special design office named after Kozitsky, evacuated out of Leningrad on the onset of WWII. The opening of the separate settlement account which had occurred on December, 17th, 1958 is considered to be a date of the enterprise history.
The pioneers of the enterprise development are remarkable experts of Kozitsky plant: chief engineer B.F.Karro-Est - subsequently the first director of institute, the chief of special design bureau M.A.Tchekalin - the initiator of creation of institute, the main technologist of special design bureau A.G. Vedenev, the chief designer of special design bureau A.A. Borovik, the chief of radio laboratory I.A. Naroditsky the chief of department of quartz technics F.M.Ilyin who is one of founders of piezoquarz technology in the USSR.
Institute creation had been dictated by necessity of expansion and deepening of researches in the field of the main radio-receiving equipment. The institute basic staff was made by special design bureau workers (82 people) and its structure was defined by radio laboratory, design group, technological group, group of quartz resonators and a model workshop. Building of the first institute building began in 1959. In the same year its personnel started to be replenished with young experts - graduates of widely known high schools: Tomsk University, Tomsk Polytechnical Institute, Novosibirsk Electrotechnical Institute of Communication, Taganrog Radio Engineering Institute etc.
On 6th May, 1960 by the order Boris Fedorovich Karro-Est had been appointed as the director of scientific research institute and he also simultaneously as a chief engineer.
In the summer of 1961 the institute had entirely moved in a new building.
Having experience of such products development as "Amur", "Amur-DV", "Molybdenum", "Tselina", "Nedra", staff started creation of new, more difficult equipment.
In 1962 there were further personnel changes: the participant of the WW II Nikolay Aleksandrovich Sartasov have been appointed as the chief engineer, Alexander Antonovich Borovik, and the main technologist - Anatoly Grigorevich Vedenev became the chief designers.
By scientists and experts of institute the hundreds articles are written, the set of inventions is created by N.A.Sartasov, V.M.Edvabniy and V.V.Gribin in publishing house «Communication» in 1971 let out the monography «Short-wave radio-receiving equipment». In the institute the annual scientific and technical collection «Radio communication technology» is published, its leading experts present their reports at the international scientific and technical conferences in Russia and abroad. On the world salon of inventions "Bruxelles-Eureka" in 1996, 2001 and 2002 and at the international fair of inventions in South Korea "Seoul-2002" Public Society "ONIIP" expositions had been awarded with 5 gold, 2 silver and 1 bronze medals. The basic contribution to creation of these inventions «The Deserved Machine Engineer of the Russian Federation», «The Deserved Inventor of the Russian Federation" was brought by D.S.Rjabokon.
For many long years of successful creative activity the institute in 1977 was awarded with the Order the Labour Red Banner, high state awards have been handed over 306 employees of institute, and 7 experts became winners of the USSR award such as Naroditsky Ilya Aronovich, Karro-Est Boris Fedorovich, Leontev Vladimir Vasilevich, Bezborodov Anatoly Antonovich, Dudarev Vladimir Andreevich, Markovsky Boris Ivanovich, Timkov Vladimir Andreevich.
