«Катюша» переходит на платы из российского текстолита

Russian printer, MFP and software manufacturer Katyusha has launched mass production of Russia's first radio-electronic module for printers based on domestic textolite – the SK424 contactless card reader.

The reader works in conjunction with the domestic Smart Print software, providing user authentication on printers and data protection. At the customer's request, it can be installed both during production and in the existing fleet of equipment.

In September, a corresponding entry was received in the Register of Russian Industrial Products. In addition to textolite, the module uses other domestic components, including an antenna. Maxim Vinogradov, CEO of Katyusha, said:

The first radio-electronic module from Katyusha based on domestic textolite – a new contactless card reader – has been included in the RRIPP, and this is just the beginning. By 2027, we plan to transfer the electronic modules in our devices to Russian textolite and increase the share of Russian EEE. In absolute terms, the use of this material will be about 1 million square decimeters, or 400 thousand boards per year.

As a reminder, Katyusha began its operations in 2019. In 2022, the Smart Print print management system software was included in the corresponding register of the Ministry of Digital Development of Russia, and then, in 2024, the company became the first Russian manufacturer whose system (main) boards were included in the Register of Russian Industrial Products. In the same year, the first printing devices also appeared in the RRIPP.
