ArmInfo.The Engineering Association of Armenia will receive a grant of AMD 90 million from the state for the development, design and construction of mechanical ventilation devices. The decision was made at a meeting of the RA Government on April 16.
As Minister of High-Tech Industry Hakob Arshakyan, emphasized in his speech, the Ministry had previously announced a competition for applications for the design, modeling, partial and complete production of mechanical ventilation, which received over 300 applications. Based on the results of the tender, the best ideas were selected, on the basis of which the Engineering Association, together with partners, will develop, design, and conduct a laboratory study of the new apparatus. The Minister noted that within 4-5 months it will be possible to organize the assembly of 40-50 devices per month. Currently, the world is experiencing a shortage of 800 thousand mechanical ventilation devices, and this deficit will continue to increase. For this reason, the organization of its own production can play a role in overcoming the effects of coronavirus.
