MSP Bank has lent RUB 30 million to Aviatech, a company from the Republic of Bashkortostan, under a concessional lending programme for machine-tool and robotics makers run by the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the SME Corporation, part of VEB.RF. The money will go towards a new robotic cell due to start work in early 2027.

The cell is built around an industrial robot arm and automates stacking products on pallets: empty pallets are fed into the loading area and full ones moved on to packing. By the end of 2027 Aviatech plans to automate a second line for its customer. The company says it has completed more than 250 projects for industries including aerospace, oil services, metals, food and pharmaceuticals.

Loans under the programme range from RUB 30 million to RUB 200 million, at 5% a year in the first year.
