Russian term or phrase: производство было реорганизовано...
В 1968 году было создано отдельное производство коробок передач, которое в марте 1982 года было реорганизовано в «Завод коробок передач»

вроде, всё понятно, но как пытаюсь перевести, так теряю напрочь смысл - мне непонятно, из чего оно было реорганизовано...

the factory was spun off as a separate company
Explanation:
Previously it was a subdivision of a company.

"spun off" might be a bit too business-speak, depending on the audience, so you could say "reorganized into"

Sprint, for example, spun off its lucrative wireless unit as Sprint PCS, and AT&T recently created a tracking stock for its wireless services.
