One of the unmissable events on the global mining circuit is Perumin/Extemin, a congress and fair that takes place every two years in the Peruvian city of Arequipa, where the leading mining gurus and equipment manufacturers meet for five days to exchange information and ideas.

Spanish manufacturer Solintal, a specialist in the manufacture of buckets for the earthmoving and mining sector, continues to deliver buckets to the Japanese company Komatsu, one of the large international machinery manufacturers it makes products for.

The 2018-2019 season got off to an excellent start for Atlético Algete EMF Football Club. As well as winning accolades and success on the pitch, its members have welcomed the news that Solintal, one of Algete’s largest and leading firms, has decided to sponsor the club. Every season the club runs a host of courses and organises innovative projects aimed at ensuring that its footballers receive the all-round training they need.

Solintal, the company known around the world for designing and manufacturing buckets and ladles for the mining sector, recently supplied another 28 m 3 stoping and loading tool for a Komatsu PC 5500 mining shovel owned by the Spanish earthmoving company Epsa Internacional.

Dust is generated at aggregates exploitations (at gravel pits as well as quarries) when carrying out tasks such as blasting, loading, crushing, classifying, etc. In other words, throughout the entire process of extracting and treating the rock until the aggregate is dispatched at its final grain size, dust is released to the atmosphere.

In addition to the multiple football and rhythmic gymnastics teams that the company sponsors, Solintal has had a Solintal Sailing Team for several months. The team competes in races and has consistently achieved excellent results in the championships it has competed in.

Even though Solintal did not have a stand at the recent Bauma fair, its products could be seen at the stands of the large earthmoving brands that it works with. Large buckets and a dumper truck bed were just some of the Spanish-made mining equipment on display at the world’s largest machinery fair.

On this occasion, the bucket that has been recently delivered by company Solintal is for a Komatsu PC5500 mining excavator; a powerful unit with two engines providing 940 kW each, a total weight between 533 and 552 tons depending on the options and a specific design for loading mining dumpers with a carrying capacity between 136 and 218 tons.

Solintal, the manufacturer of mining buckets and tools and components for the construction, energy, engineering and industry sectors, was present at the 5 th National Aggregates Congress, organised by the FDA (Aggregates Federation), in Santiago de Compostela, from the 24 th to the 26 th of October in the Congresses and Exhibitions Centre of Galicia.

Solintal, the great specialist manufacturer of buckets, loaders and tools for the public works, quarry and mining sector; recycling equipment and tools; and spare parts and piping for the engineering, industry and energy sectors, will have a stand at the International Recovery and Recycling Trade Fair (SSR) in Madrid, from 13 to 15 June at Ifema’s fairs venue.
