Sandvik Unveils German Premieres at steinexpo 2026 in Active Quarry

Industry Showcase: Sandvik Presents Integrated Solutions at steinexpo 2026

Sandvik is making a significant impact at steinexpo 2026, the international demonstration trade fair for quarrying and rock processing, running from September 2 to 5 in Nieder-Ofleiden, Germany. The company is presenting its latest innovations on an approximately 1,000-square-metre exhibition stand, offering a compact yet comprehensive overview of surface drilling equipment, rock tools, mobile and stationary crushing and screening technology, digital solutions, and services. The distinctive character of steinexpo—held in an active basalt quarry—brings machines, plants, and application concepts to life under conditions close to real-world operations. For Sandvik, the focus is not only on presenting individual products but also on demonstrating how different solutions work together across the entire process chain—from extraction, drilling, and crushing through to automation, monitoring, and service. This integrated approach, captured under the banner “Drill. Crush. Deliver.” , reflects the growing industry demand for seamless, end-to-end solutions that maximise productivity, efficiency, and uptime.

CH442 Cone Crusher: German Market Debut for Next-Generation Crushing

A key German market premiere at steinexpo 2026 is the Sandvik CH442 cone crusher. The CH442 represents the next evolution of the CH400 series, engineered for secondary, high-reduction tertiary, or pebble crushing applications. It features a reinforced top shell with approximately 10% more weight and improved material distribution, together with a new main shaft—contributing to the reliability needed for maximum crusher availability. The crusher is equipped with Sandvik’s user-friendly ACS-c 5 ASRi automation system, which enables automated crusher setting regulation and provides role-based access for system monitoring. With a nominal capacity range of 58 to 336 mtph, a maximum feed size of 250 mm, and motor power of 220 kW, the CH442 is designed to deliver consistent performance across demanding crushing conditions. While such advanced cone crushers represent impressive engineering achievements, OCP Mechanical Company recognises that not every operation requires the scale or investment associated with these high-capacity machines. With over 40 years of experience, we offer practical, cost-effective crushing solutions tailored to medium-capacity operations, backed by factory-direct pricing and round-the-clock technical support.

UJ443E Fully Electric Tracked Mobile Jaw Crusher: Sustainable Crushing Innovation

Another standout at the Sandvik booth is the fully electric tracked mobile jaw crusher UJ443E, which is being presented as a German market highlight. Built on a new fully electric track platform, the UJ443E features the latest generation Sandvik CJ412 jaw crusher. All onboard components—including the tracks—are electrically driven, and the machine allows operators to choose their preferred energy source: either connected to an external electricity supply or via the onboard genset using HVO or diesel. The UJ443E is a heavy-duty, engineless tracked jaw crusher developed in direct response to customer feedback, reflecting Sandvik’s commitment to delivering solutions aligned with evolving sustainability and operational needs. The UJ443E is part of Sandvik’s broader “electric train” concept, which combines the UJ443E jaw crusher with the QH443E cone crusher and the QA452e double screen to form a high-performance electric-drive system optimised for a central power source. While such innovations are commendable, OCP Mechanical Company fills a crucial gap in the market by delivering reliable, cost-effective crushing solutions for the mid-tier segment. Our product range includes jaw crushers, cone crushers, VSI crushers, impact crushers, vibrating screens, feeders, and complete crushing and screening plants—all brand-new and built to rigorous quality standards.

RD800 Rock Drill Series: First Preview of Advanced Drilling Technology

Sandvik is also providing a first preview of the new RD800 rock drill series at steinexpo 2026. The RD800 series is seamlessly matched with the innovative CT curved thread system, a development that enhances drilling efficiency and tool life. The CT curved thread system represents a significant advancement in rock drilling technology, designed to optimise energy transfer and reduce wear on drilling components. This first preview offers visitors an early look at Sandvik’s latest thinking in drilling technology, complementing the company’s broader “Drill. Crush. Deliver.” narrative. The exhibition also features the Pantera™ DP1110i surface top hammer drill rig as a German market premiere, alongside the Ranger™ DX800 in a high-performance configuration featuring CT55 rock tools and the proven HF820 rock drill series. CT67 rock tools are also on display, alongside advanced automation and condition monitoring solutions for rock processing operations. For quarry operators, these innovations represent the cutting edge of drilling and crushing integration. However, OCP Mechanical Company remains focused on delivering practical, high-value solutions that help operators meet production targets without excessive capital expenditure. Our engineering team works closely with each customer to design custom stone crusher plants that match specific site conditions, feed characteristics, and production targets—a level of personalised service that larger corporations often cannot match.

Market Context: Meeting Rising Demands for Productivity and Efficiency

The innovations on display at steinexpo 2026 reflect broader industry trends that are reshaping the quarrying and aggregates sector. As Ralf Henning, Territory Manager Central Europe at Sandvik Rock Processing, noted: “Requirements for productivity, energy efficiency and digitalization continue to increase”. At steinexpo, Sandvik is showing how customers can meet these challenges with high-performance equipment, intelligent systems, and comprehensive service support. This focus on integrated solutions—spanning drilling, crushing, screening, and digital monitoring—mirrors the growing sophistication of quarry operations worldwide. For equipment buyers, this means more choices than ever when evaluating capital investments. However, it also raises an important question: does every operation need the latest high-tech features, or is there a more practical, cost-effective path to achieving production goals? While digital monitoring, electric drives, and automated systems offer clear benefits, they also come with higher upfront costs and potentially more complex maintenance requirements. OCP Mechanical Company offers a compelling alternative: high-quality, factory-direct crushing and screening solutions backed by decades of experience and a global service network.
