Another premiere was the acquaintance of participants and guests with the new division of the Group - EVOBLAST Engineering. Its tasks are the development of innovative technologies in the field of opencast and underground mining, their introduction at customer’s sites, consulting and audits of drilling and blasting operations, as well as advanced training of blasting experts.

According to Sergey Mozer, Director for Strategic Development of EVOBLAST Group and General Director of EVOBLAST Engineering, the company is an aggregator of engineering solutions and intellectual products for blasting. One of the subdivision’s activities is also a 4-day practical consulting course "Safe and Effective Blasting", aimed at improving the blasters’ skills working with modern technologies. It contains both an interesting theoretical part and unique practical cases. Sergey Mozer noted that, this course aroused keen interest of the Exhibition participants and guests.

The EVOBLAST Group, both independently and jointly with scientific communities and other companies, develops new software products and digital solutions. One of the promising collaborations began within the framework of the exhibition. The company has signed a strategic partnership agreement with Piklema, a developer of complex technological processes for the mining industry.

Mikhail Makeev, Piklema CEO, revealed the essence of the innovative project of the two companies:
"Together with our colleagues from the EVOBLAST Group, we are working on the development of an automatic system using artificial intelligence and computer vision technologies. It will help to monitor continuously the face and further analyze the entire volume of the blasted block fragmentation, which can improve the efficiency of drilling and blasting planning. Our company is a developer of digital solutions. Besides this, EVOBLAST Group has unique expertise in drilling and blasting operations. And EVOBLAST Engineering will introduce our joint development at the sites. Without false modesty, I can say that our product in many ways is already ahead of world analogues."

All activities of the EVOBLAST Group are aimed at comprehensive assistance to mining companies to increase the productivity and efficiency of opencast and underground drilling and blasting operations.
