A unique TBM that excavates lava
The Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport awarded SIS—a consortium formed by Finninc and Sacyr—a metro section between the towns of Misterbianco and Paternò, as well as an additional section between Monte Po and Misterbianco, which connects to the currently operating line in Catania (Sicily). For this project, we will use an innovative and uncommon TBM known as a Variable Density TBM (VD-TBM). Only about 20 of this kind have been used worldwide.
