Just one of the expected highlights from Metso Outotec’s CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023 upcoming presence in Las Vegas, USA, will be an evolution of its Nordberg HP cone crusher.

The company will show off its latest innovations at the international construction trade show, taking place on March 14-18, 2023.

Juha Yli-Petäys, SVP, Global Distribution Management at Metso Outotec, said: “Throughout the whole aggregates and construction industry, sustainability is gaining ground and has become a big driver for innovations and operations. For us at Metso Outotec, sustainability and improved performance are among our key goals with our customers and present in every R&D project. At CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023, we will demonstrate our groundbreaking innovations that address our customers’ key challenges like energy consumption, uptime, safety or carbon footprint reduction.”

The special previews for CONEXPO-CON/AGG visitors at Metso Outotec’s booth include:

• The HPe range – evolution in motion: The most popular modern cone crusher in the world, the Nordberg HP cone crusher, is undergoing an evolution, Metso Outotec says. The new range is even more efficient, meeting the varying and ever-increasing performance needs of the aggregates and mining industres. The new Nordberg HPe range offers higher performance and uptime in a more sustainable way. The kinematical crushing action and crusher cavities have been further developed and optimized, resulting in significantly higher performance and grade of application flexibility. Significantly, the crusher liners can be installed without backing material. This not only makes the liner changes easier and shortens the time needed for service breaks, but also has a positive impact on the environment and operator safety.
• The iconic Lokotrack® range and the vision for the future: Lokotrack track-mounted crushers and screens are renowned for their outstanding performance and dependability when it comes to aggregates production, the company says. At CONEXPO-CON/AGG, it will display the latest version of the Lokotrack LT120. The LT120 features the proven Nordberg C120 jaw crusher and is equipped for optimised performance and extended wear life. It includes the Planet Positive hybrid composite MX jaw dies, a rock breaker, rubber lining in the feeder, a belt cleaning set for the long main conveyor, as well as the latest intelligent crushing solution and the new Metrics remote monitoring platform. Additionally, Metso Outotec will provide a sneak peek at the future vision of the next generation of Lokotracks, which, it says, will continue to transform mobile crushing.
• Aftermarket solutions to optimise performance: With the OEM quality parts and digitally powered services, Metso Outotec can optimise the performance and uptime of aggregates producing equipment at every phase of the production lifecycle. Metso Outotec’s aftermarket solutions help operators reduce cost per tonne and decrease their energy consumption and carbon footprint. The digital solution, Metso Outotec Metrics, which enables a wide range of services targeting improved performance, availability and equipment lifespan for different aggregates applications, will also be showcased at the event.
