Metso introduced three cone crushers, HP600e, HP800e and HP900e, to its Nordberg HPe series.
The units maintain HPe features while extending the series to larger crushing capacities for both aggregates production and high-demand mining applications.
"The evolution of Metso's cone crusher technology brings multiple benefits and presents a true step change in terms of performance, uptime, serviceability and application coverage," said Ilkka Somero, product manager of HP cones of Metso's Aggregates business area. "We are excited to expand the Nordberg HPe series and bring to market a wider offering of these high-performance crushers fit for different production purposes."
"Efficiency is the key to meeting the industry's needs," said Nicolas Gallay, director of gyratory and large cone crushers of Metso. "With the robust new HPe units, we can offer performance, longer lifetime and higher cost efficiency to our customers."
HP600e and HP900e are an evolution to the existing range, built and based on proven technology. HP800e is a new addition to the series with a crushing size option of 600 kW/800 hp. All three units come with two modern automation platform options: IC70C and MCP. Metso's automation systems provide better visibility, monitoring and control of the crushing process and enable connection to remote monitoring and further digital services, according to Metso.
Higher Level in Performance, Uptime, Application Coverage
Nordberg HP600e, HP800e and HP900e units offer:
• High performance with up to 15 pecent more capacity* and 35 percent greater crushing force*, due to enhanced kinematics and higher power installation;
• New optimized crushing chambers, head spinning reduction and ring bouncing detection to reach optimum capacity and maximum wear life;
• Complete drive and sub-frame for safe and faster installation while reducing dynamic load by up to 70 percent; and
• A new feed cone lifting tool, allowing for safer maintenance when changing wear parts.
* compared with equivalent cone crushers in the same class.
Enhanced Performance Though Equipment Upgrades, Parts, Services
Upgradability is a core philosophy of the HPe Series. Previous-generation crushers can be enhanced with the latest e-features or upgraded with modernized components, according to Metso.
Metso offers a range of upgrades for existing Nordberg HP Series cone crushers, allowing operators to boost performance and efficiency by integrating the newest HPe features or other advanced options. Due to product development and interchangeability of parts, upgrading is seamless and cost-effective, according to Metso.
In addition, Metso provides installation and commissioning, inspections, refurbishment and shutdown support, life cycle services agreements as well as a comprehensive wears and spares offering. All upgrades and services are planned and executed to the highest standards. Metso's distribution network offers an additional layer of support and services by providing localized expertise, rapid response times and tailored service solutions.
