CONEXPO PREVIEW

tension, abrasiveness and energy index testing, enabling optimisation of machine performance for specific site conditions.

The Vermeer SM55 features drive-on, drive-off capability that enables single-load transportation with minimal permitting requirements, the company says

extended setup times at each location, streamlining operations and enhancing overall efficiency.

The machine’ s single-side, direct-drive drum design delivers enhanced power efficiency compared with chain-drive models while requiring fewer components for reduced maintenance demands, according to the company.“ The top-down cutting action increases drum power availability while reducing material grade blending and minimising wear on cutting teeth and machine undercarriage,” it added.“ Operators control material sizing by adjusting cutting depth, drum speed, travel speed and tooth selection, helping

minimise the need for secondary crushing equipment.”

The SM55 achieves optimal manoeuvrability through its low centre of gravity, stable parallel track design and zero-turn radius. These features combine to provide enhanced stability across diverse surface conditions while allowing the machine to navigate tight sites efficiently.

The SM55 is engineered to achieve higher tooth-tip force, providing the capability to cut effectively in hardrock conditions, the company clams. Testing at the Vermeer Rock Lab helps characterise rock samples through unconfined compressive strength, indirect

Committed to partnerships, growth

There will also be a significant mineral processing overlap at CONEXPO, with Metso being one name to consider visiting.

Vincent Celsi, SVP, Metso Products Business Line, said:“ From the new Lokotrack ® EC range and the 50-year legacy of our Nordberg ® C Series™ crushers to the launch of our expanded digital portfolio, the new HRC™ 10 high-capacity roll crusher and next-generation wear solutions, every advancement we are unveiling is designed to deliver more uptime, more sustainability and more value.”

The TSE Series™ screen, together with a wide range of screening media options, will also be on display at CONEXPO. This integrated approach ensures perfect compatibility, maximum efficiency and simplified service for reliable performance and lower total cost of ownership, the company says.

Ahead of the show, Metso will host its first-ever Distributor Days in the US in early March, reinforcing, it says, its commitment to strong partnerships and collaborative growth.
