NEW EQUIPMENT
Metso Nordplant C80
Metso’s Nordberg C Series jaw crushers are
engineered to deliver maximum productivity
at the lowest operating costs. Reliability
combined with great performance, low
operating costs, and easy maintenance ensure
the best result in a real primary crushing
application. The C80 jaw crusher is the primary
crushing station for the Nordplant, which
comprises primary, secondary, and tertiary
crushing modules, as well as secondary and
tertiary screening modules.
The C80 is intended for use in modular
configurations, and has a feed opening of
800mm × 510mm and capacity up to 335
tonnes per hour. The skid-mounted crusher
does not require concrete foundations,
allowing for quick installation and easy
plant integration. Areas where any wear
is anticipated are engineered to be easy
to replace or protected by sacrificial wear
items, ensuring that maintenance is easy
and cost efficient over the long lifetime of
the crusher. These designs protect the most
expensive main components from wear
and shorten maintenance time, resulting in
higher uptime.
Metso partnership
The open day was well supported by senior
members of the Metso management team
who expressed their complete confidence in
their regional distributor. “The best partner
we want to have is Pilot — we have allied
philosophies, especially a commitment to
service and support,” said Adrian Wood, vice-
president Distribution AGG Business Line.
Proof of the rapport that exists between
customer and supplier was shown in
September last year, when Pilot Crushtec
hour, and the heavy-duty apron feeder allows
for loading by a front-end loader, excavator, or
mobile crusher, while the double-deck scalping
screen provides three sizes of product.
Suitable for applications as diverse
as alluvial diamond gravel screening,
downstream processing, and building rubble
recycling, the diversity of the MaxiScalp 600
will find applications in mining, quarrying,
asphalt, construction, and recycling all over
southern Africa.
