TECHNOLOGY 2 1 2. 3. Spare parts for jaw and cone crushers forms a big part of Pilot Crushtec’s business. Pilot Crushtec has appointed a product manager for its Tower Lights product line and plans to expand its focus for uses outside of mining.

Scherf concludes by describing the added value the company has gained since its alignment with Metso. “It’s a very good company, very technically minded, incredibly supportive and our goals are aligned. For example, the distributor manager spends two weeks of every month based at our offices and we have a fulltime Metso product support specialist based permanently at our offices; something that I think is phenomenal. Another aspect of their technical assistance is the Bruno software simulation package, which enables us to accurately predict the results of a machine or train of machines across a given range of applications.” ■ 1. 3 Power 75kW Basic crusher weight 7 670kg Feed opening 800mm x 510mm Capacity up to 335tph Speed 350rpm Operational crusher weight 9 520kg 32 _ QUARRY SA | MARCH/APRIL 2018 Metso Nordberg C80 crusher specs
