Metso is expanding its Lokotrack mobile crushing portfolio with the introduction of the LT400RS.
The new mobile impact crusher, part of the Lokotrack diesel-electric EC Range, is designed for demanding aggregate recycling and demolition applications.
As urban development and infrastructure renewal increase, construction and demolition waste is becoming a growing material stream.
Materials such as concrete, asphalt and mixed demolition waste are more difficult to process than quarry rock, as they often contain rebar, wood and other contaminants and vary greatly in quality.
The LT400RS is engineered to meet these challenges.
As part of Metso’s EC Range, it helps recycling contractors process demanding waste materials more efficiently while reducing fuel consumption and emissions.
The LT400RS made its debut at SteinExpo in Germany, alongside the new Lokotrack LT200HPX mobile cone crusher.
“The launch of the LT400RS and LT200HPX further strengthens our Lokotrack offering by bringing customers purpose-built solutions for two important applications: recycling and aggregate production. The new models help customers improve productivity, lower their cost per tonne and maintain high uptime,” said Jarmo Vuorenpää, Vice President of Track Solutions at Metso.
“Backed by Metso’s strong aftermarket offering and global support network, they help customers get the most out of their investment throughout the equipment lifetime.”
The LT400RS is a 70-tonne diesel-electric mobile impact crusher that combines high crushing and screening performance with the ability to quickly move site to site. It helps recycling contractors increase productivity, improve material separation and reduce operating costs, while enabling lower emissions.
“The LT400RS is designed to meet the core needs of recycling customers: reliable high capacity, efficient material separation, and easy relocation between sites,” Vuorenpää said. “With its diesel-electric drive and electric grid connection, it delivers strong performance while helping customers achieve the lowest possible operating costs.”
The Lokotrack LT400RS, part of the Metso Plus offering, supports more sustainable and efficient aggregates operations by helping customers improve productivity, and reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
Metso equipped the LT400RS with the new 250 kW Nordberg NP1213MR impact crusher with a two-breaker-plate option, supported by a 430 kW genset rating and heavy-duty blow bars for recycling.
For efficient material separation, the crusher features a large, 6.4-metre two-deck product screen, powerful wind sifter and an adjustable electromagnet to produce clean, accurately sized end products. The crusher is also equipped with wide conveyors, generous clearances and excellent cleaning access to ensure seamless material flow.
To simplify transportability, the LT400RS has onboard foldable side conveyors and compact transport dimensions. The screen unit can be transported separately when needed.
For safety, a patented mechanical system allows access to the crusher only when the rotor has stopped, making wear part changes safer.
The diesel-electric power transmission is paired with the ability to connect to external grid power to help reduce fuel consumption, emissions and noise.
Metso’s new ICX automation system includes a larger display, easy troubleshooting and several new features such as production recipes
