Metso expands Nordberg crushing range with three next-generation models

Metso pushes its lineup even further with three next-generation cone crushers, HP600e, HP800e, and HP900e in the Nordberg HPe series. The new units maintain HPe features while extending the series to larger crushing capacities for both aggregate production and high-demand mining applications. 

HP600e and HP900e are an evolution to the existing range. The 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 enhanced visibility, monitoring, and control of the crushing process, and enable connection to remote monitoring and further digital services.

Nordberg HP600e, HP800e, and HP900e units offer:

• Increased capacity and greater crushing force with the enhanced kinematics and higher power installation
• New crushing chambers, head-spinning reduction, and ring-bouncing detection
• Complete drive and sub-frame for safe and faster installation while reducing dynamic load by up to 70 percent
• A new feed cone lifting tool, allowing for safer maintenance when changing wear parts

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 innovative product development and interchangeability of parts, upgrading is easy and cost-effective.
