Aggregates, minerals processing and metals refining equipment manufacturer Metso is expanding its Lokotrack mobile crushing portfolio with two new models designed for different customer applications.

The new Lokotrack LT400RS mobile impact crusher, part of the Lokotrack EC range, is designed for demanding aggregate recycling and demolition applications, while the Lokotrack LT200HPX mobile cone crusher delivers efficient aggregate production with integrated screening in a compact mobile package.

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, notes Metso in a statement. Metso says its LT400RS is engineered to meet these challenges.

As part of Metso’s diesel-electric Lokotrack EC range, the LT400RS helps recycling contractors process demanding waste materials more efficiently while reducing fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions.

“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,” says Metso Track Solutions VP Jarmo Vuorenpää.

The new models, he adds, help customers improve productivity, lower their cost for every tonne processed and maintain high uptime.

“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,” says Vuorenpää.

The Lokotrack LT400RS – a new 70 t diesel-electric mobile impact crusher – combines high crushing and screening performance with the mobility to relocate quickly from site to site. It helps recycling contractors increase productivity, improve material separation and reduce operating costs, while enabling lower emissions.

The Lokotrack LT400RS comprises a new 250 kW Nordberg NP1213MR impact crusher with a two-breaker-plate option, supported by a 430 kW generator set rating and heavy-duty blow bars for recycling.

It offers efficient material separation using a large two-deck product screen (6.4 m2), powerful wind sifter, and an adjustable electromagnet that help produce clean, accurately sized end products.

The Lokotrack LT400RS uses wide conveyors, generous clearances and good cleaning access to ensure seamless material flow, while offering lower operating costs as a result of the diesel-electric power transmission and the possibility to connect to external grid power that helps reduce fuel consumption, emissions and noise.

Easy relocation is afforded using onboard foldable side conveyors and compact transport dimensions. The screen unit can be transported separately when needed.

The Lokotrack LT400RS is also safe and simple to use owing to a patented mechanical system that enables access to the crusher only when the rotor has stopped, thereby making wear part changes safer.

The new ICX automation system offers a bigger display, easier troubleshooting and new features such as production recipes.

Lokotrack LT200HPX

The Lokotrack LT200HPX is a versatile mobile cone crusher designed for reliable aggregate.

A two-deck pre-screen and a big two-deck product screen (5.6 m2) provide efficient screening in a single track-mounted package, while a robust design and wide conveyors enable seamless material flow and high capacity.

The direct crusher drive of the Lokotrack LT200HPX improves fuel efficiency, and smart folding functions simplify transport and maintenance.

The Lokotrack LT200HPX employs a high-capacity Nordberg HP200e cone crusher with direct drive for hard rock crushing and good end-product quality with no-backing liners for quick, easier and safer liner change and wide cavity options.

Flexible screening options enable customers to choose a two-deck pre-screen, a two-deck product screen, or both to match their application needs.

Transport and maintenance is made easy through smart folding and lowering functions and extensive service platforms.

Both new products are compatible with Metso digital services, including Production Performance and AI-powered Predictive Maintenance, helping customers optimise production, plan maintenance more proactively and improve uptime.
