Company to showcase latest innovations and offerings for the aggregates industry at Conexpo-Con/Agg 2023

METSO Outotec will present their latest innovations, technologies and offerings for the aggregates industry at the Conexpo-Con/Agg 2023 international construction trade show taking place in Las Vegas from 14–18 March.

‘Throughout the whole aggregates and construction industry, sustainability is gaining ground and has become a big driver for innovations and operations,’ said Juha Yli-Petäys, senior vice-president of global distribution management at Metso Outotec.

‘For us at Metso Outotec, sustainability and improved performance are among our key goals with our customers and present in every R&D project. At Conexpo-Con/Agg 2023, we will demonstrate our ground-breaking innovations that address our customers’ key challenges such as energy consumption, uptime, safety or carbon footprint reduction.’

The special previews for visitors to the Metso Outotec booth will include evolution in motion with the HPe range, and the vision for the future of the iconic Lokotrack range.

The most popular modern cone crusher in the world, the Nordberg HP cone crusher, is undergoing an evolution. According to Metso Outotec, the new range is even more efficient, meeting the varying and ever-increasing needs of the aggregates and mining industries by offering higher performance and uptime in a more sustainable way.

The kinematical crushing action and crusher cavities have been further developed and optimized, resulting in significantly higher performance and application flexibility. Significantly, the crusher liners can be installed without backing material, which not only makes the liner changes easier and shortens the time needed for service breaks, but also has a positive impact on the environment and operator safety.

Meanwhile, the latest version of the Lokotrack LT120 – one of the most efficient mobile jaw crushers in the market for demanding quarry and contract crushing applications, will be on display at the show.

The LT120 features the proven Nordberg C120 jaw crusher and is equipped for optimized performance and extended wear life. It includes the Planet Positive hybrid composite MX jaw dies, a rock breaker, rubber lining in the feeder, a belt cleaning set for the long main conveyor, as well as the latest intelligent crushing solution and the new Metrics remote monitoring platform.

Metso Outotec will also provide a sneak peek at the future vision of the next generation of Lokotracks, which, they say, will continue to transform mobile crushing.

In addition, the company's new digital solution, Metso Outotec Metrics, which enables a wide range of services targeting improved performance, availability and equipment lifespan for different aggregates applications, will be showcased at the event.
