Productivity is achieved through long stroke and fixed jaw die. The C120 has a large feed opening of 1200 x 870 mm (34 x 47’’) and an aggressive cavity cross section, securing a high performance and reduction ratio.
Nominal power is 160kW (200hp), operating speed 230 rpm, closed side setting between 70-200mm. Operational weight is 26,000kg, excluding options.
In terms of cavity volume and crusher weight, the C120 is positioned between the existing Metso C116 and C125 jaw crusher models.
Metso product manager Ilkka Somero said: “When starting the C120 project, we listened closely to our customers and collected field data from a number of sites. Based on that, we decided to design the crusher cavity and kinematics first. As a result, Metso can now offer aggregates producers, large-scale contractors and mining companies a new crusher that meets all the standards set for any demanding application.”
