Crushing & Conveying

Metso’s Mining and Construction Technology introduces the Metso C120 jaw crusher, which is the 13th member of the field-proven C-series range of crushers. Metso’s C120 combines reliability, crushing efficiency and versatility in both stationary and mobile applications with safety and ease of use.
Metso has given the C120 a new, durable and user-friendly design. The design of the casting is based on thorough FEA analysis and casting simulations. The C120 is engineered for reliable operation and long life, resulting in high, constant crushing capacity and uptime.

Ilkka Somero, Metso’s Product manager for jaw crushers, 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.”
