New model of the Lokotrack Urban series
Metso has expanded its community-friendly Lokotrack® UrbanTM series mobile crushing and screening plant range. With its advanced protection features, the Metso Urban solution significantly restricts noise and dust emissions compared to conventional crushing, enabling more sustainable construction operations in cities. “The Metso Urban solution was developed to enable crushing operations in the most regulated urban areas, while actively protecting both employees on site as well as people living nearby,” says Kimmo Anttila, Vice President, Lokotrack Solutions at Metso.
The Metso Urban solution combines Metso‘s crushing technology with modern environmental and safety features to produce a unique machine. The latest addition to the series, the Urban LT96 is ideal for small to mid-sized contractors crushing and recycling demolished concrete on site. The Lokotrack Urban Series crushing and screening plants introduce innovative and patented solutions that enable the combination of effective noise protection with easy maintenance access. The noise protection distances can typically be reduced by 50 - 60 % compared to traditional crushing plants operating in hard rock applications. Crushing within cities is becoming more tightly controlled through environmental and safety regulations that vary from country to country. The Metso Urban series is equipped with integrated features to fulfill some of the most critical of requirements, which are especially beneficial when it comes to obtaining environmental permits for short-term crushing operations.
