Our end customers expect high machine availability that is easy to reach using Metso's machinery," comments Managing Director Michel Kurz. To celebrate the 10th unit of the company, Kurz Aufbereitungsanlagen named their new LT96 after the youngest son of Michel Kurz. The name "Lian Matti" is engraved on the machine plate.
