Manufactured at the Terex Crushing Technology Centre of Excellence in Coalville, the MT120J is a robust addition to the MAGNA lineup. Featuring an advanced 1200 mm x 820 mm Terex chamber that is optimised for high-performance crushing, the MT120J has an output potential of up to 600 tph (661 US tph), depending on material type and crusher settings, and is designed to handle challenging and high-volume operations.
One of the key attributes of the MT120J is its quick set-up process. The machine includes a ground-level hydraulic folding feed hopper with a hydraulic locking system, supporting operators in getting it set up and running efficiently. The robust feed hopper is wear-resistant, and the stepped self-cleaning grizzly feeder with under feeder screen provides a smooth, continuous flow of material. Additionally, the MT120J is equipped with a wide bypass chute that optimises material flow, while the aggressive crushing action of the high swing jaw encourages efficient material entry into the chamber.
The crusher also offers a fully hydraulic setting adjustment system, which allows operators to make quick and precise changes to the crusher settings, enhancing both flexibility and operational efficiency. The highly efficient direct drive system supports low fuel consumption and enables the MT120J to be a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution. Its powerful engine operates at low RPM, further reducing fuel consumption without sacrificing performance. While the first unit produced is a diesel/direct drive configuration, the MT120J model can also be built as a fully hybrid unit to utilise the onboard genset drive system or accept external electricity supply (MT120Je).
For ease of use, the MT120J is fitted with a modern, user-friendly PLC control system that includes an auto start facility. It also comes with radio remote control and MAGNA telemetry as standard, allowing for intuitive monitoring and control of the machine. The product conveyor is angle adjustable, which lowers for easy access and transport, while under-crusher chassis design offers excellent service and maintenance access.
The MT120J is also designed with safety and maintenance in mind, equipped with a dust suppression system to provide cleaner operations as well as straightforward access to the power unit canopy for maintenance and service.
"The MT120J is a solution built for high performance and maximum productivity," said Neil McIlwaine, Business Line Director for MAGNA. "It has advanced features and durability that make it the ideal crusher for Mineral Processing Solutions in Australia, who needs equipment that can keep pace with the demands of large-scale projects. We look forward to seeing it deliver exceptional performance and support their continued success in Australia."
