The NW Rapid concept gives quarries capacity, mobility and flexibility, reducing the time between job assignment and delivery. The plant consists of primary, secondary and tertiary crushing stations that make the entire plant quick to set up. The process layout and flow sheets are pre-designed for different capacities and end products. As wheel-mounted machines with conveyors designed to be set up without heavy cranes, the whole plant can be relocated in one to two years to a new crushing or construction site. Crushing permits are also easier to get for a portable plant.
"Producing aggregates near a periodical construction site such as a highway, airport or dam project, there are significant savings compared to transporting the rocks from a stationary quarry. To give customers an even better competitive edge, we have renewed the 250tph range crushers with integrated screen. The material flow is better, separate the electric cabinet from the chassis for improved economics, and we are introducing a new on-board under size conveyor for easier transportation of the NW220GPS, NW200HPS and NW7150S Rapid in one piece," says Jarno Pohja, product manager, portable solutions, Aggregates business area, Metso Outotec. "We are also adding two new portable screens to the range, NW2060S and NW1855S, to have even more flexibility for the customer process," adds Pohja.
