Metso launches three next-generation Nordberg HPe Series cone crushers for mining and aggregates applications
Metso Corporation’s press release on March 25, 2025, at 09:00 a.m. EET
Metso is introducing three next-generation cone crushers, HP600e, HP800e and HP900e, to its Nordberg® HPe series™. The units maintain the trusted HPe features while extending the series to larger crushing capacities for both aggregates production and high-demand mining applications.
“The evolution of Metso’s cone crusher technology brings multiple benefits and presents a true step change in terms of performance, uptime, serviceability and application coverage. We are excited to expand the Nordberg® HPe series and bring to market a wider offering of these high-performance crushers fit for different production purposes,” says Ilkka Somero, Product Manager of HP Cones at Metso’s Aggregates business area.
“Efficiency is the key to meeting the industry's needs. With the robust new HPe units, we can offer performance, longer lifetime and higher cost efficiency to our customers”, says Nicolas Gallay, Director of Gyratory and Large Cone Crushers at Metso.
HP600e and HP900e are an evolution to the existing range, built and based on class-leading proven technology. HP800e is a new addition to the series with a crushing size option of 600 kw/800 hp. All three units come with two modern automation platform options: IC70C and MCP. Metso's modern automation systems provide better visibility, monitoring and control of the crushing process, and enable connection to remote monitoring and further digital services.
Higher level in performance, uptime and application coverage
Nordberg® HP600e, HP800e and HP900e units offer:
- high performance with up to 15% more capacity* and 35% greater crushing force*, thanks to enhanced kinematics and higher power installation,
- new optimized crushing chambers, head spinning reduction, and ring bouncing detection to reach optimum capacity and maximum wear life,
- complete drive and sub-frame for safe and faster installation while reducing dynamic load by up to 70%,
- a new feed cone lifting tool, allowing for safer maintenance when changing wear parts.
* compared to equivalent cone crushers in the same class.
Enhanced performance though equipment upgrades, parts and services
Upgradability is a core philosophy of the HPe Series. Previous-generation crushers can be enhanced with the latest e-features or upgraded with modernized components.
Metso offers a range of upgrades for existing Nordberg® HP Series™ cone crushers, allowing operators to boost performance and efficiency by integrating the newest HPe features or other advanced options. Due to innovative product development and interchangeability of parts, upgrading is seamless and cost-effective.
Additionally, Metso provides installation and commissioning, inspections, refurbishment and shutdown support, Life Cycle Services agreements as well as a comprehensive wears and spares offering. All upgrades and services are planned and executed to the highest standards. Metso’s distribution network offers an additional layer of support and services by providing localized expertise, rapid response times and tailored service solutions.
With over 13,000 units sold, the Nordberg® HP / HPe Series™ cone crushers are a trusted choice in the mining and aggregates industries.
