Nordberg® GP550™ cone crusher is in the larger end of Nordberg® GP Series™ cone crushers range. It is used as secondary, tertiary, or quaternary crusher both in aggregates production and in mining operations.
This cone crusher is available as stationary and portable versions.
LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE
GP550™ cone crusher is an excellent choice whenever high reduction, first-class cubicity or great capacity is required.
The optimized design of the crusher castings makes it possible to use a higher power rating than any other cone crusher with an equal head diameter. Cavity designs provide maximum yields for required high-quality end products. The stroke and cavity change feature allows crusher throughput to be easily adjusted to work in harmony with the rest of the crushing plant.
The steep head angle in this cone crusher ensures trouble-free operation in varying feed conditions with a high reduction ratio. Continuing process and crusher control help to attain high availability with optimum production levels of desired end products.
SUPERIOR RELIABILITY
This Nordberg® cone crusher has a simple but strong two-point supported shaft design that offers mechanical reliability. Furthermore, the crusher can be equipped with Metso’s IC50 automation system that continuously monitors crusher load and operating parameters to ensure optimal operating condition and maximized availability.
GP550™ crusher’s reliability in demanding crushing applications is guaranteed by Metso's acclaimed metallurgical know-how, and ongoing development of manganese materials, metallurgical compounds and geometrical design.
TRUE VERSATILITY
The crusher can be adapted to any specific production requirements with adjustments such as change of cavities, eccentric strokes, counter shaft speeds and different control methods.
The stroke change feature allows crusher throughput to be easily adjusted to work in harmony with the rest of the crushing plant. The adjustable stroke also allows you to attain proper choke feed conditions and optimum crusher settings, ensuring the maximum yield of a required end-product size.
Metso’s crusher automation, on the other hand, provides smooth process adaptation, full crushing process automation, and ensures that your crushing machine runs at its optimal performance level.
EASY INSTALLATION, USE AND MAINTENANCE
This cone crusher is engineered to be easy to maintain and service.
Using durable, optimized parts prolong the lifetime of equipment, but whenever service is required, Nordberg® GP550™ can be disassembled from above, and all heavy components can be lifted.
The crusher has lower installation height that reduces installation costs since smaller support structures and shorter conveyors are needed. Thanks to these benefits, GP550™ is an excellent solution also for portable and mobile applications.
The crusher automation enables adjusting the crusher from a distance, which reduces risks and improves the safety of the plant personnel.
