METSO have announced that the first products in their new diesel-electric range of Lokotrack crushers and screens will be launched in spring 2024. The invitation-only launch event, called Lokolaunch, will take place at the Nokia Arena in Tampere, Finland, from 14–16 May 2024.

The new track mounted Lokotrack range, called the EC range, is designed and built on a unique new platform that Metso have been developing since 2020. The Lokotrack EC units feature a next-generation diesel-electric powerline. All process functions are electrically driven and controlled by automation to always perform at the optimal load level. The new Lokotrack will have a robust and distinctive design and it will feature the latest digital tools, making operating and maintaining the units easier than ever.

 

‘The new Lokotrack EC range will be transformational for the mobile crushing and screening of aggregates. This new hybrid equipment with higher efficiency and lower emissions will also significantly contribute to Metso’s Planet Positive offering and the company’s commitment to reach its ambitious climate targets. The new range, along with its related parts and services, has been designed to address the evolving needs of the industry,’ said Jarmo Vuorenpää, director of the new Lokotrack offering at Metso.

In addition to launching the new Lokotrack EC range at the Lokolaunch event, Metso will present the latest advancements in crushing technology, utilization of digital tools, and parts and services designed to significantly enhance the customer’s operational efficiency and productivity throughout the entire lifecycle of their equipment.

‘Lokolaunch 2024 is more than just an event for customers and other key stakeholders. It signifies a demonstration of our commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation and sustainability for the aggregates industry. We are excited to gather the industry’s key players to celebrate this great milestone with us,’ said Renaud Lapointe, senior vice-president of the Metso Products business line in the Aggregates business area.
