Metso Nordberg® C120™ jaw crusher Jaw crusher

Nordberg® C120™ jaw crusher is generally used as primary crusher, as the first step of size reduction. It prepares the feed for the secondary crusher in a crushing and screening process. However, due to its versatility, Nordberg® C120™ jaw crusher can be utilized in later stages of the crushing process as well, depending on the application and processed material.

Nordberg® C120™ jaw crusher is the result of extensive product development and research. Cavity, kinematics and operating parameters have been defined and optimized to ensure the outstanding performance for which Nordberg® C Series™ jaw crushers are known and valued. Crusher height gives the steepest possible cavity cross-section, and the nip angle high up in the cavity, together with an aggressive well-aligned stroke at the bottom, ensure high throughput capacity and reduction.

Easy to install

Nordberg® C120™ jaw crusher has a range of bolt-on options, including an on-board motor base and guarding for the flywheel and drives, made from specially developed composite materials. The unit is simple to install as a single crusher or as a complete module in a new or existing plant. Nordberg® C120™ jaw crusher is mounted without bolts between the crusher and its structure by using mounting pads, which absorbs the dynamic forces and reduce the dynamic loads transmitted to the structure underneath.

Safe to operate and maintain

For save operation and maintenance, Nordberg® C120™ jaw crusher has a limited number of easily accessible service points. The lifting tools for items such as jaw dies, cheek plates, and the toggle plate are supplied with the crusher to simplify maintenance, making it safer for the crusher operators and service crew.

Controlling uncrushable objects

Active Setting Control (ASC) system is an optional accessory for Nordberg® C120™ jaw crusher. This advanced system automatically adjusts the crusher settings in a way that uncrushable objects exit the cavity before causing blockages or inefficiencies. Active Setting Control enables continuous crushing and protects Nordberg® C120™ from extreme overloads.
