Metso's Indian-manufactured Nordwheeler portable crushing and screening plants are said to be playing an important role in a number of road and other construction infrastructure projects in Asia and Africa.
During a short period of time, Metso has sold over 30 portable Nordwheeler plants to Asian and African-based aggregates producers. The plants are manufactured in Metso's factory in Bawal, India – earlier this year reaching the milestone of 1,000 Indian-manufactured portable plants.

During a short period of time,6934 Metso has sold over 30 portable Nordwheeler plants to Asian and African-based aggregates producers.
The plants are manufactured in Metso's factory in Bawal, India – earlier this year reaching the milestone of 1,000 Indian-manufactured portable plants.
The foundation of each Nordwheeler portable plant is a rugged steel frame, which Metso equips according to the customer's needs and specifications with jaw, cone or impactor crushers, required feeders, screens and conveyors. By combining two or three portable plants, Metso says a complete, mobile crushing and screening process can be built.
Metso began building Nordwheeler portable plants in India 10 years ago.
"The basic engineering concept for these machines was originally made in Metso's European factories. Through a professional technology transfer, these products were brought to the Indian market. Here, the models were further developed for simple and efficient use by our local engineering teams of in Gurgaon", said Venkatraman Ravindran, Metso Mining and Construction’s general manager of mobile equipment for the Asian market.
"In India alone, we have sold over 900 units. Export marketing began recently, and, so far, we have sold plants to countries like Thailand, Oman, Angola, Nigeria, Ghana, Ethiopia and Mozambique", he added.
Metso's portable plants are best suited for small to medium size quarries as well as for contractors, for capacities between 100-400tonnes/hour. A standard plant consists of two or three crushing stages.
Aggregates produced with Metso's portable plants can be used in a wide variety of infrastructure projects to build roads, bridges, railway networks, airports and to manufacture concrete and asphalt.
Nordwheeler plants are run with environmentally friendly electrical motors which also secure good energy efficiency.
A plant typically consists of a C96, C106 or C116 range jaw crusher for the primary stage, followed by adequate secondary and tertiary cone crushers from the proven GP or HP cone ranges. Instead of a cone crusher, a Barmac vertical impact crusher can also be selected for the tertiary stage to secure the good end product quality and cubicity.
Inclined CVB screens classify the material, and feeding is handled by either small dump trucks or front wheeled loaders.
Metso’s worldwide local network ensures expert supervision of the erection and commissioning of a Nordwheeler portable plant, as well as comprehensive and continuous after sales service, including spare and wear parts, and all maintenance services.
