Metso launches My Plant Planner on-line configurator

Metso My Plant Planner Metso is introducing a drag and drop 3D crushing and screening plant configurator that enables professionals in the mining and aggregate industries to design more productive and efficient plants through real-time insights. The design and simulation tool called My Plant Planner is available on metso.com and is free for anyone to use. ”We are really excited about My Plant Planner. Our aim is to help our customers easily test different configurations and operating conditions to see how they affect process performance. The tool allows you to either design and simulate a new crushing and screening plant in 3D or test how upgrading your current equipment can improve performance” explains Guillaume Lambert Vice President Crushing Systems at Metso. My Plant Planner is packed full of unique features and insights to help in the planning of optimized crushing and screening circuits. It is also possible to download a detailed report of the designed plant. The tool is based on proprietary Metso software VPSTM and BrunoTM.Unique to My Plant Planner is the possibility to design and simulate the ideal crushing and screening circuit in the same tool in 3D. The configurator makes it easy to predict general power consumption of the system and to see the footprint of the circuit a feature exclusive to My Plant Planner.

Metso introduces two new game-changing crushing and screening plant concepts for mining

Metso is introducing two new game-changing solutions for the crushing and screening plants in mining: the flexible FITTM stations and the smart ForesightTM stations. The two unique cost efficient and productive solutions will provide significant resource and time savings for the mines. “We have the experience in delivering crushing and screening plants with over one hundred installations globally. We also understand the needs of customers today in the evolving industry. That is why we are using our legacy and expertise to introduce these modularized crushing stations that focus on CAPEX reduction and shorter lead times” says Guillaume Lambert Vice President Crushing Systems at Metso. Unique benefits The new stations offer a wide range of flexible solutions with ease of maintenance and time savings for any operation. The flexible FIT™ stations and smart Foresight™ stations provide unique benefits that set them apart. The FITTM stations are designed with the focus on speed and flexibility. There are two stations to select from: Recrushing station and Jaw station. The steel structures are supplied in modules that fit easily into containers for transportation. This also reduces on-site welding usually required and allows for quicker startup. Container delivery reduces delivery time by up to 25% compared to similar crushing and screening plants. Erection is also reduced by up to 15%. The ForesightTM stations are equipped with smart automation technology including Metso MetricsTM VisioRockTM level sensors and crusher variable-frequency drive (VFD). These features enable optimized crusher speeds preventative maintenance and optimizing of production levels up to 6000 tons per hour. The MP cone crusher station features a scalping MFTM screen and an MPTM Series cone crusher. Both stations come with proven Metso equipment and technology to deliver maximum productivity for even the most demanding mining applications.
