Wheel-Mounted Crushing for High-output
Metso Nordwheeler Crushers.
Mobile Crushers for High-Output, Road-Ready Flexibility
Efficient Crushing Without Fixed Infrastructure.
Metso Nordwheeler crushing plants combine proven crusher technology with a wheel-mounted chassis for easy transportation and fast site setup. Designed for quarrying, contracting, and semi-mobile operations, these units are ideal for producers who need high throughput with the flexibility to relocate equipment.
The Nordwheeler range includes models with jaw, cone, impact, and vertical shaft impact (VSI) crushers. Each unit is engineered for efficient material reduction, delivering reliable performance with minimal setup time. Powered by electric motors and ready for integration into multistage plants, Nordwheeler units are commonly used in hard rock quarries, recycled aggregate processing, and mineral production environments.
With transport weights optimised for New Zealand road regulations, these machines are engineered for compliance and performance in local conditions. Chassis-mounted electric control panels and feed hoppers, as well as onboard conveyors in many models, streamline site commissioning.

Frequently Asked Questions.
What is a Metso Nordwheeler crusher?
Metso Nordwheeler crushers are wheel-mounted mobile units built for fast transport and efficient material processing. They include a range of crushing solutions for primary, secondary, and tertiary applications.
What types of crushers are available in the Nordwheeler range?
How are Nordwheeler crushers powered?
They run on electric motors, suitable for plug-in grid supply or connection to a diesel generator set. This reduces emissions and supports lower operating costs compared to fully diesel-driven plants.
What is the typical setup time for a Nordwheeler plant?
Setup is typically completed in a few hours to a full day, depending on the model and site conditions. No complex foundations or crane lifts are usually required.
Can I integrate Nordwheeler crushers with screens or conveyors?
Yes, Nordwheeler units are modular and designed to connect easily with Nordwheeler screens, stackers, or other crushing stages for a complete mobile processing train.
Are Nordwheeler crushers suitable for New Zealand road transport?
Yes. They’re designed with bogie axle configurations, king pin heights, and transport weights that meet NZTA standards. Full transport dimensions are available on request.
How do I choose between a jaw, cone, or impact model?
Jaw crushers are ideal for primary reduction of hard rock. Cone crushers offer precision for secondary and tertiary crushing. Impact crushers and Barmac VSI units are best for shaping and final-stage production.
Can Nordwheeler units be used as part of a fixed plant?
Absolutely. Many operators install Nordwheeler crushers as semi-permanent solutions within static plant layouts due to their efficiency and modular design.
Do Nordwheeler crushers come with automation or remote monitoring?
Yes, most models are equipped with advanced Metso automation options like IC™ process control and remote diagnostics, improving safety and productivity.
What are the transport weights and sizes of each model?
Transport weights vary from approx. 30 to 60+ tonnes depending on the crusher type and chassis configuration. Dimensions include bogie weight, king pin height, and axle loads for compliance.
