From innovation to industry gamechanger
The journey began - Opens in a new window with a bold idea: to create a mobile, track-mounted crusher that would revolutionize on-site operations. Metso, then Lokomo, collaborated with a crushing contractor customer Telamurska to develop the first Lokotrack prototype. This innovative solution eliminated the need for transporting rocks to quarries and aggregates back to job sites, introducing unmatched efficiency for road construction and other projects.
The concept was met with enthusiasm at the market and Metso began the serial production of Lokotrack crushers in 1987 as an industry first. Today, Lokotrack crushers are found on every continent, also Antarctica, where their reliability and performance continue to set the standard for mobile crushing solutions.
