Metso to significantly increase manufacturing capacity in Alwar， India

Metso has extended its manufacturing capacity of mobile track-mounted crushing and screening equipment in the Indian city of Alwar with the opening of new manufacturing facilities.

The manufacturer says the extended facilities will help it capitalise on market opportunities for its quarrying equipment across India， south-east Asia， the Middle East and southern Africa.

Following the extension， the total size of the Alwar factory will be approximately 340，000 square metres， adding 35% more capacity to the factory.

Markku Simula， president of the aggregates business area of Metso， says the Alwar site in the state of Rajasthan has had several extensions since it initially opened in 2008， with the latest being the largest yet， increasing the size of the factory by about one third and making it the company's largest manufacturing facility.

He added that the new extension will focus entirely on producing mobile track-mounted crushing and screening machines from several Metso Group brands. In addition to the mobile Metso Lokotrack equipment， the increased capacity will be used to manufacture mobile McCloskey and Tesab equipment. At the same site， Metso also produces wear parts and pumps for the aggregates and mining industries.

Simula says that India， south-east Asia and the Middle East represent "tremendous growth markets" for Metso.

"If you look at our aggregates business globally， we are extremely strong in North America and Europe，" he added. "Where we see the future growth opportunities is the eastern hemisphere. The countries that are most vibrant right now are India and Saudi Arabia. There is a lot of activity in quarrying in India. The Indian domestic [crushing and screening quarrying equipment] market is very competitive. We are by far the number one international player in India and the second largest overall after one of the domestic players."

Simula says particular opportunities in India come from the Indian government's plans to increase highway construction in the country from 39km per day to 60km per day.

Metso's NW Rapid range of portable wheel-mounted crushing machines， which can be set up very quickly， was developed to meet the needs of the Indian quarrying sector.

The Alwar factory now employs approximately 1，300 people in total. The official opening of the new facilities took place on September 19， 2023， and Metso says that production ramp-up to reach full capacity will continue until the end of the year.

Currently， 38% of the Alwar plant's output is for the Indian domestic market with 62% being exported to 80 different countries.

The new factory showcases the most modern manufacturing practices， hosting several sustainability-driven functions like automated warehousing， automated assembly lines， modern painting lines and 13，000 solar panels installed to enable the increased energy production. After the extension， solar energy covers 85% of Alwar’s total power generation， which is maximum permitted as per state government guidelines.

“With the increased manufacturing capacity， Alwar becomes the major Metso site for increased domestic business in India and exports to Metso’s customers globally，" Simula says. "Additionally， significant investment has been made in engineering and R&D resources， making it one of our key global engineering hubs.”

The expanded engineering centre at Alwar now has around 100 engineers and Simula says it will play an important role in product development for the company.

Simula adds that there are also major opportunities for Metso's business in Saudi Arabia from a number of huge projects such as The Line linear smart city that is under construction in Tabuk Province. The 170km-long city is part of the Saudi Vision 2030 project to diversify the country away from its current dependence on oil production.

Aggregate Industries 在欧洲部署首台全电动柳工轮式装载机，柳工第一台全电动856HE轮式装载机在欧洲部署

作为其零净承诺的一部分，总部位于英国的Aggregate Industries公司部署了其第一台电动装载铲斗。

柳工856HE轮式装载机目前在位于伦敦东部Bow区域的Aggregate Industries London混凝土工厂运行。856HE据称是世界上第一台商用电池电动装载机，也是柳工在欧洲供应的第一台全电动轮式装载机。

柳工机械轮式装载机系列欧洲产品经理Oliver Keates表示，迄今为止，中国已部署了2000多台类似的柳工电动轮式装载机。

他在谈到856HE装载机时补充道：“该机器适用于一系列功能，包括采石应用、配料厂、材料回收和料斗装载。”

在Bow站点，856HE 装载铲将用于从工地铁路终点装载骨料，还将用于伦敦混凝土预拌混凝土工厂，以保持工地整洁并管理库存。

该车重21000公斤，配备423kWh磷酸铁锂电池，具有1.7小时快速充电能力。该机配备160kw发动机，铲斗容量3.5m3，充满电可作业11小时以上。使用Bow站点的Kempower提供的充电器，该机器可以在大约45分钟内从20%充电到 95%。最重要的是，它具有零燃料，零排放，噪音和振动低的特点。

它与今年早些时候在 Bow 部署的伦敦第一辆全电动预拌混凝土搅拌车 (26 吨雷诺卡车E-Tech D Wide) 一起部署。车队和工厂的电气化是 Aggregate Industries 在2050年之前实现净零排放的更广泛方法的核心部分。Aggregate Industries 可持续发展总监 Kirstin McCarthy 表示：“我们很高兴与柳工合作，我们是欧洲第一个将部署这款全电动汽车的客户。”

“我们与制造商密切合作，以获得正确的规格和测试，它通常可以在充满电的情况下提供 10-11 小时的班次，这将成为我们运营的真正资产。对于如何在 2050 年之前实现零排放，Aggregate Industries 有明确的前进方向，作为一家拥有大量车辆并消耗大量燃料的企业，我们车队的电气化是整体战略的关键部分。”

“从小的变化出发，然后加快步伐，随着我们转向低碳或零碳燃料或能源，我们将在 2023 年剩余时间和 2024 年在整个业务范围内推出更多电动汽车。”

柳工的Keates补充道：“与 Aggregate Industries 的合作帮助柳工可靠地传达了生产力和效率的信息。

“这是柳工自2018年开始的旅程，我们将继续发展和扩大我们的电动车队。现在越来越多的企业可以看到这些机器给企业带来的好处，通过柳工的iLink远程信息处理，企业看到了真正的好处，帮助他们实现了政府设定的宏伟目标。”

第二台柳工856 HE将于今年年底前交付给Aggregate Industries。目前在Bow运行的第一台 856 HE随后将被转移到英国其他Aggregate Industries工厂。

今年5月，Aggregate Industries推出了“净零排放战略”，计划在2050年之前实现零排放。

Aggregate Industries deploys first fully-electric LiuGong wheeled loader in Europe

As part of its commitment to net-zero， UK-based Aggregate Industries has deployed its first electric-powered loading shovel.

The LiuGong 856HE wheeled loader is now operating at the Aggregate Industries London Concrete plant in Bow， East London. The 856HE is claimed to be the world’s first commercially available battery electric loader and is the first fully-electric wheeled loader that LiuGong has supplied in Europe.

Oliver Keates， European product manager for the LiuGong Machinery wheeled loader range， says that more than 2，000 similar LiuGong electric wheeled loaders have so far been deployed in China.

He adds of the 856HE loader："This machine is suitable for a range of functionalities including quarrying applications， batching plants， recycling of materials and hopper loading."

At Bow the 856HE loading shovel will be used to load aggregates from the site’s railhead and will also be used on the London Concrete Readymix plant to keep the site tidy and to manage stockpiles.

The 21，000kg vehicle has a 423kwh lithium iron phosphate battery with a fast charging capability of 1.7 hours. The machine has a 160kw engine and 3.5m3 bucket capacity and can operate for more than 11 hours on full charge. The machine can be charged from 20% to 95% in around 45 minutes， using the Kempower-supplied charger at the Bow site. Most importantly， it uses zero fuel， has zero emissions and produces low noise and vibration.

It joins London’s first all-electric readymix concrete mixer truck at Bow， a 26-tonne Renault Trucks E-Tech D Wide， which was deployed earlier this year. Electrification of the fleet and plant is a central part of Aggregate Industries’ wider approach to reach net zero before 2050. Kirstin McCarthy， Aggregate Industries’ director of sustainability， said：“We are delighted to be working with LiuGong and that we are the first customer in Europe to be deploying this all-electric vehicle.

“We have worked closely with the manufacturers to get the specification and testing right and it is routinely delivering a 10-11 hour shift on full-charge and will be a real asset to our operations.

“Aggregate Industries has a clear direction of travel for how we intend to reach zero-emissions before 2050 and as a business that has a lot of vehicles and burns a lot of fuel， electrification of our fleet is a key part of that overall strategy.

“Change begins small and then gathers pace and we will be rolling out further electric vehicles across the business during the rest of 2023 and 2024 as we move towards low or zero carbon fuels or energy sources.”

LiuGong's Keates added：“Working with Aggregate Industries has helped LiuGong to deliver our message of productivity and efficiency with reliability.

“This is a journey that began in 2018 for LiuGong， and we continue to grow and expand our electric fleet of vehicles. More and more companies can now see the benefits these machines bring to businesses， through LiuGong’s iLink Telematics， companies are seeing real benefits which are helping them achieve the ambitious targets that have been set by the Government.”

A second LiuGong 856 HE is due to be delivered to Aggregate Industries before the end of the year. The first 856 HE that is currently operating at Bow will then be moved around other Aggregate Industries sites in the UK.

In May this year， Aggregate Industries launched its Journey to Net Zero Strategy which laid out how it plans to reach zero emissions before 2050.
