Metso Corporation's press release on April 19, 2017 at 2:00 p.m. EEST

For metal recycling companies who operate on many sites or offer scrap processing as a service, time is a vital, but very scarce, resource. It is sometimes the only factor that rules out potential customers - and moving the production equipment faster to remote locations would make all the difference.

The new Metso N-Series Mobile Shear/Baler/Logger (NMS) and N-Series Box Shear (NBS) have been developed with active and mobile scrap processing companies in mind.

'The ever-changing demands of the scrap processing industry require a bigger choice of solutions capable of meeting specific capacity needs. The pioneering N-Series Mobile Shear/Baler/Logger and N-Series Box Shear are our latest offering to support and serve our global customers of all sizes. Being compact and movable, they are especially ideal for small to midsize processors and metal processing in temporary locations,' says Bob Pfeffer, Product Manager, Shears and Balers, North America, Metso.

The Metso N-Series range is fully backed by Metso's worldwide service network. High uptime can be further ensured with local Metso service agreements.

The N-Series Mobile Shear/Baler/Logger (NMS) and N-Series Box Shear (NBS) will be introduced to the public at the ISRI Convention and Exposition: http://bit.ly/2oNxAeR
