are designed to deliver consistent performance across a wide range of applications. Whether you are producing base material, asphalt aggregate, manufactured sand, or concrete stone, the GP Series offers the flexibility and reliability needed to keep your operation running efficiently.

Excellent Versatility

One of the biggest advantages of the Metso GP Series is its ability to handle a wide range of applications and feed materials. GP cone crushers can be used in secondary, tertiary, and quaternary crushing stages, making them a flexible option for many different plant configurations.

Their adjustable stroke and multiple cavity options allow producers to fine-tune performance based on the desired product size and production goals. This flexibility helps operators achieve the right balance between capacity, reduction, and product shape.

Consistent Product Shape

Producing a high-quality end product is critical for many operations, especially when supplying asphalt, concrete, and road base materials. Metso GP Series crushers are known for delivering a consistent, cubical product shape.

A well-shaped product can improve downstream screening efficiency, reduce recirculating loads, and help producers meet demanding specifications for finished materials.

Efficient Performance and Lower Operating Costs

is designed for efficient crushing action, helping producers maximize throughput while controlling energy consumption. Their robust design and optimized crushing chamber geometry allow operators to process material effectively without unnecessary wear.

Because of their efficient design, GP cone crushers can often reduce operating costs through:

• Lower energy consumption
• Reduced liner wear
• Improved throughput
• Less downtime for maintenance
• Better overall plant efficiency

These savings can make a significant difference over the life of the machine.

Easy Maintenance

Maintenance is a major factor in keeping a crushing operation productive. Metso GP Series cone crushers are designed with serviceability in mind, offering features that make maintenance safer and easier.

Simple access to components, fewer service points, and durable wear parts help reduce downtime and make routine maintenance more manageable for operators and maintenance teams.

Reliable in Tough Conditions

Aggregate and mining operations demand equipment that can perform day after day in harsh environments. Metso GP Series cone crushers are built with durability and reliability in mind, allowing producers to confidently operate in demanding conditions.

Their proven track record across a variety of applications makes them a trusted choice for producers looking for dependable performance and long-term value.

Time was critical. With production halted and material piling up, they reached out to Mellott for help and our team immediately sprung into action.

Friday
Our team received the call asking if we had an Omnicone 1560 available. The customer’s crusher had gone down, and they needed a replacement fast.

Monday
We confirmed a solution:  Assembling a Omnicone 1560 using our in-stock inventory of parts at our Warfordsburg, PA facility.

Tuesday
Our talented technicians built the unit, completed no-load testing on our , and had it ready to ship–all within 4 days of receiving the call.  The rebuilt Omnicone 1560 was transported to the customer’s site, arriving that same evening.

Wednesday
Installation began immediately, and by Thursday evening, the unit was back in production, ahead of the customer’s deadline and fully operational.

This project is a tremendous example of the dedication, speed, and teamwork that define Mellott. From parts availability and assembly to testing, delivery, and startup, every department worked together to deliver a solution that minimized downtime and got our customer back to doing what they do best: crushing rock and keeping production moving.

Why Choose Rubber?

While steel liners have long been the industry standard, are proving to be a game changer in the field. Our customers are seeing up to double the wear life compared to traditional steel options. That means fewer changeouts, less downtime, and better long-term value.

Key Benefits:

• Extended Wear Life: Rubber naturally absorbs impact and resists abrasion, allowing these liners to last twice as long in many applications.

• Noise Reduction: The rubber construction significantly dampens noise during operation, creating a quieter and safer environment for your crew.

• Flexible Configuration: Whether you prefer a one-piece or two-piece setup, we have you covered for both 5.5’ and 7’ Symons crushers.

Built for Performance

Our rubber feed cone liners are engineered to handle the demands of tough crushing applications while delivering long-term durability and performance. It’s just another way Mellott is helping our customers get more life from their equipment and improve their bottom line.

But what’s the real cost of downtime, and what can you do to prevent it?

The Hidden Price of a Silent Crusher

When your operation comes to a halt, you’re not just losing tons per hour. You’re also absorbing:

• Labor Costs – Your crew is still on the clock, even if the machine isn’t.

• Missed Production Goals – Lost hours today can set back delivery schedules, customer commitments, and profitability.

• Emergency Repair Premiums – Last-minute fixes are often more expensive than planned maintenance.

• Reputational Damage – Reliability matters. Chronic downtime can hurt customer confidence and contract renewal prospects.

• Parts Delays – If a needed part isn’t in stock, you could be stuck for days waiting on delivery.

Even a few hours of unexpected downtime can translate to thousands—or tens of thousands—of dollars in losses.
