Mobile crushing closes the gap between where the blast leaves the material and where the processing circuit expects it to arrive. The Metso Lokotrack LT120 is a track-mounted primary mobile jaw crusher whose crushing unit is the Nordberg C120 jaw, giving the LT120 a feed opening that handles large run-of-mine material while the machine's crawler undercarriage allows it to follow the blast face across a pit bench without requiring road construction for access. For quarry operators, contract crushers, and small-to-mid-scale mining operations where fixed plant infrastructure is cost-prohibitive, the LT120 delivers primary crushing mobility that changes the operational math entirely.
Financing an LT120 is different from financing a fixed crusher installation in one important way: the machine moves, and a machine that moves generates revenue at multiple sites. Contract crushing businesses, pit-to-plant aggregate operators, and quarry developers who open new sites on a project basis all benefit from financing structures that recognize the LT120's earning capacity across locations rather than its contribution to a single fixed-plant investment. We finance new LT120s, quality used units with documented hourly records, and rebuilt machines with recent undercarriage and jaw maintenance histories.
The LT120 Platform: What the Machine Does on Site
The LT120 hosts the C120 jaw crusher unit on a self-contained crawler platform with an onboard power unit, a vibrating grizzly feeder ahead of the jaw, and a main conveyor that discharges the primary crushed product for belt transfer or load-out. The grizzly prescreens undersize material around the jaw to increase throughput and reduce wear on the crusher liners. The crawler undercarriage allows repositioning within a pit without transport logistics that a wheeled or fixed crusher would require.
In large quarry operations, the LT120 is often paired with a secondary cone crusher, such as a tracked HP Series unit, to produce finished aggregate in a two-stage mobile train. In smaller mining operations, the LT120's primary crushed product may feed directly into an ore processing circuit. The machine's production capacity in tonnes per hour varies with rock hardness and required closed-side setting but at typical aggregate specifications the LT120 delivers primary crushing throughput that supports a medium-scale operation without fixed plant capital expenditure.
For operations also running fixed jaw capacity, understanding the differences betweenjaw crusher financingfor fixed installations versus mobile tracked units helps clarify which financing structure is most appropriate. Mobile tracked crushers typically carry slightly different depreciation curves than fixed machines because their mobility component retains value differently in the secondary market.
What Qualifies for LT120 Financing
The LT120 qualifies for financing in good operational condition. For used machines, the key inspection points are the crusher liners and jaw plates (consumable components that are easily replaced), the condition of the crawler undercarriage pads and track tensioners, and the hours and service history on the main powerpack. A machine with high total hours but a recent complete undercarriage replacement and jaw rebuild is a strong candidate. One with low hours but long idle periods without maintenance records is a harder story to tell.
Credit review follows the same approach we take across all our mining equipment financing: B and C credit receives individual review rather than an automated decision. For the LT120, the key credit question is revenue: contract crushing operations with documented project pipelines and aggregate producers with active quarry permits both have clear revenue visibility that supports even imperfect credit files.Mining equipment loansand lease structures are both available, and we present both options so you can decide which fits your tax and cash flow situation.
For operators in active quarry markets like Tennessee's crushed stone districts and the aggregate production zones aroundKnoxville, TN, or in the mobile crushing markets serving highway construction inDenver, CO, we understand the project-based revenue cycle that drives mobile crusher acquisitions. Financing structures that align payment timing with project cash flow are worth discussing if your business runs on project-specific billing cycles.
Complementary Equipment and Financing
Mobile crushing operations typically run a primary crusher alongside secondary and screening equipment. Financing the LT120 alongside a tracked cone and a screening unit as a complete mobile crushing train is a common transaction structure that simplifies the deal administration. We handle multi-unit mobile crushing packages as single facilities or coordinated individual lines depending on your preference.
TheMetso HP500 cone crusherin a tracked or skid-mounted configuration is the natural downstream partner for the LT120 in a two-stage mobile train. If you are building out a complete circuit, we can structure financing for both pieces simultaneously. For operators comparing the LT120 againstother mobile crusher optionsin Metso's or competitors' lines, we can run comparable term sheets on different models so you have the full capital cost picture before deciding on the machine.
Operators considering theTerex Finlay J-1175as an alternative primary mobile jaw should know that both machines finance similarly in terms of process and qualification standards. We work with both brands and do not favor either in how we structure deals.
