NMS Launches Three New Products at Mining Conference, Accelerates Full-Process Solution Provider Transformation

Record-Breaking Mining Event Sets the Stage for Strategic Transformation

The 28th China International Mining Conference and Exhibition, held from September 10 to 12, 2026, in Tianjin, brought together global mining leaders under the theme “Win-Win Cooperation, Green and Intelligent.” With an exhibition area of 65,000 square metres and 658 companies from 25 countries, the event served as a platform for major equipment manufacturers to unveil their latest technological breakthroughs. NMS (Nanchang Mineral Systems), a leading Chinese manufacturer of crushing and screening equipment, used the occasion to launch three significant new products—the GVTM vertical spiral stirred mill, the HGR high pressure grinding rolls, and the MES series box-type elliptical screen—alongside its intelligent operations and maintenance platform. The launches mark a decisive strategic shift: NMS is no longer simply a manufacturer of individual machines. It is positioning itself as a global mineral processing solutions provider, accountable for the performance and economic outcomes of the entire processing flowsheet. While such comprehensive product matrices represent significant engineering depth, OCP Mechanical Company recognises that not every operation requires the scale or investment associated with these large-scale systems. With over 40 years of manufacturing experience, we offer practical, cost-effective crushing solutions tailored to medium-capacity operations, backed by factory-direct pricing and round-the-clock technical support.

CC Series and MC1000 Cone Crushers: Breaking Import Monopolies in High-End Crushing

At the heart of NMS’s showcase were two cone crusher series that directly challenge the dominance of international brands in high-end mineral processing. The CC series intelligent single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher is engineered based on the laminated crushing principle, delivering large processing capacity, high crushing efficiency, and low energy consumption. The flagship CC800 model features a main motor power of 750 kW, a maximum feed size of 428 mm, and single-unit processing capacity exceeding 1,000 tonnes per hour in medium crushing applications. The equipment incorporates a six-channel independent dustproof technology that extends lubricating oil life, and a next-generation overload protection system that reacts faster and with stronger overload capacity to handle complex working conditions. The MC1000 large-scale multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher is designed for fine and ultra-fine crushing, featuring a multi-point support and split structure, high cavity compaction, and uniform cubic product shape. Leveraging its solid R&D foundation, NMS has successfully launched a new generation of large-scale products including the CC1000 large single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher and the MC1000 large multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher, which support the industry‘s transition toward larger-scale, high-end, and intelligent mining equipment. These products have already demonstrated their capability at major projects, with a recent RMB 296 million contract to supply nearly 100 units of high-end crushing and screening equipment to Inner Mongolia Damo Mining—a project that previously sourced its core equipment exclusively from international brands.

GVTM Vertical Spiral Stirred Mill: 45% Energy Savings in Fine Grinding

The GVTM vertical spiral stirred mill represents NMS’s entry into the fine and ultra-fine grinding segment, filling a critical gap in its mineral processing product chain. Compared with conventional fine grinding processes, the GVTM system delivers 45% energy savings—a substantial reduction that directly addresses the mining industry‘s most energy-intensive operation. In a typical mining plant, 30% to 50% of total electricity consumption is attributed to crushing and grinding, with grinding being the dominant energy consumer. The mill’s compact design also reduces footprint by at least 75%, making it suitable for brownfield installations where space is constrained. The GVTM enables efficient particle size reduction to 1 micron or finer, making it suitable for applications in non-metallic minerals such as calcium carbonate, kaolin, mica, talc, and graphite. By entering the fine grinding segment, NMS is positioning itself to support the industry‘s shift toward “more crushing, less grinding”—a principle that reduces overall circuit energy consumption by transferring crushing load from lower-efficiency mills to higher-efficiency crushers. OCP Mechanical Company‘s VSI crushers and impact crushers are engineered to deliver the precise product sizing that minimises downstream grinding loads, with configurations matched to your specific ore characteristics.

HGR High Pressure Grinding Rolls: 15–20% Energy Savings in Ultra-Fine Crushing

The HGR high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) extend NMS‘s product line into efficient ultra-fine crushing applications. Compared with traditional dual-motor drive systems, the HGR delivers 15% to 20% energy savings, achieved through optimised roller design and improved transmission efficiency. The HGR is engineered to process feed sizes ranging from 0 to 40 mm with a throughput capacity of 680 to 850 tonnes per hour, making it suitable for large-scale metal mining operations. By reducing ore particle size before it enters the grinding circuit, the HGR enables the “more crushing, less grinding” principle, which lowers the Bond Work Index of downstream mill feed by 15% to 20% and significantly reduces overall circuit energy consumption. The HGR also features a clamp-type design with a patented quick-release mechanism for roller frame separation and engagement, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime. For operators evaluating crushing circuits for hard rock mining, the HGR represents a practical solution for achieving higher throughput with lower energy consumption. OCP Mechanical Company supplies jaw crushers, cone crushers, and complete crushing and screening plants engineered for the demands of metal mining operations, with hydraulic adjustment systems that simplify CSS changes and high-manganese steel wear components that extend service life.

MES Box-Type Elliptical Screen: 20% Higher Throughput in Screening

The MES series box-type elliptical screen completes NMS’s new product launch, enhancing large-capacity screening performance with 20% higher throughput compared to traditional banana screens. The elliptical motion combines the advantages of circular and linear vibration screens, producing an ideal elliptical trajectory that improves material stratification and reduces screen blinding. The box-type vibrator design delivers high excitation force with excellent sealing performance, eliminating gear maintenance requirements and reducing noise levels. The MES screen is particularly well suited for large-scale mineral processing operations where consistent, high-capacity classification is essential. It addresses a common pain point in high-tonnage circuits: traditional screens struggling to maintain efficiency as feed rates increase, leading to recirculating loads and reduced plant throughput. For operators in aggregate production and metal mining, the MES screen represents a meaningful improvement in screening efficiency. OCP Mechanical Company supplies vibrating screens in single, double, and triple-deck configurations, along with complete screening plants engineered for high-capacity classification across multiple product fractions.

Intelligent O&M: Raising OEE from 65–70% to Over 80%

Alongside the three product launches, NMS introduced its intelligent O&M solution, targeting a significant improvement in equipment effectiveness and maintenance efficiency. The industry-average Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) for mining equipment typically ranges from 65% to 70%. NMS aims to raise this to over 80% through its intelligent O&M platform, while reducing maintenance costs by 25%. The system integrates 5G and IoT technologies to transmit equipment operating parameters in real time, enabling predictive maintenance that reduces unplanned downtime and extends component life. By monitoring equipment health and predicting the remaining service life of wear parts, the platform enables a shift from reactive maintenance to proactive prevention. The system has been deployed at Benxi Steel‘s concentrator plant, covering 13 key pieces of equipment including cone crushers, banana screens, fine screens, and apron feeders. Field results have demonstrated equipment utilisation exceeding 92% and equipment failure rates below 3% , with wear part service life extended by more than 50%. The intelligent O&M system covers the full equipment lifecycle, with operation and maintenance costs accounting for up to 80% of total lifecycle cost in mining equipment. OCP Mechanical Company’s equipment is engineered for compatibility with modern monitoring and control systems, with optional packages that provide real-time performance data for predictive maintenance and process optimisation.

From Equipment Manufacturer to Full-Process Solution Provider: The Strategic Logic

NMS‘s transformation is guided by its “Three Transformations and One Optimization” strategy—shifting focus toward metal mining, overseas markets, and the aftermarket, while optimising its traditional aggregates business. The company has established R&D centres in Sweden, Beijing, Shanghai, Nanchang, and Changsha, and has been granted more than 500 patents. It has participated in the formulation of dozens of national and industry standards. This strategic direction reflects a broader industry trend: the days of selling individual machines are giving way to a procurement model where complete-line performance is the metric that matters. For quarry operators and mining companies, this shift brings both opportunity and complexity: more choices, but also the need to evaluate total system performance rather than individual machine specifications. As NMS Vice Chairman and Executive Vice President Gong Youliang noted, the company is committed to providing mining enterprises with integrated solutions covering process selection, complete equipment supply, and intelligent O&M.
