Tiivistelmä
This thesis is done for Oy Atlas Copco Louhintatekniikka Ab. Atlas Copco group acquired Hartl Powercrushers and now it is known as Atlas Copco Powercrushers. With this takeover Atlas Copco Surface Drilling Equipment division adds mobile crushers and screeners to the Surface Drilling Equipment range and the Atlas Copco’s customers will gain more business possibilities. The main objective of this thesis is to examine the current situation and the future trends of the Finnish mobile stone crusher and screener markets. Also, the environmental and R&D issues are quite strongly visible within the questionnaire and the survey.
The research was carried out as an e-mail survey, which was sent to the companies in the Finnish stone crushing industry. The answers were processed and analyzed with the Micro-soft Excel program.
According to the answers, the stone crusher business is dominated strongly by Metso Minerals. Other formidable competitors are Sandvik and a foreign manufacturer Terex. The Finnish stone crushing industry strongly values strongly domestic products. The attitude towards to a new competitor is mainly good and the customers appreciate competition, be-cause they consider prices to be too high and feel a need for more competition.
