Three new models offer higher performance and lower operational and maintenance costs than their predecessors — most notably through the use of repairable components.
Montabert has introduced its upgraded line of variable-speed breakers. Three new models offer higher performance and lower operational and maintenance costs than their predecessors — most notably through the use of repairable components.
All models have undergone a complete redesign in the Montabert welding and prototyping workshop, which was established in Saint-Priest, France, in 2021. The new breaker housings provide enhanced ergonomics, increased safety and greater durability.
Named for their automatic variable-speed technology, Montabert variable-speed breakers are built for use in the harshest conditions, as they sense changes in material hardness and adjust the breaker’s impact energy and striking rate. The result is increased productivity, based on the application, and reduced blank firing.
Montabert’s variable-speed technology also reduces unnecessary harmful energy from transferring to the carrier and breaker, helping to prevent wear on parts and components. These breakers ideally work in tandem with TRAMAC boom systems to productively break oversize rocks prior to primary crushing.
The new lineup includes:
V47 (replaces the V45 and V46)
- Carrier Weight: 30-44 tons (27-40 metric tons)
- Service Weight: 6,027 lbs. (2,734 kg)
- Striking Frequency: 345-1,160 bpm
- Tool Diameter: 5.9 in. (150 mm)
- Hydraulic Accumulator: Eliminates the need for onsite nitrogen checks or refills.
- TPS System: Increases tool lifespan.
- Automatic Energy Adjustment: Breaker autonomously adjusts its striking energy based on material hardness.
- For the Operator: Protection against blank firing, automatic lubrication system, energy recovery system, easy maintenance.
- For the Carrier: Anti-vibration dampeners, elimination of pressure spikes.
- Next-Generation Cradle: Safer, more ergonomic, quieter, more durable.
V57 (replaces the V55 and V56)
- Carrier Weight: 39-66 tons (35-60 metric tons)
- Service Weight: 7,921 lbs. (3,593 kg)
- Striking Frequency: 330-1,045 bpm
- Tool Diameter: 6.7 in. (170 mm)
- Hydraulic Accumulator: Eliminates the need for onsite nitrogen checks or refills.
- TPS System: Increases tool lifespan.
- Automatic Energy Adjustment: Breaker autonomously adjusts its striking energy based on material hardness.
- Cylinder Sleeve: Reduced maintenance costs and improved piston guidance efficiency
- For the Operator: Protection against blank firing, automatic lubrication system, energy recovery system, easy maintenance.

- Tool Diameter: 8 in. (202 mm)
- Hydraulic Accumulator: Eliminates the need for onsite nitrogen checks or refills.
- TPS System: Increases tool lifespan.
- Dual Lubrication System: Two independent circuits separately lubricate the lower and upper bushings, ensuring improved consumption and optimal lubrication.
- Automatic Energy Adjustment: Breaker autonomously adjusts its striking energy based on material hardness.
- For the Operator: Protection against blank firing, automatic lubrication system, energy recovery system, easy maintenance.
- For the Carrier: Anti-vibration dampeners, elimination of pressure spikes.
- Next-Generation Cradle: Safer, more ergonomic, quieter, more durable.
