Monitoring Efficiency with Payload Data: The Payload Meter IV is instrumental in boosting production by optimizing payload, maximizing cycle efficiency, and reducing the life cycle costs of your machine. Standard on Komatsu off-highway trucks, PLM IV tracks carry weight, haul cycles, speed data, and more.
Traction Control for Firmer Footing: Ensure your drivers stay on task and operate efficiently, even in slippery conditions. Wheel traction control technology detects and corrects wheel spin or slide events, operating automatically and independently of the service brakes.
Advantages of Electric Drive: Electric drive offers numerous benefits, including fewer mechanical components and less maintenance, improving truck availability and lowering life cycle costs. With the Tier 4 certified diesel engine, electric drive also keeps fuel use low, contributing to a smaller carbon footprint.
Controls Enhancing Driver Awareness: Cruise control governs both acceleration and deceleration, allowing operators to focus on steering and situational awareness while maintaining a constant speed. Simple automotive-style controls enable drivers to “set it and forget it.”
Customized for Your Operation: Each truck body is meticulously engineered to meet specific application requirements while carrying its rated payload. Collaboration with you helps understand the material properties at your mine site, identifying the appropriate liner package.
Structurally Enhanced Frame: Durability is paramount when cycling through significant loads. The truck’s frame, created using advanced computer-aided design, finite element analysis, and full-scale dynamic testing, is verified to carry the rated payload with utmost structural reliability.
Promoting a Safe Work Site: Multiple technologies, including traction and cruise controls, along with KomVision—an optional monitoring system with six cameras and eight radars—aid operators in maintaining a safe working environment, providing a 360-degree view around the truck.
Fuel-Reducing Technologies: Efficient power usage and minimized fuel consumption are achieved by tuning the engine and drive systems of Komatsu trucks together. Optimized air handling, along with other technologies, ensures prolonged engine life with less fuel usage.
Modular Design for Increased Uptime: Elegant and modular design principles throughout the truck facilitate quick repair and replacement of major powertrain and hydraulic parts, ensuring routine maintenance is fast and easy, ultimately maximizing uptime.
