Ensure the cleanliness of blasting, loading, and dump areas or the construction and maintenance of haul roads with dozers that directly enhance your fleet’s productivity. Komatsu mining dozers, equipped with new mainframes boasting twice the design life compared to previous models, are engineered for power and durability.

  • Up to 18% productivity increase over previous models
  • Over 20% more engine power in the reverse direction versus forward direction
  • 10% reduction in fuel consumption with automatic transmission with lockup torque converter compared to operation in manual gearshift mode

Product Features and benefits:

Lockup Torque Converter

Engineered for exceptional production, Komatsu’s lockup torque converter ensures an efficient transfer of power to the driveline. This design aims to decrease cycle times and boost overall production.

 

Low Undercarriage Design

The dozer is equipped with a low drive undercarriage, strategically designed to minimize wear and tear on the machine. Despite the reduced height, it maintains comfort and stability, featuring minimal moving parts to sustain high traction and production levels during dozing and ripping operations.

Structural Improvements

The D375A-8 boasts a more reliable mainframe with twice the design life compared to previous models. This enhancement is engineered to reduce maintenance costs and decrease machine downtime, contributing to improved overall efficiency.

Blade Auto-Pitch

Designed to enhance dozing efficiency and reduce operator efforts, the blade auto-pitch mode is a thoughtful feature that optimizes the dozing process, increasing overall productivity.

Ripper Auto-Return

The ergonomic ripper control lever incorporates an auto-return function. This design reduces operator fatigue by automatically raising the ripper after momentary actuation of the control lever while the machine is in reverse.

Track Shoe Slip Control

The track shoe slip control feature automatically manages engine speed, minimizing slip during ripping operations. This functionality is designed to enhance operational efficiency and reduce the workload on the operator.

Operator Comfort

The dozer prioritizes operator comfort and productivity with thoughtful design enhancements. These include an upgraded cab suspension and palm control joysticks, aiming to create a more ergonomic and user-friendly operating environment.

Single Blade Linkage

Featuring an all-new blade support structure, the dozer significantly reduces blade side sway. This new support structure also minimizes maintenance points while providing enhanced visibility compared to previous models.

 

Maintenance Features

Engineered to minimize planned downtime, the D375A-8 incorporates maintenance-friendly features. Centralized greasing points, a ground-level fill/evac service center, and battery and starter isolators with lockout tagout functionality contribute to efficient and streamlined maintenance processes.
