Dozer D71PXi Cartersville GA Qube 201104 3K1A2087

Taking one of the industry’s most capable and reliable dozers to the next level involves making it smart. The latest addition to the sector is the intelligent HST dozer with a distinctive slant-nosed design, showcasing cutting-edge IMC 2.0 capabilities. Notably, it introduces patent-pending proactive dozing control, enabling automatic operation 100% of the time.

  • IMC 2.0 Productivity Boost: Integrated with IMC 2.0 features, this dozer is geared towards increasing productivity. The intelligent machine control system ensures precision and efficiency in every dozing operation.
  • Optimized Ground Pressure: With a lower ground pressure compared to the D71EX, this dozer excels in maintaining stability and maneuverability even in challenging terrains. The reduced ground pressure minimizes environmental impact while enhancing overall performance.
  • HST Drive for Speed and Responsiveness: The dozer incorporates a fast travel and steering response, thanks to its Hydrostatic Transmission (HST) drive. This feature not only improves operational speed but also enhances maneuvering capabilities for increased efficiency.

Product Features and benefits:

The information you provided seems to be about advanced features and technologies related to intelligent machine control (IMC) for dozers, particularly focusing on Komatsu dozers like the D71i and D51PXi series. Here’s a summary of the key points:

  1. Proactive Dozing Control:
    • The dozer measures the terrain it tracks over and uses the data to plan the next pass.
    • Can automatically cut/strip from existing terrain.
    • Improves productivity by up to 60% compared to the previous generation.
  2. Lift Layer Control:
    • Allows operators to spread fill from existing terrain with the press of a button.
    • Measures the terrain to plan the next pass.
    • Can double production and achieve consistent layers for compaction quality.
  3. Tilt Steering Control:
    • Automatically tilts the blade to maintain straight travel during rough dozing.
    • Reduces operator steering input by up to 80%.
  4. Quick Surface Creation:
    • Operators can create a temporary design surface with the press of a button.
    • Combined with other IMC 2.0 functions for automated stripping or spreading.
  5. Machine Logic and Learning:
    • The dozer continuously learns the terrain, making calculated decisions for the next pass.
    • Helps bridge the skill gap between new and experienced operators.
  6. Advanced Machine Control:
    • In select situations like auto-stripping, rough dozing, spreading, and advanced finish grading, operators can opt for nearly 100% machine control auto usage.
    • Automatic control can be applied without having a 3D model.
  7. Adaptive Learning from Operators:
    • Automatic functions allow the dozer to learn from the operator’s blade input.
    • Enhances adaptability, eases operation, and reduces reliance on operator input.
  8. Outstanding Blade Response for Finish Grading:
    • IMC enables the dozer to look ahead at grade transitions and alter the blade angle accordingly.
    • Aims to deliver unparalleled grading performance.
