KOMTRAX ™, installed as standard on most Komatsu machines, is an innovative system that allows you to monitor all essential information about your Komatsu equipment directly on your computer. In any country where KOMTRAX ™ transmission is allowed, when the system is activated on a machine, the data is uploaded regularly via satellite or via mobile communication and can be accessed easily through a web browser. A wide variety of parameters is available to precisely state the condition of your KOMTRAX ™ equipped machines. You can optimize your production by increasing efficiency and proactive maintenance. Komtrax ™ is a tool that helps you manage your fleet of Komatsu machines easily and at no cost.

The new hybrid system from Komatsu increases efficiency, the electric motor/generator regenerates energy and the rotation of the upper structure when decelerating is converted into electrical energy. The regenerated energy is stored in the ultra-capacitor and used by the engine/generator to assist the combustion engine, when it needs to accelerate. Thus, the hybrid system reduces fuel consumption very significantly.

The technologies developed over many years and owned by Komatsu, make engines more efficient and with reduced emissions. The Stage V diesel engine reduces particulate emissions by more than 50% and keeps nitrogen oxide (NOx) levels low, when compared to Stage IV levels, while lowering fuel consumption. Through the development of engines, hydraulic units, control systems and specific main components, Komatsu, with its equipment, has achieved exceptional performance and a wide range of operating conditions. Since customers expect top performance and quality from machines, all equipment is designed to meet expectations, with an emphasis on reduced fuel consumption and a lower impact on the environment.

Komatsu CARE ™ is free and standard, on most Komatsu machines with EU Stage IV and V engines. For the first 3 years or 2 000 hours, this program covers factory scheduled maintenance, performed by Komatsu trained technicians, with genuine Komatsu parts. It also offers 2 complementary changes to the Komatsu Diesel Particulate Filter (KDPF), as well as 5 year or 9 000 hour warranty, for the KDPF and the Catalytic Reduction and Selection (SCR) unit.

Komatsu excavators provide the necessary power with reduced fuel consumption. There are 6 working modes available: Power, Elevation / Precision Operation, Hammer, Economy, Attachments in Power mode and Economy mode. The operator achieves an ideal balance between power and economy to perform the required task. The oil flow supplied to the hydraulic attachments is also directly adjustable on the large monitor panel, the best of its kind.

Hybrid components, designed by Komatsu, such as the ultra-capacitor, the electric motor or the rotation generator, among others, have a warranty of 5 years or 10.000 hours.
