The 628kW PC900LC-11 offers major design enhancements compared to the earlier PC800LC-8 model.

The company said that it adds up to a 40% increase in productivity with 25% more arm crowd force and 12% more swing torque.

Putting this all together means that the PC900LC-11 excavator is a versatile machine for heavy construction, demolition, material handling, deep sewer, water, large mass excavation as well as mining and quarrying, says the giant Japanese manufacturer.

A new removable counterweight system makes transportation easier, and the boom configuration reduces transport height. A new service pass through area allows easy access to filters, oil level checks and sample ports.

To boost situational awareness for operators, tools such as the 360-degree KomVision six-camera monitoring system is standard on the PC900LC-11. Smart Construction 3D guidance and payload monitoring are available as options.

The PC900LC-11 also offers users “Smart Construction Retrofit,” what Komatsu describes as an affordable guidance kit that gives operators in the field and managers in the office access to both 2D and 3D design and payload data to help drive accuracy, control load volumes and improve operations.

Easily installed by a local Komatsu distributor, this technology upgrade is designed to improve grading performance and help drive productivity and profitability.
