The Museum of CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT

2010 OPEN

As use of ICT for construction equipment became more common, things like crewless dump trucks, IT execution, and KOMTRAX were further developed. Hybrid equipment that decreased both fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emission was introduced and marked a new generation of construction machines.

Komatsu iMC hydraulic excavator PC300i/PC300LCi-11

Complies with the standards of the 2014 Non-Road Regulations.

A state-of-the-art hydraulic excavator that comes standard with a new generation engine that conforms to the emissions regulations based on the 2014 standards of the Act on Regulations for Emissions from Non-Road Vehicles, KomVision (ambient monitoring system around the machine), auto idle-stop function, and an automatic lock function for the lock lever.

Equipped with the world's first Intelligent Machine Control technology developed by Komatsu, which controls the work machine (boom and arm) operation without scratching the design surfaces, while checking the position of the bucket blade edge obtained from GNSS (GPS + GLONASS) antenna and GNSS corrective information against the construction design data. When the edge of the blade on the bucket reaches the design surface, the machine will automatically stop. In addition, because the edge of the blade moves along the design surface using the assist function, the operator can perform his excavation work without having to worry about excessive digging. Contributes to improving efficiency of construction work by significantly reducing work processes including the tightening and inspection. In addition, reducing the number of workers assisting the work around the machine improves safety in the work sites. Furthermore, a stereo camera is equipped as a standard feature, which provides useful information for daily construction management through current surveying and 3D data integration in conjunction with the cloud-based platform "KomConnect".

In order to improve safety, KomVision (ambient monitoring system for general construction machinery), an automatic lock function for the lock lever, the secondary engine stop switch, and large handrails to prevent falling are newly adopted.

Hydraulic excavator OPEN

Since its first emergence in 1951, it took only 50 years for the hydraulic shovel to establish its primary position on construction sites worldwide. Its size ranges from mini to super size depending on the scale of construction, and during the half century, it kept evolving by achieving a minimum rear-swing radius and adapting styles that would work with characteristics of each site. Mirroring the movement of a human hand, a hydraulic shovel will continue to evolve during the 21st century.
