Next-level technology for enhanced operator enablement

We’ve reimagined the operator environment and added our latest smart tech for an excavator built to help unleash the full potential of human and machine on every shift. The PC220LCi-12 was engineered with the goal of creating the most comfortable, advanced, customizable, and efficient working environment in a Komatsu excavator. Additionally, the PC220LCI-12 incorporates Komatsu’s latest IMC 3.0 smart technology, as well as advanced payload and machine swinging automation.

  • Up to an 18% increase in workload productivity in the new P plus mode
  • Up to an 8% increase in digging force and up to a 7% increase in overall lifting capacity
  • 3D boundary control factory-integrated technology is a unique feature and the first in the construction industry
  • The cab is 28% larger with 30% more legroom and 50% improved visibility*
  • New multi-function, comfortable operator seat with heating and air suspension
  • Up to a 20% reduction in fuel and diesel exhaust fluid costs*

Note: *All percentage claims are based on a comparison to the previous PC210LC-11 model. Cost reductions are achieved through a new electronically controlled hydraulic system and a high-output engine.

Features and benefits

Updated cab design

Updated cab design

This new cab design enhances operator comfort and visibility, helping to maintain productivity during long shifts. Improved legroom and visibility (compared to the PC210LC-11).

Intuitive and customizable cab monitor

Intuitive and customizable cab monitor

A clear interface, combined with high-definition visuals, provides an intuitive, user-friendly, and customizable experience for the operator. Joystick controls are also customizable.

Air-suspension multi-function seat

Air-suspension multi-function seat

Komatsu has improved the operator experience and comfort with upgraded seats. The most innovative seat has variable heat/cool settings and is adjustable to a maximum of 60 mm across six levels. The premium seat also features shock absorption providing additional comfort. The air suspension feature can be adjusted to a maximum height of 80 mm, with no level intervals.
