Komatsu hybrid excavators

At Komatsu we understand the importance of keeping operating costs low – and that’s one of the reason we lead the industry in developing highly fuel-efficient hybrid excavators. With fuel consumption on a hybrid as much as 40% lower than a same-sized conventional Komatsu excavator, that’s a real saving for contractors – while maintaining the reliability and production standards which owners have come to expect from our diggers.

The heart of our hybrid system is an “ultra-capacitor” linked to the swing circuit, and which has shown itself to be safe and reliable across millions of hours of operations around the world.
