Features and benefits

State-of-the-art engine

The PC160LC-8 is equipped with the Komatsu SAA4D107E-1 engine, a turbocharged, air-to-air aftercooled engine that delivers 90 kW (121 HP) of power at 2,200 rpm. This engine represents a significant advancement over conventional equipment.

Ergonomic and functional cab

The combination of a raised cab and a highly rigid chassis helps reduce transmitted vibration, creating a more comfortable and safer working environment—a particularly important factor for long-duration operations.

ECO function

The PC160LC-8 features an eco-gauge integrated into the monitor—visible on the right side of the screen—that promotes sustainable and economical operations.

Komtrax system

One of the most important differentiators for forest managers is the Komtrax system, which provides detailed operational reports based on crucial data such as: Fuel consumption, Load map, Idle time. This system transforms operational data into business intelligence, enabling more efficient management and cost reduction.

7-inch color TFT monitor

The operator interface has been modernized with a 7-inch wide-screen color TFT LCD monitor, setting a new digital standard in this category.

Five optimized operating modes

Each mode automatically adjusts engine speed, pump flow, and system pressure according to the specific demands of the task, maximizing efficiency and reducing wear.

HydrauMind hydraulic system

Closed-center technology system that integrates load-sensing valves—which continuously monitor operating conditions—as well as pressure-compensating valves that ensure precise control in any situation.

Safety and compliance

The equipment incorporates integrated forestry protection features and fully complies with NR-12 standards, including thermal guards for the engine and fan, high-temperature protection devices, and various customization options—such as protection for the engine, cab, undercarriage, and idlers. These features reinforce Komatsu's commitment to operational safety.

Reinforced structure

The structure of the PC160LC-8 was developed with a robust X-frame chassis, offering high rigidity, reduced vibration, and greater durability. Their sealed, box-section tracks protect against debris and moisture, while hydraulic adjusters facilitate maintenance and extend service life.

Undercarriage

The undercarriage, consisting of 7 bottom rollers, 2 top rollers per side, and a total of 44 track shoes, ensures reliable performance even on challenging forest terrain.

PC160 log loader

Much more than just timber loading equipment. It is a comprehensive solution that integrates cutting-edge technology, operational comfort, safety, environmental efficiency, and intelligent fleet management.
