Built to empower operators
The PC220LC-12 is designed to empower operators to achieve high productivity on your jobsite while controlling costs. With a strong focus on enhancing the cab, it was engineered with the goal of creating the most comfortable, advanced, customizable and efficient working environment in a Komatsu excavator.
- 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
- The cab is 28% larger with 30% more legroom and 50% improved visibility*
- Large, intuitive and customizable high-definition cab monitor
- 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
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
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
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.
User interface enhancements
Upgraded from the previous model to an 8-inch touch-panel monitor. High-resolution display and easy access to various machine functions. Intuitive controls for attachment, working mode, and travel mode.
Revamped work equipment
Enhanced work equipment through thick plating and reinforced castings. Provides additional strength and power for the operator in tough work conditions.
Enhanced operator features promote zero harm
Rollover avoidance alerts. KomVision 360 camera for enhanced bird’s eye views. Unbuckled seat belt reminders and human detection alerts. Courtesy lights and handrails designed for high visibility.
2D boundary control
Automatically decelerates operations near set virtual walls. Can be set in various directions. Icon indicators and cab buzzers deliver proximity-to-boundary alerts.

2D machine control
Enhances excavation and grading by automatically managing the cutting edge's position relative to a design surface. Includes auto stop control, auto grade assist, and touch point functionality
Control maintenance costs
Compared to the PC210LC-11, up to a 20% reduction in overall maintenance costs can be achieved from extended intervals for hydraulic oil and filter replacement, as well as KDPF cleaning.
