If your goal is minimizing your cost per ton, the PC4000 is an outstanding choice. Designed with input from mining organizations, it offers an advanced control system, 22 m³ shovel capacity, shovel/backhoe convertibility, and matches with your 150-240 st trucks.
Operator and work site safety are a priority. Komatsu hydraulic excavators have an LED screen to give your operator a 360-degree view, each meet ISO 10262, 6394, 10263-4 safety stand-ards, and all include anti-slip gratings, easy ingress/egress and an innovative emergency es-cape system.
Customized to your operation
While Komatsu shovels and backhoes meet the density benchmark of 1.8 t/m³, you have the option to customize your machine to the bucket size and wear package you need, and choose your heating/cooling systems, travel gear protections, special track pad variations and more.
Sustainable, powerful engines
Tier 4 engines deliver plenty of power with outstanding sustainability. An exhaust after-treatment system reduces particulate matter, sulfur oxides and dangerous NOx, and easy servicing of emissions components.
Diagnostics to help improve productivity
To improve productivity and limit downtime, you need accurate, reliable machine data. The exca-vator’s newly revamped monitoring system helps you dial in efficient machine movement, quickly identify opportunities to improve productivity, and troubleshoot any issues quickly.
Critical data to help boost efficiency
A built-in payload meter helps you optimize the efficiency of your truck traffic flow and your fleet. Knowing just how much load is in the bucket versus your trucks’ capacity gives you data you need to calculate optimal loading times and truck passes for maximum productivity.

The Argus Payload Monitoring System weighs each bucket in real-time, which helps eliminate the need to stop and calculate payload before loading the truck. Immediate feedback promotes loading accuracy, while peer benchmarking works to reinforce best practices to improve operator performance.
The ProVision Machine Guidance System promotes increased operator efficiency and productivity through the use of high-precision global navigation satellite system (HP-GNSS) positioning. Capable of providing up to 1 cm accuracy, the ProVision System helps guide excavator operators to dig the right material, keep the designed bench grade, respect dig limits, and work within the machine’s prime operating specifications. The system also provides guidance to truck operators to help promote precise spotting at a loading unit.
The MineCare Maintenance Management System combines the benefits of real-time remote equipment health monitoring with cloud computing technology and advanced analytics capabilities. The MineCare System promotes the advanced detection of issues before they occur, thus helping to reduce unplanned maintenance events, promoting increased uptime and utilization and reduced maintenance costs and equipment degradation.
The DISPATCH Fleet Management System (FMS) helps mines achieve enhanced load and haul cycle efficiency and productivity through its proprietary optimization algorithm. The DISPATCH FMS provides mines with increased potential for end-to-end monitoring of production and auxiliary equipment, improved compliance with planning objectives, shorter hang/queue times and more.
