First Glimpse of New Komatsu Excavator Series
A number of social media groups and forums have been sharing some recently released images of the new Dash-12 Komatsu excavators which we suspect will be officially launched during Bauma in Munich next April.
We know that development of the long-awaited Komatsu hydraulic excavator upgrade has been going on for some considerable time now. It will be exciting to see the new models as in all honesty, the current Dash-11 machines are starting to look a bit dated.
We are expecting some radical changes in these new machines which feature an all-new cab design and a raft of technological additions on the PC200i-12 and PC210i-12 such as dedicated 3D machine control options, geofence, and automatic rotation, in addition to many other safety features.
We won’t go into too much detail here but you can watch the video below from Komatsu which is unfortunately in Japanese, but you will get the drift.
