Built for tough jobs that require high performance, the Komatsu PC900LC-11 excavator is a versatile machine. The excavator is designed for heavy construction, demolition, material handling, deep sewer, water, large mass excavation and mining or quarry. The 842-hp PC900LC-11 was featured in Komatsu's booth at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023.
The PC900LC -11 offers the following:
- 25% more arm crowd force
- 12% more swing torque
Based on the reliable and durable PC800LC-8, the PC900LC-11 offers major design enhancements compared to the earlier model. The new counterweight removal system helps with moving and the boom configuration reduces transport height. A new service pass through area allows access to filters, oil level checks and sample ports. The major structures, booms and arms, with a redesigned revolving frame, were engineered for longevity.
To help operators with situational awareness, tools such as the KomVision camera system come standard on the PC900LC-11. KomVision is a 360-degree monitoring system that uses six cameras for a real-time view of the surroundings. Smart Construction 3D guidance and payload monitoring are other available options.
At the show, the PC900LC-11 was displayed with Smart Construction Retrofit, a guidance kit that gives operators in the field and managers in the office access to both 2D and 3D design and payload data. Installed by a local Komatsu distributor, this technology upgrade is designed to support grading performance and help drive operations.
