Komatsu has introduced significant upgrades to its crawler excavator operator cab, driven, the company says, by extensive customer feedback and a commitment to operator well-being and productivity.
High-visibility Komatsu yellow handrails on both the exterior and interior enhance safe access even in low-light conditions, while inside, the operator is greeted by a refined and ergonomic workspace. Inspired by high-end automotive design, the interior features a premium dark colour scheme with a plush floor mat, adding a luxurious touch that is also easy to clean.
The new cab prioritises clear visibility during operation. The front roller blind’s relocated position increases visibility by blocking the sun without obstructing the operator’s view. Upgraded LED lighting, both above the seat and in the rear of the cab, ensures illumination regardless of the time of day.
For operator comfort and reduced fatigue, the new cab also features a UV-protective rear window tint that minimises sun exposure and helps maintain a cool working environment.
Besides the standard upgrades, Komatsu also offers optional features to further enhance the operator environment.
A premium seat option automatically adjusts its position based on the weight of the operator, providing the highest level of personalised comfort throughout the workday.
New wide armrests with multi-positional locations allow for an optimal working posture. New operation control levers are designed to comfortably mould to any hand size or shape, reducing strain and fatigue over long shifts.
The new cab is available on all crawler excavator models from 17 tonnes to 49 tonnes.
