Komatsu PC600-8 excavator keeps the key features of its predecessor so that it can be as productive, versatile, and reliable as its predecessor. The robust construction means it can handle the toughest jobs. The Komatsu PC 600 excavator gets its exceptional power and work capacity from its Komatsu diesel engine. The power output is 433 HP. With an EGR system that is controlled electronically, the engine has a lot of power and uses little fuel.
The Komatsu PC600 is the company’s most powerful model. It has a powerful engine that can dig 12.9 tons per hour. Fitted with a high-flow hydraulic system, this excavator offers maximum work efficiency.
The Komatsu PC 600 LC 8 excavator is made for digging and has the most powerful bucket in its class. The bucket can be tilted up to 45° and down to -5°; with quick attach buckets, standard hydraulics allow for a 30° tilt. It also has a Komatsu dig assist, which makes digging faster and less painful on soft ground by reducing vibrations.
The PC 600 Komatsu is intended to be a long-lasting and dependable excavator. For maximum durability, the boom, arm, and bucket are made of high-tensile steel with thick plates. Furthermore, the large cross-sectional structures allow for greater flexibility and dependability than other excavators.
