Productivity Features

1. Komatsu High Horsepower Engine

The Komatsu 2,014 kW/2,700 HP engine is designed to operate on most mining applications without experiencing power loss. Fuel efficiency is also maximised with optimised air handling and two-stage turbocharging. Here are a few standard features:

  • A standard pre-lube system built to minimise start-up wear and increase overhaul life
  • CENSES on-board monitoring of engine performance for all the cylinders
  • ELIMINATORS filtration system reduces oil and filter changes by as much as one-third

2. AC Electric Drive System

The GTA51 traction alternator, combined with GE:111068 wheel motors and Invertex AC control system, offers trusted performance and easy maintenance. Invertex provides independent control of the rear wheel motors to provide outstanding wheel traction during wet and slippery conditions. This boosts tire wear as well as increases operator confidence and safety on site. The Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) inverter system offers the highest reliability for the dump truck. The IGBT inverter is more compressed and more modest than the design of its predecessor, the Gate Turn Off (GTO) inverter, which improves serviceability and minimises routine maintenance.

3. Electric Dynamic Retarder

The 4027 kW/5,400 HP retarding system offers high quality braking capacity for navigating mining applications with steep, continuous descents and sharp switchbacks. Continuous retarding capacity improves machine productivity while removing the need for excessive mechanical braking effort.

4. Cruise Control

The Komatsu 930E-5 cruise control allows the operator to focus on steering and situational awareness while maintaining a continuous speed. A set speed indicator offers confirmation that the truck speed matches the desired speed selected by the operator, along with easy-to-operate automotive style controls.

5. Tight Turning Radius

The Komatsu 930E-5 power steering system offers effective steering control with minimal operator effort. This is possible with the help of the double-acting hydraulic steering cylinders and six-point articulation linkage. The ISO-7457 turning circle measures the dump truck diameter as 32 metres, providing superior manoeuvrability for heavy loading and dumping conditions. The steering accumulators conform with ISO-5010 standards.

Better Productivity and Safety

This Komatsu dump truck is equipped with several safety and productivity enhancements that are essential for seamless operation. This dump truck has a higher gross vehicle mass to allow haulage of heavier payloads and the latest vehicle vision system to improve operator visibility. This machine has been designed with the latest engine and drive system technology that minimises parasitic loads and results in a more responsive drive. These improvements maintain the reputation of the lowest cost and tonne dump truck on the market.

Easy Maintenance

The Komatsu 930E-5 dump truck is installed with many services and convenience items through the front left bumper in-line with the original entry to the machine. This central location streamlines maintenance events, minimising the duration the truck is out of service for routine upkeep. This dump truck includes:

  • Auto-lubrication tank and controls
  • Power, starter and drive system lockout, such as lock-out or tag-out capable switches
  • Emergency engine shut-down controls
  • Fluid service centre, including coolant, engine oil, hydraulic oil or grease fill
  • Hydraulic step-up and down switch (hydraulic stairs are optional)

Improved Reliability

The Komatsu dump truck is known for its reliability, durability, and ease of maintenance. The latest machine model includes high-end technology and engineering developments that minimise repair time, increase intervals between servicing and planned component replacements.

Reduction in Environmental Footprint

The latest developments in drive systems and engines include features that reduce fuel consumption, particulate matter emissions and noise emissions. The engine can be configured with elective after treatments to meet stringent Tier 4 emission standards. Fluid consumption rates and waste management costs are reduced by electronically controlled fuel injection and improved vehicle filtration systems.

With the help of the 2,014 kW/2,700 HP Tier 4 Final engine, operators can expect up to 5 percent less fuel consumption and a 320-tonne payload. The Komatsu dump truck has improved overtime with electric drive trucks as leading pieces of equipment in the mining truck market. The Komatsu 930E-5 is the perfect match for large-scale mining applications with their large bucket shovels similar to the Komatsu PC7000 and PC8000.

The Komatsu 930E-5 dump truck features are designed to boost truck performance and minimise cost per tonne. These features include:

  • Powerful (16 cylinder) Komatsu SSDA18V160-4 Tier 4 Final engine, using DEF and SCR technology as an alternative to mufflers for improved noise reduction
  • Harmony between Tier 2 and Tier 4 engines to keep reliability high and maintenance costs low
  • Incorporation of DEF tank reservoir and delivery lines, plus-level and quality sensors
  • DEF tank built to perform in cold conditions
  • Thaw capability to flow DEF within 70 minutes of equipment start
  • Thermostatically controlled engine coolant loop in DEF sump head
  • Heated lines from DEF tank to SCR unit
  • Lower total fluid cost compared to Tier 2 engine
  • Fuel saver technology
  • Tight 15.8 metre turning radius
  • Electric fan for wheel motor and control cabinet cooling to reduce horsepower loss along with on-demand auxiliary cooling to meet thermal demands

A diversity of options and standard features further improve the convenience and lower cost of this dump truck. These include:

  • Ergonomically built cab with an ultra-quiet, operator exposure sound level
  • User-friendly display that shows fault codes, payload information and maintenance details
  • Komtrax Plus is a complete service and support program that uses a satellite-based communication system to provide a new vision for monitoring
  • By offering insight into serious operating metrics, the operator can monitor key performance indicators for increased availability, lowered operating costs and maximised fuel efficiency
  • PLM IV (payload monitoring system) can stock up to 20,480 downloadable records of data including payload, cycle times, load count and fault codes.
  • This system also serves as a critical tool to monitor truck production and avoid overload conditions that place unwarranted pressure on components.
  • The PLM IV uses an easy and seamless web interface for downloads and connects to other systems utilising Ethernet, CAN bus and USB technology
  • A ground level isolation station utilises lockout/tag out functional switches to segregate machine power, limit starter engagement or disable propulsion
