Komatsu D475A-5 LARGE DOZERS
Product Feature
Automatic Torque Converter Lockup System
For greater efficiency during long pushes, the lockup mode allows the system to automatically engage the torque converter lockup clutch. Locking up the torque converter transmits all the engine power directly to the transmission, increasing ground speed and thus achieving efficiencies equal to a direct drive. The results of this efficient use of engine power are less fuel consumption and faster cycle times.
Effect of ECMV Steering Clutches/Brake Control
When dozing downhill, ECMV automatically controls steering clutches and brakes depending on incline of machine or degree of load, reducing counter-steering and producing smooth dozing operation.
When dozing and turning, ECMV automatically controls stroke ratio of steering clutches and brakes depending on degree of load, enabling smooth dozing and turning.
Electronic Controlled Modulation Valve (ECMV)
Transmission
The controller automatically adjusts each clutch engagement depending on travel conditions such as gear speed, RPM and shifting pattern. This provides shockless and smooth clutch engagement, improved component reliability, extended component life, and operator ride comfort.
Steering Clutches/Brakes
Sensors monitor machine operating conditions and electronically control the steering clutches and brakes. Monitoring application parameters such as incline angle of slope and degree of load provides smooth and easy operation by reducing counter-steering on downhill travel, etc.
Fully Adjustable Air Suspension Seat and Travel Control Console
For improved rear visibility during the return portion of the cycle, the operator can adjust the seat 15° to the right. The transmission and steering controls move with the seat for optimum operator comfort. The travel control console is adjustable fore, aft, and for height. The armrest is independently adjustable up and down, providing optimum operation posture for all operators. The operator seat is also tiltable for facilitating downhill dozing.
K-Bogie Undercarriage System
K-Bogies with front and rear single bogies are utilized to increase the length of track on ground improving machine stability and leveling performance. An oscillating idler and increased sprocket lead angle improve riding comfort when traveling over rough terrain. K-Bogies oscillate with two fulcrums assuring a large amount of track roller vertical travel. Impact load to undercarriage components is minimized and durability of components is improved since track rollers are always in contact with track links. Track rollers follow track link movement to extend the undercarriage life. Excellent riding comfort is provided due to less vibration and shock when traveling over rough terrain.
Low Sound Levels
The D475A-5 features a unique and unrivaled low noise design. This is accomplished by improvements not only in the cab but throughout the machine. The cab features an insulated double floor to reduce power train noise, thicker glass in the door and increased pressurization from improved window seals. Engineered baffles on the machine absorb and reduce the fan noise. Cool air inlet ducts are lined with sound absorbing material that direct the air to the hydraulic fan and a double insulated engine hood with additional sound absorbing material further reduce engine noise. These improvements help the D475A-5 achieve remarkably low sound levels.
• Operator noise: 70dB(A) (Engine at high idle, fan speed at 70%, and air conditioner OFF)
• Dynamic noise (outside): 110dB(A) (As per ISO 6395)
Monitor with Self-Diagnostic Function
If the monitor finds abnormalities, a corresponding warning lamp blinks and a warning buzzer sounds to help prevent the development of serious problems. When abnormalities occur during operation, a service user code is displayed.
Palm Command Electronic Controlled Travel Control Joystick
Ergonomically designed palm command travel joystick provides the operator with a relaxed posture and superb control improving operator comfort. Transmission gear shifting is simply carried out with thumb push buttons.
Palm Command PPC Controlled Blade Control Joystick
The blade control joystick uses the Proportional Pressure Control (PPC) valve and joystick, similar to the travel control joystick. PPC control combined with the highly reliable Komatsu hydraulic system enables superb control. Dual tilt and pitch operation are enabled by pressing a switch with the thumb.
Track Link With Wedge Ring
New D375A-6 track links feature reduced press-fit force and a wedge ring. Conventional track pins are retained only with a large press-fit force. (The new track link divides pin forces between the wedge ring and press-fit force.) This enables easier service with reduced pin damage when turning pins and bushings. The result is improved undercarriage life and reduced maintenance cost through reduced wear, greater pin reusability, and reduced maintenance man-hours.
Track Shoe Slip Control Mode
Eliminates the need for the operator to constantly control engine power output with the decelerator pedal while ripping substantially reducing operator fatigue. Maneuverability is improved because the operator is free to focus on the ripping application without having to monitor the track shoe slippage. Repair costs are significantly lowered and undercarriage life is extended with the reduction in track shoe slippage. The track shoe slip control system will contribute to lower fuel costs because the engine output is automatically controlled to optimum levels for operation.
