Ladies and gentlemen dear guests and visitors I would like to welcome you all to the Bauma here in Munich and I would like to especially welcome you to the demo site of Komatsu great to have you here we have put together an exciting show for you and in the next 30 minutes we would like to show you a variety of Komatsu machines now if you have any questions regarding the Komatsu machines or also the services that we are offering please do not hesitate to contact my colleagues either here on the demo side or just across the road in Hall C6 where we have our booth but now I'd say let's get started let's get started for sure a very good morning dear Bauma audience come on make some noise are you there very good great to have you with us here today for our very first show we started the engines and we are ready to go coming in here on my right side is my wonderful colleague is coming in on a PC 24 mr-5 over here we have Lars also wonderful colleague Lars is coming in on a pc18 mr-5 now these as well as all other Komatsu utility machines are a combination of the most modern technology as well as komatsu's Decades of experience and the result Mom you can see it right here we have compact versatile and super user-friendly machines with first case performance rates so Komatsu is of course offering machines in all weights and size classes and I invite you check them out maybe a little bit later in Hall C6 where we have exhibited them for you so now thank you very much to Lars and thank you also to Rhino with that let me come just a little bit closer to you now we started small I'd say next let's go big and not just a little bit big but very very big so I don't know if you can see behind me it's sort of hard to miss we have komatsu's PC 4000e right there and all the way up there I believe is uh Matthias the lights are so blinding I can hardly see you good morning Matthias how are you Matthias is waving the key so why don't you put the key inside and start your engine and he's gonna show us a little bit of what he can do what we have right here is a 400 ton Mining Excavator it was developed in Dusseldorf that's also where it's being manufactured there you go you got it in okay so go for it show us what you can do so right here at Boma we are showing you the electrically powered version of which Komatsu already has sold 370 units worldwide together with its smaller as well as larger Brothers yes there is larger versions of this Komatsu has sold 1700 large excavators to customers all around the world now some of these machines they were delivered as early as the 1980s they are still up and running today and they have operating hours amazing 170 000 and there is no stopping them so uh we've had gotten a couple of quick facts together for you that you might want to know now I said there's a lot of power in this how much power exactly 7 200 volts are in action here and if you would like to check out the power cable that we have in the back it is gigantic also in the back we have a special entrance Door through which you can be led in onto our little demo area here so if you want to take a picture inside the bucket with let's say your 35 closest friends you can do that and I can guarantee we're gonna put it down so you can just step in easily you don't have to jump up to this height now Matthias over here he said to me you know I'd really like to drive this Mining Excavator to Palma you know just drive it there in one piece but we said it's just gonna take too long the top speed here is only 2.1 kilometers an hour so we had to take it apart into 16 heavy duty trucks and then reassemble it here and I think they did a really good job so with that that was the PC4000 let's move on to new very special machines that I'd like to show to you now so here they are come on inbound foreign we can see Vans coming in on an HD785-8 rigid dump truck this one right here is used in mines and quarries all over the world and although the dimensions are gigantic the driving Comfort actually isn't that much different from say a regular Highway truck of course you know the payload is a little bit different than what we're talking here is a length of more than 11 meters a width of more than five meters and band here can take a total weight of 188 tons hey band how are you doing up there so band here when he goes to the gas station he has to bring a very very very very big wallet because this gas tank here fits 1 300 liters so it's going to be quite expensive so you might have noticed the stickers on the side this right here is the 1000 HD 785 that Komatsu has sold to a customer in Europe so right after Bauma we're gonna wash it all up get it nice and clean again and then it's gonna be delivered to a very happy customer in Germany and this puts Komatsu by far in the market leading position in the 100 ton class so I think bounce a little bit lonely let's give him some company now coming in now is the WA800-8 to go together with that dump truck and it's going to be brought in by our Peter over here so what you see coming into our area now is a wheel loader offers a very comfortable working environment a very spacious and modern cabin and what our Peter here is enjoying is the ajss steering which is of course the joystick steering and you're going to see him in just a moment when we have placed a video camera in Peter's cabin so you can peek over his shoulders and what we're going to do next is we're going to get Peter in perfect position and you will be able to watch a loading game so here we go and getting into the perfect spot and if we watch Peter over here if Peter wants to fill one bucket fully he could take the weight of 312 washing machines and a band over here was a fully loaded he could take the weight of 1 162 washing machines or also 62 Mercedes C-Class or 14 elephants I don't know what you'd like to transport that's all possible so here we go with the loading game features that are Peter here enjoys are the auto kickdown function we have the automatic bucket filling system we have the integrated weighing system they are of course just some of the many features that support our Peter or the operator here in the daily work and in the safe use of this very powerful machine [Music] Ben's taking a coffee break you need a little sip of coffee right forget that for the now you have your coffee okay then here super relaxed while Peter has to do all the work well and so it is sometimes foreign and we will be moving on to the next topic now an interesting fact and something that maybe some of you might or might not know but we're going to change that now is that Komatsu makes machines for forestry that happens in Umeå that's in Northern Sweden and that's where the Komatsu Harvesters and forwarders are built and based on our wealth of experience we have decided to develop the wa-475-10 tool linkage in Hanover here it is being brought in by our Lars foreign so let me take a quick peek here around the side Lars likes to drive with an open cabin for us so we can peek inside and what we see right here is that Lars is enjoying joystick steering show us just how easy comfortable and ergonomic your work is do you have a cup of coffee also no no coffee for you do you have a cot in the back there you go oh water okay very important that our operators have enough fluid and food with them so let's put Lars to work again now this machine as you see it here was specifically designed for this purpose that we have prepared for you it is equipped with special lifting kinematics to meet the demanding challenges of loading logs at Peak Performance the features include a newly designed boom we have the special reversing lever as well as the revised hydraulic cylinders they all ensure an extremely even power transfer and that's what we need when listing out these logs here from any position and you know what I think a lot should be put to work now let's have him lift up not one not two not three all of these logs right now and take them for a little spin on our demo area come on Lars show us what you got [Music] thank you [Music] not a problem for our Lars so lifting all those logs and taking them for a little spin in our demo area [Music] great work Lars [Music] what we can see here also is a very small turning radius very agile fluid movements and let's set those logs back down foreign [Music] as you may or may not know are also active in the very important Demolition and recycling Market segment and a key machine here is the mobile Crusher that is our BR380 and we're gonna bring this baby onto our demo area now it is being operated by a remote control which you'll see just on the big screen here now by our operator Peter and Peter as you can see can multitask he can operate the pc290 as well as bring in the BR380 via the remote control what we see here is komatsu's first zero two machine in Europe and you may ask yourself how is that possible very easy Komatsu purchases the equivalent of CO2 produced by the machine every year for the lifetime of the machine it is a self-propelled machine that feeds material into the jaw Crusher via the vibrating Hopper and then crushes it to a variable size between 50 to 400 millimeters now what you will have seen here on the side is that our Lars already connected the water holes and that is so we don't have so much dust now in the air so I'd say Let's uh load up this mobile Crusher and see it be put to work come on Peter go for it thing you're going to see is that on the right side the smaller fragments as well as sand are being ejected so let's get rid of those first [Music] and now let's go for it foreign [Music] parts are being removed with the magnetic separator and the separated material is being conveyed with the injection belt we also have internal sensors that work here so in case there is a blockage they immediately registered and they stop the blocker if need be before any damage can occur [Applause] and this is quite spectacular actually from the shows we've done during the rest of Bauma is that as I mentioned we have the water connected now so there's no dust and particles flying through the air right now so I'd say let's wait just a moment until it's finished Lars is gonna check right now see how much we still have got a little bit still in there but I think it's looking good now all the parameters for the crusher as well as the conveyor belt they can be very easily read and checked just on the side on the input panel and then they can be controlled on the color display and that's what you're going to be seeing in just a few moments Lars will be showing that to you [Music] see now Lars is opening up the side panel to show you you can see the color display everything seems A-Okay and what Lars is also going to do he's going to switch to manual control as you saw a little bit earlier Peter was using the remote control to bring it in so let's switch it up to manual now so that Lars can use the upper Drive control to park the machine first of course we have to disconnect the water hose [Applause] [Music] Nina over here waiting very patiently on the wa320 which I'll tell you about in just a few moments [Applause] [Music] okay next thing that Lars needs to do is he needs to make sure that the pre-screening is stowed away and close the side panel and then we are good to go [Music] and there we have the crushed material by the way if you want to take a peek [Applause] [Music] okay here's our Lars coming back up now if you could just park it back over there because we need our demo area free again okay [Applause] [Music] so right now as mentioned we can see right here in the WA320-8 this is a 16 ton wheel loader with zed kinematics and fast reacting hydrostatic drive it is equipped as you saw already with a hydraulic quick coupler and it has its place on any construction site this wheel loader right here is equipped with of course the comfortable support system that you have gotten accustomed to by Komatsu so let me hit you with a couple of keywords we have torque control we have Smart loader logic we have variable shift control and that's just to name a few they all Supply a very ergonomic and also easy workplace for our Arena doing an excellent job over here so now let's clean up this area right now an example here are our Komatsu dozers they're well known well proven I would say they're even famous and the example that we are showing you now is the D51PXi-24 this is a bulldozer with hydrostatic drive a six-way blade control and integrated 3D control it weighs approximately 14 tons it's super light makes it perfect for a quick transport from one job site to the next the electronic hydrostatic HST transmission developed by Komatsu and the Palm commands control they offer a very comfortable working environment on one of the most efficient machines on the market now this particular machine right here has Factory integrated 3D control and what it does is it makes our operator hear our Peter apply or remove material with millimeter Precision also has a very simple and intuitive to use touch screen monitor built in here and by the way the same 3D control you can find just over here on the PC290 and if you'd like to know more about our 3D control we're going to put band over there near the 290 to tell you all about it but first we need band in action wheeled excavators they can be found on many construction sites and right here we have our PW1XX it is the newest member of the Komatsu wheeled excavator series and it gives us a little bit of a glimpse into the future [Music] it's super strong it's very versatile this is what the next generation of wheeled excavators by Komatsu will look like so much Happening Here in our demo area now the development of our wheeled excavator is not quite finished yet as you can see in the stickers on the side but this prototype already proves to be just as versatile as a Swiss Army knife [Music] foreign so let's put bam to work here [Music] thanks to the full hydraulic quick coupler can be quickly adapted to the job at hand with very little effort all the required tool settings for the oil flows and the pressure they can be stored in the system and very easily selected when the Tool change is due [Music] thank you the further development of our wheeled excavator looks quite promising and already shows just how versatile these machines can be what we see here are compact dimensions a very low transport height we are talking under four meters here we have a very powerful Drive super strong when lifting and working with heavy tools this wheeled excavator by Komatsu will be available at your local Komatsu dealer in 2024. [Music] so let's watch one more tool change one quick tool change [Music] great work bound we'll see you a little bit later if you have questions about our 3D system please be sure to talk to Bent who's going to be over there on the PC290 in just a little bit and with that I'd like to direct your attention over here we have Peter in action on a machine designed for the requirements of the Demolition and recycling market right here we see of course the PC490HRD and HRDstands for High Reach demolition well one very special thing about our new demolition machine is the method to change the boom configuration at the moment we have mounted the Dig boom on the base unit and Peter now will change this configuration to a high reach Demolition and he's going to do it all on his own because I will not help him this morning and you're not going to help him you stay where you are and he's not even going to have to leave his cabin because he can do it all from just inside there very fast using the patented Quick Change system so fast that we're going to set a timer now and see how fast he can do it he honked his horn that was the uh that's how we like to communicate he honks at me and I set the timer the timer is going now and let's see just how fast our Peter here can change the configuration Peter very concentrated at work already if you want you can watch this process from over here or you can of course also watch here on our big video screen and what you see in the top right corner is called a guidance Monitor and it will help our Peter here and show him how he needs to approach the lock system and what he has to do is he has to line up the blue lines perfectly sounds very easy it is very easy for our Peter here you can watch this process closely on the screen we are getting very very close so Peter doesn't have to guess he doesn't have to hope all he needs to do is aim perfectly and if he does and we'll see that now he gets the blue thumbs up the system says yes Peter you did a great great job and let's wait for him to honk the horn again the time 71 seconds so well under 100 seconds I think that's worth a huge round of applause for our Peter right now give it up for Peter so what you're going to hear next potentially is a little bit of a rattling sound it's totally normal what you hear is the intensifier and we need the intensifier because it supports the lifting of the equipment now as you can also see we still have the support stand mounted so I'd say first let's get rid of that and then what we're going to do next is attach the tool now in the longest configuration with the mounted extension the Komatsu PC490HRD is able to work with a maximum two and a half ton equipment and that in a height of 32 meters and once we get rid of the support stand that is what we are going to do here of course you also have the opportunity to watch it live especially nice for our audience just on this side over here or you can of course also watch it right here on our big screen and you can watch how precise and how concentrated our Peter is at work here very important information of course also all hydraulic and electrical lines they were connected automatically so let's take a look how it's going for Peter and he is ready to go I believe we are now ready to go up to a height of 32 meters 32 meters how high is that well we're gonna check it out right now you can watch it live over there or we have also prepared a little bit of a video clip for you which you will be seeing right now here it is so if you are ready fasten your seat belts make sure your tray tables are stored away we are going high up into the sky with our Peter now what you may or may not notice is that when we're looking up see I have to hold on to my hat and I'm straining my neck a little bit but that's something I have to do potentially you but not our Peter all he did was just tilt back the cabin so that he can lean back and work very concentrated up high up in the sky at a height of 32 meters and that's the sign we have reached 32 minutes 32 meters not in 32 minutes it was of course a lot faster so thank you very much to our video oh here you can see the Tilted cabin you can peek inside there we are Peter looking high up into the sky so while I have your attention looking up and around I'd like to direct your attention over here Hall C6 remember we have a couple of very nice exhibition pieces that we'd like to invite you to take a look at but even before Hall C6 we have something fantastic that we like to show you we have a PC950-11 crawler excavator it's brand new and it will be available very very soon so if you'd like to know more be sure to check with one of my colleagues so with the PW1XX we already sort of had a little bit of a glimpse into the future and now it's time to go just one step further Komatsu has set itself the goal of reaching carbon neutrality by the year 2015 and in the midterm Komatsu plans to reduce CO2 emissions down to 50 percent and increase the use of renewable energies by 50 to the year 2030 and that is when compared to the numbers of 2010. so to reach Cisco Komatsu's investing a lot of time money expertise in alternative Drive Concepts and of course electromobility is a key word here so in this context we're very happy to show you a few hydraulic excavators all with electric Drive in different sizes up to the PC210 just in there in Hall C6 but you're out here I need to impress you out here so ladies and Gentlemen please welcome the very first electrically driven wheel loader by Komatsu here it is [Music] foreign audience we have someone's very excited over here and of course we are tools the wa electric is a prototype under tests in which the travel Drive the steering and all the work equipment cylinders they are all operated electrically the quick coupler is still actuated hydraulically and this enables us to control hydraulic attachments and operate them in the same way as with a conventional wheel loader in the final expansion stage of this concert what we are planning to do is we're planning to use the battery a very powerful battery one then will allow us to work on the job site for a full day under regular working conditions so we're very excited about that hopefully happening very very soon so dear Palma audience you have been fantastic we are at the end of our 30 minutes already thank you so much for being with us here today thank you that we could talk a little bit about Komatsu's fantastic machines if you have questions please be sure to talk to my colleagues they can tell you all about the machines as well as the services thank you so much and right here we have Lars coming in I think Lars feels the same way as you is that you have been a fantastic Bauma audience and we have got some gifts for you so thank you so much for being with us right here at Komatsu have a great day take it easy and goodbye [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music]
