Attendees got a firsthand look at the D61EXi/PXi-23.
Fri July 19, 2013 - Midwest Edition
Road Machinery & Supplies hosted the Komatsu Dozer Innovations Open House in Savage, Minn., on June 26.
Those who attended got to see firsthand the D61EXi/PXi-23, Komatsu’s first intelligent Machine Control model to the North American market. Due to its first fully automatic blade control, the D61i-23 dozer can perform not only finish grading, which has been possible with conventional machine control, but also rough dozing.
"We are excited to bring to market the next generation of machine control technology with Komatsu’s "intelligent machine control D61i-23," said Peter Robson, director of Intelligent machine controls. "The ease with which the D61i-23 transitions from rough dozing to finish grading with automatic blade control engaged is so seamless that both experienced and inexperienced operators will notice benefits."
