Indonesian Palm Oil News (IPO News) – Amidst the development of Indonesia’s mining and construction industry, the need for heavy equipment is increasing, especially for 30-ton class excavators. In response to this requirement, PT United Tractors Tbk (UT), the official heavy equipment distributor of the Komatsu brand in Indonesia, has launched an innovative strategy by introducing two new 30-ton class excavator models. This dual-line strategy is designed to provide customers with more flexible choices and to suit their specific needs. The two products that UT introduces are:
- PC350LC-8M2 for maximum productivity
- PC300-8M2 for optimal efficiency
The PC350LC-8M2 is a 30-ton class excavator with the largest bucket in its class, with a capacity of 2.4 m³. Equipped with long crawler specifications, this unit is designed to remain stable in all conditions, even with a larger bucket. This tool handles medium to hard materials, making it an excellent option for heavy-duty tasks. It was specifically made for the mining industry, which places a premium on productivity.
The PC300-8M2 is a 30-ton class excavator with a 2.2 m³ bucket capacity and a longer reach. This unit is suitable for various applications in the construction and mining sectors, especially in support work. It meets multiple operating needs since it is well-suited for handling loose to medium materials and is designed for maximum efficiency.
By introducing these two unit models, UT ensures that customers can select the product that best suits their operational needs and provides additional flexibility in facing various challenges in the field. This step reflects UT’s commitment to providing the best service to customers while confirming its position as an adaptive market leader and responsive to changing industry demands.
These two unit models offer superior performance and efficiency and are optimal regarding operational costs. They are a proactive effort to ensure customers get the right heavy equipment and can increase their productivity and work effectiveness in the field.
Some of the advantages of Komatsu products are:
1. Reliable & Durable
The PC300-8M2 and PC350LC-8M2 come with 13 updates, including a more durable and efficient engine and an enhanced fuel filtering system that lowers maintenance expenses by up to 45% compared to the previous generation. Both have reinforced booms and arms that arm rock protector shields for optimal durability. The undercarriage is strengthened by struts on the track link and grease-sealed tracks for a longer service life. Bottom guards guard against sharp things like rocks and wood. The hydraulic system and engine’s lifespan are increased by blow-by gas pressure and clogged sensors, guaranteeing early detection and stopping significant damage.
2. Safety & Comfort
The PC300-8M2 and PC350LC-8M2 are equipped with an ISO 12117-2 and ISO 10262 OPG level 1 certified ROPS cab, designed to protect the operator in emergencies such as machine rollover or being crushed by heavy objects. The cab is also equipped with air conditioning, a suspension seat, USB ports, and safety and interior features designed to enhance operator comfort and productivity while on the job.
3. Peace of Mind
Both machines are designed with ease of maintenance, such as ergonomic design, spare parts availability, easy component access, and straightforward maintenance instructions. This makes maintenance easier, saving time and money. The units’ KOMTRAX technology helps customers manage their companies more profitably by providing operational data such as fuel usage, load summary, and idle time. In addition, customers can rest assured that there is a standard 1-year unlimited-hour warranty and a machine warranty of up to 15,000 working hours.
Furthermore, the advantage of all UT and Komatsu products is the United Tractors Guaranteed Product Support (UTGPS), where UT has 20 branches and hundreds of support points spread throughout Indonesia. Also, as part of its after-sales service, UT offers its clients OTIF (on time in full), ensuring timely delivery of spare parts, mechanics, and unit processing.
Andreas, the head of UT’s marketing division, stated, “UT always innovates and prioritizes United Tractors Guaranteed Product Support, which is a comprehensive and extensive after-sales service as the advantage of our products.”
“UT will support the development of the national economy,” he continued, “where some parts of our machines are also produced in Indonesia.” Thus, this positively impacts the growth of the national industry.”
