Features for iMC 2.0 dozers

Learns as it works

With proactive dozing control, even less experienced operators can automatically cut/strip from existing terrain. The dozer measures the terrain it tracks over and uses that data to plan the next pass. Productivity can improve by up to 60% versus previous generation.

Spreads fill material automatically

Lift layer control automatically lets operators spread fill from existing terrain with the press of a button. The dozer measures the terrain it tracks over and uses the data it gathers to plan the next pass for up to double your production with consistent layers for compaction quality.

Levels material even during rough dozing

Tilt steering control automatically tilts the blade to maintain straight travel during rough dozing. Reduces operator steering input by up to 80%.

Quick surface creation

Operators can create a temporary design surface with the press of a button with quick surface creation. Combined with other iMC 2.0 functions, crews can begin stripping or spreading using automated input while waiting for the finish grade model.

Cutting-edge automation and job site design

From automatic dozing, rough cut to finish grade, iMC-equipped Komatsu dozers help make every pass count and give you the potential for superior production compared to traditional aftermarket systems.

  • Innovative: Automated operation from rough dozing to finish grade
  • Intelligent: New dozing mode and load control performance features
  • Designed for the machine: Factory-installed, integrated system
  • No cables: No coiled cables between machine and blade
  • No climbing: GNSS antenna and mast removed from blade
