Komatsu PC5500-6

Komatsu PC5500-6

The 1.1 million pound PC5500-6 Features two 1260 hp diesel motors. If a mine would prefer to use electrical power, the PC5500-6 can be equipped with two electric motors instead of diesel. Like smaller Komatsu mining excavators, backhoe or shovel fronts can be fitted to the PC5500-6.

 

Komatsu also offers P&H electric rope shovels that provide the lowest cost-per-ton solution for high performance mining operations. Learn more about our electric rope shovels here.

Body
Cab The large and comfortable cab is mounted on 18 viscous damping pads and sound insulated. The cab has automatic climate control and is pressurised. The operator’s seat is air suspended, electrically heated and has a lap seat belt and offers multiple adjustments. The trainer seat is also equipped with a seat belt. Low-effort joystick controls are electrohydraulic with foot controls for front shovel clam, crawler and swing brake. Full instrumentation, KOMTRAX Plus and an AM/FM radio with MP3 ready CD player with AUX in is fitted. The windshield wash wiper has two speeds and intermittent operation. Amenities include a refrigerator and storage cabinets. Powered and heated mirrors are adjusted from inside the cab. External metal sun blinds on the cab side window and interna roller blinds on all windows are standard. The left hand window is an emergency exit. All windows are tinted parsol green. The front window is a 19mm thick impact resistant window. A walkway is mounted in front of cabin.

Hydraulics The power train consists of two main drives. Each of the two gearboxes drives three identical pumps which draw hydraulic oil from an unpressurised hydraulic tank. Open circuit hydraulics provide maximum cooling and filtering efficiency.
The four-circuit system features a load-limiting governor with oil delivery summation to the working circuits and incorporates pressure cut-off control. Hydropilot prioritises hydraulic flow giving smooth hydraulic response, simple hydraulic system layout, and a reduced number of components. The hydraulic system includes large swing-out vertical air to-oil hydraulic coolers with temperature-regulated hydraulically driven fans.
