The articulated dump truck is a six-wheeled dump truck that is equipped with a fully hydraulic articulated steering system. This allows the truck to pivot between the cab and the body of the truck.

The Komatsu HM400-1 articulated dump truck is one example. This truck is used to haul up to 29 cubic yards of material over the roughest of terrains. It is especially useful in mining operations to haul the product away.

The HM400-1 has many user-friendly features, which include a wide, spacious cab that allows the operator work in a comfortable environment. The cab can also be tilted rearward to provide easy service to the engine. It is equipped with a turbocharged high performance and environmentally friendly Komatsu SAA6D140E-3 engine that meets North American EPA tier 2 emission regulations for 2001. It is a six cylinder, 444 horsepower, water-cooled 4-cycle engine with 1,508 foot-pounds of torque.

The steering system uses a PCCS lever that is joystick controlled with wet multiple-disc steering clutches that are spring loaded and hydraulically released. The wet, multiple-disc, pedal and lever-controlled steering brakes are spring actuated, and hydraulically released and require no adjustments. The steering clutches and brakes are interconnected for easy, responsive steering.

The Komatsu D58P-1 crawler dozer is bigger, stronger and more powerful than the previous dozers. This machine is ideal for mountainous regions where there is a lot of rock and course soil movement required. It has a 130 horsepower engine and weighs 35,251 pounds.

A few of the dimensions of the GD530A-2C include, an overall length of 27 feet 7 inches, a height of 10 feet 9 inches, and a width of 12 feet.

The Komatsu WB150PS-2 backhoe loader is the best over all backhoe loader that Komatsu offers. It is identical to the WB150-2, except it is equipped with the same power shift transmission offer on the WB140PS-2.

The WB150AWS-2 has three steering modes; standard two wheel steering, four wheel coordinated steering and crab steering. It also has a unique power shift transmission that is equipped with both automatic and manual gear selections. The engine on this superb piece of equipment is a 369 cubic inch, turbocharged, direct injection, vertical, 4-cycle water-cooled diesel engine that generates 98 horsepower and 276 foot-pounds of torque.

The suspension is provided by an oscillating equalizer bar and pivot shaft. There are a series of lubricated track rollers that are resiliently mounted to the roller frame with a series of X-type bogies whose oscillating motion is cushioned by rubber pads. The tracks consist of 49, 34 inch, shoes that include seals to prevent entry of foreign abrasives into pin-to-bushing clearances. This helps to provide extended service life. The ground contact area of the tracks is 15,473 square inches. They transmit a fully equipped ground pressure of 21.8 pounds per square inch.
