Reliability, stability and adaptability

WA600-6

Operating weight 53,700 kg (118,400 lb)
Net flywheel power (SAE) 527 hp (393 kW) @ 1,800 rpm
Bucket capacity (SAE) 6,4 m³ (8,4 yd³) @ 1,8 t/m³

Capacity and power

Provides an excellent work environment for the operator due to its automatic transmission with ECMV (Electronically Controlled Modulation Valve), an electronically controlled transmission lever, a variable transmission cut-off system, a tiltable, telescopic steering wheel and manually controlled joysticks. The cab also has a low-noise design, a big pillar-less ROPS/FOPS, and back hinged easy-access doors.

Features

Wider articulation angle

For demanding field work, articulation angle is key because work cycles imply V-reverse movements (work standard). This Komatsu’s wheel loader has a 43º angle that allows the operator to move efficiently even in the tightest work sites.

Increased bucket capacity

The bucket of the Komatsu WA600-6 wheel loader can load up to 60 metric tons and 6,4 m3 with its standard version, which means more productivity when working together with Komatsu’s dump truck.

Ecology & economy - Technology 3

Komatsu, following its Ecology and Economy policy, continues to develop engines with high performance low-emission technologies, complying with the most rigorous environmental standards, such as the new EU Stage 3A and EPA Tier III emission regulations (equivalent).

With this technology, Komatsu introduces its new ECOT-3 engines with total electronic control system; fuel injection (Heavy-duty and high-pressure common rail); exhaust gas recirculation (EGR); air to air aftercooler and a new combustion chamber design; and NOx, PM and fuel consumption reducing systems.
