Komatsu Departure

Komatsu Departure

Our 40T Komatsu is gearing up to depart and start a new venture after over two years at the HMP Millsike project with Kier Construction. Plant Supervisor Alan Whyte has expertly managed our biggest equipment from day one. 

Common uses for a 40T Komatsu machine

  1. Excavation:
  • As an excavator, it is used for digging, trenching, or earthmoving in construction projects, such as building foundations, roads, and landscaping.
  1. Lifting and Hoisting:
  • If it’s a crawler crane, it is used to lift heavy loads like steel beams, equipment, and construction materials on large-scale construction sites.
  1. Demolition:
  • It can be used for breaking down structures, either with specific attachments or by leveraging its lifting capacity and precision.
  1. Mining:
  • In mining, a Komatsu excavator of this size is used for digging and loading materials, including dirt, rock, and ore, into trucks or other equipment.
  1. Material Handling:
  • The machine can be used for handling large quantities of materials on industrial sites, moving them from one location to another.

    

The 40-ton Komatsu is favoured for its power and versatility, making it ideal for a wide range of heavy construction and industrial applications.
