Komatsu recently announced its new WA700-8, a powerful and efficient addition to its range of wheel loaders designed for quarry operations and aggregate producers. This wheel loader is an ideal four-pass match with 70-ton trucks such as Komatsu’s new HD605-10 haul truck. The WA700-8 also offers substantial improvements in performance, efficiency and operator comfort compared to its predecessor, the WA700-3.
The WA700-8 features a comfortable cabin with technology designed to help reduce operator fatigue on long shifts, including a new advanced joystick steering system and electronic pilot control levers for precision and ease of operation. Automation features such as an automatic digging system, semi-automatic approach, and semi-auto dump systems simplify repetitive tasks, helping operators optimize load cycles. These systems are particularly beneficial for less experienced operators, helping to close skills gaps and enhance overall operational efficiency.
