As the mining and construction industries in Indonesia continue to develop, the demand for heavy equipment is on the rise, particularly for 30-ton excavators. In light of this demand, PT United Tractors Tbk (UT), the official distributor of Komatsu heavy equipment in Indonesia, has unveiled an innovative strategy by introducing two new models of 30-ton excavators. This dual-line strategy is intended to provide customers with more versatile options that meet their specific needs. The two models launched by UT are the PC350LC-8M2, which aims for maximum productivity, and the PC300-8M2, which focuses on achieving optimal efficiency.
PC350LC-8M2
This 30-ton excavator is equipped with the largest bucket available in its category, offering a capacity of 2.4 m³. With its long crawler specifications, the unit is designed to ensure stability in all conditions, even when utilizing a larger bucket. Tailored for the mining industry with an emphasis on productivity, this machine is proficient in managing medium to hard materials, rendering it an excellent option for a range of heavy work applications.
PC300-8M2
Featuring a 2.2 m3 bucket and a longer reach, the 30-ton excavator is perfectly tailored for a wide range of applications in both construction and mining, particularly in support roles. Built for optimal efficiency, this unit is adept at handling loose to medium materials, rendering it a reliable solution for numerous operational demands.
By introducing these two-unit models, UT guarantees that customers have the opportunity to select the product that best meets their operational requirements, while also providing additional flexibility to address various challenges in the field. This initiative reflects UT’s commitment to delivering superior service to its clients and reinforces its position as an adaptive and responsive market leader in response to the evolving needs of the industry.
These two-unit models deliver not only exceptional performance and efficiency but also optimal operational cost management. This proactive strategy is designed to guarantee that customers acquire the right heavy machinery, thereby improving their productivity and effectiveness in the field. Key benefits include:
Reliable & Durable
The PC300-8M2 and PC350LC-8M2 models feature 13 enhancements, including a more durable and efficient engine, as well as improvements to the fuel filtration system that reduce maintenance costs by up to 45% compared to previous generations. Both models are equipped with reinforced booms and arms, protected by arm rock protectors for maximum durability. The undercarriage has also been strengthened with struts on the track links and grease-sealed tracks to extend service life. The bottom guard offers protection against damage from wood, stones, and other hard objects. Additionally, the blow-by gas pressure and clogging sensors provide early detection to prevent serious damage, thereby enhancing the longevity of the hydraulic system and engine.
Safety & Comfort
Both the PC300-8M2 and PC350LC-8M2 are equipped with ROPS-certified cabins in accordance with ISO 12117-2 and OPG level 1 as per ISO 10262. These cabins are specifically designed to safeguard operators in emergency situations, such as machine rollovers or being struck by heavy objects. Additionally, the cabins feature air conditioning, suspension seats, USB ports, and security elements, all aimed at enhancing the comfort and productivity of operators during their work.
Peace of Mind
Both machines are designed with maintenance ease in mind, featuring an ergonomic design, readily available spare parts, easy access to components, and clear maintenance instructions. This facilitates maintenance activities while saving time and costs. Equipped with KOMTRAX technology, these units provide operational information such as fuel consumption, load summaries, and idle time, assisting customers in running their businesses more efficiently. Furthermore, customers can have peace of mind with a standard one-year warranty with no hour limit and a machine warranty of up to 15,000 working hours.
Furthermore, a notable advantage of all UT and Komatsu products is the United Tractors Guaranteed Product Support (UTGPS), which includes 20 branches and hundreds of support points distributed throughout Indonesia. Additionally, UT adheres to an OTIF (on time in full) standard for its customers, ensuring timely delivery of spare parts, punctual arrival of mechanics, and prompt completion of unit work as part of their sales service.
Andreas, the Marketing Division Head of UT, remarked, “UT consistently engages in innovation and prioritizes United Tractors Guaranteed Product Support, which serves as a comprehensive and extensive after-sales service, highlighting the superiority of our products.”
In addition, it is highlighted that UT contributes to the national economic development, with various parts of its machinery being produced locally in Indonesia. This has a favorable impact on the growth of the national industrial sector.
