Electrifying insights - the PC33E-6 at the 52nd VDBUM major seminar

• The Komatsu PC33E-6, a battery-electric mini excavator, was showcased at the 52nd VDBUM major seminar, highlighting its compact design and electric drive concept.

• This model features a 17.4 kW electric motor powered by a 35 kWh lithium-ion battery, achieving efficient charging times with an external 400 V quick charger (20% to 100% in 1.8 hours).

• The PC33E-6 is designed for an operating weight of approximately 3620 kg and includes a small swing radius of 1020 mm to minimize overhang over the track.

• Komatsu introduces the E-Support customer program for the PC33E-6, offering factory-scheduled maintenance, an additional machine warranty, and a warranty for select electric drivetrain components, including the battery and inverter, for up to 5 years or 10,000 operating hours.

Where can you find electric drives combined with outstanding customer service? - Komatsu's new battery-electric mini excavators offer a modern approach to both the drive concept and the Komatsu E-Support customer program.

One example of this combination is the Komatsu PC33E-6, which was recently presented at the 52nd major seminar of the German Association of the Construction Industry, Environmental and Machine Technology (VDBUM) from January 30 to February 2 in Willingen.

The mini excavator, which is compact thanks to its small swing radius of 1020 mm with a minimal overhang over the track of 240 mm, has a 17.4 kW battery-powered electric motor. This is powered by a long-lasting 35 kWh lithium-ion battery pack.

It has an operating weight of approx. 3620 kg, including weather protection roof, driver and standard equipment. The standard equipment also includes an external 400 V quick charger for particularly efficient battery charging (from 20% to 100% in 1.8 hours).

However, the innovative PC33E-6 convinces with further points, such as the Komatsu E-Support customer program. Created specifically for owners of Komatsu battery-powered PC33E-6 mini-excavators, this program consists of three parts: Factory-scheduled maintenance performed by a Komatsu-trained technician using genuine Komatsu parts, an additional warranty for the machine, and a warranty for select electric drivetrain components.

It includes free factory scheduled maintenance for up to 3 years or 2,000 hours of operation, whichever comes first, as part of the extended warranty. The component warranty on the new high-quality components for the electric drivetrain offers even greater operational reliability. These include, for example, the battery and inverter, the external charger and the electric motor. The exclusive warranty period here is up to 5 years or 10,000 operating hours.

This offer is based on Komatsu's conviction to provide its customers with the greatest possible support and safety when using Komatsu machines. This is the only way to take a joint step towards alternative drives and thus towards a long-term successful future based on partnership.
