The 2387 kW 3,200 HP retarding system provides state of the ar t braking capacity for navigating today’s mining applications which contain steep continuous descents and shar p switchbacks The continuous retarding capacity enhances the productivity of the vehicle operator, while eliminating the need for excessive mechanical braking effor t


Inver tex II® AC control system offers independent control of the rear wheelmotors, which in tur n provides outstanding traction-ability dur ing wet and slipper y conditions, thus improving tire wear and operator confidence.
The air cooled Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) inver ter system technology provides the highest available reliability The IGBT inver ter is more compact and much simpler than the design of its predecessor, the Gate Tur n Off (GTO) inver ter, which improves ser viceability and routine maintenance
During slipper y events caused by inclement weather conditions and/or application severity, the wheel Spin-Slide technology will detect and correct any wheel spin control events. Spin-Slide Control operates automatically and independently of the ser vice brakes During propulsion, "wheel slip control” reduces non-productive wheel spin in low traction conditions During retarding, "wheel slide control” prevents wheel lockup and subsequent sliding
While in retard or propel, the operator has the ability to select a comfor table travel speed. Automatic Speed Control simultaneously manages the speed of each wheel independently to allow for any immediate adjustments needed dur ing slipper y underfoot conditions
For all tr ucks, Komatsu goes through the Body Wor ksheet (BW) process to ensure that each body is designed to meet the requirements for each specific application while carr ying its rated payload. Komatsu wor ks with each customer to understand all of the mater ial proper ties at a mine site and to identify the appropr iate liner package

By using advanced computer-aided design, finite element analysis, and full-scale dynamic and static testing, the frame design has been str ucturally enhanced to carr y 181 tonne 200 shor t tons and provides the highest reliability in the industr y

The hydraulic system is a proven and reliable design with fewer par ts than other OEMs. The system utilizes a common tank, and therefore, common fluid for steer ing, braking, and hoisting In-line, replaceable filtration elements provide additional hydraulic system protection from contamination
To keep downtime to a minimum, Komatsu developed a sub-frame pump module that can be removed and replaced as a single unit This reduces change-out time and allows easy access to the hydraulic pump module

To increase frame reliability, steel castings have been incor porated at key frame pivot points and key load bear ing cr itical por tions of the frame This includes the rear body pivot and horsecollar sections
In the event that the hydraulic pressure in the steer ing or braking system drops below an acceptable minimum, nitrogen-charged accumulators will automatically apply the brakes so that the tr uck may be stopped There are separate accumulators for the braking and steer ing systems

The GEB35 is a proven wheelmotor design based on the GEB25 and 788 It has a standard gear ratio of 30 8:1 and is designed for 12% equivalent grades

The 730E comes standard with four-wheel hydraulically actuated dr y disc ser vice brakes By using a fully hydraulic braking system, the for mation of water and sedimentstypical in air actuated braking systems - is no longer present This prevents contamination, freezing and corrosion from affecting ser vice brake component life


*Stops in 81% of ISO 3450 allowable distance

The Komatsu advanced monitor ing system identifies maintenance items to the operator, reduces diagnostic times, indicates oil and filter replacement hours, and displays fault codes This monitor ing system is designed to maximize machine availability
The automatic lubrication system is designed to reduce downtime for lubrication by having a centralized location that automatically distributes grease to all lubrication points
This box contains shutdown, lockout and light switches making it easier to perform basic maintenance functions at ground level Component switches include:
• Engine shutdown
• Access ladder light switch
• Master disconnect switch
• Star ter disconnect switch
• Propel lockout lever
• LED indicator lights (on/off)

The flange type r ims allow easy removal and installation of the tires and minimize the overall impact on downtime.

As par t of a complete ser vice and suppor t program, Komatsu equips ever y mining and quarr y sized machine with KOMTRAX Plus By using a satellite-based communication system, KOMTRAX Plus offers a new vision of monitor ing your valuable assets by providing insight to cr itical operating metr ics and infor mation that can be used to increase availability, lower owning and operating costs and maximize fuel efficiency
