OPERATORS OPERATORS COMPARTMENT COMPARTMENT


Operators Compartment
All steering, direction, and speed changes are made by a left-hand single joystick control. If the operator wants to move the machine forward and to the left, he simply moves the joystick forward and to the left. If he desires a gear change, he merely twists his wrist. The machine responds to the movement of the lever providing the operator with the feeling of natural control with Komatsu joystick.

Electronic Monitor Panel


An electronic monitoring system prevents minor problems from developing into major ones. All meters and gauges are controlled by a microcomputer, that provides a wide indication range for easier, more precise reading.

Low-Noise Design
The engine, power train components, and control valves are rubber-mounted to the frame. A low-noise engine is used and a radiator mask diverts the engine noise. Engine side covers provide more than style by damping engine noise.

Easy-to-Operate Work Equipment Control Lever


A PPC valve is used with the right joystick blade control. This improves operator comfort because of reduced operating effort and stroke. With the Closed-center Load Sensing System (CLSS) the blade lever stroke is directly proportional with blade speed, regardless of the load and travel speed. This results in superb, fine controllability.

Hydrostatic Steering System Smooth, Powerful Turning


The Hydraulic Steering System (HSS) is supplied by an independent hydraulic pump. Engine power is transmitted to both tracks without power interruption on the inside track. When the machine turns the outside track moves faster and the inside slower, for smooth, powerful turns. The left and right tracks can be counter-rotated for a minimum turning radius providing excellent maneuverability. Shock-free steering reduces machine vibration and minimizes operator fatigue. Turning while dozingthe machine turns by driving the left and right tracks under power at different speeds allowing the machine to travel at the same speed as in straight dozing. Side-cuttingwhen side-loading the blade, straight travel can be maintained utilizing HSS. On downhill slopesthe machine doesnt require cross steering. The joystick provides the same steering response on downhill slopes as on flat ground. Gradingcan be done efficiently without damaging the ground, because the inside track is not locked during turning.

Hexagonal Pressurized Cab (Optional)


Air filters and a higher internal air pressure prevent external dust from entering the cab. The cabs hexagonal design provides excellent front, side, and rear visibility. The REU and the oil damper suspension softens shocks for operator comfort and extends component life.

UNDERCARRIAGE UNDERCARRIAGE AND FRAME AND FRAME


Undercarriage
Advanced Resilient Equalized Undercarriage (REU)
The Komatsu X-type bogie resilient equalized undercarriage (REU) performs independent see-saw movements. Tremendous traction can be achieved even on uneven ground, because the shoe always follows the contour of the ground. A rubber shock absorber is mounted on the X-type bogie and decreases vibration and shock. The X-type bogie and rubber cushion provide different absorption characteristics, depending on the ground surface. When the machine travels on flat ground, the REU functions as a conventional rigid undercarriage. When the machine travels on uneven ground, the REU maximizes the suspension effect. The Komatsu REU system improves traction, component durability, and operator comfort.

D155AX-5
CRAWLER DOZER

Flexibility
Flexibly grasps ground surface due to Komatsus unique track-roller design for more and better ground contact. Independent X-bogies and rubber pads (cushions) are incorporated into the track rollers.

Powerful Drawbar Pull for All Kinds of Terrain


The X-bogie and rubber pad provide different suspension characteristics depending on the ground surface. On flat ground, REU functions as a conventional rigid undercarriage. On uneven terrain, the REU maximizes the suspension effect the shoes always follow the contour of the ground, ensuring a greater actual ground contact for greatly-improved drawbar pull.

On flat ground

Track frame

Conventional Undercarriage
There is minimal shoe slippage with the conventional low drive type undercarriage. The shoe slip limit has been substantially raised due to long tracks and large ground contact area. The large traction force thus obtained, in combination with high engine power, results in superb drawbar pull. With the low center of gravity, dynamic stability is excellent.

Functions as a conventional rigid undercarriage.

Ensures almost the same traction force as a conventional rigid undercarriage.

On uneven ground

Seesaw movement is performed corresponding to ground surface.

Compared with a rigid type, the actual ground contact area increases and powerful drawbar pull is ensured because the track shoes follow the contour of the ground. Large deformation of the rubber pads contributes to greater suspension effect.
