The Komatsu 951XC is a stable and powerful machine, especially designed for logging in steep and challenging terrain. Hub reductions, the compact design and a large work area are just some of the advantages.
Make your way regardless of the terrain
An important advantage when logging in hilly terrain is the levelling function for the cab and crane, which makes the machine a strong performer even on inclines. This feature is common to all Komatsu harvesters but provides particular advantages when working in steep terrain as the crane's slewing force would otherwise suffer when working against a gradient. The machine's stability also makes for more effective work at long reaches.
All Komatsu harvesters have bogies with integrated portals for good ground clearance and operator comfort. What's more, the bogie has an integrated balance function that makes for a machine that performs well both in steep terrain and on soft ground.
Low ground pressure and high stability
The XC machines are specially developed for logging in hilly terrain and on soft ground. Thanks to the 8-wheel design, our machines have a lower ground pressure, which makes them more gentle on the ground.
