Reach without entering the water
Long-reach excavator
“I need to clean a canal and the machine cannot reach from the bank”
The Super Long Front is not an arm bolted onto a catalog machine: it is a Komatsu factory arrangement, built from the frame up. It carries additional factory counterweight, frame reinforcement and optimized hydraulics to hold that reach without compromising the machine's balance. It goes on the PC210LC-10, PC240LC-10, PC290LC-10, PC360LC-10, PC390LC-10 and PC490LC-10, with fronts from 15.2 to 19.8 metres. The arm tucks under the boom so the machine transports without dismantling the front.

- Cofferdam and slurry-wall construction in light soils
A long front trades breakout force for reach: the front is sized against the project's actual depth and material, not the other way round. The ranges below are factory catalog figures — the reach that applies to your site comes out of the technical visit.
It arrives as one machine, with one point of responsibility
A single point of responsibility
The base machine, the special configuration and the commissioning arrive as one machine delivered by the group. No finger-pointing between suppliers when something fails.
Local support for the base machine
It is a Komatsu: parts, workshop and certified technicians in El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua and Panama, with the same KOMTRAX telematics as the rest of the fleet.
Sized against the project
Reach, depth and soil type govern, not a catalog. It is defined in a technical visit and quoted against the real job, not against a list of options.

Tell us the job, not the machine
What has to be moved, at what depth, over what ground and for how long. With that we define the base machine and the configuration, and the proposal comes back against the real job.
