KATO WORKS started sales of crawler carrier IC70R, a brand-new 360°slewing crawler carrier, in May 2023. This new model has dramatically increased safety and transportability in response to many customers’ suggestions. It also has an engine that clears Europe Stage V and EPA Tier 4 regulations.
Transportability
– Compact Size
– Vehicle height was decreased to 2680mm, clearing more height restrictions while transporting.
– Vehicle width was decreased to 2490mm, giving more transportability.
Safety
– Engine Overrun Prevention.
– An electrically controlled engine and hydraulic pumps significantly reduce the risk of engine overrun, making downhill travel much safer.
– Low Center of Gravity.
– The center of gravity is lowered while maintaining ground clearance at 560mm. As a result, stability in all directions
increases, thus decreasing the risk of overturning.
– Safety in tight spaces.
– With the width decreasing to 2490mm while maintaining stability, it is less likely to make contact with other machines or obstacles in tight working spaces.
– Better Visibility.
– The visibility from the cabin is increased. The operator can also check blind spots from cameras equipped on the vehicle.
– ROPS cabs.
– For better safety, the vehicle is equipped with ROPS cabs.
– Traveling and Slewing Speed limit function.
– Traveling and slewing speed is limited under certain conditions for increased safety.
– Traveling speed is limited to 50% under the following conditions:
– Slewing angel is not neutral.
– Vessel is not fully retracted.
– Slewing speed is limited to 70% under the following conditions:
– Slewing operations while traveling.
Productivity and Handling
– Joystick Lever.
– Traveling, vessel, and slewing controls are controlled with two joystick levers on both sides, ensuring more comfortable operations even under long hours.
– Left joystick lever: Traveling and vessel controls.
– Right joystick lever: Slewing controls.
– Operating switches in cluster positions.
– Switches that are frequently used are concentrated near the monitor for easier operations.
– Comfortable seat.
– A recliner seat with suspension is used to fit the operator’s body better. The height of the cab is also lowered, for easier movements.
– 360 degrees Slewing Capability.
– The vessel is able to dump load with a 90 degrees slewing angle. The all-slewing capability is also handy in tight working spaces.
