Komatsu C93

New Komatsu C93 Harvester Head for Sale

Tackle tough forestry jobs with confidence using Komatsu wheeled harvesters, forwarders, log loaders, swing machines, felling heads and harvesting heads. Forestry work is often in the most rugged terrain and brutal conditions — and Komatsu forestry equipment is engineered for the task.

A highly productive, all round head for thinning that provides you with extra benefits through industry-leading experience and innovation. This is a good description of our new head, the Komatsu C93.

The C93 namely has a chassis construction like the popular 365, which ensures high fundamental quality and dependability. Moreover, there are a number of new productivity-raising enhancements. One of these is the new Constant Cut cutting unit with a fixed chain speed of 40 m/s (131 ft/s) that both speeds up cutting and minimizes risks for chain shot and splitting. An especially good refinement is the new design of the rollers, which provides high feed pressure without compromising smooth operation. Moreover, the multi-tree properties have been optimized thanks to the new rollers and the body roller in combination. Also significant is the raised body roller that enables more efficient handling of crooked trunks. Yet another new enhancement is the wide tilt angle of 40 degrees, which provides the fastest possible feed start and is easy on both the chassis and operator. Other significant benefits are patented length measuring, the improved energy efficiency of the hydraulics system, due to among other things, an actively controlled counter-pressure valve, as well as the excellent ease of service with centralized lubrication points. If you want both high profitability and dependability – choose the Komatsu C93!

Versatile, productive and reliable thinning head

This versatile high-performance thinning head is perfectly matched to Komatsu’s 901, 901XC and 911 wheeled harvesters, and compatible with other harvester brands. Four feed motors power three driven feed rollers, providing multiple contact points for carrying the stem.

• Powerful feed motor and feed roller designs
• Rugged knives handle crooked stems and tough limbs
• Robust butt saws with Constant Cut system

• Advanced feed system: Four feed motors power three driven feed rollers to provide multiple contact points for carrying the stem. Designed to center the stem for efficient feeding. Low clamping pressure delivers high feed force with low energy consumption.
• Rugged delimbing knife system: One lower and two upper hydraulically controlled delimbing knives and a fixed vertical top knife, with upper knives designed to handle trees with tough limbs like lodgepole pine. Cast iron knives deliver high durability and performance.
• Constant Cut saw unit: Intelligent saw motor control delivers the right chainsaw speed to reduce splitting risk and provide short cutting times. Programmable EcoOiler automatic chain lubrication system.
• Accurate length/diameter measuring systems: Patented length-measuring wheel cylinder design ensures constant equalized pressure to closely follow stem irregularities. High-resolution encoders, both left and right, deliver high accuracy.
• MaxiXT smart control system: State-of-the-art control system with intuitive graphical interface to manage all aspects of head control and performance. Easy programming of individual operator control preferences plus production parameters such as tree species, length and diameter.
• Excellent reliability and serviceability: Computer and hydraulic hoses/tubes are well-protected for high reliability. All daily service can be performed at ground level without repositioning. Centralized lubrication points further reduce service time.
