Equipment Overview

The Komatsu 830E is a rigid dump truck built for high-volume ore and overburden hauling in large open-pit mines, sitting below the larger 930E in Komatsu’s electric-drive haul truck range. It carries a 227-tonne nominal payload and a 158 m³ heaped body, delivering 1,865 kW of gross power, suited to major coal, iron ore, and hard-rock mining operations where high-capacity excavators or wheel loaders keep loading cycles fast.

Power comes from a Komatsu SDA16V160 16-cylinder diesel engine producing 1,865 kW (2,500 hp) gross and 1,778 kW (2,385 hp) net flywheel power at 1,800 rpm. A non-emissionised engine is standard outside North America, with an optional Tier 4 Final-compliant version available. Drive comes from an AC electric system: a GTA-51 traction alternator feeds GEB36 wheel motors at the rear axle, with automatic wheel spin-slide traction control and a 3,207 kW electric dynamic retarder for steep descents.
