Equipment Overview

The Komatsu HD1500 is a rigid dump truck built for large-scale mining, Komatsu’s largest mechanical-drive rigid dump truck. It carries a 142-tonne rated payload and a 94 m³ heaped body, delivering 1,175 kW of gross power, suited to major coal, copper, and iron ore operations where high-capacity wheel loaders or hydraulic excavators keep loading cycles fast and consistent.

Power comes from a Komatsu SDA16V159-3 16-cylinder diesel engine producing 1,175 kW (1,576 hp) gross and 1,103 kW (1,479 hp) net at 1,900 rpm, with 7,170 N·m of maximum net torque. The engine is available as a U.S. EPA Tier 2 equivalent or in an optimized fuel-economy calibration, with selectable Power and Economy modes. A seven-speed K-ATOMiCS automatic transmission drives the rear axle, and wet multiple-disc brakes on all four wheels double as a retarder rated at 1,750 kW for steep, sustained descents.
