March 30, 2025 -- Komatsu Ltd. (President and CEO: Hiroyuki Ogawa) will participate in bauma 2025, the world’s leading construction machinery trade fair, taking place in Munich, Germany, from April 7 to April 13.

Held every three years, this trade fair will be where Komatsu showcases its latest efforts in innovation, sustainability, and digitalization, advancing smart and clean future workplaces at construction and mining sites. The following are the key exhibits Komatsu will present at the event. We invite you to explore our latest advancements.

13 new models, including new-generation construction equipment and solutions

Komatsu will exhibit 13 new models, primarily focused on those tailored to meet the market needs in Europe. In particular, Komatsu will exhibit the new-generation hydraulic excavator PC220LCi-12 (bucket capacity 1.2m3), equipped with the latest 3D construction features, and its standard model, PC220LC-12. And the new-generation wheel loader WA485-11 (permanent payload 8,800kg) equipped with newly developed engines, will also be on display.

Alongside its products, Komatsu will highlight the latest digital solutions, including Smart Construction, which enhances jobsite operations through visualization and optimization, and the Fleet Management System for quarry sites (Smart Quarry Site).
