Without pinging or your direct involvement, KOMTRAX can keep you informed of machine location changes or notable machine health issues. While KOMTRAX is keeping you informed of notable events, it’s seamlessly gathering important data such as working effort and idle time that can help you, coach operators, to improve efficiencies and get more work done faster while burning less fuel.
BENEFITS
KOMTRAX gives you the knowledge to empower you to make fact-based, strategic business decisions regarding your machines and their operations. This pays off in increased productivity and availability, proactive support, smarter management, and much more.

KOMTRAX 5.0 is the most sophisticated KOMTRAX to date and is standard equipment on Komatsu Tier 4 models. Some features are specific to certain models. Contact your Komatsu Distributor for more information.
BENEFITS
KOMTRAX 5.0 is designed to provide you data that increases your peace of mind.
You’ll be confident:
Knowing that your operators are taking full advantage of the efficiencies designed into the machines. Knowing that the machines' Tier 4 technologies are working seamlessly doing their job removing soot and nitrous oxides from the exhaust.
FEATURES
In addition to the information reported in earlier versions of KOMTRAX, KOMTRAX 5.0 includes:
The one variable that many underestimate in determining fuel efficiency and productivity is the operator. An operator who is focused on improvement can get the same amount of work done in less time and with less fuel than an operator who isn’t. Used purposely, KOMTRAX becomes a very efficient operator coaching tool.
How do you use KOMTRAX as a coaching tool? Very simply you use KOMTRAX data to benchmark key efficiency indicators such as idle time, time in economy mode and hydraulic relief time and then set goals that encourage your operators to maximize production. Once benchmarked, KOMTRAX supplies the future measurements that become the feedback mechanism.
BENEFITS
KOMTRAX data can help you lower your Owning and Operating costs by reducing fuel expenses and eliminating unproductive machine hours that drive depreciation and repair and maintenance costs.
Features
KOMTRAX includes a variety of reports and records all designed to help you keep your Komatsu machines efficient and healthy. Depending on the model these can include:
Fleet Reports
Machine History Reports
Status Summaries
Location Summaries
Energy Savings
Fuel Consumption
Attachment Usage
Travel Records
Working Load Records
Caution Records
And More...
CONTROL YOUR OWNING AND OPERATING COSTS
Reducing Idle time is the most actionable, proactive way to control owning and operating costs. Each hour's reduction of idle time reduces fuel burn, extends maintenance, and slows depreciation.
