Type WA-3 has been highly reputed by a wide range of users since it was put on the market in 1993 but is gradually losing its competitiveness due to recent active model change of competitors and new participation of other manufacturers in the market. In such circumstances, it is strongly required to develop a new product that matches the needs of the new age, causes a great sensation in the world, and excels the reputed rival machines not only in Japan but also in North America and Europe.

KOMATSU WA100-5 WHEEL The product planning of this development was started in 2001, where we encountered the difficult problems of completing the development in quite a short time and starting up the overseas production earlier than in Japan because the overseas affiliated companies (KA and KOHAG) had to start production at latest 2003 in order to meet the Tier II emissions regulation.

This success seems attributable to that development department, production department and the overseas affiliated companies in union aimed at the optimization of the whole.
