Komatsu brings WX11 to underground hard-rock market
Komatsu Mining has introduced to the global market the new WX11 LHD, an 11-tonne loader that, it says, offers best-in-class breakout force and best-in-class payload helping to maximise productivity and provide a lower total cost of ownership.

Developed through a close partnership between our experienced team and our long-time customers, this product reflects a shared commitment to design excellence.
