Demo days
Hands-on happenings at Cartersville
During Demo Days, customers learn about equipment and solutions that can help drive efficiencies from preplanning to final closeout
Gaining general insights into how equipment and technology provide value can benefit your operations. The ability to experience a machine for yourself from the operator’s seat takes it to another level. Komatsu gave attendees plenty of both during Demo Days, which took place over three days at Komatsu’s Cartersville Customer Center in Georgia.
More than 40 products, ranging from compact excavators to large construction, demolition, forestry and mining machines, were available for customers to see up close and operate. Representatives from Komatsu and Komatsu affiliates, such as Montabert, Lehnhoff, and Hensley Industries, provided insights on implementing equipment and attachments within jobsite operations.

Komatsu Smart Construction and Smart Quarry representatives set up display areas to provide information on solutions available for jobsite management, such as Smart Construction Remote, Office, Field and Drone, as well as Smart Quarry Site and Smart Quarry Study. My Komatsu representatives also provided information about Komatsu’s central hub for fleet management.
“We have lots of gear to run, but Demo Days is about more than just the gear; it’s about the solutions we can bring to you to aid in your optimization and efficiency from preplanning a project to its finish,” said Peter Robson, Senior Director of Product, Komatsu. “Demo Days gives customers a complete picture of what we have to offer in helping them with equipment and the digital transition of their operations.”
Informative presentations
Each day began with informative presentations about equipment and Smart Construction and Smart Quarry solutions that Komatsu offers to help drive productivity, efficiency and customers’ sustainability goals. Hands-on operation followed, letting customers operate a mix of standard, Intelligent Machine Control (IMC), hybrid and electric machinery in working environments across the 38-acre site.
Customers could operate the new 70-ton Komatsu HD605-10 rigid-frame mechanical haul truck, which offers a tight turning radius designed for easy navigation on narrow haul roads. New solutions included 3D Machine Guidance Flex, which adds the capability to collect as-built data from nearly any machine, such as a scraper, loader or pickup.
“One of the highlights for us during Demo Days is listening to customers because that moves us forward and helps us develop the features and benefits for future machines and solutions,” commented Robson. “We hope customers go back to their businesses with great memories and all their questions answered. It’s great that they take time to come down here, and we thank them and their distributors for making the trip.”
