Kobelco SK 460 8 features overview

Newly designed MCU

Vertical alignment and sealed cover gives better protection from water and dust. Integration via base plate boosts assembly quality. Reliable fixture to base plate.


Engine

Pursuing the “Three E’s”

The perfection of next-generation, network performance. Enhancement: Greater Performance Capacity. New hydraulic circuitry minimizes pressure loss. High-efficiency, electronically controlled Common Rail fuel injection engine. Powerful travel and arm/bucket digging force. Economy: Improved Cost Efficiency. Advanced power plant that reduces fuel consumption. Easy maintenance that reduces upkeep costs. High structural durability and reliability that retain machine value longer. Environment: Features That Go Easy on the Earth. Meets the latest exhaust emission standards. Auto Idle Stop as standard equipment. Noise reduction measures (with improvement of the sound quality) minimize noise and vibration at the source, ensuring quiet operation.


Auto Idle Stop Provided as Standard Equipment

This function saves fuel and cuts emissions by shutting down the engine automatically when the machine is on stand by. It also stops the hourmeter, which helps to retain the machine's asset value.


Automatic Acceleration/Deceleration Function Reduces Engine Speed

Engine speed is automatically reduced when the control lever is placed in neutral, effectively saving fuel and reducing noise and exhaust emissions. The engine quickly returns to full speed when the lever is moved out of neutral.


Low Noise Level and Mild Sound Quality

The electronically controlled common-rail engine has a fuel injection system that runs quietly. Also, the hydraulic pumps have been redesigned to produce a more harmonious sound during pressure relief. In short, the GEOSPEC series meets all requirements cited in latest EU stage II.


Hydraulic and electronic system

Emergency Acceleration (Dial) Permits Continued Operation in the Unlikely Event of Malfunction

If unexpected trouble is experienced with the ITCS mechatronic control system, the machine can still be operated using the emergency acceleration system. Display modes are also automatically relayed to an emergency system so that digging can continue temporarily until a service person arrives to repair the primary system.


Upper Structure

Enhanced Upper Carbody Strength

The structure of the lower portion of the upper frame has been reassessed and the undercover area has been minimized for further strength.
