Over · Komatsu D155Overzicht
The Komatsu D155 is a large crawler dozer with an operating weight of 40,506 kg and an engine output of 354 hp, placing it firmly in the upper tier of the heavy dozer class. It has been continuously produced since 1979, giving it one of the longer production histories in its segment. With a blade capacity of 9.4 m3, the D155 is engineered for high-volume earthmoving tasks where pushing force and cycle efficiency are primary requirements.
Typische toepassingenWaar deze machine wordt gebruikt
Machines in this weight and power class are typically deployed on large-scale civil infrastructure projects, mining site preparation, dam construction, and major land-clearing operations. The D155 is suited to work where substantial material volumes must be moved efficiently across extended shifts. It is also used in reclamation and levelling applications where its blade capacity and tractive effort provide a clear productivity advantage over lighter dozer classes.
Tweedehandsmarkt inspectieWat je moet controleren voordat je koopt
Inspection of any used large crawler dozer should begin with a full undercarriage assessment, as track components including rails, rollers, idlers, and sprockets represent a significant portion of reconditioning cost in this class and wear rate is directly tied to the abrasiveness of the material the machine has worked in. Engine oil analysis records and hydraulic fluid condition are important indicators of internal wear history. Buyers should verify blade condition for cracks, wear plate thickness, and cutting edge wear. Ripper assembly pivot points and tine wear should be checked if the machine is equipped with a rear ripper. Service records, any available inspection reports, and documented maintenance intervals are meaningful indicators of how a unit has been managed over its working life. Machines with documented single-owner or fleet-managed histories typically present lower reconditioning risk than those with fragmented ownership records.

The D155 competes directly with the Caterpillar D8 and the Dressta TD-25, all three occupying the same broad segment of large crawler dozers above 35,000 kg operating weight. Against the Caterpillar D8, the D155 is frequently cross-shopped on the basis of parts and service network preference, regional dealer coverage, and operator familiarity rather than on specification differences alone, as both machines operate in comparable power and blade-capacity ranges. The Dressta TD-25 appeals to buyers with a preference for lower acquisition cost positioning or specific regional supply chains, while the D155 holds a reputation for robust drivetrain longevity within its class. Within the D155 segment, the attributes that move a unit higher or lower in its price band are accumulated operating hours, undercarriage wear condition, blade configuration and type, the presence of factory or aftermarket attachments such as rippers or push plates, geographic service history, and overall mechanical condition including engine and hydraulic serviceability.
