2023 Brandt Mineral Processing Crawler Dozers 450K

When our customers sound off, we listen. So when you asked us to turn down the noise and turn up productivity on our 450K Crawler Dozer, we responded with a spacious, redesigned cab that's up to 50% quieter. And a more powerful EPA Interim Tier 4 (IT4)/EU Stage IIIB diesel engine.

Equipment owners and operators will also find lots more to like in the K-Series - such as a hydraulic-driven fan that provides efficient cooling, reduces noise, and conserves precious fuel. And a convenient sealed-switch module for fingertip control of numerous one-of-a-kind features and functions.

Features may include:

• EPA Final Tier 4 (FT4)/EU Stage IV diesel delivers impressive power, torque, and drawbar pull for work in nonattainment areas and unsurpassed productivity.

• Eco mode regulates engine rpm and hydrostatic (HST) transmission system to burn up to 20-percent less fuel in many applications.

• Dual-path HST transmission ensures smooth moves and allows you to push a full load through turns without losing material.

• Innovative V-Cool design provides convenient access to both sides of the coolers for easy cleanout. Hydraulically driven fan runs only as needed, reducing fuel consumption and debris flow through the cores.

• Eco mode maximizes fuel economy without sacrificing performance, automatically adjusting engine rpm and transmission settings based on load.

• Auto-idle helps save fuel by reducing engine speed when the dozer is not moving.

• Accessible, clean-hose routing and sleeve protection for cylinder lines to guard against accidental damage on the jobsite.

• Our “open-architecture” design makes adding a grade-control system as easy as plugging in the components, calibrating, and going to work, whether your preference be Trimble, Leica, or a factory-installed Topcon 3D-MC2 system.

• The in-dash compartment is ideal for permanent placement of a grade-control monitor or as a lockable compartment for storing.

• Overhead radio and storage console includes a 12-volt electrical outlet for powering a cell phone or an iPod®.

• Single lever provides low-effort control of steering, forward/reverse travel, and ground speed. It’s also detented so it doesn’t require an operator’s constant touch or attention, and employs a thumb-actuated travel-speed switch.

• Conveniently located easy-to-read sight gauges for checking fluid levels

• Exhaust filter operation and status are indicated with icons and on-screen displays. The diagnostic monitor also provides easy-to-understand messages that help speed troubleshooting.

• The enhanced multifunction LCD color monitor provides pushbutton access to a wealth of machine info. It also enables you to customize machine settings.

• If a spec is pushed beyond a critical range limit, an alarm will sound and a red warning light activated to unmistakably inform the operator to shut down the machine and investigate the cause.

• Counter rotation boosts productivity by enabling an operator to overcome heavy corner loads and quickly reposition the blade on the go. Provides space-saving spot turns, too.

• Simply set maximum desired ground speed and the power management system automatically maintains peak engine rpm and power efficiency without stalling or shifting.
