Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Hi everybody,
I would like to show you some pics of my Komatsu WA500-6 from Fumotec http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...3963326638.jpg http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...6633353663.jpg http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...3566306234.jpg I will add some more picture from the set up. |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Nice to see one of these new machines on the forum. What do you think of the WA500-6? I haven't heard very much about these wheel loaders, nor have we seen any real video footage of them operating. I'm surprised there aren't more builds or threads showing them off!

Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
It'd be great to see some video of it, if you have it? :cool:

Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Hi,
at the moment I have only one video form the begining. 1. Test You can see the wheelloader is playing with 3 x 1.5L full water-bottles. No ballast at the back. No problem at all. I will do some additional video, but the weather was sooo bad. |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
I will start at the beginning: I ordered the Komatsu Nov. 2012 and four weeks later I received a well packed carton with all the parts in it.
http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...3862366538.jpg The manual is give in .pdf-form and need to be printed. The metall parts are made of cold rolled steel. http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...3761396531.jpg and at the most parts it is spot-welded. All weldings are good connected even you can finde holes, which need to be filled later before painting. http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...6630613930.jpg |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Very nice machine and love the detail! Looks very sturdy and operates great. Thanks for sharing.

Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Nice piece of equipment looks like it is well made
|
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Impressive lifting capacity! It seems to handle the water bottles, even without the hyrdaulics running at max flow.
|
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Do want!!! This is my next purchase as soon as all the stars align!

Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
To work so easy you need a good hydraulic system.
The hydraulik pump is from Jung-Fluid. In industry the pump is running with 80 - 100 BAR. http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...3863626464.jpg Here in the Komatsu the system is tested up to 30 BAR. I run 18 - 20 BAR. The hydraulic cylinders come ready mounted. http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...3730353237.jpg |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
I forgot to ask. I've not seen a photo of the Fumotec unit next to another model for size reference. I know it's larger than the 966 WDC but still haven't seen a size relevance photo. If you have a Tamiya truck or something common like that, and get a minute to snap a photo, I'd love to see this.

Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
FYI sizes:
WA500 Länge: 705mm Breite: 230mm Höhe: 270mm Wedico 966: Length: app. (612mm) 24.09", Width: app. (211mm) 8.31", Height: app. (250mm)9.84" So the WA500 looks about 10% larger than the 966. Not sure how much heavier, but I suspect it is a lot... The 966 is only about 8kg(17lb). I am sure some one can dig up a picture or two... Interesting. AP |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Weight : 13 kg
In original: The WA500-6 is used in small minings. It's not a machine to use on normal working ground. CU |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
I just checked the bucket 248 mm outside.

Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Hello,
As wanted I did a snapshot of the wheelloader and a truck. It´s my 1:12 Faun L908SA 6x6 trialtruck. http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...3366633666.jpg http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...6132656364.jpg So you see the Komatsu is a little bit bigger than a normal wheel loader which can be found at a building yard. |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Thanks for the photo. That Trials truck looks like a good time!
|
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Looks like an awesome model, nice build
|
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
thanks, yes the FAUN is a good time.
Yesterday I started to create an area to run my gardentrial-competition on next sunday. In the past I did this by hand, now I used my Komatsu. I did some video, looking forward to upload to youtube. |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
Hello everybody,
until the videos are available on youtube I would like to show you more details from inside the FUMOTEC. Four brushless outrunners are doing the job of driving. http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...3366333163.jpg Every motor is controlled by a single robbe roxy. The four controller are connected via double y-cable at one chanel. Each motor has around 100w power. They find there place of working in the axles. http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/al...6530613030.jpg |
Re: Komatsu WA500-6 by Fumotec
The videos of my yesterday action are online.
They are a little bit long, but I didn´t want to cut, so this is real live without any palliation. (I found a new word in dictionary :) ) Driving school Part 01 Driving school Part 02 |
