Excavator is a professional engineering machine with strong professionalism. The market share of Komatsu excavators is based on the top five in the world. The market supply of Komatsu excavator is very complicated. The price difference between the same product is huge. The quality is also uneven. Parts suppliers are also mixed. How to buy high-quality and low-cost accessories has always been the most troublesome problem for accessory buyers. We have 10 years of experience telling you the issues you should pay attention to when purchasing excavator parts:

1, Is OEM really an OEM ?

The OEM in the general market is actually a aftermarket product. Many Chinese suppliers generally regard the aftermarket products as OEMs. OEMs, in the strict sense, are foundry factory products. There are few such products. Because there is no brand identity, the purchaser cannot judge the aftermarket and OEM.

2, How big is the difference between the original and the aftermarket ?

In general, the quality and use value of the original product meets the requirements, original product usually is high quality. At the same time, current production technology is very developed in China. The aftermarket can basically be replaced with the original product. However, there are many manufacturers in the deputy factory, which result in a large quality gap due to different materials or production processes. For example: 702-21-57400 solenoid valve, the cheapest aftermarket on the market is about USD 50.00. However, as far as we know, these low-priced products will be damaged if they are not used for three months. Products with a general price of around 80~90 US dollars will meet the requirements. The price around 130 and around 190, the quality is even better. The original product is estimated to be between 300 and 400 dollars. Therefore, the purchase of the actual unit price of more than 80 US dollars can generally meet the needs.

3, What is the significance of the part number ?

Senior buyers are more clear, when you purchase Komatsu excavator parts, you usually need to provide the part number. As mentioned earlier, 702-21-57400. Each excavator has thousands of parts, and Komatsu has at least a hundred types of excavators. We need to accurately judge an accessory, which usually requires a part number to judge. At the same time, some of the products of the deputy factory have no detailed technical information. In general, you need to check the picture to avoid buying the wrong product.

4, I have to find a factory, he can give me the cheapest price

According to the general understanding, factory order can reduce the intermediate links, and save costs. Then we can be responsible and say that the factory does not necessarily give you the best price. First of all, most Chinese manufacturers do not have strong marketing channels, and they all rely on distributors and traders. Secondly, the best price is based on the large quantity. In general, the volume of traders can get more favorable prices at the factory; Third, the fully competitive market leads to uneven manufacturers. You need to spend a lot of time and cost to find these manufacturers, and at the same time go through a lot of trial and error to eliminate these manufacturers, which is often not worthwhile. Finally, the repair parts damaged by the excavator tend to be numerous and complex, while the general factory can only produce one or a type of accessories. When choosing a factory at this time, it often costs a lot of time.

5, Brand value

As we said above, the supply market for Komatsu excavator parts is very complicated. It is especially important to find a stable, quality supplier. How to judge the quality of the supplier? We need to know the brand of the supplier. Through the competition in the market, suppliers with low quality often have very low prices. At the same time, the product warranty is very low, or the promised warranty can not be achieved. Through the baptism of the market , good suppliers will form a unique brand through the quality of their services.

6, Professional

A good supplier is often reflected on its professionalism. We know that the excavator product is complex and the technical requirements are very high. Such as: computer board and display, these are with programs, very professional. Such as hydraulic pumps, these products need to be installed and debugged. If the engine injector is purchased, it is necessary to check the engraving number and the engine model, and the conversion between the different parts of the manufacturer (Bosch, Denso etc). Suppliers with strong technical capabilities can help solve these problems.

In the end, when you buy Komatsu excavator parts, you must find a supplier with strong brand support. At the same time, don’t fall into the misunderstanding of low prices, so as not to buy unqualified products.
