A technical plan of the Komatsu D575A-3, drawn in pen, line by line, on 250 g/m² paper, 11 x 17 in (27.9 x 43.2 cm). A physical nib presses into the paper and lays down real ink, stroke after stroke.

The D575A-3 exists as a spec sheet and a photo, everywhere — a drawing anyone can call up on a screen. What doesn't exist everywhere is a copy that can say who traced it, where, and under what serial number.

The Komatsu D575A-3 is a crawler bulldozer built by Komatsu in Japan — commonly cited as the world's largest production bulldozer. In its Super Dozer (SD) configuration, it has an operating weight of 152,600 kg (336,400 lb) and a ground pressure of 160 kPa (23 psi) despite that mass, spread across 9.43 m² of track contact area. It measures 11.71 m (38.4 ft) long, 7.39 m (24.3 ft) wide with the standard blade, and 4.88 m (16 ft) tall. That standard blade holds 69 m³ (90 cu yd); an optional wider blade on the SD variant raises capacity to 96 m³ (125 cu yd). Power comes from a Komatsu SA12V170E V12 diesel engine rated at 860 kW (1,150 hp) — turbocharged, intercooled, and water-cooled. Only 53 machines were built across all D575A variants between 1989 and 2012, including a Super Ripper (SR) configuration with a single-shank ripper reaching 2.06 m (6 ft 9 in) deep.

Each piece is physically plotted by the studio's precision robot in Québec City, using Stabilo® Fineliners and Sakura® Gelly Roll inks on 250 gsm (120 lb) stock — stroke by stroke, never printed. A physical tip presses into the paper and lays down real ink. The result is a tactile, hand-plotted finish — never printed.

Hidden signature

The CodeInk signature glowing under UV light on the back of a plotted piece

Real footage — an early production piece, shown under blacklight.

A signature only UV light reveals

On the back of every piece, in the same pass as the drawing, we plot a signature invisible under normal light — codeink.art, the piece's name and serial number, the year, and Québec. Shine a blacklight on it and it glows.

“A dozer like this moves earth by the tens of thousands of tonnes. Reducing it to a few thousand strokes of ink is its own kind of scale.”

— Carlos, CodeInk.art, Québec

Open production, no duplicates

This piece is plotted after you order it — the pen wears down over the hours it takes to draw, so ink density varies slightly and no two lines close exactly the same way. Nothing is corrected or hidden.

There's no cap on how many are made, but each one is drawn individually, signed, and numbered — never a batch, never printed.
