Proven Reliability
The C7.1 CAT® Engine offers high power density with a combination of proven electronic, fuel, and air circuits. It features an electric fuel priming pump, a fuel water separator, and a secondary filtration system. The rigorous design of the components and the results of the machine validation processes result in unprecedented reliability and availability.
Long Lifespan
The transmission and extra-robust axles support extreme applications. The powershift automatic transmission (5F/3R) is equipped with long-lasting components. The full-flow hydraulic filtration system with an additional filtration loop improves the reliability of the hydraulic circuit and the lifespan of the components. A next-generation equipment pump increases its flow at a lower engine speed and improves hydraulic response.
Work Comfortably in the Brand New Cabin
Seat and suspension easily adjustable for better driver comfort. It is available with three levels of equipment and can be equipped with a 4-point harness (kit). Extra space to increase legroom and adjustable seat controls for optimal driver comfort and performance. The automatic air conditioning system maintains the desired freshness in the cabin. The new dashboard and high-resolution touch screen(s) inside the cabin are easy to use, intuitive, and user-friendly. Soundproofing, seals, and viscous cabin mounts reduce noise and vibrations to provide a quieter working environment. The standard manual measuring unit steering wheel allows for very high precision, for maximum comfort and accuracy. An optional electrohydraulic manipulator steering circuit (which replaces the standard manual measuring unit steering wheel) is also available in many regions. The new generation anti-roll control functions as a damper, allowing for a smoother ride for the driver on difficult terrains.
Intelligent Machine for Efficient Operation
Cat standard technologies designed to monitor, manage, and improve construction work. - Cat Payload with Assist precisely measures the weight *** of bucket payloads. Data is displayed in real-time to improve productivity and loading accuracy with manual guidance. - Product Link™ wirelessly connects the machine to the office, allowing access to essential production and health information needed to make timely and factual decisions for better business management. - The new Autodig system allows the operator to fully automate bucket loading to improve fill factors and loading time. - Automatic tire adjustment promotes good loading technique, significantly reducing tire slippage and wear. Optional Cat Advanced Payload with Assist*: - The automatic tipping assistance function automates final bucket loading to meet the planned loading time. - List management, job site integration, and extended scale improvement functions help manage and improve productivity and operational profitability. Optional subscription to the Cat Productivity application provides access to detailed and comprehensive information to help manage and improve the productivity and profitability of your operations. *Not legally approved for commercial use.
Get Better Energy Efficiency And Better Productivity
New Autodig components with automatic definition tires for high and uniform bucket fill factors offer up to 10% higher productivity compared to the previous Cat model. With its five-speed transmission and lock-up torque converter, the powertrain allows for smooth gear changes, quick acceleration, and uphill speed, conducive to improved performance and energy efficiency. Single clutch and gear change between stops for fast acceleration and speed on slopes. The Z-bar linkage provides high ground breakout force. The optimized Z-bar linkage* provides parallel lift capacity for precise control of the work tool. Performance Series buckets use a system approach to balance bucket shape with linkage capabilities, resulting in higher fill factors and better material retention compared to other buckets of the same rated capacity. Application profiles allow for machine settings optimization for different applications at the push of a button. Work supports enable operators to improve and optimize their skills. The engine idle shutdown system significantly reduces idle times, total hours, and fuel consumption. The deeply integrated engine, powertrain, and hydraulic circuit offer unmatched productivity and energy efficiency. Differential locks are engaged on the fly, improving traction and thus enhancing productivity, reducing tire scraping, and consequently lowering operating costs. With the Fusion™ quick coupler, the operator can change buckets and components without leaving the cab, speeding up the transition between tasks. **Configurations and optional equipment may vary by region and must comply with Caterpillar's payload policy. Consult your Caterpillar dealer or representative for further information.
Security Features
The rear camera increases visibility at the back of the machine to allow you to work safely and confidently. Access to the cabin with a wide door, remote door opening option, and inclined steps add solid stability. The windshield, extending from the floor to the ceiling, the large mirrors with integrated blind spot mirrors, and the rear camera provide excellent panoramic visibility. Computerized monitoring center with multiple warning indicators. Monitored seat belt is provided as standard and can be upgraded with an optional external indicator. The optional 360° visibility system allows the driver to monitor what is happening around the machine at all times. Optional Cat Detect radar technology sensitizes to the environment by monitoring the work environment and sending alerts to drivers in case of hazards. Optional access lighting and access lighting system for maintenance under the hood provide illuminated access to the machine and daily controls, even in the dark.
Specially Designed Configurations
Specific versions for each application directly from the factory for optimized performance and longer lifespan in the most challenging applications, including: - Models for the industry and waste sector have the necessary protections and reinforcements to work in transfer stations, recycling depots, scrap yards, and demolition sites. - The model for the forestry industry increases lifting and tilting capacities for efficient and productive handling of logs and wood chips in paper mills, wood pellet plants, and sawmills. - The model for the steel industry is designed for the harsh working environment of steel mills and slag handling applications, and incorporates an additional level of safety.
