Cat Grade grading technology provide the precision and speed required for road construction and maintenance. With Cat Grade, operators can achieve precise grading targets more quickly and in fewer passes by combining automated machine control with advanced guidance, resulting in up to a 50% increase in grading productivity compared to traditional methods.
Cat 2D Grade is ideal for the kind of excavation work so common in residential and commercial projects, making it suitable for earthmoving contractors looking to improve their excavation efficiency and profitability.
Cat Grade with 3D provides real-time satellite positioning guidance for your complex projects. In order to provide Real Time Kinematic (RTK) position guidance in three dimensional space, this system uses two GNSS receivers as well as a correctional data source. When working with complex designs such as those seen on large infrastructure and commercial site projects, full 3D helps operators to maximize productivity and jobsite efficiency. Cat Grade with 3D provides faster and more accurate Rough Grading, regardless of design complexity, as well as Finish Grading with tight tolerances for a 3D GNSS solution.
Cat Lift Assist is an excavator safety feature that quickly calculates the actual load being lifted and compares it to the excavator's rated load capacity. Visual and auditory alerts inform you whether you are within safe working range or need to take action to avoid tipping.
Cat 2D E-fence is an excavator safety feature that keeps an excavator's front components within a predefined work area, preventing dangers on the jobsite. When the front components cross an operator-defined boundary, it automatically stops moving based on the data from position sensors. This safety feature can keep the excavator safe when operating throughout working envelope (above, below, sides, and front).
Cat Assist is a collection of user-friendly on-board technologies designed to offer you a competitive advantage. All skill levels of operators benefit from its increased confidence, speed, and precision while digging, loading, and grading. The result? Better productivity and lower costs.
Through faster and more accurate grading, Cat Assist technology for Cat excavators can help increase productivity on any task. Available as part of Cat Grade, it automates bucket and boom operations to allow for more precise cuts with less labor. Easy-to-use controls allow for quick depth and slope adjustments, and the in-cab display shows the grading process visually. By doing so, operator efficiency can be increased and rework can be decreased
Cat Assist is a combination of simple features that help both experienced and inexperienced operators create smooth surfaces, reduce track slip, optimize blade loads, and reduce steering effort.
With the aid of Steer Assist and Slope Assist, you can reach your goal grade more quickly and with fewer operator inputs. With less effort, less rework, and lower labor and material costs, this technology is now standard on Cat D4-D7 Dozers.
