Caterpillar, a leading manufacturer of construction and mining equipment, has announced the launch of its next generation 30-tonne size class excavators - the 330 and 330 GC - with several key features including greater operating efficiency, lower fuel and maintenance costs, and improved operator comfort compared to previous models.

The new excavators offer unique combinations of features designed to match contractors’ productivity and cost targets, said a statement from Caterpillar.

Delivering high-production performance, the new Cat 330 features standard integrated Cat Connect technology and the most power and lift capacity of the two models. The result is maximum productivity at the lowest cost.

The new Cat 330 GC combines the right balance of productivity features with reduced fuel consumption and maintenance costs. The result is high reliability and low-cost-per-hour performance, it stated.

According to Caterpillar, the new Cat 330 model has the industry’s highest level of standard factory-equipped technology to boost productivity. Integrated Cat Connect Technology increases operating efficiency by up to 45 per cent over traditional grading operations.

The standard Cat Grade with 2D system provides guidance for depth, slope, and horizontal distance to grade through the standard touchscreen monitor, making operators more accurate, it stated.

The system is readily upgradable to Cat Grade with Advanced 2D or Cat Grade with 3D. Standard Grade Assist automates boom, stick, and bucket movements so operators can effortlessly stay on grade with single-lever digging, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
