| Cat D11T Track-Type Tractor  The Cat D11T Track-Type Tractor delivers reliable performance, long life and lowest-cost-per-ton production in mining and other high-volume dozing applications. The new machine also is offered in an optional CarryDozer configuration (D11T CD) to maximize productivity when moving large loads over long distances or up steep slopes. Both the D11T and D11T CD offer enhancements for the operator—such as a hydraulically actuated access ladder and a two-camera Work Area Vision System (WAVS). A Cat C32 engine provides clean, fuel-efficient power; a new cab improves comfort and productivity; and advanced electronics make the D11T easier to operate and service.The D11T and D11T CD incorporate many new and updated features to accommodate operators and technicians. Getting on and off the machine is easier than ever, thanks to a hydraulically actuated access ladder, available as an option. An optional rear walkway with a 505-gallon (1987-liter) fuel tank makes it easier to clean rear and side windows and to access the rear lights for maintenance. WAVS, an optional rear-vision camera system, improves visibility and can be ordered with one or two cameras. An 850-hp (634-kW) Cat C32 Engine powers the D11T and D11T CD. It is a large-displacement engine with 21 percent torque rise for responsive power needed when dozing tough materials. The engine features ACERT Technology, a Cat emissions-reduction solution that optimizes performance, life and fuel economy, while meeting U.S. EPA Tier 2 and EU Stage II emissions regulations. System-matched to a high-efficiency torque converter and electronically controlled transmission, this reliable engine will provide years of dependable service in demanding conditions. Operators work productively in the T-Series cab, field-proven on the D8T, D9T and D10T. The work environment is spacious, well-ventilated and designed to minimize noise and vibration. It offers a clear, panoramic view to the job site with 30 percent more glass area. A standard Cat Comfort Seat and adjustable armrests and controls reduce fatigue. An easy-to-read instrument panel keeps the operator informed, and the Advisor Monitoring System delivers other critical information to operators and technicians. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Construction News :: home page |
