The brand new Cat 992 wheel loader units a brand new normal by providing as much as 32 % better productiveness. This new massive mining loader reduces upkeep prices by as a lot as 10 % and presents as much as 48 % better payload-per-fuel effectivity than the sooner mannequin 992K.

Powered by the brand new Cat C32B engine with U.S. EPA Tier 4 Last/EU Stage V and Tier 2 equal emission engine choices, the brand new 992 meets the demand for high-production tools with better payloads. Powertrain design enhancements to the transmission, axles and ultimate drive, together with the brand new engine, ship a 20 % longer interval for deliberate part alternative. 

Providing each standard- and high-lift configurations, the 992 delivers the bottom cost-per-ton when paired with fleets of Cat 775, 777 and 785 vans. Normal-lift payload capacities attain 23.1 tonnes (25.5 tons) for quarry face functions and 27.2 tonnes (30 tons) for unfastened materials dealing with, whereas high-lift capacities attain 20.4 tonnes (22.5 tons) and 24.5 tonnes (27 tons) in respective functions. 

Extra productive and environment friendly

A brand new Z-bar linkage optimized for efficiency, and enhancements to rimpull and breakout power, ship better machine capability and effectivity. The brand new 992 has demonstrated in discipline testing as much as 48 % better payload-per-fuel effectivity in functions the place a four-pass match to 90.7 tonne (100-ton) vans was achieved, versus 5 passes with the 992K. The highly effective and environment friendly 992 supplies as much as 9.5 % extra rimpull throughout digging and as much as 20 % extra breakout power, growing productiveness. 

The brand new Cat 992 wheel loader options an on-demand throttle mode to optimize payload-per-fuel effectivity with out slowing manufacturing. New normal automated retarding controls disable the impeller clutch, allow the lockup clutch, and use the implement and fan pumps retarding to sluggish the machine on grade. The accessible superior automated retarding controls with engine brake characteristic presents full management of the loader’s pace on grade to keep up a desired maintain pace. 

Automating important digging cycle parts, non-obligatory New Autodig Elements additional enhance productiveness and effectivity whereas decreasing tire put on. To cease slippage earlier than it occurs, a tire slip prevention characteristic reduces rimpull earlier than the tires are set and will increase rimpull when downward power is utilized to the tire. The tire set operate detects pile contact and mechanically lifts towards the pile to set the tires and improve accessible traction. The carry stall prevention characteristic mechanically manages rimpull in-dig to forestall hydraulic stall whereas lifting by means of the face, so the 992 spends much less time within the pile. 

Non-compulsory new Payload Overload Prevention permits for productiveness and effectivity enhancements by offering a big sufficient bucket for use to realize goal pass-match throughout a variety of fabric densities with out the chance of overload. With the overload worth absolutely adjustable primarily based on the goal payload, this characteristic may be configured to mechanically cease or sluggish the carry operate when the overload worth is exceeded. 

Enhancements to the setback and strike airplane angles, an extended bucket ground, and a stronger and bigger backside part improve the bucket fill issue by 10 %. The taller aspect plate with stage high floor helps to enhance visibility past the bucket edge to the fabric pile. 

Out there Operator Teaching empowers operators to exceed productiveness targets by measuring and offering suggestions to show correct working methods. Amongst different working methods, this characteristic exhibits the best way to correctly shorten journey, keep away from unracking in-dig, enter the pile with a stage bucket, cut back the dump top, and use the kickout.
