TARGET PAYLOAD FROM 142 TO 155 TONS FOR NEW TRUCK
The Caterpillar 785D Mining Truck incorporates new features to boost performance and reliability, reduce engine emissions and enhance safety. The improvements also focus on component commonality to keep parts stocking and maintenance simple. The 785D target payload ranges from 142 to 155 tons (129 to 141 metric tons) depending on the specific configuration.
The Cat 3512C HD engine maintains fuel efficiency, delivers 1,348 net horsepower (1005 kW) and is compliant with Tier II emissions standards. The engine is capable at altitudes up to 14,000 feet (4267 metres) with no derate. Caterpillar also introduces the X body with the 785D. The X body provides mine specific options (e.g. liners, rail caps, sideboards, etc.). The new body also provides greater volume – 111 cubic yards (85 cubic metres) versus 102 cubic yards (78 cubic metres) for the dual slope body. Additional body choices are Mine Specific Body (MSD II), gateless coal body, and dual slope.
