These have land reclamation, grading, construction, demolition, agriculture, snow removal, trenching and other applications.
New Cat HD MP buckets help to optimize SSL and CTL versatility when digging, dozing, clamping, scraping, back dragging, grading and leveling. Designed specifically for next generation Cat 250 – 285 models, eight different bucket options offer widths ranging from 1883 to 2340 mm (74 to 92 in) and capacities of 0,53 to 0,68 m3 (0.7 to 0.88 yd3). These new HD MP buckets deliver up to 21% higher capacity versus similar standard MP buckets.
Designed for larger Cat 270 to 285 XE models equipped with rear auxiliary hydraulics, the new Cat Retrieval Winch allows operators to self-retrieve or recover a stuck machine due to challenging terrain or adverse underfoot conditions. Featuring an industrial planetary gear and hydraulic winch motor, this new winch offers a rated line pull of 8165 kgf (18,000 lbf). The design minimally impedes rear camera view to give operators maximum visibility to machine clearances and recovery operations.
Designed for use with Cat CTLs with rear auxiliary hydraulics, the new Cat Ripper/Scarifier breaks up, loosens or conditions the surface layer of compacted soil. It is ideal for scarifying tree roots, fields and small to medium rocks, and, when paired with the Cat Smart Dozer Blade and Cat Smart Grader Blade, it enhances grading in construction applications. Integrated with advanced joystick controls, it features dedicated operational control.
New Cat Bite-Limiter Mulchers for 6- to 10-tonne Cat mini excavators deliver high-performance cutting and mulching of vegetation, saplings and undergrowth from overgrown agricultural and forested terrain. With ribs on the rotor limiting material penetration of the chisel teeth to prevent stalling, the new mulcher quickly reduces trees and shrubs into mulched material, making it ideal for environmental maintenance and land reclamation. Smaller bits provide a finer finish product for fast decomposition.
Designed for use with 5- to 10-tonne Cat mini excavators, the new tilt rotate system (TRS) Cat Grading Beams deliver precise grading and leveling capabilities, especially for 2D and 3D applications when used with TRS6 and TRS8 attachments. Available 1500 mm (59.5 in) and 2000 mm (78.7 in) widths allow these grading beams to offer efficient, high-performance grading with 360˚ of rotation and up to 40˚ angling capability. TRS vibration combines with machine down pressure to effectively compact material for a quality surface finish.
New pin-on Cat Tilting Ditch Cleaning buckets feature tilting angle flexibility for digging trenches, slopes and other applications where up to 45˚ digging angles are required. With widths and capacities ranging from 1200 to 1500 mm (48 to 60 in) and 360 to 460 L (12.9 to 16.4 ft3) respectively, bucket designs are available for next generation 307.5, 308, 309 and 310 mini excavators as well as center-pivot and side shift backhoe loaders. A two-cylinder bucket design creates equal left/right tilt speed and equal hold force. The horizontally positioned two tilt cylinders are connected to one auxiliary for precise, synchronized movement of both cylinders. Source
