CRAWLER DOZERS
John Deere
Caterpillar
Liugong North America
The John Deere 650K SmartGrade crawler dozer
is integrated with a Topcon 3D-MC2 Grade
Control System to improve job-site accuracy and
work quality by delivering precise grading performance, while eliminating vulnerable external
masts and cables. Boasting a 104-horsepower
Final Tier diesel engine, the dozer is available
in multiple track configurations, including low
ground pressure (LGP) or extra long track (XLT).
The D6T Dozer features a new, fully automatic
transmission to optimize performance, ease
operation and achieve fuel savings of up to 20
percent in heavy work, and as much as 30 percent in light work and finish grading applications.
It can also be equipped with the full range of Cat
Connect GRADE for Dozers technologies. Cat
GRADE with Slope Assist is now standard on the
D6T, providing basic blade positioning assistance
without the need for added hardware or a GPS
signal.
Powered by QSF 3.8 Tier 4 Final turbo-charged
Cummins engines, the new Dressta TD-8S and
TD-9S dozers deliver 94 horsepower and 113
horespower, respectively. Both are equipped
with Rexroth dual-path, hydrostatic drive
systems that transmit full power to both tracks in
all conditions for smooth speed changes, pivot
turns and counter rotation. A strong, six-way
C-frame is complemented by a robust undercarriage available in two options - the standard
LT (long-track) version, and the LGP (low ground
pressure) for use in swampy or muddy terrain.
PIPELAYERS
Volvo CE
Caterpillar
The PL3005E, with a Volvo D8J Tier 4 Final
engine, offers 241 horspower and a tipping
capacity of 120,000 pounds, with 5 percent
greater fuel efficiency versus its predecessor
model. In addition, its excavator-based design,
improvements to the Load Management System,
enhanced telematics, and pipe-carrying and
protection options, make the PL3005E the most
productive pipelayer ever offered from Volvo in
this size class.
Long the industry standard for powerful
performance, reliability and durability, the PL87
Pipelayer features a new roll-over protection
structure that provides added safety for both
open and enclosed operator stations. Also new,
the purpose-built cab is now pressurized and optimized for operator comfort and convenience.
An integrated, all-Cat power train has differential
steering and an electronically controlled hydraulic system that places total control of lifting
functions into one single joystick.
