Cat® Electric Rope Shovels can load more material — more efficiently and more cost-effectively — than any other loading tool on the market. They combine immense payload capability with low maintenance requirements and high reliability to deliver the lowest cost-per-ton loading solution for long-life mines. With an operating life of 120,000 hours, they are a viable option for mines with estimated lives that meet or exceed a time frame of 20 years.
Support to maximize life — and profitability
The investment in an electric rope shovel is a long-term partnership. With the support of the global Cat dealer network along with Caterpillar’s technical resources, you can expect a long, productive life from your rope shovel. We help maximize availability and increase your return on investment through:
Cat® Electric Rope Shovels combine immense payload capability with low maintenance requirements and high reliability to deliver the lowest cost-per-ton loading solution for long-life mines. A number of standard and optional features are available to take efficiency and productivity levels even higher. Please note that not all of the following features are available on all models. Contact your dealer for more information.
Our LatchFree™ Dipper System addresses the leading cause of rope shovel downtime, replacing the maintenance-intense latch assembly with a strong steel link assembly. The system’s unique arrangement makes it possible to locate the components on the dipper back. In addition, the components are designed and tested for a service interval of 3,000 hours. With the elimination of the maintenance associated with the latch assembly and an extended service interval, your rope shovel will spend more time loading, ultimately reducing your total cost of ownership.
The Operator Assist Technology Package includes enhancements that provide operator assist and machine self-protection without sacrificing productivity. Enhanced Motion Control protects the machine from operational practices that cause damage by intelligently controlling how motions are allowed to operate under certain conditions. And Machine Self Protection, a control system that detects and avoids machine self-collisions and, if a collision is imminent, arrests the machine motion to prevent or mitigate the collision.
Engineered for the future, the Cat® Integrated Technology Package fully incorporates Cat Electronics and provides the platform to support technology expansion. The package features six standard technologies, including Machine Health, Vibration Monitoring, Cat Electronics, Payload Management, Bearing Temperature Monitor and Cycle Segmentation. The enhancements support higher productivity, improved reliability and increased security. The technology upgrade also provides a gateway for seamless integration of Cat MineStar™ Solutions.
The cab in Cat Electrical Rope Shovels includes updates that make operators safer, more comfortable and more productive.
Key retrofits and upgrades to your Cat Electric Rope Shovel can help maximize your value. Thanks to feedback from customers, technicians and operators, Caterpillar makes continuous improvements to machine components to help improve uptime, reduce service and extend life, which help lower total cost of ownership. Talk to your Cat dealer for more information on these and other upgrades that could improve your operation and potentially lower your cost per ton.
