Adaptive Control System
A patented valve that maximizes performance by intelligently adjusting the hydraulic flow, thus allowing every movement of the machine to be controlled by distributing energy exactly where and when it is needed while preventing loss of power.
Hydraulic hybrid system
Available on the 336F, this plant is based on a hybrid hydraulic rotation system. The kinetic energy generated during swing braking feeds an accumulator preloaded with inert gas, which then releases it directly in the form of hydraulic power, during acceleration in the rotation phase. The on- board calculator (ESP), programmed to lower fuel consumption, manages all the machine’s systems, maximizing energy savings in a wide variety of applications.
- Maximum power even at 1500 rpm
- Up to 50% more material moved per litre consumed compared to the 336D
- 20% reduction in power consumption compared to the standard 336F
- Reduction of emissions
- High acoustic comfort
- Return on investment after 3000 hours
Wheel Loaders
Continuously Variable Transmission
Cat continuously variation transmission is based on a hydraulic pump and a variator unit that ensure smooth and continuous variation of the transmission ratio between the engine speed and the speed of the machine.
- 25% reduction in power consumption
- More traction and power, even at low speed (between 1,250 and 1,650 rpm)
- Faster work cycles
- During deceleration energy is recovered and reused to increase efficiency
- Speed and braking capacity can be modulated almost to the same level as an automobile
- Twice the length of time between transmission fluid changes
