Cat® Introduces New L Series Medium Wheel Loaders

Cat 966L Medium Loader for Efficient Operation

Inheritance classics, efficient production of the same strain

The new L-Series loaders inherit the long-term advantages of the Cat loader - efficient, reliable, and durable. They are more powerful and fuel-efficient than previous generation models. The Cat ACERT engine in the L series has been carefully improved and optimized to significantly improve the performance and responsiveness of the machine. At the same time, the L-Series has added a lock-up clutch, which can improve the efficiency of handling operations, as well as the speed of travel on the slope, and reduce fuel consumption. In addition, the L-Series employs dramatically improved driveline and hydraulic systems, operator safety and special operating conditions, a proven Z-bar linkage, Cat Performance Series buckets, and numerous optional features such as automatic Differential function system, improved anti-skid control system and Cat intelligent technology.

Embarrassing fuel efficiency

The original design of the L series was based on the improvement of fuel efficiency. The Cat ACERT engine used in the L series models can provide power and torque as needed; the improved power train, hydraulic system, cooling system, and electronics system can intelligently reduce the average engine speed and reduce the system heat load, resulting in significant fuel efficiency Promote. In addition, the L series is also equipped with an economic model that saves fuel while reducing the impact on productivity. In addition:

Axle upgrades reduce parasitic power and enhance active lubrication. At the same time, you can choose to install the automatic differential function without driver intervention, not only to increase traction, but also reduce tire wear.

A load-sensing hydraulic system is used to provide hydraulic flow on demand for quick and smooth hydraulic system response and control.

On-demand fans further increase fuel efficiency and reduce noise levels.

The engine idle management and engine idle stop system can reduce the engine speed or stop the engine after a preset idle time, which not only saves fuel, reduces the noise level, but also reduces the number of invalid working hours of the machine, thereby helping to prolong Maintenance cycle, and extended service life.

With wisdom and change, smart technology

With the help of Cat Intelligent Technology, the new L Series is easy enough to handle common domestic conditions. Cat Intelligence System as the equipment manager's "eye of the eye" can understand the location, hours, fuel consumption and other data anytime, anywhere to help equipment managers to improve fleet efficiency and reduce operating costs.

Mines, quarries or port shipping operations require short cycle times and accurate loading. Overloading, underloading, and waiting for reweighing have a direct impact on production and profits. The Cat Smart Weighing System helps the operator to accurately understand the weight of the load and shorten the loading time. It is easy to view the daily production, the number of buckets, and the number of cycles in the cab. With the help of the Cat Intelligence System, daily loading information can be With the VisionLink platform at a glance, it is easy to understand the production of the entire fleet.

How comfortable and how to experience the upgrade

Comfortable operation is crucial to the efficiency of the driver. The L-Series cab features a roll-over and fall protection system that provides unmatched comfort, driving visibility and safety. At the same time, the cab vibration damping design reduces vibration and noise levels in the cab, creating a quiet and smooth driving experience for the operator.

For routine maintenance, the L-Series hoods can be opened electrically and in one piece, with side and rear access doors, and daily level checkpoints and fuel injection points are at your fingertips. Most routine inspections and maintenance tasks, such as regular oil sampling, can be easily done on the ground. (This article comes from Caterpillar)
