Peoria, Illinois - Caterpillar company (NYSE: cat) will launch a new generation of mining trucks at the minexpo 2008 Mining Exhibition in Las Vegas, Nevada. Caterpillar has built a new generation of electric mining trucks by improving safety performance, adopting engines that meet the tier 2 standard, and integrating the latest technology with the existing caterpillar series mining trucks. If the fuel consumption can be reduced to 0.3 to 0.6 liters per hundred kilometers. The electric truck will be unveiled at the exhibition held from September 22 to 24, 2008

stu levenick, President of caterpillar group, said, "when customers ask us to improve the existing mining trucks, we will make a huge investment in each truck on the product line and try our best to expand the production scale to increase the output, so as to meet the needs of customers. By adopting new technology, our trucks are more reliable, easier to maintain and operate, and more in line with environmental protection requirements."

although caterpillar believes that mechanical transmission is the best transmission solution in most cases, we have also listened to customers' opinions and explored various situations where electric transmission is more ideal. As the only manufacturer that can produce mining trucks of 200 tons and above with two transmission modes, caterpillar can provide various models that meet the preferences of all customers

Chris curfman, President of caterpillar global mining department and vice president of caterpillar company, said, "caterpillar produces various mining trucks suitable for climbing, downhill, flat ground or extremely harsh working environment, and now can provide two types of models: electric and mechanical transmission."

at minexpo 2008, caterpillar will launch four new trucks. The 793 series trucks of 240 to 250 tonnage will be provided with two versions of mechanical transmission (793f) and electric (793f AC). Caterpillar's new 345 tonnage 795fac will only provide electric models, while the new 797f mechanical transmission truck will replace the flagship model 797b, but still uphold its 380 to 400 ton target payload. 797f, 795f AC and 777f, which was launched not long ago, will appear at the exhibition. The last models of Caterpillar's new mining truck product line will be the new 785 and 789 mechanical drive trucks. The new version of the truck has been upgraded on the original basis, which can meet customers' requirements for safety, convenience of maintenance, operator comfort and emission standards

curfman said, "our products have a wide variety, and customers can evaluate them one by one, and then choose the best machine suitable for their operation. Caterpillar has unique advantages in this regard. Each machine is carefully designed and built by caterpillar, and caterpillar's agent network provides good service and support. Through this reliable equipment supply source, customers can enjoy higher supply rate and lower cost per ton."

the new generation of trucks will be produced in stages in the next two years. It is expected that caterpillar AC drive models will be put into production by the end of 2010
