R2900G
The Cat® R2900G underground loader is designed for high-production, low cost-per-ton loading and tramming in underground mining applications. An operator favorite, it delivers a safe, comfortable ride in a cab equipped with easy-to-use controls and efficiency-boosting features that optimize performance and maximize productivity. Its compact design provides agile performance combined with rugged construction and simplified maintenance to ensure excellent productivity, long life and low operating costs.
SAFETY
- Large window openings to offer excellent visibility in all directions.
- Safer access and egress with anti-skid upper deck surfaces and 3-point access to cab and machine.
- Four corner oil-cooled braking system that provides excellent control, with service brake system actuated by hydraulic pressure and parking brake function that is spring applied and hydraulic released to ensure braking in the event of loss of hydraulic failure.
- Operator Present System, which protects the machine and operator from uncontrolled machine movements, with hydraulic system neutralization and door sensor.
- Safer service with service area located on cold side of engine, bucket control group safety pins, articulation lock and hinged belly guards.
OPERATOR COMFORT & CONTROL
- Optional enclosed design provides fresh, pressurized, temperature-controlled air circulation with air conditioning.
- Optional sound-suppressed ROPS cab for a quiet, secure working environment.
- Controls, levers, switches and gauges positioned to maximize productivity and minimize fatigue.
- Low-effort, pilot-operated joystick implement control with simultaneous lift and tilt functions to optimize operating efficiency.
- Four corner oil-cooled braking system, which provides excellent control.
PRODUCTIVITY & PERFORMANCE
- Loadrite Payload Control System, which gives the operator accurate, real-time updates on payload weights to help them reach maximum bucket capacities while reducing overloading.
- Increased operator efficiency and optimized performance thanks to electronic auto shift transmission that allows operator to choose between manual or auto shift modes.
- Transmission neutralizer that makes it possible for the operator to engage the service brakes and neutralize the transmission, maintaining high engine rpm for full hydraulic flow, enhancing digging and loading functions.
- Fast cycle times thanks to optional ride control system, which gives operators confidence to travel at speeds above 5 km/h (3 mph) during load and carry operations.
- Productivity-boosting hydraulic system, which delivers exceptional digging and lifting forces for fast cycle times, plus high hydraulic flow rates that provide fast response and powerful lift forces.
